Q: How did you first hear of Rachel Jasmine Studio and what made you want to book with us?
A: I saw a pictorial of RJS shared by a Facebook friend. The images were truly captivating and highlighted all the best things of what it is to truly be a real woman. Racheal’s talent with lighting made the images even more stunning.

Q: What was your initial reason for booking?
A: As a woman over 50, society often puts aside the value of our feminine power and beauty. I wanted to show myself that the woman I have become from my experiences is just as amazing, if not even more so, than the 20’s version of me. And I was totally correct. This older, wiser me is the best version yet!

Q: Did you have any expectations going into the shoot? What were they?
A: I knew from my interactions with Racheal and her staff that I would be made to feel amazing and empowered to be just as I am, flaws and all. Despite medical setbacks leading up to the shoot itself I was shown much respect and made to feel so important and feminine.

Q: What was it like seeing your images for the first time?
A: I have not had my reveal as of yet. But I am sure it will be a hard choice picking the images for my collection. Every pose was so amazing and the feedback from Racheal during the shoot assured me I will be sooo pleased.

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: I feel as though I have finally settled into my feminine power. I have never really felt I was enough physically, always focused on this or that flaw, but after this experience I know that is just not so. My flaws and all are what makes me the real woman I am and apparently she is pretty damn fine!

Q: Would you recommend Rachel Jasmine Studio for the luxury boudoir experience to others?
A: I absolutely recommend this experience with RJS to all woman. Her studio and staff are top notch. The whole experience is about you as a woman and that is exactly how she makes you feel from the moment you book. Go do it and see the stunning you the world sees and not the one that lives inside your head.

Q: What advice would you give to another woman considering the boudoir experience with Rachel Jasmine Studio?
A: Relax into the experience from beginning to end. You are in great hands with RJS and you can totally rock the day as a the amazing woman you are. Have fun with it and prepare to be in awe of yourself.

Q: Is there anything else you’d like to add to your interview?
A: We are real women. Not the version television and media always put into our heads of what we should be. Every part of us, whether we find them unappealing or less, makes us the wonder we are. Those stretch marks? We earned them by bringing life into this world which is a miracle only our bodies can do. Those extra pounds? They give us womanly curves and show our softness to nurture those we love. Loving yourself as you are right now is the best gift you can give this world and is the only way to show our daughters the true strength they hold.
