SEEN

A Cervical Cancer Portrait Project

Saturday, January 2, 2027 - 10:00am to 3:00pm

The Creative Loft | Riverside, California

In honor of Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, Dani Mejia Photography is creating SEEN, a completely free portrait experience honoring women who have been impacted by cervical cancer.

On January 2nd, 10–12 cervical cancer survivors and women currently undergoing treatment will be invited to The Creative Loft in Riverside for a timeless black and white portrait experience.

You may come on your own or bring the person (or people) who have supported you throughout your journey.

Your SEEN experience includes:

A completely complimentary portrait session
Individual black and white portraits
Portraits with your chosen support person or support system
A professionally edited digital gallery
Complimentary coffee from Eerily Mourning Roasters
A thoughtfully curated gift bag from our Local Community Partners
The opportunity to share your story, only if you choose!

There is absolutely no cost to participate.

If you'd like to be part of SEEN, please complete the form below. Share only what you feel comfortable sharing. Your diagnosis and story are personal, and you will never be required to publicly share your experience in order to participate.

Which Best Describes You? *

When were you diagnosed? *

If you're comfortable, tell me a little about your cervical cancer journey. *

What would having these portraits mean to you? *

Would you like to bring someone from your support system to be photographed with you? *

(If, yes) Approximately how many people would you like to bring?

Is there anything you'd like me to know that would help make being photographed more comfortable for you?

Do you have any mobility or accessibility needs we should know about? *

The Creative Loft is located on the 2nd floor and does not have an elevator. Help will be available for anyone who may need it. *

If you participate, are you comfortable with your final portraits being shared as part of the SEEN Project? *

Are you comfortable with parts of your story being shared alongside your portraits? *

Would you be comfortable appearing in behind-the-scenes photo/video content? *

Your answers to these questions will not affect your ability to participate!

ONE LAST THING, Finish this sentence: "I am still..." *

E.g. "I am still strong, courageous, a mother, beautiful, etc..."
