Q: How did you first hear of Rachel Jasmine Studio and what made you want to book with us?
A: I saw the giveaway post for a session on Facebook and normally I ignore the suggested posts as they come up like that because it’s either a scam, not in my area, or something I’m not interested in but the ad instantly caught my eye because the photograph used in the ad was stunning! So it got me looking into the RJS page and I was captivated by the beautiful pictures I saw of some real, raw and beautiful women embracing their beauty!
Seeing Rachel’s incredible talent and looking through her page I got the gist of how she’s all for empowering women and them embracing their beauty and I’m all for that!! The world needs more women supporting and uplifting women. She sends such a positive message it really encouraged me to apply for the giveaway to get the chance to work with her and treat myself to a much needed boudoir shoot.
Q: What was your initial reason for booking?
A: Loving your body postpartum is so hard, I’m a mama to 4 and it’s something I have truly struggled with. I have been on the journey of learning to love it and wanted to do something for myself to embrace the body that carried these 4 beautiful babies of mine and to get my spark back!
Q: Did you have any expectations going into the shoot? What were they?
A: My expectations were for me to be extremely nervous, uncomfortable in my own skin (because the postpartum trenches are rough). Boy was I wrong! I was far from nervous, Rachel made me so comfortable and had a special way of complimenting me and making me feel so beautiful while shooting. It was like snapping pictures with your best friend she’s so personable and fun. I also felt super beautiful and sexy in my own skin for the first time in what feels like forever.
Q: What was it like seeing your images for the first time?
A: My jaw literally dropped, I truly have never felt more beautiful. I thought I would be sitting there judging and being hard on myself and I was literally amazed at how beautiful I looked in every single photo. It was literally impossible to narrow down my favorites because I truly loved them all and not one did I look bad in, in the slightest. I saw myself in a whole new light. I never lost my spark as a mom, I’ve only grown more beautiful.
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: Omg it really has! I don’t even know where to begin to explain how bad I needed that session I came out feeling like a how new woman, beautiful, confident, happy and fearless! Seeing my gallery really has helped bring my spark back and my confidence. It has helped my body image as a women greatly, Rachel captured all the best angles of this postpartum body that I didn’t think were beautiful but I got to see them in a new light. And they are beautiful, this mamas still got it. Having kids didn’t ruin my body, it made it more beautiful. Every stretch mark, piece of loose skin and roll is magic and these photos really made me realize and appreciate that and my body for all it has done.
