Frances Weger is a photographer from Columbus, Ohio, who began turning heads as a teenager with her raw, emotional portraits of youth. Featured by Curated by GIRLS at just 15, her early work already displayed a fearless commitment to honesty.
Her standout project, “All Girl,” uses imagery of pads and period blood—adorned with glitter and paint—to confront period stigma and reclaim feminine experience. Bold and unapologetic, her art challenges societal discomfort with adolescence and the female body.
Influenced by artists like Petra Collins and Nan Goldin, Frances creates from intuition. Her photos—spontaneous or staged—carry emotional weight and glowing nostalgia.
She’s been featured in Lena Cup’s “Teenage Wasteland” campaign and shown in Wright State University’s “Honey Leg” exhibit, spotlighting young women photographers.
Now in her late teens, Frances’s work continues to evolve, exploring identity and gender with the same vulnerability and vision that first made her stand out. Her lens speaks not just about youth—but for it.




My photography shows how I view my surroundings and personal experiences. I strive to document the reality of our teenage years.
