Between The Sheets:
The Reclamation Sessions
Between the Sheets is an intimate reclamation experience for women ready to reconnect with their bodies; held in a safe, supportive community.
Reclaim Your Body. Reclaim Your Story.
A one-day intimate reclamation experience combining healing, reflection, and portraiture — designed for women ready to reconnect with themselves, embrace their bodies, and be seen in their fullest truth.
You arrive as you are.
There is no fixing, no performing, and no pressure to share more than you’re ready for.
The experience unfolds gently through grounding, reflection, shared presence, and finally being photographed wrapped in a simple white sheet.
You are not alone in the room.
Community is part of the healing.
Next Reclamation Session: March 29, 2026

“Thank you so much for this life-changing and empowering experience! It was a pleasure working with you. Thanks for helping me to feel comfortable and for bringing out my beauty in these photos.
If anyone is on the fence about doing the shoot, here’s your sign from the universe to celebrate and treat yourself!.”

The Story Behind Between the Sheets
Hi I am Daniella Monestime. As a photographer, I kept hearing the same words from women who came into my studio:
“Can you hide my stomach?”
“Make me slimmer.”
“I need to lose weight before I can be photographed.”
It didn’t matter their age, size, or background, the story was the same. So many women were apologizing for their bodies before I even lifted my camera.
Those words stayed with me.
I realized women weren’t just asking for photographs, they were asking for permission to feel okay in their own skin.
So in 2022, I started Between the Sheets: a portrait series where 20 women were photographed wrapped in a simple white sheet. No makeup, no expectations — just truth.
The portraits were raw and breathtaking, capturing both vulnerability and strength. They grew into a gallery exhibition that touched hearts and opened conversations.
Now, the project continues as The Reclamation Sessions; a space where photography and healing come together.
A space for women who are ready to stop hiding and start reclaiming their bodies and their stories.
If your heart is pulling you toward this work… trust it.
Your body is waiting to meet you again.
Only 4 women are welcome into each circle. The next session is on Sunday March 29, 2026.
