Q: How did you first hear of Rachel Jasmine Studio and what made you want to book with us?
A: I originally learned of RJS through posts on FB from a good friend who shared a few of her shots. I was so impressed with the artistry of the photography, and how utterly gorgeous my friend looked. I joined Rachel’s page and private group and realized quickly that this was a great place to be, with women supporting and encouraging other women in the best way possible.

Q: What was your initial reason for booking?
A: My initial booking reason was more out of curiosity than anything. I had lost about 30 pounds (purposefully) and was heading into my middle 50’s so I thought this would be a great way to maybe, just maybe, finally see myself as my husband has all these years. I just had my 3rd shoot with Rachel a couple of weeks ago – may not be my last, either!!!

Q: Did you have any expectations going into the shoot? What were they?
A: Given a less-than-great experience with another boudoir photographer a few years prior, I probably went into Rachel’s session with some hesitation, hoping she could hide all my flaws. Once I arrived at the studio and met Rachel and Kasey, I knew I was in for a fun, relaxing day and I was most definitely not wrong. My most recent shoot with Rachel was at her newer location in Bernville and those 4 hours just flew on by. I left the studio feeling as though I just spent time with great girlfriends who put a little spring back in my step.

Q: What was it like seeing your images for the first time?
A: I couldn’t believe that was me in those photos…….. I’ve never had self-confidence in my appearance, even after I met and married my husband who tells me daily that I’m beautiful. I recently turned 59 (how on earth did that happen…lol) and happily won one of Rachel’s summer contests which led to my 3rd session with her. Going through the images with Cassidy literally brought tears to my eyes. I couldn’t wait to show my husband.

Q: Has anything changed for you since your boudoir experience and seeing your gallery? How has boudoir impacted your body image as a woman?
A: Looking at myself the way my husband sees me is amazing. I can’t believe that’s me in those photos. I still struggle with body image, even at my age, and particularly because I’ve gained weight back due to some ongoing minor health issues, but the photos, older and newer, are a fabulous reminder that hey, I look pretty good!!!

Q: Would you recommend Rachel Jasmine Studio for the luxury boudoir experience to others?
A: Absolutely – without hesitation. It’s one of the best things you can do for yourself!

Q: What advice would you give to another woman considering the boudoir experience with Rachel Jasmine Studio?
A: Rachel and her team see you as an individual, strong, beautiful woman. You will come out of your photo session feeling like you’ve never felt before. And that’s a powerful feeling.
