Talk: Cultivating Confidence in Your Life & Work

What if you could walk into your day with 25% more confidence? 50%? 70%? Would would your life look like? What doors would open for you?

"Cultivating Confidence in your Life & Work" is a powerful presentation by career photographer and confidence coach Kara Marie Trombetta, that renders the widely sought-out characteristic completely attainable by anyone, making room for life transformation.

“Cultivating Confidence in Your Life and Work”

Kara Marie Trombetta, Photographic Artist, Business Coach and Public Speaker

About Kara

An American photographer based in Como, Kara Marie Trombetta celebrates her 16 year career that encompasses her roles as both a privately-commissioned photographer, and a photography business educator and coach.

Where Trombetta’s art is concerned, she favours impactful black and white images as her medium of choice, using natural light and shadow to honour the human form. Her minimalist, honest, and customer service-centric method of capturing her clients allows each muse to feel exceptionally comfortable and to see the beauty in their authenticity.

With her personal evolution as a catalyst, Kara Marie has come to empower individuals not merely to discover confidence in their skin, but to realise that true confidence is not skin-deep. She regards the absence of clothing on her subjects simply as the removal of distraction, inhibitions, and facades rather than with the objective of creating “sexy” images.

When asked about the classification of her work as “boudoir" photography when it appears to have evolved into something more multi-faceted, Trombetta gently explains:

I work to grant my muses the permission to be fully and naturally themselves without layers to hide behind, without the need for a glamorous makeover or extreme retouching, and also without the pressure to act provocatively.

We can be sexy, yes. We are also intelligent, introspective, resilient, strong, funny, powerful, and emotional. I work to help my clients discover and celebrate their confidence.
— Kara Marie Trombetta
