I've followed Sheer Photography on instagram for a few years and everyday I see pictures of such gorgeous women. I was ecstatic to know that I'd get to be apart of the beautiful women they photograph. Once reality sank in I realized that I was not at all ready for this experience! I'm very awkward and I thought to myself, a boudior photoshoot would be insane for me to do! I never felt so nervous in my entire life but when I came in for my session Jen and Brian made me feel at home and my nerves instantly calmed down. They were so welcoming and explained everything we'd be doing and Jen helped me practice my "sexy face". Once I changed into my first outfit my nerves went back up again! I felt pretty awkward to do the first few pictures but thankfully Jen was down with me so I could mimic her moves and it became so much fun! For as self conscious as I am about myself I didn't think there'd be a single picture that I'd like. When I came in for my reveal my 1 1/2 year old daughter got to have a little play date with their beautiful daughter and Brian while Jen showed me my pictures! They had an awesome slide show made up of all my pictures and I just couldn't believe how amazing I looked! I cannot wait until I get my pictures I ordered! I have never seen a bad picture posted by sheer photography, they really know how to bring out the beauty in women (& men!) of all different shapes and sizes. Jen and Brian are the most kind hearted people and are absolutely amazing at what they do. I highly recommend booking a session with them as soon as possible! I know I'll definitely be booking another session! Thank you guys so much!😘
Miss M
LOVE what Miss M had to say about her experience
"So before My session, I was a nervous wreck! I was so worried about how the pictures were going to turn out and if I was going to look stupid in them. I really wanted to look hot and feel good about my self, but I was nervous. When I got to the studio, I got even more nervous! Haha my name was on the chalk board as I walked in and reality started sinking in that I was really going to do this and quite a few people were going to see! You guys made me feel so welcome and so comfortable though. I got a glass of wine and that calmed my nerves a little bit. I got into my outfit and said this is it! I walked my nervous butt over to the couch and started taking it all in! After the first couple of pictures, I started to relax. Jen and Brian were so helpful by telling me how to pose, showing me how to pose, positioning my body for me if I needed it, and by telling me what looked good and what didn't. Through out the entire shoot, Jen and Brian gave me compliments left and right and it really boosted my confidence and made me feel great! I felt like a true model! Everything just started falling into place and I was relaxed and just having a blast! After the shoot, I had never felt better. I felt like a total hottie and a rockstar! When I came to my reveal, I was amazed at the girl I was looking at on the screen. I am never too fond looking at pictures of myself, but the pictures you took of me were absolutely stunning, and for once, I looked at a picture of myself and said "DAMN, I AM HOT!" It was the greatest feeling ever, and just the boost I've needed lately. I can't thank you guys enough for making this the most fun, relaxing, and enjoyable experience I've ever had! I would do this over 100 times! Thank you guys for being so amazing and helping me realize HOW BEAUTIFUL I AM ! "

Couples Boudoir
Check out this sexy couple and what they had to say about their session.
So I originally saw all of Sheer Photography's photos online through mutual friends. I thought they were absolutely beautiful!
I had never seen a boudoir shoot done quite so good. I eventually worked up the courage to get one done. The original plan was to surprise my boyfriend at the time but he was curious how everything worked and ended up going to the consult with me. Jennifer had suggested maybe we sneak him into a few photos. We ended up actually convincing him to do the shoot as a couples shoot! It was such a great experience!
Brian and Jennifer are an amazing team and made us both feel so comfortable. Jennifer's help with posing was a big thing for me especially since I wasn't quite confident on how to do that. And Brian knew just what angles to get the photos! They came out amazing!
It made us feel closer as a couple when we left. And both of us were so excited the whole day, it was like our whole mood changed. We'd love to get back whenever we could! It was fun and sexy and the memories will last a lifetime! We appreciate everything you guys do! It was beyond worth it!

#SheerGirl Miss M
Miss M is one of our beautiful #SheerGirl spokesmodels and has done a few sessions with us. This is what she had to say about her most recent #SheerMoment..."I just want to start off by saying I Freaking love Sheer! Jen and Brian are the most down to earth people I have met in my life, I think of them as my Sheer Besties. I love everything about every one of my Sheer visits. Each time I step in front of their camera it gives me this sense of sexiness I mean lights camera BarbieToes! I've also learned that I do Sheer for me, myself and I! I love how it makes me feel as a woman!"
Our mentor session with Miranda Parker
As many of you know, we moved to a new studio in March 2016. With this new studio, came a TON of extra space that we weren't used to having. We went from our little garage studio to a 2400+ sq. ft. shooting space. When we first started shooting here we felt a little overwhelmed with all this extra room. So, we hired the beautiful and talented Miranda Parker to come to our studio for a posing mentor session. We are beyond thrilled with the changes and variety she brought to our posing! Here are some of the amazing images we got from our time together. Thank you to Miss R for being an amazing model for the day!

After #BodyLove 2.0
The #BodyLove projects that we do are something that we hold very close to our heart. The first time we did it, we wanted women to embrace their "flaws". If I asked you to name 10 things you love about yourself, I know it would be hard to come up with enough good qualities or features. But, if I asked you to name 10 things you didn't like about yourself, I'm sure it would be pretty easy. We are women, we always put everyone else before ourselves and never have time to look at all the good in ourselves. With our #BodyLove projects and every boudoir session we do, we want the women who come to us to feel special, to embrace their femininity and sexuality, to feel like they are enough, to know that they are gorgeous, sexy and desirable. We want to help bring that spark out of you that maybe you've never seen before or maybe you haven't seen in a very long time.
We had 7 women come to us for #BodyLove2.0 who were nervous as hell and scared they wouldn't look good on camera, but they trusted us to show them just how sexy they were. We only had 15 minutes to get some amazing photos with each woman and help them see how freakin' HOTT they are! So, below are 4 images from each of the women who participated in our #BodyLove project along with what they thought of themselves before they got half naked for Sheer Photography and how they felt after their session and seeing their images.
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror I saw me, as a mom, girlfriend, friend. I saw happy and sad. I saw all my imperfections. A typical day for me is waking up, getting my son ready for school, watch him walk on his bus. Then I get myself ready and go to work. Come home to my family, have dinner, a little fun and finally bed time. It's not a glamorous life, but it's mine. And I love it! After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I definitely feel more confident in myself. I didn't expect the confidence it gave me. I believe every woman must do this for themselves. They deserve it! When I look at my images, I see a sexy woman!" ~ Miss C
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror I saw a girl trying to become a women. I saw a girl who's insecure and who didn't fully know who she was. I wanted to see what others saw. I wanted to see my true beauty. I wanted to see my worth. A typical day for me, I get up, get my four year old ready for school (usually rushing) throw on some makeup and black clothes (I'm a hairdresser) let out the dog and rush out the door. I work 6-8 hours at the salon, pick up my daughter, head to the gym, home to cook, eat, pack lunches, take a bath, bed, then repeat! After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I definitely feel more confident in myself. I see a sexy, strong, beautiful woman now!" ~ Carly
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror I saw a body that defeats me. I tryed my best to love my body, but it really just seemed impossible. How do you love something you want to change so much? A typical day for me is, wake up, clean, get myself ready, wake up my husband and daughter, go to work, get off and pick up my daughter, go home and cook, do some more cleaning, get the little one fed and bathed put her to bed, work out, and lastly wait up for my husband to have some alone time with him. After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I feel the most confident in myself that I've felt in years. I now see a version of myself that I've never seen before." ~Miss C
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror, honestly, I saw imperfections that aren't easily remedied. I saw stretched out skin, rolls, and chunkier arms than I would like. I know what my pre-baby body looked like and I can imagine it still and it makes me sad. I was angry with myself for making excuses for so long, my body used to take care of itself, but know I have to work on it. I would look in the mirror and tell myself "hey at least you aren't as fat as I was two months ago!" I am trying to love myself again. Doing a session was gonna be my gift to myself when I got my body back, but it seems it's gonna take longer than I thought. A typical day for me is Monday thru Friday I get up at 6am and get myself and my daughter ready. I go to work at my new job from 8-5. I come home and make dinner, do chores, spend time with my daughter and dog. I prep my lunch for the next day and my clothes, as well as my daughters. Then I normally shower and have myself and my daughter in bed no later than 9. Every other weekend my daughter goes with her father so those weekends I pamper myself by doing chores and spending time with friends. The weekends I have my daughter are for her, chores, and family! And that's my life in a nut shell. After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I definitely feel more confident in myself. I have been building my confidence back up over time for a while now. Signing up for #BodyLove was a way to launch myself out of that comfort zone I have become overly accustom to. The ease I felt once I stepped into the unforgiving daylight for my session was welcoming. Jen advised me to take a deep breath and with that exhale went all my insecurities. Simultaneously, I felt my renewed confidence flood my body and I could breath freely again! All of this is due to BodyLove, Jen, and Brian for their mission to revive the Confidence in all women. When I look at the final products from #BodyLove I feel blessed. The pictures capture the strong independent woman I have become and pay homage to the remarkable body that has sustained and given life. I respect my body more after participating in #BodyLove. I knew I had a distorted view of myself and that I need to shift my focus. These final products from Sheer have done just that, they have taught me to love myself again." ~ Miss C
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror I used to see a body I wasn't happy with and stretch marks from my daughter. I have been working on my body and now I see myself as a beautiful person with curves and a love for life. I carry my stretch marks as a trophy so many women can't carry a child and I have been blessed and done it. I'm loving myself again. A typical day for me is attending school part time and working full time with rotating days off and on. After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I definitely feel more confident in myself. I do not see myself now as just a mom and a nurse! I feel like a sexy individual and I feel like everyone should get a chance to feel amazing like this. Jen and Brian were absolutely amazing and made the experience fun and enjoyable! Can't wait to be able to come back and do it again!!!" ~ Emily
"Before #BodyLove, When I look in the mirror I see happiness and passion. I see love and strength. I see the reflection of a woman that has lived life to the fullest every step of the way. A typical day typically consists of work as a hairstylist from 9am to any hour of the evening. Depending on the day my husband or I will cook dinner and have a family meal when we both are home. Our morning routines are simple -- shower and style hair & make up as fast as a 3 year old will let you. Evening routines include board games or jigsaw puzzles, incredibly playful bathtime for our boy and some quiet time before bed. Everyday is full of love and laughter as corny as that sounds, life really feels like a dream come true. After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I walked out of the shoot with a different air to me. A weight I didn't realize I carried was lifted. For the first time just the feeling of being a woman felt STRONG and BRAVE. I think for some those feelings come in many different ways but for me it happened while I shed some cloths and let some inner beauty escape. My images completely shocked me. I see myself in a way I never felt; sexy!!! It's amazing that an image can show such depth to me, my inner beauty shining outwardly. They are drop. Dead. Gorgeous." ~ Miss E
"Before #BodyLove, When I looked in the mirror I unfortunately saw someone that used to be in great shape, but after 2 babies and a divorce, a woman that has lost the fiery spirit she once possessed. A typical day for me is getting up with my 9 year old son and 7 year old daughter. After running around getting them ready for school, I barely have the time to put myself together. I never left the house without makeup. Now, I am lucky if I can put coverup and mascara on before walking out the door (usually though it's on my way to work...). I work full time at an eye doctor's office doing the billing and coding. After work is Mommy mode, getting the kids to their multiple activities then home for homework and dinner. Once the kids are taken care of and tucked in, I collapse on the couch to watch a movie or read a book...most likely falling asleep! After my #BodyLove photo shoot, I see a woman who while not society's version of perfect is far from being the gross person she thought she was when she looked at herself in the mirror. I see a woman who embraced the moment & allowed herself to be confident & feel sexy." ~ Miss N

Miss A's #SheerExperience
"Leading up to the session, I felt anxious and excited to do it. I had talked to a fellow #SheerBeauty about her shoot so I knew I was in good hands. I was a little nervous about how I was going to naturally react to strangers taking pictures of me and seeing me next to naked, but Brian & Jen were very easy going and made me very comfortable. I'm happy I was able to relax so my pictures didn't turn out like I was stiff."
"My favorite part of my #SheerExperience was having Jen there to help me pose, and tell me exactly what to do. I was able to really understand what they wanted me to do, just by a few words from her. I think the best part - aside from seeing the end product - was that we were able to joke and have fun, and it wasn't all serious business.
"After my boudoir session with Sheer, I felt empowered and genuinely beautiful. I was even more excited to see how the prints were going to come out, after seeing some of the images on the camera, I couldn't believe how they looked! I felt like a supermodel, for sure.
If you are even thinking about booking a session, then book it. The fact that you are considering it, means you want to do it enough. Don't doubt yourself and how you feel about your body, Jen helps you pose and do things with your body to help emphasize the parts you love and hide the parts you aren't all that fond of (we all have them). Most of all, if you aren't doing it for your guy (because he will obviously love these pictures) and you're doing it for yourself, just think, when you are old and wrinkly, you'll have something to look at and remind yourself how hot you looked! (that was my thinking anyways)"

Miss C's #SheerExperience
Check out the gorgeous Miss C!!! We had an amazing time together, from laughing at her consult, to running around the mall and Amore for the perfect lingerie, an amazing #SheerExperience (hair and makeup by Bianca Heasley) and her beauty reveal where she LOVED more pictures than she ever expected to. I love everything about what we do at Sheer and helping bring out the confidence in the women that trust us with such an intimate experience. Thank you Miss C for allowing us to share some of our favorites!
Here's what Miss C thought about her #SheerExperience...
"My #SheerExperience was INCREDIBLE!!! Before my session I was a little nervous but totally ready thanks to the help of Jen prior to my session. The best part of the whole experience was that the atmosphere wasn't stiff or creepy (lol!). We had a blast, moods were light, and we laughed. I was most nervous about my own insecurities about how I looked, but at my reveal, I would say I have a new confidence in myself. I felt sexy, beautiful and more feminine. My advice for anyone thinking about booking a #SheerExperience is to be a "yes woman". Just say yes and do it, because if you decide not to do it, you'll most likely regret it. You don't have anything to lose. (Except maybe your clothes)." Xoxo, Miss C

2016 New Years Resolutions
Resolutions...this has got to be one of my least favorite words! At the beginning of every year I plan on doing some amazing things in the new year...lose weight, stay organized, plan better, eat healthier, etc... The past couple years my resolution was to not make any resolutions! That's easy enough, right?!?! Why even bother with dang resolutions if you know you will never stick to them?!?! But...what's the fun in that? Resolutions are made to be broken, to challenge yourself, to see if you will actually follow through on something, to help make you a better person...it doesn't really matter what your resolution is. It matters that you are living life to its fullest potential, that you are enjoying every single day you have with the amazing people you surround yourself with. So this year my resolutions are...
Enjoy Today • Relax More • Challenge Myself • Try New Things • Do What I Love • Eat Better • Choose Happy • Love More
I'm hoping these resolutions will lead me to a fun and prosperous 2016! I'm also hoping you can take some or all of these resolutions with you to make your 2016 super fabulous, so I've included a super awesome printable for you to download for yourself. Go ahead and click on it, download it, print it out, hang it on your fridge, frame it for the wall, take it to the office, just make sure you put it some where you will see it everyday to remind yourself to live life to the fullest!
Xoxo, Jen

Miss K's #SheerExperience
We've shot clients ages 19-59, and the one thing we always hear is the renewed self confidence each has experienced after seeing their images. Whether you want to remember the you of today, or be reminded of just how desirable you are, we guarantee this will be one of the most amazing things you have done for YOU.
This session was Miss K's second #SheerExperience with us and we were so happy to have her come back again this year for another confidence boost.
Here's what Miss K had to say about her #SheerExperience..."A friend of mine asked me to “like” Sheer Photography’s Facebook page. I hit like not really knowing anything about boudoir photography. I loved what I saw but never thought that I would be brave enough to do it! I wanted to be someone who was comfortable in my body even if I wasn’t a size 2.
My husband sees me as a sexy, beautiful woman but I haven't seen myself in that light in a long time. I finally decided that it was about time that I saw myself as beautiful instead of the housewife and mom of 2 pushing 50. I was so nervous and out of my comfort zone but not for long. Jen takes the time to get to know you, taking the time to find what makes you tic and the features that you truly love about yourself (or what your partners loves about you). The day of the shoot Brian and Jen quickly put me at ease. They truly love not only what they do but each other and it shows in their work.
This photo shoot was about me giving myself permission to be the sexy woman my husband sees when he looks at me. I could not have done it without Brian and Jen and their amazing photo skills. I guarantee that no matter how you feel when you walk into their studio, you will leave feeling empowered and beautiful."
Thank you Miss K for allowing us to share your images and your story. You are beautiful!

Miss D's #SheerExperience
We had an amazing session with the gorgeous and curvy Miss D a few months ago (I'm a little behind on blogging).
This is what Miss D had to say about her #SheerExperience...
Read moreHappy Birthday Miss M
Since I haven't blogged a session in awhile and it's the gorgeous #SheerBeauty's birthday today...let's share some of our favorites from her #SheerExperience and wish her a very happy birthday!!! We love you Miss M!!!!
Read moreDesire...
Desire...What does it mean to you?
Webster defines desire as the feeling of wanting something.
For me, it's much more than that. The other day Brian asked me when the last time I felt desirable was? Six months ago I would have said, "uhh....never." But these days, "I feel desirable almost everyday."
Miss A's Anonymous Sheer Experience
Miss A sent us a Facebook message about how SHE NEEDED to have a Sheer Experience.
Read moreEvery mom deserves some ME time!
Miss R was the winner of our Mother's Day Momination!!! As a Mother's Day giveaway, Sheer Photography offered one LUCKY MOM a chance to win the full Sheer Experience. The Sheer Experience isn't just a one day kind of thing...about a month before your session we like to meet with you to talk about outfit ideas, look through Pinterest to see what type of images you are drawn to, answer questions and just talk about who you are and what you want to become during your shoot. We understand this isn't something you do everyday...it's okay to be nervous and ask questions. We are here to help you through the WHOLE process.
Finally, it's shoot day...nerves are high, excitement is bubbling, you enjoy being pampered by our hair and makeup team, we go through your outfits together and finalize a plan. You change into your first outfit and we get started!!! Hopefully you took some Advil before you came, cuz we are gonna make your back hurt. "Pop that booty out!!!" This is your time to get outta the house, feel sexy and not have a care in the world (except for being nervous as all hell).
A few weeks after your shoot, we invite you back to the studio for your Premier Ordering Appointment!! This is the moment you have been waiting for!!! So many women are more nervous to see their pictures than they were to take them. Most women can't believe the pictures are them. It's so great to see yourself the way everyone else sees you!
Like most women, Miss R works full time and never takes any time to do things for herself. This was her chance to let go and be sexy!
This is what she had to say about her Sheer Experience..."Having a boudoir session with Jen and Brian was one of the best experiences I've had! I have always loved boudoir photography but never thought I would do it.
Being a mother, wife, and working full time as a nurse I don't make enough time for myself. My Sheer session was the perfect opportunity for some "me" time! I was nervous but as soon as I had my consultation and we discussed what to expect, what to wear, photo ideas, and all of my questions were answered, I couldn't wait for my session!
The girls that did my hair and makeup were very sweet and did an excellent job, and during my session Jen and Brian made me feel completely comfortable and beautiful. They coached me on what to do, and I had so much fun the entire time! My photos were ready quickly and I LOVED every single image!
Jen and Brian know what they're doing and do an amazing job at it! It's something I would absolutely love to do again, maybe even a couples session with my hubby! I highly recommend Sheer Photography!"
Hair by Bianca Heasley. Makeup by Jodi Ciminero.
We loved having Miss R in the studio and showing her how beautiful she is!!! We hope to see you back for a couples session soon!!!
