THE MOMENT IS NOW
The woman you are today—fully living this messy, beautiful life—is the one who deserves to be celebrated. This is your time and space.
It’s self-care and self-advocacy.
In my women’s photography sessions, you’ll have nothing on your agenda other than showing up as the woman you already are. Because she is everything.
I’m here to cheer you on (literally—I used to be a cheerleader, so the hype runs deep).
You bring that incredible force you use to run your life, and I’ll create magic for you.
WOMEN DONE WAITING
They were nervous but showed up for themselves anyway.
Your turn.
WHY MY CLIENTS BOOK ME
Women book me for more than pretty pictures (though yes, you’ll leave with plenty of those too). It’s because they might need reminding of who they are at their core—a chance to get acquainted or reacquainted with themselves away from the ambient business of life.
You walk in carrying everything—the mental load, the to-do lists, the constant responsibility of keeping everything and everyone else afloat. And for a few hours, you get to put all of that aside.
Here’s what you’re getting:
This is your time to breathe and give yourself permission to take up space. You spend so much time making yourself more convenient and less demanding, but not here. Here, you get to be loud, powerful, soft, peaceful—whatever you need to be that day, without apology.
Your confidence gets a reset. Most women leave my sessions holding themselves differently. They text me days later saying they spoke up, set a boundary, or finally made a decision they'd been putting off. Something shifts when you see yourself the way I see you.
The photos are the evidence—the reminder you can come back to when you forget—but what happens during our time together is what changes things for the women I photograph.
IN THEIR WORDS
-
NICOLE
“I decided to book a personal photoshoot because I wanted to do something meaningful for myself, to step into more confidence and celebrate where I am in life. I had some nerves beforehand, but Irena made me feel so supported and safe from the very beginning.
What I enjoyed most was how empowering the whole experience felt, it wasn’t just about posing, it was about embracing my femininity and feeling proud of who I am.
When I saw my photos for the first time, I was honestly blown away. I felt beautiful, strong, and truly seen.
My biggest takeaway is that this experience is a gift to yourself, the portraits are stunning, but the real transformation is how much more confident and connected you feel afterwards.
If you’re considering booking a session, I’d say don’t overthink it, you absolutely deserve this experience, and Irena has a gift for bringing out the best in you.”

FRANCIE
“Maternity photoshoot with Irena in her studio left me in awe and proud of my body and its powerful feminine strength for growing the miracle of new life.
For the first time in two pregnancies, I felt elegant and confident in my body.
Every mum-to-be deserves this experience.”

AINHOA
“I'm not very used to posing in front of a camera but Irena made it all very easy.
With her simple instructions, guidance, and especially her excitement to capture my true essence, I felt really comfortable.
Also being able to see the pictures on the computer as soon as she took them, and being aware of how beautiful they were turning out, made me feel more confident, relax and enjoy it to the fullest.
It was a relaxed, easy and very special session. When it was over, all I could do was smile and think about how much I was looking forward to having those beautiful photos.
I recommend all women to have this experience for a boost of energy and self-esteem.”

JASLEEN
“This was my first studio session and I had no idea how to pose which made me a bit nervous at first. But Irena has this remarkable skill to make you feel comfortable quickly.
As the session went on, my confidence just kept building. Even when I saw the unedited photos on her screen, I couldn't believe how graceful and beautiful I looked.
The whole experience felt like art, and the way she used different lights and shades gave everything such a dreamy feel.
I loved every part of it and would recommend it to every woman.”

YOON
“The session ended up being really healing for me. It gave me space to actually appreciate myself, which isn't something I do often.
Irena made it easy to just be myself. We'd chat and she'd encourage me to move around naturally, which helped bring out my personality instead of feeling stiff or posed.
When I look at these photos in 10 or 20 years, whether I'm going through good times or struggling, I know they'll remind me of my strength.
I'd recommend this to any woman who wants to connect with herself more and maybe discover some genuine self-love along the way.”
KIA ORA.
SVEIKI.
I’m Irena.
I create portraits for women who are done waiting, done shrinking, done putting themselves last. Women who are ready to see themselves the way everyone else already does—as the force of nature they are.
I’ve navigated my own struggles with how I see myself, so I know how vulnerable it can feel to be photographed. That’s why I never push. I follow your lead, match your pace, and create space for whatever you’re bringing that day.
Just come as you are.
STILL THINKING ‘SOMEDAY?’
I hear it way too often:
“When work calms down.”
“When the kids are older.”
“When I feel more confident.”
But ‘someday’ mindset is a trap—that day may never come.
Meanwhile, you’re out there doing extraordinary things every day, as the woman your younger self would cheer on. The woman your friends admire and your family relies on.
This version of you—the one in the thick of it all—is the one worth remembering.
You don’t need to wait until everything is perfect (is there even such a thing as ‘perfect’?). You don’t need permission from anyone—but if you did, here it is:
Girl, you’ve earned this, period.
