But I did it -loved it , and had a lot of fun feeling feminine and sensual even in my 50's. It was I gift for my husband but also myself. As someone who is typically more comfortable taking the photos than being in them, it was nice to see myself in a flattering light with no judgement but my own. It is something I can hang on to and even if I never show anyone - it is a powerful thing to have for yourself. Knowing you can be strong, professional, resilient , etc but also have this feminine part of yourself documented as part of you also, is really cool-whether you share it or not. That being said -my husband loved it ;)

If you're looking for a boudoir shoot, I can't recommend Jen enough!! 5 STARS, WOULD RECOMMEND! I…read morehave never had an experience like I had. From the initial phone call, I was engulfed by Jen's wonderful energy and even though I had nerves going into it, I knew that I was in the hands of someone I could trust and if I just followed her guidance I would be fine... and BOY WAS I RIGHT! This experience changed my life. I had so much fun getting hair and makeup done, then taking the actual photos! Nerves went away instantly and I felt like I was in the presence of a long time friend! After, looking at the unedited pictures gave me, for the first time in my life, confidence and a true inner feeling of love for myself. Just have felt beautiful, sexy, and confident ever since. Now that I've received my final pictures, all I can say is DAMN CAN JEN TAKE A GOOD PHOTO! They all look so amazing I want to look at them constantly and show them to everyone!

By the end of the session I could see the confidence in my wife's eye and joy in her heart. Once we reviewed the photos (Which we loved) my wife told Abby that she loved everything about the experience. Abby was thoughtful, professional and very caring.

When I scheduled a session with Pamela for a boudoir photo shoot for the first time back in 2018, I…read moredid it for myself. It wasn't a gift for anyone, I wasn't creating them for my partner. I literally did it just for me, and it was one of the best gifts I ever gave to myself. Pamela was AMAZING, and the photo session and the photos changed my life. I have done three or four shoots since that time, and each has been a fun and meaningful experience. I spent the majority of my life in a very religious group that restricted women's dress and visual appearance strongly. When I was in this religion, I couldn't show an elbow, or a knee. I couldn't allow my hair to be seen uncovered. I had to wear dresses, pants were forbidden. The collarbone was considered to be immodest. There were very, very strict modesty rules. I left that religion in 2016, and started a healing journey to discover what it is to live with freedom and authenticity. Learning to feel safe in my body and feel comfortable in my body was a huge part of this journey. I had to teach my mind and body that the rules I lived with did not exist in the "real world." The first time I wore short sleeves, I felt naked. The first time I tried to buy shorts, I couldn't do it--I cried in the dressing room and left without buying anything. This is to help you understand where I started from! I eventually got past those early days, and in 2018, two years after leaving the religion, I was wanting to expand my healing further. I found out about boudoir photography, and thought--this--this is what I need to do, for myself. I had been taught that my body was "dangerous", that it had to be covered at all times. I had been taught to feel shame for the things that make me a woman. What if I could learn or experience being in my body and showing all those "forbidden" places and it be beautiful? What if I could see myself in another way? I started looking into local boudoir artists, and there was something really special that stood out to me in Pamela's work. Her energy came through, and it felt safe and inspiring. I reached out to her, told her exactly what I was looking for--that this was for me, as I healed from living in a cult for a long time. Pamela was WONDERFUL. She was so open and receptive. She provided guidance and support in the preparation, and then on photo shoot day, while I was so anxious, she was so wonderful at helping me feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. She told me exactly how to pose and what to do, and I just followed her directions. It was fun and exciting and a little scary. Just doing the photo shoot itself was healing, even without getting the images.But, when I got the photos a couple weeks later, I could not believe it. I had never seen how beautiful I was until I saw myself through her artistry. I cried seeing the photos. When I have shared them with people, they always remark how gorgeous the pictures are. I love them, and as I mentioned earlier, I have since done a few shoots after that first one. Every experience is great. I look at my photos every once in awhile, and they always make me feel beautiful and boost my confidence. Pamela is amazing! Yes, you could get the photoshoot done as a gift for someone else or for a partner. But, I suggest you do them for you.

If you've considered boudoir and aren't sure where to start, I couldn't recommend Lynn more. I…read morewanted to do a shoot for my husband for our first anniversary (the paper anniversary). Having to reschedule my shoot several times due to a surprise summer job, and later a last minute vacation, Lynn was very accommodating and to say the least, very patient with all the reschedules! We had a consultation early on that laid out how the shoot would work and what my package options were (there's definitely something for everyone). I settled on a special package that included a photo album, digital copies on a usb, and a digital brag book for our phones. I wasn't particularly nervous going into the shoot, as I am already very comfortable with my body, but for anyone having any doubts, I assure you that Lynn makes everything not only comfortable, but fun! Though I did not partake, there is always wine available at the shoot to help ease your nerves too! My hair and makeup was done by Erica and I'd highly recommend doing the same. It makes it so much easier to jump right into the shoot and you don't have to worry about your hair or makeup getting messed up before hand. Besides, Erica does an amazing job and made me feel gorgeous! The shoot is laid out in an apartment and Lynn walks you through all your poses, even facial expressions. She definitely knows what she is doing! It was amazing going through the photos after she was done with them....and SO HARD to choose between them for the book! She had me looking gorgeous! I must have gone over the photos a half dozen times before I settled on my final choices; again Lynn was very patient :) My book took a couple weeks to come in and I couldn't wait. I checked my email compulsively for the message that it had arrived. The book was an amazing quality and Lynn presented it in a pretty, sturdy, gray box with a pink bow. To say that my husband loved it would be an understatement! He was blown away! And knowing that he can carry the digitals on his phone and computer was a bonus! In short, I could not be happier with my experience and have already mentioned it to several of my friends! Even if you don't have a significant other, do it for yourself...you won't regret it!

I could scarcely believe the gorgeous, sexy woman in the photos was me! Lynn has a real talent for choosing just the right lighting and angles to make her subjects look amazing. Her photos are worthy of a Maxim or Vogue cover. Honestly, they are that good. I went into my viewing session rather skeptical. I mean, I know my body and have never liked being photographed. But, when I saw the quality of Lynn's work, I was amazed. I left her studio even liking my thighs, which is no small thing (neither are they!) Lynn's artistry starts from the time you set up a consultation. You get to see many backgrounds and areas from which Lynn will compose her shots of you. During the shoot, Lynn made me very comfortable. I never had an awkward moment even though I wore only lingerie and swimwear and in some shots, only bubbles. And don't worry about your hair or makeup. Lynn has a professional makeup artist right at the session. My hair and makeup looked AMAZING thanks to Erica. Other photogs may charge less, but they won't do as beautiful a job as Lynn Dao. If you want tasteful, sexy artistry, choose Boudoir in Bloom.
