The Heart of My Work

Branding & Marketing

Your business is a work of art. You have put your heart and soul into it. It takes trial and error, long nights, and courage to bring your unique skills into fruition. Whether you are starting a new business or needing a refresh, I am here to help you share this moment with the world.

I know how foundational marketing is to your livelihood and success as an entrepreneur. I’ll dive deep into your vision, your story, and the heartbeat of your business, so we can fully capture what it is you want your prospective and current clients to see, now.

Boudoir

Have you recently gone through a breakup? Or want to spice up your relationship? Boudoir is the perfect way to reclaim your spark, confidence, and sexiness. We’ll capture sultry, jaw-dropping photos—no doubt—but it’s more than that. It’s about sinking into your senses and feeling fully alive in this moment of your life.

What’s the magnetic energy only you carry? How does pleasure move through you?

I’ll guide you into presence—into feeling yourself. The warmth of your touch, the sway of your body to music, the softness of your breath as you melt into the moment. The laughter that spills effortlessly, the spark in your eyes when you let go.

This isn’t about performing sexy—it’s about feeling it. Feeling sexy is a state of mind, and I’ll help you get there. Through coaching, movement, and presence, we’ll create something electrifying together.

Portraits

Whatever transition you are in — leaving a soul-sucking job, starting over after loss, graduating, or turning a new decade is a story worth telling. My portraits aren’t about stiff poses or forced smiles—it’s about capturing the way LIFE moves through you as you shed the old and welcome the new.

I will have you engage in one of your favorite activities or passions so we capture you in your natural state. The raw, vital, authentic, and tender parts. The parts that whisper and the ones that roar. I create a space for you to be seen, held, and expressed exactly as you are. Let’s create something real, something you.

These are all offered through:

- Photo packages

- Photo parties

- By the hour or 30 Min

Self-acceptance is hard when you’re standing hunched over in front of the mirror squeezing the folds of your belly. My weight gain has been really hard on me. After my photo shoot with Fiona, I got to see myself in a different light. Seeing the soft curves and striking outlines of my body through a photographer’s eye enlightened in me a profound sense of appreciation and love for the entirety of my being. Fiona’s talents helped me see that I am desirable, beautiful, and perfect. Every detail of my body is part of an extraordinarily sexy whole. I turn to my pictures whenever I need a you-are-incredibly-beautiful reminder.

The How

I offer more than a photo shoot

this is about empowering you through your transition

Transitions shape us—graduations, breakups, marriages, pregnancy, starting or closing a business. These moments push us to grow, letting go of the old while stepping into the new. A photo session isn’t just about capturing this transformation; it’s also about witnessing yourself in it.

But let’s be real - does stepping in front of a camera make you tense up? That inner critic whispering you’re not ___ enough?

We all have that voice.

A session can bring insecurities to the surface, but it can also ignite joy, celebration, and freedom. It’s all part of the journey. There’s no need to hold anything back.

With my coaching, I meet you exactly where you are—whether in tenderness, joy, grief, anger, or liberation. When we bring insecurities into the light, they lose their grip, and we step into more of our wholeness.

This is for you—to grow, to explore the parts of yourself that may not get enough air time. Together, we’ll tailor an experience that’s fully yours. The sky’s the limit.

“My experience in having Fiona photograph me was pure joy. She is such a treat to work with and really made me feel comfortable in front of the camera. I place high value on the photos we co-created. The process allowed me to work through the owning of my body as a delightfully sensual being. To any woman who is interested in working on exploring their deepest capacity for sensuality, delight, and any blockages that might prevent her from experiencing these things, I highly recommend working with Fiona Bartell. She is a passionate, creative, and an insightful coach and photographer.”

“Posing for Fiona is not the typical photography experience. She incorporates a blend of challenge and ease. She is able to give you the insight you need to bring out your radiant beauty. I am still feeling the confidence boost that I gained from my session with Fiona.”

-Naomi

“Fiona offers a really unique experience of being in the female body. She helped me feel relaxed and comfortable during the Boudoir shoot.  Her creative and insightful suggestions were very supportive. In this respectful space, I was able to allow my self-expression and exploration to unfold in front of the camera. I feel empowered and excited from this new experience. Finally, the photos were just amazing!”

-Mara

“I recently did a photo shoot with Fiona Bartell and was not only blown away with the pictures but also with the experience. I wanted to express my warmth, authentic self and spirituality in the photos. Fiona made me feel safe as well as a part of the process. She danced between giving me direction and allowing space for me to show up as I am. There were moments during the shoot where we both noticed when I loosened up and started to express my heart’s message. I truly believe that was created through the process of working together and her love for me during the shoot. Thank you Fiona!!”

Optional Add-On: Your Personalized Photo Book

This is a book where I share your story alongside the photos to showcase the greater meaning of this experience, to have as a reminder in the years to come. Things you’ve said to me in our visioning call and photo session will be sprinkled throughout: your intentions, your why’s, and your wise words spoken during the photo session. I will also mirror all the beautiful things I see in you. It’s an opportunity to mark this moment in your life.

“I whole-heartedly recommend this experience to individual women and groups! Fiona knows how to draw out our best selves, listen to our places of fear, and make all of that totally okay. Plus, it was one of the most fun girls nights I’ve ever had the pleasure of planning with Fiona. She’s extremely easy to work with, and I can tell how much her heart is in what she’s doing. She even dressed up in lingerie with us! I am so much closer to my girlfriends because of this – we got to have a shared experience of unleashing our deepest inner sexy and celebrating each other rather than feeling shameful or scared. Fiona has provided not just pictures for myself (which I LOVE), but an ongoing conversation with my best friends and a shared language around how to help each other when issues of body or worth come up in our daily lives.”

-Amber

“Fiona helped facilitate one of my favorite women gatherings to date! She helped drop my girlfriends and I into the present moment, our intention and our bodies through a beautiful meditation, intention circle and ecstatic dance…all before the photo shoot even began. Fiona helped me feel very taken care of and comfortable. She is totally on point, super sweet, intelligent and brings her own vulnerability to her work (something worth praising)! I’d recommend this for your new Girls Night IN for sure!”
