When’s the Last Time You Actually Looked at Yourself?

Week 9 - Body Reconnection

Checking In With You

Hey, friend. Let’s pause for a second. I want you to think back… way back to January and February. Remember all those moments we dug deep? We started the year reclaiming ourselves - unleashing the woman we’d tucked away, refusing to play small, shaking off boredom, and stepping into boldness. Then in February, we turned inward, exploring our dark feminine energy - stopping the wait to feel alive, claiming desire without guilt, trusting our bodies before our minds, and letting that power flow through our lives.

That was a lot, wasn’t it? And if you’re feeling a little… off about it now, that’s okay. That’s actually where the magic happens. Because here’s the thing: all that inner work matters most when it lands inside your body. When it’s not just ideas in your head, but a real, living, breathing connection to yourself.

When Did You Stop Really Seeing Yourself?

Think about your day-to-day. When’s the last time you really looked at yourself? Not just a glance in the mirror, not a quick check before leaving for work, not even scrolling through photos and sighing. I mean truly seeing yourself. The good. The messy. The lines, the curves, the laugh marks, the scars, the softness, the edges.

It’s so easy to ignore our bodies. We’ve spent years being “too busy,” “too tired,” “too distracted.” And yet, your body has carried you through it all. Through heartbreak, through babies, through sleepless nights, through wins that no one noticed. And maybe it’s been a little lonely in there, waiting for some attention.

Why Reconnecting Feels Weird at First

Here’s the truth: when you actually start paying attention, it can feel… strange. Maybe even uncomfortable. You might notice things you’ve ignored or forgotten about. That’s normal. That’s growth. That’s coming home.

Your body isn’t just skin and bones. It’s your story, your history, your power. It’s the thing that first felt joy, first felt desire, first felt life. And it’s been trying to tell you stuff the whole time… even when your mind was too loud to hear it.

How to Start Seeing Her Again

So what can we do today, right now? Here’s a little roadmap to reconnect with your body without pressure, without judgment:

1. Stop for Five Minutes – Find a mirror. No distractions. Just stand there and look. See her. Take it all in.

2. Name Her Strengths – Whisper out loud (or in your head) what you love about your body. Even one thing counts.

3. Notice Sensations – Run your hands over your arms, your legs, your shoulders. Feel her warmth. Feel her strength.

4. Remember Her Story – Think about what she’s carried you through. Thank her. Celebrate her.

It doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to take long. But it does have to happen.

Bringing Your Dark Feminine Into Your Body

You’ve been playing with dark feminine energy lately… trusting your body, claiming desire, embracing power. That energy isn’t just in your mind or your actions; it lives in your body. Every confident step you take, every bold choice, every moment of pleasure, it lives there. Coming home to your body means letting that energy settle in, really feel it in your bones.

Your body remembers before your mind does. Your body knows what feels good, what’s safe, what’s yours. It’s waiting for you to show up. And when you do, magic happens. Confidence rises. Desire awakens. Power flows.

Your Homework (Yes, I’m Gonna Give You Homework)

Take five minutes today. Look. Touch. Notice. Celebrate. No judgment. No “I should…”, just pure, unfiltered seeing yourself.

And when you do, remember: this is just Week 9. You’ve been building to this moment since January. This is your next level. This is coming home.

💖 You’ve got her, sister. She’s been waiting for you.

If looking at yourself in the mirror feels hard right now, imagine seeing yourself through the lens of someone who celebrates every curve, every line, every inch of you. A boudoir session isn’t just photos… it’s a chance to truly look at yourself and feel seen.

Click below to send me a quick note and let’s make seeing yourself feel effortless.

You won’t be bothering me. And you won’t be talked into anything.

She Said This Boudoir Session Changed Her Life…

There’s this moment that happens before almost every session…It’s quiet. It’s usually in the car. And it sounds a lot like: “What did I just sign up for?”

Alexis told me she felt it the second she pulled out of her driveway.

The nerves. The second guessing. The “am I actually doing this?” spiral.
And then she walked in…we chatted like old friends.

Hair. Makeup. Music playing. Someone guiding her through every little movement so she didn’t have to “know what to do” or try to be sexy on her own. And something shifted.

Here’s what she said after her session:

“From the moment I got into my car, I knew this experience was going to be life changing. This experience BLEW me out of the water!! This was everything I have ever needed. I have never felt more beautiful and empowered a day in my life.

My nerves were turned into pure excitement the moment I was getting hair and make up done. When we started taking pictures and I noticed how amazing they turned out, I got out of my own way and had the most amazing experience of my life. I am forever grateful.

I would do this 50x over in a heart beat. If you’re thinking about it, do it!!”

– Alexis

And here’s the part I want you to hear:

She didn’t walk in confident.

She didn’t walk in feeling ready.

She didn’t suddenly wake up that morning loving every inch of herself.

But somewhere between sitting in the chair… seeing herself in the mirror… and realizing she didn’t have to hide… she stopped picking herself apart and started allowing herself to exist in her body!

That’s what this is.

Not just photos.

But the moment you realize:

You’re allowed to feel beautiful… without losing 10 pounds… without waiting for the right relationship… without fixing your stomach… without earning it first.

You don’t have to become someone else to deserve this.

You just have to show up!

And if a small part of you is curious what it might feel like to finally get out of your own way…

This is your sign 💋

Bringing Dark Feminine Energy Into Your Actual Life

Week 8 — Dark Feminine Energy

If you’ve been reading along this month, you might be realizing something important:

Dark feminine energy isn’t a concept.
It’s a way of moving, choosing and relating to yourself.

And it doesn’t show up all at once.

It returns in layers.

Week 5: Awareness

We started noticing….

Noticing how desire didn’t disappear.
It got delayed.
Postponed.
Put on hold until everything else was handled.

You learned to be responsible, dependable and needed.
And in the process, wanting became something you negotiated with instead of listened to.

This week wasn’t about action. It was about honesty.

Dark feminine energy begins when you stop overriding yourself.

Awareness is the doorway.

Week 6: Permission

Then came the shift from noticing to allowing.

You remembered that pleasure, curiosity, sensuality and rest are not rewards for productivity.
They’re part of being alive.

Dark feminine energy doesn’t need justification.
She responds to sensation, not obligation.

This is where embodiment began.

You didn’t add more.
You softened how you moved through what’s already there.

Week 7: Safety

Then we named the guard.

How being “put together” can double as protection.
How competence can keep you safe but distant.
How many women aren’t numb… they’re braced.

Dark feminine energy doesn’t force her way back in.
She returns when she feels welcomed.

This week was about creating safety for feeling again.

Feeling comes back when it’s no longer rushed or judged.

Week 8: Integration

This is where it all comes together.

Dark feminine energy lives in:

• The way you take up space

• The way you inhabit your body

• The way you let yourself be witnessed

It’s not about being overtly sexy.
It’s about being present, felt and connected to yourself.

And here’s where I want to be very clear.

For many women, this energy doesn’t fully integrate through thinking alone.

It integrates through experience.

Through being guided.
Through being seen.
Through being in your body instead of analyzing it.

That’s exactly why a boudoir session fits into this work so naturally.

Not as a photoshoot.
But as a physical practice of everything we’ve talked about all of February.

Slowing down.
Letting yourself receive.
Moving with intention.
Being witnessed without performing.

A session becomes a container where:

• Desire doesn’t have to be earned

• Your body isn’t rushed or judged

• You practice presence, softness and confidence in real time

Not for the camera.

For you.

Your next step

If this series resonated, don’t let it stay theoretical.

You don’t need to overhaul your life.
You don’t need to “be ready.”

You just need a space where this version of you is allowed to exist fully.

If that space feels like it could be here, I’d love to hold it for you.

🔥 Message me at any of these places

You don’t need to decide.
You don’t need to be ready.
You don’t need to know what you want yet.

Most women who end up doing a session didn’t start with certainty.
They started with curiosity… and a little nervous energy.

That’s normal.

If you’re feeling pulled toward this but also hesitant, that doesn’t mean no.
It usually means something important wants to be talked through.

So I made this easy.

Click the button below and send me an email.
I’ve already written the words for you.

No pressure.
No awkward explaining.
No commitment hiding on the other side.

Just a conversation between two women.

Sometimes dark feminine energy returns the moment you allow yourself to be heard.

And if this month taught you anything, it’s that you don’t have to do this alone.

You won’t be bothering me. And you won’t be talked into anything.

Your Body Knows Before You Do

Week 7 — Dark Feminine Energy

Week 5, we woke HER up
Last week, we gave HER permission
This week, we know our body remembers before our mind does

Here we go. 🖤

Your Body Has Been Paying Attention This Whole Time

While you were busy being responsible…
Your body was keeping score.

It noticed:

• What drained you

• What softened you

• What made you feel alive

• What shut you down

Even when you ignored the signals.
Even when you pushed through.
Even when you told yourself it didn’t matter.

Your body didn’t stop speaking.

You just stopped listening.

This Is Where Dark Feminine Energy Actually Lives

Not in your thoughts.
Not in affirmations.
Not in motivation.

Dark feminine energy lives in sensation.

In the way your shoulders drop when you finally exhale.
In the way your hips sway when you’re not being watched.
In the way certain music makes you feel something you forgot you missed.

She doesn’t announce herself.

She moves.

Why So Many Women Feel Disconnected From Their Bodies

Most women were taught to treat their bodies like projects.

Fix it.
Manage it.
Improve it.
Push it harder.

Especially after motherhood, your body becomes something you use…
not something you inhabit.

So it makes sense that desire feels distant.

You can’t feel sensual in a body you’re constantly correcting.

Reconnection Isn’t About Loving Your Body

This might surprise you.

Reconnecting with your body isn’t about body positivity.
It’s about body presence.

It’s about noticing:

• When something feels like a yes

• When something feels like a no

• When you’re tense

• When you’re open

The dark feminine awakens when you stop asking,
“How do I look?”

And start asking,
“How does this feel?”

Your Body Speaks in Whispers, Not Words

This is why so many women miss the moment.

The signals are subtle:

• A craving for touch

• A desire to slow down

• A pull toward beauty, texture, warmth

• A restlessness that isn’t mental

Your body doesn’t shout.

She invites.

And when she’s been ignored for a long time, she waits patiently.

Until one day… you finally hear her.

This Is Where Sensuality Begins Again

Not in lingerie.
Not in mirrors.
Not in performance.

Sensuality begins the moment you let yourself feel inside your body again.

When you:

• Move without watching yourself

• Rest without guilt

• Touch your own skin with intention

• Let pleasure be quiet and personal

This is dark feminine energy in its most grounded form.

Not seductive for others.
Magnetic for yourself.

If This Is Stirring Something Physical, Not Logical

That’s the point.

Your body remembers what your mind forgot.

And the more you listen, the louder she becomes.

Not demanding.
Not chaotic.

Just undeniably alive.

Try This Tonight

No mirror.
No phone.
No fixing.

Just ask yourself:
“What would feel good in my body right now?”

Stretch.
Move.
Rest.
Breathe.

Don’t make it productive.
Don’t turn it into a routine.

Just let your body lead.

And if you’re craving a space where this kind of embodied connection is welcomed and normalized…

This is Your Permission Slip to Desires!

Week 6 — Dark Feminine Energy

Last week, we woke HER up
This week, we give HER permission

Not permission to burn it all down.
Permission to want, to feel, to receive.

This week is about the most forbidden thing for:
👉 Pleasure without earning it first.

Let’s Talk About the Guilt No One Names

Here’s something most women won’t say out loud:

They want more…
but they feel guilty for wanting it.

More desire.
More pleasure.
More attention.
More depth.
More sensation.

So they tell themselves a story:

“Once I get everything done.”
“Once I lose the weight.”
“Once life slows down.”
“Once everyone else is taken care of.”

As if desire is a reward you earn for good behavior.

Dark Feminine Energy Doesn’t Wait to Be Earned

This is where the dark feminine breaks the rules.

She doesn’t ask:

• Did I do enough today?

• Was I productive enough?

• Did I take care of everyone else first?

She asks:
“What do I want?”

And she lets that answer exist without explanation.

That’s why this energy feels uncomfortable at first.

Because most women were taught that wanting is selfish…
and pleasure is indulgent…
and desire should be quiet.

Why Desire Goes Dormant (Especially for Mothers & Wives)

Desire doesn’t disappear because you got older.

It disappears because it became conditional.

Conditional on:

• Being useful

• Being attractive in a specific way

• Being easy to live with

• Being “low maintenance”

Over time, your body learns:
Wanting feels risky.

So it shuts down.

Not to punish you.
To protect you.

The Dark Feminine Reclaims Pleasure Slowly

This isn’t about forcing yourself to feel sexy again.

It’s about letting yourself receive again.

Receiving:

• Rest without guilt

• Touch without expectation

• Attention without apology

• Desire without justification

The dark feminine awakens when you stop making pleasure prove its worth.

When you stop asking:
“Is this allowed?”

And start asking:
“Does this feel true?”

This Is Why So Many Women Feel Numb

Numbness isn’t the absence of desire.

It’s the result of denying it for too long.

When you constantly override what you want, your body eventually stops speaking loudly.

The dark feminine doesn’t demand.

She waits.

And when she finally gets your attention, it often shows up as:

• Disconnection

• Restlessness

• A quiet sadness you can’t explain

• A craving for depth you can’t name

That’s not a problem to fix.

That’s an invitation.

You’re Allowed to Want Without a Reason

This might be the most radical thing you read all week:

You don’t need to deserve desire.

You don’t need to justify pleasure.
You don’t need permission to feel alive.
You don’t need to explain why something lights you up.

The dark feminine doesn’t negotiate her worth.

She remembers it.

---

Try This Tonight

Instead of rushing past this feeling, sit with it.

Ask yourself:
“What do I want… if I don’t have to earn it?”

Don’t judge the answer.
Don’t act on it yet.
Just let it exist.

And if you’re craving space to explore this part of yourself with women who are asking the same questions…

🖤 Join us at Sheer Social – February 15th at 1pm

Not to become someone new.

This Is the Year I Stopped Waiting to Feel Alive.

Week 5 — Dark Feminine Energy

Birthdays Hit Different Now

When I was younger, birthdays felt exciting.
Something to count up toward.

Now they feel… revealing.

They shine a light on what you’ve been postponing.
What you’ve been tolerating.
What you keep telling yourself you’ll get to “someday.”

And this year, I couldn’t ignore the feeling anymore.

Not sadness.
Not regret.

Just a quiet knowing:

I don’t want to keep waiting to feel alive.

Somewhere Along the Way, I Learned How to Be Needed

Like a lot of women, I learned how to be everything for everyone.

Reliable.
Strong.
Capable.
The one who holds it all together.

And for a long time, that felt like purpose.

Until it started to feel like I was disappearing inside my own life.

Not in a dramatic way.
In a subtle one.

The kind where you’re doing all the “right” things…
but something inside you feels muted.

Dark Feminine Energy Isn’t Loud. It’s Honest.

I used to think dark feminine energy was something you stepped into.

Something bold.
Something performative.
Something you became.

Now I know it’s something you stop suppressing.

It’s the moment you admit:

• I want more depth

• I miss feeling desirable

• I crave connection that isn’t surface level

• I don’t want to keep shrinking my wants to stay comfortable

Dark feminine energy is truth without apology.

The Moment I Realized She Was Still Here

This birthday didn’t come with fireworks.

It came with a question I couldn’t unask:

What if the version of me I miss… never left?

What if she was just waiting for me to stop being busy enough to hear her?

Waiting for me to stop explaining myself.
Waiting for me to stop prioritizing everyone else’s comfort.
Waiting for me to choose myself without guilt.

That realization changed everything.

This Isn’t About Reinventing Yourself

I’m not trying to become someone new this year.

I’m not chasing a glow up.
I’m not chasing a version of myself from ten years ago.

I’m reclaiming the woman I muted to survive.

The one who:

• Trusts her instincts

• Feels at home in her body

• Wants pleasure without justification

• Refuses to apologize for wanting to feel alive

That’s dark feminine energy.

And she doesn’t need permission.

If This Birthday Is Stirring Something in You Too

If you’re reading this and feeling that familiar ache…

That sense that time is moving faster than your joy…
That craving for depth, desire, and presence…

You’re not behind.
You’re not broken.
You’re not selfish.

You’re waking up.

And maybe 2026 isn’t about becoming better.

Maybe it’s about becoming honest.

I don’t know exactly what this year will bring.

But I do know this:

I’m done waiting for the “right time” to feel alive in my own skin.

And if you’re feeling that too…
I see you.

Or if you’re ready to experience this energy in a way that changes how you see yourself forever…

🔥 Book a boudoir session
Not to become someone new.
But to remember who you already are.

How to Shift Into Your Bold Era (Without Burning Out)

Week 4: Reclaiming HER Series

You’ve seen HER.
You’ve felt HER.
You’ve been reminded that you don’t have to be small in life.

Now comes the part women don’t talk about: stepping into boldness.

Not loud, not reckless. Not a “new personality.”
Just… fully claiming the woman you’ve been putting off.

And doing it without burning out.

Boldness Isn’t Chaos

Boldness isn’t shouting, overworking or doing it ALLLL at once.

It’s the small, deliberate choices that say:

• I matter.

• I will take up space.

• I won’t shrink myself to make others comfortable.

• I am worthy of desire, joy and attention.

It’s a shift that starts inside before it shows up outside.

Avoid the Burnout Trap

Many women jump from playing small to going “all in,” thinking boldness means more hustle, more effort, more stress.

But that’s not sustainable!!!

True boldness feels like:

• Prioritizing yourself without guilt

• Setting boundaries with ease

• Saying no to what doesn’t align

• Saying yes to what excites you

• Celebrating progress, not perfection

It’s fierce, grounded and unapologetically yours.

How to Start Your Bold Era

1. Notice where you’ve been dimming yourself.
   Awareness is the first step. You’ve done this in weeks 2 & 3… now it’s time to lean in.

2. Pick one small, bold action each day.
   Speak your truth. Wear the outfit that excites you. Take a solo moment just for you.

3. Protect your energy.
   Boldness doesn’t require burning out. Boundaries aren’t optional, they’re essential.

4. Celebrate the wins.
   Even small ones. Every bold choice fuels the next.

Bold Isn’t a Moment… It’s a Habit

This week, ask yourself:

• Where can I be more visible?

• Where can I say yes to what excites me?

• Where can I honor my desires without apology?

Boldness isn’t a sprint. It’s a way of being.
And the more you practice, the easier it becomes.

This is your era. Your choices. Your spark.
You’ve been reclaiming HER for four weeks… now step fully into it.

✨ Step Into Your Bold Era✨

Boldness doesn’t mean doing everything. It means choosing yourself intentionally, celebrating your wins and honoring your energy.

If you want to keep receiving weekly reminders, reflections, and invitations to reclaim HER, I send one honest message each week for women ready to step into their bold era.

Your Spark Isn’t Gone....She’s Just Bored

Week 3: Reclaiming HER Series

Remember when life used to excite you?

When a Friday night wasn’t just relief from the week, but an opportunity to actually feel alive?!?!

Somewhere along the way, that spark didn’t disappear.
It didn’t run off.
It just… got bored.

Bored of routines.
Bored of everyone else’s expectations.
Bored of waiting for permission to feel desire, joy or thrill.

And here’s the kicker: she’s been quietly tapping her foot while you’ve been pretending life is still interesting.

Why We Think Our Spark Is Gone

We tell ourselves:

• “I’ve changed too much.”

• “I don’t have time for that anymore.”

• “I’ve got responsibilities; this isn’t me.”

We confuse fatigue and repetition for loss.
We confuse compromise for disappearance.

But the truth is, your spark isn’t gone.
She’s just bored with playing the same version of life over and over.

How She’s Trying to Get Your Attention

You feel it in small ways:

• Restlessness during routines that used to be comforting

• Your mind wandering during conversations or tasks

• A sudden longing for something that makes you feel electric

She’s not angry. She’s not missing.
She’s teasing you, saying:
“Wake up. Remember me. Remember what I’m capable of.”

Inviting Her Back

This week, instead of trying to reignite your spark with a “plan” or a “goal,” try inviting her back:

• Move your body in a way that feels sensual or joyful

• Say something bold…even if it’s small

• Pick up a book, podcast or activity that excites you

• Take five minutes to notice what makes your pulse quicken

You don’t have to overhaul your life.
You just have to let her play again.

The Truth About Your Spark

It’s not lost.
It’s been waiting, bored, for you to remember that life can still thrill you.

So this week, pay attention to the small sparks.
Notice what lights up your skin.
Notice what makes your heart rate skip.

She’s there.
She’s just bored.
And she’s ready to play.

✨

If you want weekly notes to keep walking through this journey together, I send one honest message each week for women. Each month will have a new topic to focus on. January is about finding yourself again.

The Moment You Realize You’ve Been Playing Small

Week 2: Reclaiming HER Series

There’s a moment most women don’t talk about.

It’s not dramatic.
It doesn’t come with a breakdown or a breakthrough playlist.

It usually shows up quietly.
In the middle of a normal day.

And suddenly you realize something that’s hard to unsee: I’ve been playing small.

Not because you lack confidence.
Not because you aren’t capable.
Not because life beat you down.

But because somewhere along the way, playing small felt safer than wanting more.

Playing Small Doesn’t Look the Way You Think

Playing small isn’t hiding in the corner.

It looks like:

• Saying “I’m fine” when you’re not

• Keeping opinions to yourself to avoid rocking the boat

• Dressing for comfort instead of desire

• Talking yourself out of things you want

• Shrinking dreams so they feel more “responsible”

It looks like being wildly competent while quietly unfulfilled.

And the hardest part?
You get praised for it.

You’re dependable. Low-maintenance. Easygoing. Strong.

So you convince yourself this is just adulthood.

When Did You Decide This Was Enough?

Most women don’t choose to play small.
They adapt.

After kids.
After heartbreak.
After exhaustion.
After being needed by everyone else.

You learn to mute yourself just enough to survive.
And then one day, survival starts to feel like suffocation.

That’s when the restlessness creeps in.

You can’t name it.
You just know something feels off.

That’s not dissatisfaction.
That’s your truth tapping you on the shoulder.

Playing Small Isn’t Humility. It’s Habit.

Somewhere, we were taught that wanting more made us ungrateful.

So we minimized ourselves to stay likable.
Palatable.
Acceptable.

But here’s the thing no one says out loud:

You can be grateful and crave more.
You can love your life and want to expand it.
You can be a good mom, partner, friend and want to feel alive again.

Playing small doesn’t protect you.
It slowly disconnects you from yourself.

The Moment Everything Shifts

Reclaiming HER doesn’t start with a plan.

It starts with awareness.

The moment you realize:

• You’ve been dimming your desires

• You’ve been choosing safety over alignment

• You’ve been living a version of yourself that’s… tolerable

That moment changes everything!

Because once you see where you’ve been playing small, you can’t unknow it.

And you don’t have to blow up your life to stop.

You just have to stop abandoning yourself in quiet ways.

This Week, Notice Where You’re Holding Back

Not to fix it.
Not to judge it.

Just notice.

Where do you silence yourself?
Where do you settle?
Where do you tell yourself, “This is just how it is now”?

That awareness is power.

And it’s how reclaiming HER deepens ✨

If this made you uncomfortable, that’s not a problem.

That’s awareness waking up.

This week, don’t change anything.
Just notice where you’ve been playing small.

And if you want to keep walking through this January together, I send one honest note each week for women reclaiming HER.

Why You Don’t Need a New Year, You Need To Unleash Yourself

Week 1: Reclaiming HER Series

Every January, women everywhere are told the same tired story.

New year. New goals. New routines. New rules.
Fix this. Improve that. Be better. Try harder.

But what if the problem isn’t that you need a new year?

What if the truth is quieter…and heavier?

What if you don’t need to reinvent yourself at all?
What if you just need to unleash the woman you’ve been keeping on pause?

If you’re a middle-age woman, like myself, chances are you didn’t lose yourself overnight. You tucked her away piece by piece.

After the kids.
After the marriage shifted.
After the career took over.
After the body changed.
After life demanded more than you thought you had to give.

And somewhere along the way, she learned to wait.

The Woman You Keep Putting Off

You know exactly who I’m talking about.

She’s the version of you who:

• Used to feel magnetic without trying

• Had opinions and said them out loud

• Took up space without apologizing

• Felt connected to her body instead of at war with it

• Dreamed bigger than what was “realistic”

She didn’t disappear.
She didn’t fail.
She didn’t get lost.

She’s been patient.

Waiting for the kids to be older.
Waiting for the chaos to settle.
Waiting for permission you were never going to be given.

And every January, you tell yourself, “This is the year.”
But then life taps you on the shoulder and says, “Not yet.”

So you compromise again.

Why “New Year, New You” Never Works

Here’s the thing no one tells women in midlife.

You don’t need more discipline.
You don’t need another planner.
You don’t need a stricter routine or a prettier vision board.

You are exhausted because you are over-functioning as everyone else’s everything while under-serving yourself.

A “new year” doesn’t fix that.

What fixes that is deciding you are no longer available to abandon yourself.

Reclaiming HER isn’t about becoming someone else.
It’s about remembering who you were before you learned to be smaller.

This Is the Year You Stop Waiting

Stepping into the version of yourself you’ve been putting off doesn’t require a dramatic life overhaul.

It starts with quieter, braver choices.

• Choosing yourself even when it feels uncomfortable

• Letting desire matter again

• Listening to the pull instead of silencing it

• Allowing confidence to feel natural, not earned

• Giving your body kindness instead of conditions

This isn’t about blowing up your life.
It’s about coming home to yourself.

And yes, it will feel unfamiliar at first.
Because you’ve been living in “responsible mode” for a long time.

But unfamiliar doesn’t mean wrong.

Reclaiming HER Starts Now

This January isn’t about fixing what’s broken.

Because you aren’t broken.

It’s about unlocking the door you’ve kept closed for years.
It’s about letting yourself want more.
Feel more.
Be more.

Not louder.
Not busier.
Not perfect.

Just more you.

This is Week One of reclaiming HER.
And it begins the moment you stop waiting for the right time…
and decide you are worth showing up for now ✨

You’re Not the Only One. This post exists because so many women quietly tell me the same thing: “I feel like I lost myself.” If that’s you, you’re not broken and you’re not alone.

Welcome to My New Home Boudoir Studio: Real Life Luxury

When I dreamed of moving my boudoir photography studio into my home, I imagined a space that felt both elevated and intimate. A place where women could breathe, stretch, take up space and feel completely themselves.

Now it’s real. And it’s a vibe!

And because I want you to feel supported from the moment you step in, I include professional hair and makeup with every #SheerExperience. We chat like besties while I play with your hair and face turning you into a boudoir queen.

This is your first look inside my new home boudoir studio in Northeast Ohio, created for bold women who crave confidence, comfort and a little bit of delicious rebellion. And just wait until you see the next set I’m creating… think piano, more candles, a dreamy glow and pure magic. It will blow your mind.

Why a Home Studio? Because Real Women Need Real Spaces

After 10 years of shooting in a traditional studio, I wanted something deeper, warmer, more intimate. Something that feels like a personal invitation instead of an appointment.  This home studio isn’t just where I live. It’s where you get to come alive.

Every inch has been designed with the boudoir experience in mind: textures, flattering light, mood driven areas and sets that are real life….Let’s take a tour.

The Living Room: Velvet, Firelight and Feminine Power

This room is pure atmosphere.

The velvet couches giving you both softness and power. The fireplace adds romance with a warm candle light. Every pose makes you your own piece of artwork here.

Women who want something a little cinematic love this space. It’s for boldness. For edges. For stepping into the version of you who’s ready to own it!

The Dining Room: Elegance That Knows How to Misbehave

If the living room is cinematic, the dining room is couture.

The wood, clean lines, flowers and natural light give this space an elegance… but don’t get it twisted. This room is a mix of classy and sexy.

Think laying across the dining table like you are the main course. Gorgeous chandelier and lights. Think “powerhouse wife who is done being modest.”

It’s sophisticated, feminine and a little provocative in the best way.

The Kitchen: Where Domestic Goddess Turns “Damn Who Is She?!”

Images to come soon for this area.

Here, you get to play. Coffee cup in hand. Water on your body. Add in fruit, cake, champagne or anything else. A little sass, a little edge, a whole lot of “I woke up like this and I look amazing doing it!”

This room brings out the natural, unfiltered kind of sexy that feels effortless but photographs like fire.

The Master Bedroom: Soft Sheets, Bookish Temptation and The Iconic Gold Mirror

The master bedroom is where the energy turns delicious. Think cozy energy: warm lighting, textured bedding, shadows in the doorway, simplicity of the dresser and the cozy book corner! It’s perfect for women who want to tap into their intimate, sensual side without losing the comfort of being in a beautiful, safe space.

And then there’s the star of the room: ✨ The iconic gold mirror!

It’s tall. It’s dramatic. You’ll catch glimpses of yourself from angles you didn’t know existed. It’s magic for kneeling poses, over-the-shoulder shots, glowing vibes, and that “main character” energy that so many women fantasize about.

Why a Home Studio Creates a Different Experience

Boudoir is already intimate, but doing it in a home space brings out an entirely different version of you.

Here’s what clients keep telling me:

✔ “It feels less scary.”
✔ “I felt like I was hanging out with a friend, not standing in front of a stranger’s camera.”
✔ “I didn’t feel judged. I felt free.”
✔ “It made it easier to relax and be myself.”

A home studio gives you permission to unwind, to loosen your shoulders, to laugh, to flirt with your confidence instead of forcing it.
You walk in as you are.
You leave feeling like the woman you forgot you could be.

A Session Built Around YOU

Each room in my home tells a different story and we choose the spaces that match the energy you want to step into.

Cozy. Bold. Regal. Fierce. Quiet. Seductive.
You don’t have to choose just one. You get to explore.

You’ll have access to the lingerie room, the props, the robes that demand attention, the textures, the lighting setups, and the styling that makes your photos feel uniquely yours.

This studio was designed for women to take a bold step into their confidence journey.

Ready to Step Into Your Own Confidence?

Whether you’re craving a spark, seeking a confidence jolt, rediscovering your dark feminine energy or simply ready for something fun and bold… this new home studio was built for you.

Your skin, your vibe, your energy.
My home. Our playground. Ready to book? Fill out my contact form and I will send you the details!

The Year You Finally Stopped Abandoning Yourself

Woman to woman…let’s get real for a minute!

It’s the week after Thanksgiving and if you’re anything like… well, every mom I know, you’ve spent the last few weeks pouring yourself into everyone and everything else. Family gatherings, school events, cleaning, cooking, trying to keep the peace, smiling for photos, managing expectations….basically doing emotional gymnastics while holding a pumpkin pie in one hand and a Target gift list in the other.

And somewhere in all of that?

You disappeared again.

You told yourself, “I’ll start taking care of myself after the holidays.”
You said, “January will be my time.”
You whispered, “Everyone else needs me more right now.”

But girl… when is it finally your turn?

What if THIS is the year you stop abandoning yourself?

Not January.
Not when life magically slows down (spoiler: it won’t)!
Not when the kids are older, or the budget is better, or when you’ve lost weight, or when you feel confident first.

What if the confidence comes because you finally choose you?

Because here’s the truth we’ve ignored for too long:

💥 Selflessness is beautiful, but self-abandonment is not.
💥 You can’t pour from an empty cup, and you are running on fumes.
💥 Your spark isn’t gone, it’s buried under everyone else’s needs.

And I see you.
The woman who used to feel bold.
The woman who craves passion and excitement again.
The woman who wants to feel like more than a chauffeur, chef, house manager, and emotional safe place for everyone else.

You deserve to feel alive again…not just functioning.

This is the time where you get to choose yourself!

Not because you’re selfish.
But because you are important too.

Because your daughters and sons are watching what self-worth looks like.
Because your marriage deserves a woman who feels powerful and sensual.
Because the world needs the version of you who knows her value.

And because deep down, you’re tired of playing small.

Imagine this being the story you tell next year:

“December 2025 was the year I stopped abandoning myself.
I reclaimed my confidence, my body, my voice, my joy.
I stopped waiting to feel ready and did it anyway.”

That version of you?
She’s already inside you.
She’s waiting for you to choose her.

So here’s your invitation:

Do one thing TODAY that’s just for you.
Say yes to something that scares you in a good way.
Do the thing your future self will be proud as hell you did.

Book the session.
Wear the lingerie.
Schedule the alone time.
Start the workout.
Say no to something that drains you.
Say YES to something that lights you up.

Choosing yourself is not an afterthought.
It’s the first step to feeling like the woman you were always meant to be.

And I’m right here cheering you on….and doing it with you!

This is the last month of the year, so stop abandoning yourself 💋🔥

Why Taking Up Space at the Table Is Sexy

(And Yes, I’m Talking to YOU.)

Look… this week is chaos. Kids home. Groceries everywhere. Someone forgot the rolls. Your husband is asking where the good scissors are….again.

And in the middle of all of that, it’s way too easy to shrink yourself…your voice, your needs, your spark…because “everyone else needs something.”

But here’s the truth that will flip your whole Thanksgiving energy:

A woman who takes up space is sexy as hell.

Not the woman who tiptoes around.
Not the one who hides her opinions.
Not the one who only eats half a roll so she doesn’t feel “blah.”

Nope.

The woman who sits at the table, literal or emotional, and claims her spot with confidence?
She’s magnetic. Powerful. Untouchably feminine.
And she’s in you already… she’s just buried under a mountain of casseroles, last minute runs to Target and dishes that seem to multiply like gremlins.

So this year?

Take up space.

Say what you want.
Ask for help.
Take the last slice of pie.
Wear the damn dress.
Sit with your shoulders back, chest open, head high.
Let people feel your energy when you walk in the room.

Because when you do?
Your confidence doesn’t just rise…it returns.
That dark, feminine spark you’ve been missing?
She shows up. Loud and lovely.

And if you want to carry that version of you into 2026?

This part is for you…

How to Keep Your Confidence When Life Gets Stressful

(Especially when you’re a mom, a wife and the keeper of everyone’s schedule)

Listen… if your confidence has been feeling a little wobbly lately, I need you to know something right out of the gate:

It’s not because you’re weak.
It’s because you’re carrying more than most people ever will.

Between school drop offs, work, laundry that somehow multiplies overnight, mental load Olympics, being everyone’s emotional support human and keeping a whole household alive…
Of course you feel stretched thin.

And now it’s the week before Thanksgiving…the time of year when women magically become event planners, head chefs, decorators, therapist, and chaos managers on top of their normal full-time roles. No wonder your confidence feels like it’s running on fumes.

But here’s the part no one says out loud:

Your confidence doesn’t disappear. It just gets buried under everything you’re juggling.

And we’re about to dig her back out.

1. Drop the “Good Girl” Pressure

You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to have the Pinterest Thanksgiving.
You don’t need to keep everyone happy.

You just need to be YOU…the woman who shows up, tries her best and deserves to breathe for just five minutes.

Confidence grows when you stop apologizing for not being Superwoman.

2. Your Body Isn’t the Problem…Your Stress Is

When life gets heavy, your body reacts.
You get tired. You get bloated. You get drained.

None of that means you’re “less sexy.” It means you’re HUMAN. Some of the sexiest photos I’ve ever taken have been of women who walked in stressed as hell but still showed up for themselves.

Confidence isn’t about feeling perfect…it’s about deciding you’re worth showing up for even when you don’t.

3. Do One Thing This Week That Makes You Feel Like YOU Again

Not the mom version.
Not the wife version.
Not the “responsible adult” version.

YOU.

Maybe it’s a long shower, a walk alone, a fresh pair of lashes, blasting music in the car or finally saying “no” to something without guilt.

Tiny choices stack up. Tiny moments build confidence faster than perfection ever could.

4. Give Yourself Permission to Want More

Yes, you’re grateful.
Yes, you love your family.
Yes, you love being who everyone needs.

But you’re also a whole ass woman with desires, edges, fire, personality, sexuality and energy that deserves attention.

Confidence doesn’t grow in the shadows…it grows when you let yourself take up space again.

5. Do Something Bold Just for You

Here’s the truth: You don’t get your spark back by waiting for life to calm down.

You get it back by doing something that lights you up… even when you’re terrified.
Even when life is messy. Even when you feel “not ready.”

And this week…before the holiday chaos fully kicks in…is actually the best time to claim something for yourself!

Black Friday Starts NOW (and it’s your sign to choose YOU)

This is the biggest sale I do all year and it’s designed for the woman who’s tired of feeling invisible and ready to feel powerful, sexy, confident and alive again.

⭐ Black Friday Special Includes:

• FREE session fee (yep… 100% on me)

• 90-minute luxury boudoir session for 2025 or 2026

• PLUS a second 90-minute session in 2027

• Professional hair + makeup

• Full posing guidance

• Image reveal appointment

• Exclusive product discounts

• Only $49 to lock in your date

You get TWO full sessions for less than the cost of dinner out.
And you’re securing a whole experience that’s designed to bring your confidence back from the dead.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign… this is it.

A Final Note (Read This Slowly):

You’re allowed to take up space.
You’re allowed to feel sexy again.
You’re allowed to crave confidence and pleasure and identity outside your roles.
You’re allowed to do something wild, bold, fun and selfish…especially now!

Life is stressful. But your spark is still there. Let’s bring her back!

Ever heard the term NERVE-CITED?!?!

Think You’ll Be Awkward? GOOD. That Means You’re Human.

Let’s just get this one out there:
You are not too awkward for this.
Not even close.

You’re not the first (and I’m sure won’t be the last) to say things like:
“I don’t know what to do with my hands.”
“I’m gonna look ridiculous.”
“I’m not sexy like that.”
“I’ll probably just laugh the whole time.”

I promise to help guide you the whole way through this. It’s not everyday you get naked (or wear lingerie) in front of a stranger…but I promise I will make it so comfortable and easy that you’ll be surprised at how comfortable you feel just 5 minutes into your boudoir session with me!

Most of us are awkward & question if we can pull off being sexy. Those first few minutes I can guarantee you’ll feel nervous. You’re stepping into something so outside of your comfort zone, something totally new…your brain’s like, “Wait…we’re doing what now?”

Totally normal.

You’re not a model. You’re not supposed to walk in and instantly channel your inner Beyoncé (though don’t worry, she will show up 😉)!
All you have to do is show up… nerves, giggles, shaking hands, all of it… and I’ll take it from there. I like to call this “nerv-cited” …when you are a mix of nervous and excited.

I’ll guide every move…eyes closed, breathe through your mouth, eyes to the camera, move that hand there and this one there…and point those toes (I won’t let you fail)!
I’ll be your biggest hype girl, you’ll wanna take me home with you!
I’ll make sure you feel safe, confident & sexy…and you won’t be pretending. Your confidence will show up during your #SheerExperience.

Because something shifts.
The moment that first shutter clicks.
The moment you see that first “holy sh*t, that’s ME?!” preview on the back of the camera.
That’s when the awkward fades and the fire hits.

That’s when you stop overthinking and start feeling good about yourself.
That’s when you take up space like you are meant to.

And every single woman… yes, every one… says the same thing afterward: “I thought I’d be awkward… but I felt amazing.”

So bring your awkward. Bring your nerves. Bring that beautiful, messy, unsure version of you.

I’ll bring the energy, the direction and the fire.
Let’s turn “this feels weird” into “I’ve never felt more like myself!”

🔥 Now here’s the fun part:
My HUGE Sheer Black Friday Event is happening right now!

Session fees? 100% covered.
You just pay $49 to lock in your spot and you can book for this year or next.
PLUS you’ll get a bonus 90-minute session in 2027 (yep, that’s TWO full luxury sessions with hair + makeup, posing guidance and a killer confidence boost).

So if you read this and say “that scares me”… take that as your sign.
Book it while this deal is hot, and before the holiday madness hits.

🔥 I haven’t met one person who was too awkward for a boudoir session with me! I know you aren’t too awkward.

Feeling Nervous? That’s Exactly Why You Should Do This!

Let’s get real for a sec.
You’re nervous. I know.

Your palms get sweaty just thinking about booking a boudoir session. Your heart does that wild little drum solo when you scroll through boudoir photos. And in the back of your mind, that voice whispers:
“Ugh… what if I hate how I look?”
“What if I freeze up?”
“What if I just can’t pull it off?”

But here’s the thing…those nerves are not a stop sign. They’re a freaking green light!!

Nerves mean something big is about to happen.

Every single woman (and man) who walks through my studio doors feels it…the butterflies, the shaky hands, that “what the actual hell am I doing?” moment.
And you know what else every single one of them feels when they walk out?
Lit Up. Glowing. Powerful. Unstoppable. Sexy. Confident.

Because those nerves? They mean you care.
They mean this matters.
They mean you’re standing on the edge of something real and you’re about to dive straight into the boldest, most badass version of yourself you’ve ever met.

Here’s the truth:
You don’t have to wait until the fear goes away.
It won’t. You’re human.
And doing something bold always comes with a side of butterflies.

That’s how you know it’s worth it.

Most of my clients tell me a similar story:
“I was terrified… but oh my god, I’m so glad I did it.”

Because once the music kicks in, the camera starts clicking and you start feeling that rush of “ohhhh, this is happening”…the nerves don’t disappear.

They turn into…adrenaline, fire, joy, confidence!

The first shot might feel scary.
The second feels better.
By the third?
You’re flipping your hair, arching your back and owning that space like you were born to be there with me!

And when you see your photos for the first time that same day…those nerves melt into something completely different and you become PROUD of yourself!

You’ll sit there and say,
“I did it scared. I did it anyway. And damn… I’m glad I did.”

So if your stomach’s doing somersaults just reading this…good! That’s completely normal!

This isn’t about being fearless.
It’s about choosing yourself even when fear shows up.
Let those nerves ride shotgun.
You’re still the one driving and I’m right there with you in the passenger seat.

---

🔥 Now here’s the fun part:
My HUGE Sheer Black Friday Event is happening right now!

Session fees? 100% covered.
You just pay $49 to lock in your spot and you can use it for this year or next.
PLUS you’ll get a bonus 90-minute session in 2027 (yep, that’s TWO full luxury sessions with hair + makeup, posing guidance and a killer confidence boost).

So if those butterflies are flapping… take that as your sign.
Book it while this deal is hot, and before the holiday madness hits.

🔥 You’re not too scared. You’re ready for this!

I Could Never Do That… OH YES YOU CAN

You’ve scrolled through boudoir photos online and thought:
“She looks amazing.”
“She’s so confident.”
“She must have it all together.”
“I could never pull that off.”

Sound familiar? Let me stop you right there. Because Yes You Freakin’ Can!!!

The truth is, the woman you’re admiring? She said those exact same words before her session. She was nervous. She overpacked. She had a million questions and a brain full of doubts. And yet, she walked into her #SheerExperience and owned it like a total boss.

She didn’t magically become someone else overnight. She didn’t suddenly transform into a supermodel. She just said yes anyway. Even with the nerves. Even with the doubts. Even with that little voice whispering, “not ready yet.”

And here’s the secret…that voice is totally wrong!

You don’t need to know how to pose perfectly. You don’t need to feel “confident enough.” You don’t even need to know what the hell you’re doing. That’s what a boudoir photographer is for. I’ll guide you, hype you, pose you and make sure you feel like the badass, confident, sexy woman you already are.

Because you? You’re not the exception. You’re the reason this experience exists.

You’ve spent long enough telling yourself “I could never.” Shrinking, hiding, doubting, waiting for the “perfect moment.” Spoiler alert: that moment is now!

That wild, confident, unapologetic version of yourself? She’s been in there all along. She’s just been waiting for a door to open. And this boudoir session is that door.

On the other side? Photos that make you think, “Damn, that’s me.” Moments that make you feel more yourself than you have in years. A version of you that doesn’t second guess, doesn’t shrink and struts wherever she goes.

You’ve got the fire. You’ve got the want. All that’s missing is the decision.

So let’s stop with “I could never…” and start with: “What if I did?”

Book your luxury boudoir session in Northeast Ohio today and take that first step. Ask the questions, say yes, and I’ll walk you through every confident, sexy, empowering step along the way.

Once you do this, I promise… you’ll never say “I could never” again.

#SheerMoment vs. #SheerExperience: Which is Right for You?

If you’ve been thinking about booking a boudoir session in Northeast Ohio, you’ve probably noticed the wide range in pricing. Some photographers offer quick mini sessions for less than $1000, while a full luxury boudoir experience can be anywhere from $2000-$8000.

Here’s the thing: both are amazing. The question is…which one fits your life (and your confidence level) right now?

1. The Boudoir Experience

#SheerMoment (Mini Session): Think of this as your flirty little teaser. Mini sessions are short, fun, and focused on capturing a few incredible shots. Hair and makeup are usually done yourself and you’ll bring your own lingerie. Perfect if you want to dip your toe in, treat yourself without a full day commitment or just update your photos.

#SheerExperience (Full Luxury Session): This is the whole damn thing. From the moment you walk into the studio, it’s all about you. Hair, makeup, guided posing, multiple shooting spaces, lingerie in every size…plus plenty of time to relax and enjoy the experience. No rushing, no stress…just a full day celebrating your confidence, your style, and your sexiness.

2. Studio & Shooting Spaces

#SheerMoment: Mini sessions usually take place in one shooting space with simple or themed setups. Fast, efficient and perfect if you just want a taste or have already had the full experience and need another little pick-me-up.

#SheerExperience: Our Girard, OH studio is built just for boudoir. Multiple sets, styled spaces, flattering lighting and thoughtful details throughout…all designed to help you look and feel amazing. The variety in setups ensures each boudoir session is unique, personal and stunning.

3. Photographer Expertise

#SheerMoment: When you book a mini session, you’re getting a fast, flirty taste of what boudoir feels like. I’ll guide you through every pose so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands (or your face 😅). You’ll get a handful of stunning images that make you say, “Damn, that’s me?!” and leave you wanting more.

#SheerExperience: When you invest in a full luxury session, you’re working with Jen, who lives and breathes boudoir. I’ve specialized in this for over 10 years, photographing women of every shape, size and comfort level. I even get in front of the camera myself so I know exactly how to take a photo from good to HOLY HELL, THAT’S ME?! I’ll pose, light and direct you in ways that flatter every curve, bring out your confidence and make you feel sexy as hell.

4. Final Images & Keepsakes

#SheerMoment: You’ll walk away with a few beautifully edited digital images…perfect for social media, gifts or just a confidence boost.

#SheerExperience: This is about more than digital images. You’ll enjoy a personal photo reveal an hour after your session, fully retouched images, and options for albums, wall art, or collections. You’ll have something tangible that you can flip through or look back on for years to come, reminding you every day that you are bold, sexy and confident.

5. The Investment

#SheerMoment: Affordable, fast, and fun. A great way to see a sexy version of yourself without committing to a full-day session. Typically $999, but less when offered as a one day themed event.

#SheerExperience: A bigger investment, but worth every penny. From professional hair and makeup to guided posing, multiple shooting spaces and luxury albums. The experience is designed to celebrate you and create images that make your girlfriends jealous, your partner want to jump on you & you say “Holy Shit, I did this and look sexy!”

Which One Should You Choose?

It comes down to what works for your life right now. Want a quick, flirty session? #SheerMoment is perfect. Want the full pampering experience with hair, makeup, guided posing, an album and a variety of looks? #SheerExperience is for you.

Either way, I want you to see yourself as the confident, sexy and badass human you truly are.

Because…you deserve this.

Boudoir Photography Isn’t About Them... It’s About YOU!

When most people think of boudoir photography, they imagine it as a gift. A sexy wedding surprise. An anniversary present. A Valentine’s Day “I hope THEY like it” kind of thing.

But let’s get this straight right now: boudoir is not just for your partner. It’s for you.

You don’t need a reason to do this for yourself.

Boudoir is Self-Love in Action

This isn’t about impressing someone else. It’s about reclaiming how you see yourself. How you feel in your body. How you show up in your own life.

Boudoir photography is a chance to finally look in the mirror and say:

• “I am worthy of being seen.”

• “I deserve to feel confident, sexy and strong.”

• “This moment is mine, and I don’t need anyone’s permission.”

When you choose to book a boudoir session for yourself, everything changes. There’s no performance. No “what will they think?” Just you…raw, real and fully yourself.

The Confidence You Walk Away With

Here’s the thing: boudoir photography doesn’t just stay in the studio.

When you step into that space unapologetically, the energy follows you everywhere. You’ll notice it when you speak louder, laugh harder, walk taller and stop second guessing yourself.

It’s not just photos…it’s proof that you don’t have to shrink yourself anymore. Proof that you are enough exactly as you are. Proof that you can take up space without apology.

Why Doing It for YOU Is the Most Powerful Choice

Yes, you can gift your photos to someone else if you want to. But the experience itself? That belongs entirely to you. And that’s what I’ve created Sheer for.

It’s your space. Your story. Your bold decision to step in front of the camera and embrace the woman you’ve always been.

Because boudoir isn’t about transforming into someone else. It’s about embracing the woman who’s carried so much, given so much and quieted her own desires for too long.

She’s ready now. She deserves the spotlight. And boudoir gives her that moment to shine.

Ready to Say Yes to Yourself?

If you’ve been wondering whether boudoir is something you can do “just for yourself,” the answer is simple: hell yes!

That’s not just a good reason…it’s the best reason.

Let this be your celebration. Your reconnection. Your radical yes.

I’m here to guide you through every step and create a boudoir experience that’s 100% yours.

👉 Contact me today to start planning your session.
This isn’t about them.
It’s about you.

Why Everyone Deserves a Boudoir Experience: Miss M's Story

Have you ever thought about booking a boudoir session but kept putting it off? Maybe you’ve told yourself “someday” or worried you’d be too nervous, too exposed or just not ready yet.

One of my recent clients felt the exact same way. She finally said YES to a boudoir session with Sheer Photography and her story is the perfect reminder of why every woman deserves this experience.

What Made Her Finally Say Yes?

“Honestly, it was just the giveaway on Facebook. BUT now that I’ve done it, I’d recommend it a million times over! If you need to, do the savings option before your shoot or the payment plans after. Either way, it’s worth it.”

Sometimes, all it takes is that little nudge to finally give yourself permission.

Excited + Nervous (and That’s Normal!)

Leading up to her shoot, she admitted:
“I was both excited and nervous…probably more nervous. I had an ex take boudoir photos of me before (definitely NOT the same quality as Sheer), so I had a little experience. But the experience at Sheer was far better and the pictures are absolutely amazing!”

Feeling nervous is normal, but the right experience completely changes the game!

The Biggest Surprise

“The way that as soon as I saw Jen, all the doubts and jitters melted away. I thought to myself, ‘We’ve got this and it’s about to be really fun!’”

That’s exactly how it should feel…a boudoir session isn’t about stress, it’s about freedom, fun and feeling like yourself again.

Seeing the Photos for the First Time

“When I saw my images, I was absolutely blown away! I did the whole ‘kick your legs and cover your mouth in shock’ thing. My husband even thought something was wrong until he saw them too!”

That moment when women finally see themselves the way the rest of the world sees them…is pure magic!

Her Advice to Women on the Fence

“If you’ve been on the fence for years like I was… be like Nike and ‘Just Do It.’ It’s worth it. On a bad day, you can look back at your pictures and remember: YOU ARE THAT WOMAN!

Don’t worry about being almost (or completely) naked around someone new. Jen makes it feel like you’ve known her forever. I even told my husband, ‘I was completely naked and didn’t feel weird AT ALL!’

And honestly? If you have someone to share the pictures with, you can send them at the most inappropriate times and have a little fun with it. 🥵🫦”

Why This Matters for YOU

Boudoir isn’t just about sexy photos. It’s about confidence, freedom and claiming your space as a woman who deserves to feel powerful and desired…on her own terms.

👉 If you’ve been waiting for “someday,” this is your sign.
👉 If you’ve been nervous, know that you’re not alone and you’ll walk out grinning.
👉 If you’ve ever thought, “I want to feel like THAT woman,” the answer is simple: you already are her.

All you need to do is say YES!

✨ 💋 If your heart is whispering YES, trust it. Start by sending me a message…I’ll take care of the rest.
