Feel Beautiful

 

Ladies, it's time to embrace the real you.

Get the most beautiful portraits of yourself you've ever seen by joining Monda Goette Photography for a one-of-a-kind makeover portrait experience celebrating women of all ages, any nationality or background, shape, size, weight, and hair color.

  • Don’t think for one second that you don’t belong here. This is exactly where you are supposed to be.

  • Embrace every milestone, every victory, scar, promotion, retirement, parenthood, love, achieving that goal, staying, leaving…your story is worth celebrating no matter what!

  • Whether you feel invisible and want to be heard, or you feel inspired and want to share your message with the world (or somewhere in between), know that you are valued & loved.

I want to help you embrace and celebrate who you are! We capture REAL images & stories of real women, just like you, in a guided photo shoot featuring you as your most authentic self.

P.S. We are launching our boudoir photography in Fall of 2024!

 

A professional photo session focusing on YOU.

Your photoshoot will have you feeling confident and empowered so you can truly embrace who you are. There is no better time than right now to do something that honors you! As women, we always tend to put ourselves aside, or we find excuses as to why we feel undeserving of giving ourselves a high five. You are an amazing person. We need to raise a toast to you!

Monda Goette Photography is inviting and encouraging you to give yourself permission to fully embrace a day that is all about you.

You deserve to be celebrated as a woman!

Hey, I'm Monda the Photographer. You are right where you’re supposed to be!

A professional portrait experience is waiting for all women out there, no matter their age, skin color or body type, to help gain confidence and tap into their own self - to reflect, admire, dream, and celebrate.

Every woman should have her moment to feel on top of the world with her photo session. And for some of you, that might mean an elegant gown in shimmery sparkle. For others, that is your favorite pair of jeans bundled up with a chunky sweater while barefoot and a t-shirt. I’m here to ensure this day is special for you.

I’m not only here as your professional photographer and guide, but I’m here as your biggest cheerleader and sister to help you see yourself in a new light with confidence and inspiration! I welcome you to join me on this journey towards self-acceptance, healing & celebration, and finally putting yourself first. You. Deserve. This.

You have a story to tell and voice that longs to be heard. I unapologetically tell those stories in photographs. Let’s do this.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know there are things you are wondering about. Check out the FAQ’s below for the most common questions and concerns women have when considering booking their photo shoot with Monda Goette Photography.

  • STOP PROCRASTINATING! No more excuses about not being in photos because you’re waiting to shed the weight, or whatever else you can come up with! Tomorrow is not promised. You deserve to feel confident, and valued TODAY no matter what the number says on the scale. People love you every day for YOU. Celebrate who you are AS YOU ARE now!

    Besides, the right posing for your body type alone can take 10 lbs off a person, and my goal is to help you be the best version of yourself.

  • Lies. There is only one you. Love and honor that person! I have been a professional photographer for over 14 yrs and am trained to help women of all ages, shapes & sizes to look and feel amazing in photographs. You just have not found the right photographer until now.

  • We will discuss wardrobe ideas at your pre-session consultation, and a complimentary “what to wear” guide is included when you book your session.

  • *Depending on availability - right after your session concludes! A special image reveal and ordering appointment immediately follows your session. At this appointment, you will get to see all your beautiful images and purchase your favorites and fine art products.

    *If we are unable to make same-day viewing, we can make arrangements for you to come in for a separate reveal and order appointment about a week later.

  • Absolutely! Some women choose to do this with their best friend, sister, daughter, or mom. We could even have your significant other join you at the end of your session! Inquire for details and we can make it a friend’s night out!

  • My professional hair and makeup artist has been reserved to set aside time for you at your photoshoot, as well as my studio time and talent. I only allow one reschedule if more than 7 days out from the scheduled session date at no charge, and the reschedule will depend on my artist’s availability to come back to the studio for your rescheduled session. If less than 7 days notice or this is the second time rescheduling, there will be a $250 rescheduling fee.
