RAPT is a portrait experience built around a woman's own worth. Not a performance, not a transformation into someone else — an hour that gives many women back a way of seeing themselves they thought they'd lost.Designed by Joe Craig, it carries the same philosophy that runs through all of his work: that every person deserves to be seen. Here, the light is turned on the strength and the magic of being a woman.

In their words

"I did not feel old, or unappealing. I felt alluring, and saw myself in a more positive light than I'd experienced in a long while. It was affirming in a way I almost cannot put into words — and that feeling carries into my life daily now." — Stephanie

"From the time I walked through the door until I left, it was completely about me. Joe showed me the photograph and I started to cry. It's a feeling I can't explain." — Khadija

She remembers who she is.

RAPT

Too many women have only ever felt self-conscious in front of a camera. RAPT is built to do the opposite. It exists to turn the light on a woman's own strength and worth — and to send her home with a truer picture of herself than she's carried in a long time. Whatever your age, whatever you've been led to believe, you are worth seeing.
