Meet Mandy

Many of you know Mandy..

She’s the magician who makes every person walking through my door, including me, look like we just rolled out of bed looking fresh and fabulous.

This is her superpower.

Mandy is no stranger to the camera, but this time was different. You see, when I photographed Many last time, she had a lot going on in her life, and no matter how hard you try, the camera sees everything.

After our most recent session, she shared some photos with her partner, and they said “ask Aniya if there’s a difference between the Mandy of last time, and the Mandy you just photographed.”

and the difference was glaring

There was a lightness and a freedom during this shoot that wasn’t there before. While Mandy is up for anything, her body moved differently, and it was a beautiful metamorphosis to see.

Thank you Mandy for always creating with me.. you give me freedom and that makes me happy.

ANiya, xo
