An investment in yourself~ embarrasing photo of myself included

Wives and mothers we give and give and give...  How many of you are wearing clothes that are either second hand or are more than a few years old?    I know I do, not because we can't afford to buy new stuff but that we just don't invest in ourselves. If you are like me stay at home mom and self employed, then the "need" for work clothes doesn't even exist! So we buy things for our kids or treat our self to a "special" coffee and "treats".  We feel tired and unattractive, not that we want to look good to attract someone else but every woman want to be pretty invest in a day for yourself. The long term reward of feeling good about our self will not only benefit your self but your family will feel your joy. When we feel good about our self, it is infectious we spread our joy to our family and those around us. Invest in you!

Hey Jess, so how much is a Hot Momma session?!

One of the most popular messages I am getting these days is...  "Hey Jess, I am really interested in a "Hot Mommas" session so how much is it? First lets talk about what all is involved in a Hot Mommas session.  About a week before your session we have a wardrobe consultation. We spend time talking about the outfits, and the theme of the session.  You don't have to know exactly what you want right now, that is what we work through during this consultation. The day before or the morning of the session make sure your nails are looking good and you are rested and wake up excited :) if you feel nervous tell yourself I am just excited.  You arrive at the scheduled time and we go through all your outfits and we make a plan!

Un-dressing a boudoir session

"Undressing" a boudoir session Sorry guys, but here are a few secrets of these amazing images. Most times models are fully dressed. It isn't always about what is showing but about the idea the image gives. Let me show you a few of my iconic images and dismantle the magic for you.  Here are 3 images "undressed"  In these two images the model is wearing her jeans and a large necked shirt under this blanket she pulled one sleeve way up and the other arm just pulled out.     Once again shirt just pulled down over the shoulder. Special attention to lighting and angle I am shooting from creates the look we are trying to achieve.  Contouring makeup is applied to enhance the jaw line and cheek bones     So many secrets to share with you and make some beautiful images to treasure for a lifetime.

Boudoir photos~ What is your fear? Lets talk!

Have you been thinking about having a boudoir session but are scared?  You don't want your images online for everyone to see.  You are worried you aren't "fit" enough yet? These are a few of the concerns women have expresses to me. Let me take some time and put your concerns to rest.  Fear: My images will be all over social media! I can't have my neighbors, co-workers and everyone at church seeing photos of me "like that". Fact: I NEVER post or share any image with out written consent by my client, that is why I photograph models for promotional purpose. Your images will only ever been seen by myself and whom ever you decide to share them with.  Fear: I don't want to pose in my underwear and bra... that just isn't like me. Fact: Many of the women I photography are in t-shirts, dresses, and anything they would like. The wardrobe is up to you. I offer wardrobe consultation I am here to help you express yourself through the image.
