Embodiment Photo Sessions
Experience the Sacred Medicine of Deep Devotion Toward Yourself
“Catherine sees me. Some of my most transcendent moments have been in front of her camera.”
-Danielle Laporte, Author; “Desire Map”, “Fire Starter Sessions”, “White Hot Truth”
“Since I was aware I had a body I have hated and hidden my body. I’ve been on a journey to reclaim it. [This photo session] was about the right to exist and be seen. This isn’t just about beautiful photos, though it is: it’s about seeing your own power and being in your body and claiming your space in this world. It’s worth every penny and more.”
- Holly Whitaker, Author “Quit Like a Woman” & Founder of Tempest and Hip Sobriety.
“This was unexpectedly one of the most profound experiences of my life. It was my own Super Soul Sunday.”
-Tracy Nash, Luxury Realtor-Nash Luxury-The Keyes Company, Co-Host of Selling Mega Mansions (Season 3)

“To be frank? There are no words that truly do the magic of Catherine’s work justice. To say she sees people in all their beauty is like saying the moon moves the sea. Catherine’s work is transcendent. She’s an artist. Not a portrait photographer. Her mission is to see your essence, and to capture it in all of it’s beauty. For two years I’ve trusted her with my voice and my soul in her lens, and those two years have turned my business into the one I see today. She sees me, and in seeing me, I see myself. All of me. All of the potential, the joy, the movement, the raw energy. She’s a soul alchemist. Her medium is photography. Hire her. You will not be disappointed. - M.”
“So here is a wee secret.
I loathe getting my picture taken. I also have to put myself “out there” a LOT in my businesses. Pretty much more with every passing month. So a lot of the time this has meant taking iPhone photos in my house, taking 100 and selecting 2, editing the living hell out of them and calling them my professional photos.
I am crazy uncomfortable in front of cameras, or...I was. This week Catherine Just and I were both in Cabo at the same time. Catherine is far beyond talented. So I knew I couldn’t pass up the opportunity, weird phobia or no. But her special sauce goes beyond the lens. She has a unique ability to make her subjects feel seen, and loved. Safe.
I gave Catherine just over 30 minutes and she gave me magic.
Thank you Catherine, you are SO.INCREDIBLE.
I mean, have you met you? ”
Kim Sevy : Bowery Hotel : NYC
“You have a magic that makes the images so beautiful. You really do have a gift and it makes people so open, so true, so themselves. It’s a spiritual experience. It’s a sacred ritual. I’m honored to have had this photo session with you. ”
“Catherine is a master. We met yesterday for one of her luxe photo sessions and it was a day of laughter, friendship, kindness and photography. We have known each other for close to 13 years. I’ve taken photography courses with her, been on photography retreats with her, hired her to take photos of me at various stages in my life as an artist, creative and human. Yesterday was one of those really special experiences that comes from deep respect and friendship. Thank you Catherine for capturing this moment and being my friend throughout this journey! Love you, appreciate you and will cherish our time together always!!” — Sarah S.
“Catherine sees me. Some of my most transcendent moments have been in front of her camera” — Danielle Laporte
“It was such a pleasure to hang out and be in Catherine's creative energy. Catherine does the photography for a lot of my clients, we've been accidental collaborators for about two years now and it was such a pleasure to meet her in person. Catherine's vision and how she moves through the world, leaves a trail of light in her path.” —Alyssa B.
“This was so different from anything I’ve ever done before. I don’t like having my picture taken and that’s not what this is about. It was about capturing a moment, an intention, a transition, a letting go, a breath. Catherine is a bit of a magician. ”
“Working with Catherine changed my life. You won’t regret it. I’ve never felt so safe and supported. Catherine helped me find my voice and know that I’m worthy of taking up space. ”
“[Our Session] felt like a Spiritual Experience. It felt like a landing inside myself that I’ve never felt before. It was an infusion of self and the intention put into that moment was huge. I have shivers. This experiene forever changed me.” — P.J. D.
