October 17, 2025 6:00 pm

Join us for an unforgettable evening as we unveil a stunning photographic art exhibit and gala honoring the amazing women of the Empowered Mama Portrait Experience

This exclusive event is a celebration of the strength, beauty and resilience of motherhood brought to life through Captured Imagery and the portrait work of Esther Patterson

What is the Empowered Mama Portrait Experience?

A photoshoot experience to celebrate mothers and highlight their strength and their stories.

The mission is two fold:

#1 to honor moms in their motherhood journey and capture portraits that are a celebration of their growth, love and legacy.

#2 to create a movement that elevates the voices of mothers in our community, to create connection through our stories and to rally around each other with love and support

Hi, I'm Esther!

I have been a professional photographer and entrepreneur for over 10 years. My passion is helping my clients to put their "best face forward" and feel joy and pride when they look at their portraits.

Your portrait celebrates YOU ...everything you have been through and how far you've come!

Let's create some magic together!
