you don’t have to take your clothes off (but you probably will)
What if there’s actually nothing you need to change about your everyday self to be worthy of being photographed?
Most of my clients have overcome, defied, or reclaimed an identity and want photographic proof that they’re becoming someone new.
All of them know that we don’t do anything worthwhile inside our old comfort zones.
Sometimes they reach out because they’re tired of waiting to feel like they’re “enough” or worth celebrating. They’re tired of constantly moving the goal post and think, what if I’ve been holding the key all along?
“Mitzi shows you all the things everyone else loves about you, and by the end of your time together, you love those things too.”
What if you don’t need to be fixed?
No performance, changes, or “improvements” needed. My job (read: honor) is to create an environment so accepting and safe that you can’t help but let your walls down.
Most people expect to change things about themselves before they’re photographed, but I truly believe there’s nothing you have to change about your everyday self to be worthy of experiencing this.
You get to show up exactly as you are, and I get to guide you every step of the way.
"I've had many shoots over the years, but this time it was not about photographing how small or how "on brand" I could be. This time, it was about capturing a coming home. What you see in my raw photos is a version of me that feels safe to open the doors, explore and take up space. This version of myself ate a three course meal and drank wine the night before this photo shoot, and she laughed... a lot. These photos, thanks to Mitzi's calming energy and her radical welcoming of being your true self, make me say, "I made it to shore." These photos are the first time I am seeing the real me through the lens of a professional camera.”

hi, I’m Mitzi
It took me nearly 20 years as a portrait photographer to realize people don’t actually need to be changed.
What they really need is a space to let their walls down, stop performing, and just be.
That’s why I created my signature raw portrait session, and why I offer it to you now.
I’m a recovering perfectionist too — that’s why I created this experience. It reminded me why I’m alive. I know it can do the same for you.
Just trust fall. I promise I’ll catch you.
-Mitzi
