she stopped me...
ten Years Ago,
she stopped me.
she still does.
robin godfrey presents
a portrait that changed everything.
the moment everything changed.
She didn’t ask for the spotlight.
She didn’t rehearse her expression.
She simply stood there—shoulders soft, eyes unflinching—
and for the first time,
I saw what photography could become.
Not a performance.
Not a mask.
Just her.
And since then,
I’ve been chasing that feeling
with every woman who says yes.

and there’s nothing passive about standing still.
I don’t tell her how to look.
I watch for when she stops trying.
that’s the moment I’m here for.
that’s what I frame.
let her be seen.
the girl next door, she’s the one.
You’re the woman in front of me at Starbucks.
The one eating lunch alone in a café.
The one who flew across the country for this—because she knew she was worth it.
You’re not here to perform.
You’re here to be seen.
Wear what you want.
Feel how you feel.
Say yes without needing a reason.
This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about presence.
Unfiltered. Unrushed. Undeniably you.
That’s the difference.
That’s the magic.
This is black & white for a reason.
Yes. I travel.
If you're not local — or just want to go somewhere that feels like freedom — I’ll pack my gear and go.
It’s not about the place. It’s about how you feel *in* it.
Alive. Unscripted. Yours.
We’ll find the light wherever we land.
Just say the word.

the White Sheet
You’re here because you want to be.
Not for anyone else. Not to play a part.
Just to feel something real.
One white sheet. One woman.
The light shifts.
The mood drops in.
And suddenly—it’s all there.
Softness. Strength.
The story only your body knows how to tell.
No performance.
Just presence.
The rest… unfolds.

Forget everything you think you know about portrait sessions.
Let's cut to the chase. Most portrait sessions? Boring as hell. Stiff poses. Fake smiles. Cookie-cutter backdrops. Not here.
I hunt for spaces with character—boutique hotels with attitude, historic buildings with stories to tell, architectural gems that become part of your narrative.
My camera reveals who you are: The power you carry. The fire in your eyes. The story written in your stance.
Authentic. Undeniable. Unmistakably you.
