This amazing woman wanted a “wings and waterfall” session. You can see her waterfall photos in another blog post, but in this post, I am sharing her wing photos. Included is what she had to say about this session when she shared about her shoot in the private Facebook group.

Where to start, where to start. Lots of thoughts bouncing around here.
First things first. I had my first shoot with Maura last summer and it was beyond incredible. I felt empowered and beautiful and worthy and I was hooked. Having the chance to glimpse myself through Maura’s eyes helped to start me on a journey of self love and empowerment and acceptance and growth.
At my viewing, I got a print that hangs in my bedroom and I look at it EVERY SINGLE DAY. I love that pic and I wanted to celebrate it. But something happened that I didn’t expect. Over the course of the last year, that image has become what I see when I picture myself in my head. It has become the self portrait that I see when I close my eyes – I no longer create a vision of myself focused on flaws that only I see, I now create an image where I see myself as beautiful and empowered and sensual. It’s the coolest thing ever and something that I never thought would happen. So, take the plunge, do a shoot if you are on the fence, and look at those pics every day. It will change you.
So all that being said, I was all in ready for a full adventure day for my second shoot – wings and waterfalls. Let me just tell you that the entire day just blew my mind! Maura styled my session and I loved it – she has such an eye for outfits and styling. I adore that it is items that I would never gravitate to on my own and they are just so perfect when you see the pics. I also know that for me, it really lifts the stress of picking outfits, I can just trust her, show up and enjoy the day.
There wasn’t a moment during that day that I wasn’t having the time of my life.
Start to finish, I was living an adventure with Maura. The waterfall was possibly one of the coolest things I will ever do. I truly felt like a naiad. It is an epic location that leaves you feeling like a total badass goddess and with every approving hoot and holler from Maura I knew I was going to love the shots. And the wings! Oh the wings! From ethereal angel in white to sexy seraph in the grey – I was feeling like the star of my own runway show.
Final thoughts, (I promise 
), as much as the day is about all the in incredible pics that Maura takes it’s also a chance to enjoy and bask in the wonderful, supportive, loving environment that Maura creates in every one of her shoots. It’s a chance to let yourself be loved and celebrated by one of the most incredible women I know. There aren’t enough words to thank you Maura, thank you for sharing your light and love and talent with all of us.
