Woman Alive sessions are creative and playful photography adventures.
They are spaces where we create art, or more specifically, you become art.
In this space you get to be curious instead of polished, expressive instead of perfect.
Each session is designed around you. No two women are the same and neither are our photo sessions.


"As women, we so rarely have healthy arenas to truly witness and presence each other without judgement, thoughts of comparison, or without the expectation that we need to entertain others with our bodies or presence.
Through Linda's work, a woman has a safe place to explore herself on her terms for herself, but she also has the opportunity to be witnessed by another woman who has no agenda except to lovingly hold space for her as she lets her truth emerge.
It's exhilarating to experience this process of self discovery under Linda's loving guidance! The experience stays with you - it shifts something, in a quiet and real way."

"what longtime APW wedding photographer Linda Abbott is offering through her new Woman Alive sessions is pure magic—like goosebumps-and-tears magic.
Much more than just portrait sessions, Woman Alive sessions are like mini-retreats to put down your phone, reconnect with your body, explore, and play.
Los Angeles–based Linda is the kind of intuitive guide that will show you your most important teacher is your own self and your personal evolution is something that’s important and powerful AF.
And rather than being molded into stereotypical poses that society dictates as “feminine,” you’ll get in touch with your truest self to create photos that act as literal touchstones of how you want to feel and who you want to be—and already are—in your daily life."
