SELF LOVE
PHOTO FUN DAY
The Outfit You Never Get To WearSaturday 25th July 2026.
7-9pm
Location: Formby Beach
ONLY £35
WHO IS THIS EVENT FOR
This is an intimate, high-energy self-love photography experience for women & they/them’s who fancy doing something a bit different.
Maybe you’ve got an outfit hanging in your wardrobe that never gets its moment.
Maybe you’ve got your eye on an outfit you want an excuse to buy.
Maybe you love the idea of being photographed but feel a little nervous about it.
Maybe you just want an evening at the beach with good people, lots of hype, and an excuse to celebrate yourself.
You do not need to arrive feeling confident, photogenic, or like you know what you’re doing.
That’s very much not the entry requirement.
This is a women-centred space, designed to feel relaxed, encouraging, and fun.
You’ll be photographed individually, but you won’t be left to figure it out alone: I’ll direct you throughout, and the group will be there cheering each other on between turns.
Your body is already photograph-ready. You’re allowed to wear the thing, take the photo, and enjoy the occasion now.
The Plan
It’s super simple, we meet at 7pm and head to the beach together.
Dress Code: The Outfit You Never Get To Wear
This experience is about getting individual photos of yourself in a group environment,
therefore it will work as a series of short rounds being photographed in different set ups.
During the process we will
Cheer each other on & embrace being silly.
Laugh a lot & make new friends.
WHAT YOU TAKE HOME
Access to an online gallery with your individual photographs, 3 high res downloads included with options to purchase more.
And hopefully a little more self love and some new friends.
WHAT TO WEAR
The theme is the outfit you never get to wear.
That could mean a ball gown, sequins, a dramatic suit, a bikini, a sexy revealing fit, flowy summer dress, western vibes, jeans and a T-shirt, or just the outfit that feels most like you.
There’s no right level of dressed up here.
The only brief is: wear something you’ll be dead excited to see yourself in.
Bring a warm layer for in-between photos and something sensible to get yourself down to the beach in.
Most importantly: don’t keep saving the outfit for an unknown future occasion
You’re opportunity is here.

So join us for a fun day of self love & self care, making friends and having yourself a little photoshoot.
VIBES FOR THE SHOOT
WHY I’M HOLDING THIS EVENT
I believe no matter our age we should all have the opportunity to step out of our real lives, embrace a bit of silliness and have fun, gorgeous professional photos taken of ourselves.
Why is this so important as an adult?
We often don’t feel good enough. We often don’t feel like we deserve nice photos particularly on our own.
But I’m here to tell you, you are flipping good enough and you do bloody deserve it.
We often feel it’s embarrassing to be silly and we have to present a certain way all the time because that’s how we show we’re real life adults. And yeah sometimes that makes sense…
But I’m here to say let’s fuck that off for a bit and embrace enjoying life in ways we maybe haven’t in a long time.
So what is better than dressing up in the outfit you never get to wear, make new friends with like-minded people, having a laugh, be a bit silly and get some banging photos too?

Joy, I just wanted to drop you a message to say thank YOU so much for my shoot.
For someone that’s always struggled to accept my lumps, bumps, stretch marks and everything in between, to standing in front of you in my underwear in a barn was pretty WILD but the photos say it all!
Thank you SO much for making me feel like a million dollars that day. I look back on my photos and smile.
Thank you for capturing not just my face but my confidence and happiness!
You didn’t just show me how I look, you showed me who I am - and I love her 🤍

On the day of the retreat I was feeling depressed and anxious about life stuff. I was encouraged to come along and I am SO glad I did! Through group journalling, dancing, photoshoots and meditation and all round gorgeous atmosphere of supportive sisterhood, I felt lifted up and accepted.
It was exactly what my soul needed and I felt so much more upbeat and smiley by the time I left and that was thanks to everyone for providing me a safe space to be myself. I recommend their retreats to everyone. Thankyou for meeting me where i was at and accepting me as I am ❤️

“Joy was really upbeat and helped my nerves flutter away.
I felt unconfident and shy to begin with but eventually came out of my shell and strutted my stuff in-front of the camera and the other girls.
The edited photographs are absolutely gorgeous, love her style so much!”

“Joy is a beautiful human with a gift for photography. I attended her self-love workshop which was just the most uplifting day.
It was my first proper time in front of a camera, so I started off a little nervous with no clue how to pose, but Joy made me feel so comfortable, gave plenty of helpful tips and made the photoshoots super fun. I left the workshop feeling lighter, brighter and really empowered, with the bonus of some really amazing photos that I will treasure forever.
Thanks Joy :)”
