Lesbians on Top is a Chicago-based photo series dedicated to uplifting and celebrating the stories of lesbians across the city. Through intimate portraits and personal narratives, this project aims to authentically reflect the depth, diversity, and vibrancy of our community.
All features will be showcased on here as well as on my Instagram at @_Giantess, with stories gathered through ongoing photoshoots and interviews.
If you identify as a lesbian and would like to participate, I invite you to fill out the form openly and honestly. Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, activist, or a community member making an everyday impact, your experiences hold value and this project is a space created to honor them.
You’re also welcome to nominate someone whose story deserves recognition by including their information in your submission.
Photoshoots will take place on a rolling basis throughout Chicago. For any questions, please reach out directly at GiantessCreation@gmail.com.
Thank you for sharing your truth and contributing to a project that highlights the strength, beauty, and resilience of our lesbian community.
Please note: This project is currently Chicago-based, with plans to expand to additional cities in the future.
This photo series is dedicated to celebrating and amplifying the stories of inspiring lesbians in Chicago. Through powerful portraits and personal narratives, Lesbians on Top seeks to authentically capture the diverse, vibrant voices that make up our community.
I had the absolute honor of meeting and photographing Haley (she/her/they; @jennyschecterstherapist). Haley is a mother, a friend, a (sex) therapist, and a curator of community. While photographing and talking with Haley, I was genuinely inspired to grow and deepen my own sense of community. They spoke about cultivating connection in such an empathetic and opportunistic way.
Haley currently has their hands in a multitude of projects, including using their hypnotherapy certification to help people process past traumas and challenge the ways those experiences shape how we see ourselves and how we show up. They are also in the process of creating a strap-on harness that can be more easily controlled by one’s own body.
I was so honored to share space with Haley and learn more about how they are choosing to grow every day.
