Wide Awake
What is a Wide Awake Photo Session ?
My intention with photography is to use it as a tool for reconnection.
And not further separation, like our ever growing image world tend to make us feel now.
We are bombarded daily by images of others and unwillingly feeding a voice of self-sabotage
letting us confused and more disconnected to our authentic self.
Wide Awake Photography is the best of both worlds
- as it combines the beauty of the body in all its facets, which is a more external experience -
WITH the experience of warmth and reconnection to oneself by using mindfulness guidance that changes
your state of being to a state of calmness, connection, trust and love.
My aim is to make you understand and embody the fact that YOU are the creator of your reality,
you are already in control, you can let go of that need to prove and protect and feel fully yourself, connected and whole.
During that session my job is to make you forget you are even here for pictures to begin with.
We create a safe & playful space where you can be and experience yourself as well as your direct environment more fully. What I call the Flow state. You are entirely immersed in the present moment and here time doesn't exist.
You feel incredibly light and relieved from any baggage you might carry with you everyday.
I believe that ultimately most of us are calling a photographer for more than just photos.
I rather believe that women & men want to live a real experience that goes beyond a style of image and a simple shoot.
They want to feel, to feel their bodies, their heart, they want to feel celebrated, seen.
And you deserve it so very much!
A “wide awake session” is a real cocoon to regain confidence,
it is also a big step to clarity about where you are at in your life.
The session takes place wherever you feel called to.
It can take place indoors (in an apartment or a house) and/or outdoors, forest, fields, beach...
the ideal place is where you feel in a bubble
and can let fully express what you feel and who you are.
The wide awake sessions that I offer aim to help you release emotionally.
Whether it is past patterns, the negative image of one's body, the mental load of our daily lives, emotional dependence, sacrifice or even lack of self-confidence, the gaze of others, etc.
The list of reasons that pushes someone to do a photo shoot is vast, but the idea is to go beyond a simple shooting session by integrating an introspective and personal dimension to it.
