Power & Poise:
showcasing both the strength in business and the confidence in self-expression
A One of a kind portrait experience
Apply NOW!
Power & Poise is a one-of-a-kind boudoir and business portrait experience designed for ambitious women who are ready to embrace both their strength and femininity.
For too long, women have been placed into rigid boxes—either the powerful, professional leader or the sensual, self-expressive woman. But true confidence isn’t one-dimensional. This project challenges that outdated narrative by proving that empowerment comes from embracing every side of yourself—bold and soft, ambitious and vulnerable, fierce and feminine.
Through stunning portraits that capture both the executive and the unapologetic woman, this campaign inspires women to own their power in every form. Each participant will share a personal quote or affirmation alongside their images, telling the story of their journey, resilience, and transformation.
These powerful stories will be featured in an exclusive magazine and celebrated at a networking and release event, creating a space for connection, empowerment, and community impact.

The Empowering studio experience
Women struggle with confidence, especially in business. Experiencing transformation (through this campaign) can lead to stronger self-worth and leadership success. This campaign is about empowering women to step into their confidence, redefine their narrative, and celebrate their journey all while inspiring others.
💖 Self-Love & Confidence – Women deserve to feel powerful in all aspects of their identity, whether they’re in a boardroom or expressing their femininity.
⚡ Breaking Barriers – This project defies the outdated notion that women must choose between professionalism and sensuality. You can be both bold in business and fearless in self-expression.
👑 Owning Your Power – Strength isn’t just about how you lead—it’s also about how you feel in your own skin. This experience helps women reclaim their narrative and step into their full power.
✨ Representation Matters – By showcasing these duality portraits, we inspire more women to own their confidence unapologetically and redefine what it means to be powerful.
This is more than just a photoshoot—it’s a movement. A chance for women to step out of limiting expectations, embrace their worth, and tell their story through a lens of strength, beauty, and authenticity.

"BREA!!!! SO MUCH I WANT TO SAY!!! I had my session with Brea Tuesday and let me tell you there was no time or room for me to be nervous! The second I walked into her studio I felt at ease. I felt genuinely so pretty ! I took a risk on some of the outfits I choose and honestly I do not regret it! I stepped so far out of my comfort zone doing this photoshoot, obviously I am my own worst critic and have insecurities but Brea made me feel so beautiful. I was nervous reviewing the photos right after because well simply no edits (lol) but they looked STUNNING already. I know Brea gets a lot of positive reviews but seriously, I cannot stop smiling. This was so much more than a photoshoot. I honestly would do another again. I seriously cannot stop smiling every time I look at my photos she captured. THANK YOU A MILLION BREA!! You’re seriously an angel"

"I am still on cloud nine! I feel like a MILLION Bucks!! I was shocked at how much I enjoyed this! I thought for sure this was not for someone like me, 35, someone who doesn’t have time for herself, who works too much and doesn’t pay too much positive attention to how I look or feel. I normally hate pictures of myself and being a plus size woman my whole life, it’s taken a lot of work to love and appreciate my body and all it’s gotten me through…this opportunity was just another stepping stone on that journey, and let me tell you - it was worth stepping outside of that comfort zone. I also don’t like spending money on myself so I was worried about that aspect but when it came to it, there was no hesitation! These photos are absolutely beautiful and I can’t wait to look at them again in person over and over again! I really appreciate Lauren and Brea for making me feel wonderful and would love to do this again sometime! If you’re thinking about this - take this as another “pro” on that pro/con list "
