I just love receiving testimonials from clients about their boudoir experience with Jenna Faye Photography. The whole experience of these events or sessions is what really makes them special. The girls who I work with on a regular basis for location, hair, makeup and jewelry are such a huge part of my clients' enjoyment. I am thrilled to constantly work with such amazing women, and to work together with them to help normal, everyday women feel fabulous.
Ashley was super nervous for her session. She told me before, she told me when she arrived, and I think I saw some nervous shaking of her hands for the first part of our session. All that is totally normal- unless you spend a lot of time in front of a camera, the average woman has no idea what to expect- and that in itself is scary! I tell all the ladies who email me saying "I really want to do a session, but I am SO nervous!" that what they are feeling is natural, and that it is my, and my team's, job to to make them look gorgeous and fabulous and feel comfortable. And that we are experts at just that :)
Here is the amazingly kind and honest testimonial that Ashley sent me after her session:
"I have always been the girl in the background, I always figured that was where I belonged. I’m not beautiful, I am not even pretty, I hated to look in the mirror. I was always greeted with disappointment and could only see flaws when I looked at myself. My confidence was at an all time low, I have never felt such worthlessness then what I did the past year. The people I care about would try to get me to see what they saw, a beautiful young lady, but I didn’t. They love me unconditionally and I couldn’t ask for a better group, but despite everything, I gave up on myself, I decided its best to just blend in, nothing special about me. I always would see these beautiful boudoir photographs on Jenna Faye's website, I wished that I could do that. I decided that I need to step out of my comfort zone, that i needed to do this. I went for it. This was exactly what I needed to boost my confidence. I walked into that photo shoot terrified, I wanted to turn around and run, to escape. I was welcomed immediately, greeted by kind faces and warm smiles, they made me feel so comfortable but I couldn’t hide my fear. When I stepped into the room with Jenna I was shaking, all I could think was that I don’t know how to be sexy or beautiful, I was lost. Jenna was so helpful in her directions and kind words and soon enough I was done! I walked into that room scared, lacking confidence. I walked out of that room happy, I looked at myself and said “This is me, I may not be perfect, but I AM beautiful, and I can be sexy”. I have never felt so good in my own skin, it changed me. I actually take time to get ready, I care about myself, and I feel like I’m not just the girl in the background anymore. I see what they see now."
And here is the VERY beautiful and sexy, Ashley :)
Gorgeous, or what?
