The Raw Sessions: 

Come home to yourslf

Celebrating the true essence of yourself without judgment, to fully embody who you are in the most artistic way through the art of empowering portrait photography. 

You yearn for creative unity with a devoted team and aspirational photographs that are eloquent of your authentic intentions.

You desire imagery so powerful and fascinating that it captivates your audience and evokes a stream of pure, undeniable emotion.

The search for a passionate photographer who can artistically capture an aesthetic in alignment with the publication is a challenging task.

Consider this your homecoming, my friend. 

Come Home to Yourself is an opportunity to express yourself without judgment, to fully embody who you are in the most artistic way through the art of portrait photography. 

Celebrating yourself as Art. 

 Over here at Raw Image Studios, we have been honouring the human form as art since 2017.

 

Every experience we offer at Raw Image is designed to leave you feeling seen, sacred and loved.

 The art of observing our self can be dedicated space for self-compassion and grace. There are few better spaces to work on your relationship with your body than in front of the camera. It is a space to create that is entirely within your control.

You get to see yourself and work towards embracing all the versions of yourself.

Make space for that which ignites you because it’s easier not to. Dedicate the time and space to honour yourself. Capture your body-your story -your journey your way.

You are worthy of being seen, of being documented, and of being celebrated. 

Come Home to yourself is a reclamation of your body and celebration of your whole self through an intimate portrait experience.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Gillian

My experience with Lesley taught me to look to myself for my value, instead of outsourcing that job. Seeing myself through Lesley‘s eyes enabled me to see the woman I forgotten about, the woman I am. I have been seen and I will never be invisible again.

Qualia

Getting to spend time around people presenting myself the way I want is so freeing and makes me feel so loved and cared about. I highly recommend this amazing team for anyone that wants to document there amazing bodies and safety and love.

 Lesley has a powerful eye and a beautiful way of helping you be seen and see your body in a new light. If you're feeling called to have photos taken locally she's one of my go-to photographers!

Meet your Photographer, Lesley.

Lesley Stedmon

Owner and principal Photographer

Raw Image Studios

 I’m Lesley + I am a body image educator + photographer who specializes in working with folks who are ready to see themselves and celebrate their body as it is today, using the transformative power of photography. 

It would be an honour to help you celebrate + see yourself through the incredibly healing experience of being photographed in a safe space.

Why do I do this?

I help people recognize who they are is enough.

Celebrating all the versions of ourselves – especially the current version – keeps us moving forward towards more body acceptance, respect and love. And who doesn’t want more Love?
