Hi, I’m Betsy!

An award-winning international artist and professional photographer since 2005. My purpose on this planet is to reflect the beauty you bring to the world back at you through meaningful art that will transform your sense of self.

After overcoming a personal storm when I lost my life and business partner almost a decade ago, I found salvation in my art. I discovered the transformation of boudoir as it helped me rebuild confidence and my sense of self after loss.

Gifts that came from that chapter have been woven into a truly one-of-a-kind collaboration with my clients in the Grit & Grace Experience. You’ll learn how to love and celebrate yourself and life more through this unique self-discovery journey that is like no other.

This runs deep. You’ll come out on the other side seeing yourself and your life in a new light.

Ms. B, Kalamazoo Michigan Boudoir Client

“OMG this is IT—I need to do this! I’ve been hearing about self-care, which was foreign to me for decades. When I saw a friend’s album & she talked about her experience, I was like OMG this is it—I need to do this!
This process visualizes the way other people see us, that we forget about. I’ve just never had the opportunity to sit back and say, ‘Damn…really? That’s me?'”

Liz, Michigan Boudoir Photography Client

“My photos make me feel powerful. I am now able to walk with my head up, rather than at the ground. My body is beautiful and worthy of all the love I can give it. Looking at my photos (and now myself in the mirror)changes my mood by reminding me that I am fearless and that only I create my story.”

Ms. J, Kalamazoo, Michigan Boudoir Photo Client

“It’s transformative! I saw myself from a completely new angle that I didn’t know was possible. I discovered parts of myself that were locked away before I had a chance to discover them. If you grew up in purity culture, it’s a MUST do on your healing journey! When I saw the gorgeous images, I looked at my body and beauty with admiration, the way a lover soaks in the sight and feel of you. I can’t wait to do this again!

My boudoir photography mission
in West Michigan

My goal is to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. Whether for yourself, family life, or personal branding, each story will be about YOU! My work revolves around meaningful storytelling through photos that you will cherish forever.

I’ve been on the self-exploration journey and done the work that many of my clients embark on. Through my work on rebuilding myself and my life after loss, I have learned many ways to love and celebrate myself, my womanhood, and the present moment.

My life experiences have given me a truly unique perspective on how I see the light. Finding the light in the darkness is part of how I’m wired now, and boudoir photography is my tool to illustrate where they intersect and exist in a delicate balance.

Say yes to body positivity and self-love today.
