Making the choice to be seen isn’t always an easy one which is why I believe having your photo taken and getting in front of the camera is life changing.
Photography is vulnerable and intimate and playful and intense and often women can have BIG feelings at the beginning of a shoot.
Hands down my favourite part is knowing exactly what each woman (or family) is needing to actually land in their body before we begin.
My other favourite thing is that I know that they are about to fall deeper in love with themselves and not always because they love what they see (straight away) BUT because they were brave enough to BEGIN.

I have spent A LOT of time in front of the camera and I know what feels good, what feels safe and how to create that beautiful and super important connection between myself and the women, woman and families that I am working with.
Photography is a direct portal to love and self expression and as a coach this shit lights me ALL THE WAY UP.
I am a creative and a deep feeler of life and I use that trust that I hold in my body in every photoshoot. I feel and I capture those feelings in ways that I can't “figure out” but just know are true and real. I also really love the photos I capture.
I love the moodiness, the depth, and the tones.
I love the blur, my god do I love the blur.
I love the close ups and the tiny freckles.
I Iove the window shots.
I love full sun and shadows.
I am obsessed with the feelings that each human feels when they see my work
and I LOVE that it is a moment in time captured that will stay with and you and yours for infinity.
Sometimes being seen isn't easy, in a photo or in life.
Which is why having your photo taken is so transformational, because "the way you do anything is the way you do everything ".
(I feel like when I say this now everyone reads along with a “yes Jarna we know the way you do anything is the way you do everything”)
Because I bang on about it all the time but it really is true.
When you start putting yourself in ANY ARENA of being seen it comes through in all areas of your life and that shit frikin makes me so excited.
Babe nothing is separate.
So why choose me as your photographer?
(Great question)
Because you love my work, you love what I capture, and you love the way you feel when you are here right now reading this.
It's actually that simple.
I am not the photographer for you if you do not like “real life” photography.
My shoots are full of life and living and not a lot of posing. I am loudly obsessed with in-home shoots and capturing you in your safe space (and no it doesn’t matter what your home looks like, the more YOU the better).
I love natural light and playing with shadows and the way the sun does her thing.
Like everything I do I am guided, as soon as you book I see it, I see us and I naturally start trusting what I am being guided too and the magic we will be creating.
“When being photographed there is a need for safety. You want to know that whoever is invited to take images of you, is going to see you how you want to be seen, and to capture you in your truest form. Whether that’s with an ear to ear grin or tears streaming down your face, you deserve to feel held while being documented.
Jarna is the photographer you need.
Jarna creates a space for vulnerability, love, and joy wherever she goes.
There is so much growth that can happen in such a short amount of time with her, it truly is life changing. I would highly encourage you to lean in and invite Jarna to photograph you, you will not regret it.
(In fact, you will absolutely love it.)”
