What was originally holding you back from booking a session? After this opportunity was presented, I just wanted to dive in and try something new. The common thing I saw though, was everyone looked confident, proud, beautiful and sexy. It inspired me more to do this photo session. What were you most nervous about for your session? I was nervous that I would freeze in front of the camera! I had only done one other photo shoot before, and I had my boyfriend modeling with me, so it was easier to have someone to interact with.
Doing this photo session, I was worried I would just be a deer in headlights having to pose by myself. How did you feel about yourself before your session? Before my session, I have never thought of myself as anything special, just average. I felt alright in the clothes I wear, but feared showing what was underneath. The scars I have, the not perfectly toned areas, and my stretch marks were something I always kept hidden.
I have come to accept that these are apart of my growing body, but it was always something I feared to show at the same time. Describe your experience: This was one of the most fun things I have ever done! I was nervous, but excited when I arrived. When I put on my body suit for the beginning of the session, I instantly felt great about what I was doing.
This was one of my favorite pieces I have. I wear it with pants, skirts, or just when I am dancing around the house. I felt great with what I was wearing, and it made me feel more confident going into the session. As we went though the different outfits, I became more and more confident with my body. I felt comfortable wearing my favorite pieces, and I loved getting to show them off! This blazer is the one that he wears for all our anniversary moments, so it was special to me to wear for this session.
Justyn was so supportive through everything, and was the true master. She helped me choose my outfits, she was able to guide me through poses, s he was able to make me laugh and relax. How did you feel about yourself after your session? After my session, I feel so proud and powerful. I felt that I took ownership of my body, and I was ready to show the world that I am not just average, but I am beautiful.
