Booking a SheerExperience had been on my mind for a few years but it always seemed like for one reason or another, it wasn't the right time and I would abandon the idea. One day I was talking with a friend who shared that she had photos taken as a gift to her husband-to-be before their wedding. She shared those photos and I was captivated. To say they were beautiful was an understatement and I knew that was my sign to book with Sheer. Jen and Brian's portfolio perfectly captured what I had imagined for my own future photoshoot. I had been searching for a photographer and a style that seemed to align with my style and knew immediately that this was it.
The day of the shoot finally arrived and while I was mostly excited, I did have some small moments of nerves. Walking into the studio immediately put my mind at ease. In talking with Jen and Brian about my vision for the day, the connection was almost instant and I knew I was working with two exceptionally talented people. My expectations were that I would get a handful of good photos but what actually happened is dozens of beautiful photos and a day that ended up being more fulfilling than I ever anticipated. When I was shown the first few photos taken, I was in shock and awe with how amazing I looked and felt. I really didn't know that was possible. I felt empowered, sexy and confident. Jen and Brian are such experts and absolutely brought out the best in me. The whole photo shoot felt like a celebration of embracing my sexuality, my body and my confidence. As Jen said, "you will get to see yourself the way others do" and that felt like the mantra of the day.
I did this photo shoot to memorialize this time in my life, so that I will always remember how strong and confident I felt at 42. After waiting years to finally do this, I am now eagerly awaiting a time when I can do it again. I will treasure these photos for years to come and I am so grateful to Jen and Brian for guiding me in this incredible experience. I would encourage anyone who is interested to book a shoot. It can be scary to finally commit but I promise it will be a beautiful, soul filling experience and one that you won't regret.
