This experience is unique.
Every soul I am trusted to capture has a unique self love journey, and therefore has a unique experience when it comes to these sessions.
These are some kind words from some of the beautiful women I've been honoured to photograph in my time.
Baring myself at the age of 45 was not something I was expecting to do, but having gone through a recent divorce and not feeling much my old self, I decided to take the plunge and book a photo shoot in with beautiful Tazzie. From the moment I stepped into the studio, she has the ability to make you feel relaxed, confident, safe and sexy within your own skin and within minutes my body was moving and flowing in front of the camera. I was re-discovering my self-worth and finally finding love for myself and my body again.
Every woman deserves to feel like a Goddess and I can assure you that you will walk away feeling all of this and more. I can’t thank you enough for the most amazing (and fun) experience, I am obsessed with my photos and the way I was captured. You have created for me an everlasting keepsake that I can always look back on and feel empowered by. You are an amazing woman with a very special gift and a genuine warmth, I am already looking forward to booking in my next shoot!
Hopefully I can find the proper words to describe how incredible my experience was at my photoshoot with Tazzie.
First of all, I’m fairly certain that if it was with anyone else, I wouldn’t have felt as comfortable and excited as I did. Tazzie is incredibly communicative, loving, positive and really makes it feel like you are running the show, so you get to do it your way (if you want to ease into it, for example).
I had very poor body image for more than a decade in the past, that had you told me that I was going to get naked in public and have photos taken of me that I actually loved, I would’ve thought you were crazy.
I was of course nervous and equally excited. The photoshoot itself on the beach was really fun. I covered up when people walked by and let it all hang loose in between! It felt SO freeing and so right (like I belonged & I was one with nature, the way Mother Earth intended).
When I finally saw the photos, I couldn’t stop smiling as I scrolled through all of them. Even when my mind went to be a little bit picky about my body in a couple of them, I got over it so fast and was still mesmerised at how incredible the photos looked.
Tazzie is so talented and the fact that I have these photos to look back on forever, and to remember how beautiful and powerful a woman’s body really is, is truly priceless (Not to mention, I was pregnant at the time so now that my baby girl is here, it’s even more special know and she was there in that moment with me).
Thank you so much Tazzie for your work, your talent, your reassurances, and the way that you make people feel comfortable and confident. You and this experience alike are priceless.

I have been completely transformed through this experience.
Previous to this, I didn't think I hated my body, but I couldn't say that I really loved it either. It was just a body. My body. Which was a little too pale, chunky, without the chunk even being in the right places, short, nothing amazing about it really. Through this experience I wanted to see how I looked through someone else's lens. I wanted to truly learn to appreciate and love myself and my body.
I was so, so nervous on the day, I would be getting stark naked, boobs out, vajayjay out in the breeze, every insecurity I had about myself out and about for all to see. It was really intimidating. However, Taz made it so easy. I literally took one look at her and felt so at ease, I remember thinking honestly what could go wrong.
So I didn't over think, I just ripped my dress off, threw it down and started to pose. It felt weird at first, I have never modelled before so I had no idea what to do, but it actually came quite naturally. I was very conscious the whole time that I was naked, but I think my perception of what that meant to me changed, I went from being so nervous I thought I was going to have a panic attack to almost forgetting to put my dress back on when we were done.
When I got the pictures back I almost couldn't believe that it was me. Was this what I looked like to everyone else? I didn't look at the rolls on my stomach, or the marks on my thighs, or the dips on my hips as disgusting, I looked at the whole picture and saw a strong, beautiful, fiery, and brave woman. And now I show the pictures to everyone (whoever wants to see them of course). I'm so proud of my body, and I can say now that I truly love it.
I cannot recommend Taz enough, she is sunlight in human form. The warmest person I have ever met, with such a passion to help others that I can't help sometimes but be swept up in it. I knew that I could trust her with all my doubts and body insecurities and I that I was safe with her. She helped me to love my body in a way I never have before.
This experience was truly empowering and I can’t wait to do it again!
