I want to tell you something: every woman—regardless of her age, size, shape, or beliefs—needs to understand she is perfectly un-perfect right now.
That’s it. That’s what I feel every woman needs to know. Because it is amazing at how many don’t realize they are perfectly un-perfect as they are.

That smile that is a bit crooked—well, you know what I’m going to say—it’s perfectly un-perfect, because that smile lights up your entire face!
The small chest you don’t like—it’s perfectly un-perfect because you’re able to wear styles that others cannot and still look amazing!
Those curves you have—who says they cannot look fabulous at your current weight?
I selected before & after photos for a reason for this blog—I wanted to show you I shoot “everyday” women—they are not models, and many have the same perfectly un-perfect concerns as you. And don’t think for a moment, ‘Well, they are just brave,’ because you know I don’t believe that for a moment!

I secretly wanted to push my session a few extra weeks to lose some weight). Seriously—take those doubts, shove them up your [CENSORED BY SHANNON] to the side and DO IT ANYWAY! At least book a consult and talk with Shannon. You are BEAUTIFUL Right NOW! You want to lose 10 lbs first? Let me tell you a secret—Shannon can help you lose 30 just with the proper posing [Individual results may vary]. And quite honestly when you see your images—the LAST thing you are thinking about is what size you are or that your earlobes are crooked. Look at mine—go ahead—right now—was your first thought ANYTHING other than ‘Wow!’?”
I’m telling you, 98% of a woman’s worries with her body is no longer a worry with proper posing—and that’s something I do very well.
Please contact me today so we can schedule a consult—I’d love a chance to speak to you about your concerns.
