GET TO KNOW ME
I'm Delane!
I'm your iced coffee drinking, hype woman and photographer who is obsessed with walking this self-love road with you because I fiercely believe in your magic.
My mission and goal for every single session is to inspire you to see you how I see you. Your true self. The woman you see in the fluorescent bathroom mirror isn't the woman that I see. Where you see "imperfections", I see endless possibilities; the way the light brushes your shoulders, how your curves carve out the shadows, the way your hair effortlessly falls around your face. The woman I see doesn't need fixing. The woman I see isn't broken. You have everything you've ever wanted already within you, and the moment you figure that out everything will change.
What I hope to offer is more than just beautiful images. This is an opportunity to explore your unique femininity. For you to shake things up - to break free of your comfort zone, to heal, to allow yourself to be seen. It's about finding yourself again. It's about taking your power back. And more than anything, this is about breaking free of everything that holds you back.What makes this whole journey transformational is pushing past all of your fear, jumping in with both feet and coming out the other side knowing, without a shadow of a doubt, that you are enough exactly as you are, right now.
FUN FACTS
I am a night owl through and through.
I love me a good cup of coffee - although I don't get to indulge often.
I have ADHD - I talk a lot + I over share - My clients say this is what makes them feel so comfortable and at ease.
I love digging deep and getting to know you and what makes you tick.
I adore my 5 kiddos - with 4 boys and a daughter who is in the midst of her terrible 2's, our home life is nothing short of crazy – but I wouldn't change it for the world.
I am loyal to a fault.
I am an artist at heart and to my core: drawing, painting, sculpting, fiber art. I’ve done them all.
I strive to capture real, authentic, genuine LIFE! My goal is to help you to share and tell your story through my lens.
xoxo — Delane
I WALK THE WALK
I believe it is so important for any photographer, but even more so for an intimate portrait + boudoir photographer to experience what it is like to be in their clients shoes.
This is why I try to step in front of the lens as often as possible.
You might look at my photographs and think, well she just has so much confidence! Let me tell you… I am just as nervous, awkward and at times uncomfortable being so vulnerable in front of another human, let alone one that is documenting it with their camera!
The best advice I can offer is to just commit to the experience. Let go of your inhibitions and negative thinking. Trust the person you have agreed to letting capture you in such a raw state. The payoff is worth it.
This is not just a photo session it’s an experience like none other!
