PLUS YOU
We do all of this. Plus you.
Whatever you are. However you don’t fit. Wherever you fall between the categories — or outside all of them entirely.
Every studio has a default.
A type of person they’re built for, even if they’d never say it out loud. You can feel it in the portfolio. In the language on the website. In whether people who look like you, love like you, exist like you are represented anywhere in the work.
mIsFiTs Like ME was built without that default.
Not as a marketing position. As a conviction.
The person you are on Saturday night is just as worthy as the one you are Sunday morning. Every part of you. The parts the world celebrates and the parts it has asked you to hide.
We do boudoir. We do erotic. We do kink. We do art nude. We do identity work. We do couples and throuples and dynamics that don’t have names yet.
Plus you. Exactly as you are.
“If you’ve looked at everything we offer and still wondered if there’s room for you specifically…there is“
THE MISSING SHEEP
There is.
This page exists for the person who read through every spoke on this site and felt something close to recognition — but not quite. Who thought: this is closer than anywhere else I’ve found, but I’m still not sure I fit.
You fit.
The missing sheep isn’t the lost one. The missing sheep is the one the shepherd notices is gone — and goes to find. That’s the theology behind this work. Or HaGanuz — the hidden light. The part of you the world hasn’t always been ready to see.
We’re ready.
‘ Rachelle
“It was so refreshing to find someone who was ready for me. Just as I am.”
Plus You is the answer to questions we haven’t been asked yet.
We can’t name every configuration, identity, dynamic, or expression that belongs here — because the whole point is that we don’t require you to fit a name.
But to give you a sense of who has found their way to this page and felt at home:
The person whose body exists outside every category the wellness industry has tried to sell them. The person whose sexuality doesn’t have a flag yet. The person in a dynamic that has no mainstream language but is deeply, consensually, intentionally theirs. The person who has been turned away — explicitly or implicitly — by studios that had a different default. The person who is simply not sure, and needed to find somewhere that was okay with not sure.
Plus You doesn’t require you to know what you are before you arrive. It just requires that you want to be witnessed.
The person you are on Saturday night is just as blessed as the one you are Sunday morning.
The name of this framework comes from a theological conviction — that the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to call sins are often simply the parts the world wasn’t ready for.
We are.
Bring what you’ve been carrying. The desire you haven’t named out loud. The identity you’re still figuring out. The dynamic you’ve never seen represented anywhere. The body you’ve been told is too much or not enough.
None of it disqualifies you here.
Sin boldly. Or as I’d put it — live fully, exactly as you were made.
“…because your authenticity
is sacred here.”
What to Expect
Sessions take place in our discreet studio in downtown Belleville, IL. Before your session you’ll complete a questionnaire that helps us understand your vision, your comfort levels, and what you want to walk away with.
There are no wrong answers on that questionnaire. There is no answer that will make us flinch.
