(1/2) To my trans clients, my clients with darker skin tones, my disabled clients, my clients who are queer, my clients in larger bodies, and my clients who are in other marginalized identities; 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂. The world needs your magic, your softness, your determination, your YOU.

(1/?) 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁? 🤫 99.9% of the people you think are wildly confident merely 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 confident (sometimes for years) before they actually 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 confident. And that's freeing, isn't it? @drsamischalk.bsky.social

(4/5) 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀: I know you’re probably thinking “𝘔𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘰𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘶𝘱 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘉𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘐𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘵𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘱”, but let me tell you friend, you are ready right now and you deserve to have a better relationship with your body.

(3/5) 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 + 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆: Shame thrives when we think we’re alone in our struggles. When healing your relationship with your body, it helps to be surrounded by a caring community of queer folks with similar lived experiences who are working on the same goal. This kind of support is vital! We got you!

Remember that one time @drsamischalk.bsky.social & @millbot.bsky.social and I did a queer, poly Bridgerton-themed shoot? Me too. It was awesome! Here's to more fun photos in 2025, celebrating queerness and joy! #Bridgerton #boudoir #boudoirphotographer #reverenceintimateportraits

The emboldening of hatred is ramping back up again already, less than a week in, and it's hard af to pace myself with the amount of anger and sadness I feel. But I'm taking some steps to try and eventually get both of my businesses off of Meta long-term. Thanks to the folks who follow us here!

I don't do New Year's resolutions, but I love to set intentions! ✨ Intentions for 2025: - Notice more of the magic in the every day - Create more opportunities for connection & community - Allow more time for rest & rejuvenation - Accept abundance and ease - Focus on creative self-expression

What do you want to feel during your session? Sexy, mysterious, powerful, or vulnerable? Boudoir + empowerment sessions don't have to be about sexy vibes if that's not your thing. I'll work with you to make the session your own and celebrate you exactly as you are! #boudoir #empowerment

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲? Vulnerability can look like a lot of things, but ultimately, I don't think we can live our fullest, most authentic lives without being vulnerable in some way, and I don't view vulnerability as a weakness, but as the beautiful gift of being human.

Maybe one of my favorite images I took during Virgie Tovar's Camp Thunder Thighs circa 2019 (which feels simultaneously like yesterday AND 20 years ago)! #fatpositive #empowermentphotography

Oh hey BlueSky! Just your local (to Madison, WI) queer, fat, autistic boudoir + empowerment photographer, finally joining up to see what all the fuss is about because IG & FB are the worsttttttttt. Where are the queer + fat positive starter packs I should follow???
