This Season Is Yours – Celebrating a Non-Milestone Birthday with Portraits (No Cake Required!)

share

We make a big deal out of milestone birthdays—Sweet 16, 21 and legal, the “dirty 30,” and let’s not forget the legendary 40. But what about all those birthdays in between? The ones that don’t come with a fancy theme or a hashtag? Guess what? They deserve to be celebrated too. And no, you don’t need a cake smash or a bunch of balloons to do it.

A Season of Becoming

Somewhere between your last birthday and this one, you grew. Maybe not in height (we gave up on that dream a long time ago), but in wisdom, confidence, and the ability to let go of things that don’t serve you. That alone is worth a portrait session. Because let’s be real—some lessons were learned the hard way, and you earned this glow-up.

A Season of Beauty

This version of you? She deserves to be seen. The way your face lights up when you laugh, the quiet confidence in your eyes, the way you’ve mastered the perfect head tilt—this is beauty. And no, birthday portraits don’t have to involve a tiara (unless that’s your thing—then by all means, QUEEN). This is about capturing YOU in your element—joyful, powerful, and exactly where you’re supposed to be.

A Season to Be Seen (Without Balloons and Confetti)

Somewhere along the way, we got it in our heads that a birthday shoot has to mean cake smears and a backdrop full of helium balloons. You don’t need props to prove you exist. This is your moment to shine, just as you are. Whether that means a bold, elegant look or a cozy, carefree vibe, your birthday portraits should reflect YOU—not Instagram.

A Season That Passes Too Quickly

This version of you—right now, in this very season—is a version you’ll want to remember. One day, you’ll look back and say, “Wow, I really was that chic!” And you’ll be grateful you took the time to celebrate yourself. Portraits are more than pictures; they’re a time capsule, proof that every year is a milestone—even the ones without the big parties.

A Season Worth Remembering

So, let’s ditch the idea that only milestone birthdays deserve the spotlight. This birthday, no matter the number, is worth celebrating—because YOU are worth celebrating. No balloons required, no cake necessary (though if there’s cake, I won’t turn it down). Let’s create portraits that remind you that every year, every chapter, and every version of you is worth remembering.

My mission is to create fly-ass images to celebrate your legacy through the art of modern portraits.
