The Lightness of Being is a session that honors both a milestone and a mindset. At 40, this woman chose to mark her transition into a new chapter — not with hesitation, but with presence, light, and self-celebration. Photographed at a quiet Southern Illinois lake, her portraits reflect a woman who is both grounded and lifted — joyfully stepping into who she is becoming. With soft movement, natural surroundings, and unfiltered emotion, this session is a gentle reminder that beauty deepens when we let go and simply allow ourselves to be.
Your story deserves to be told. Let’s create something beautiful together.
