Q: How did you first hear of Rachel Jasmine Studio and what made you want to book with us?

A: I first heard of Rachel Jasmine Studio years ago, I honestly think we had some mutual Facebook friends and I joined her business page and was hooked! I loved the way she spoke about her clients and the confidence she instills in everyone!

Q: What was your initial reason for booking?

A: I had been watching and waiting and hoping I could make this a reality for myself. Then one day I saw an email come through about a contest to win a shoot! I thought to myself, I’m sure she has gotten THOUSANDS of entries for this giveaway, but I thought to myself, what’s the worst that could happen? The day I got the email that I had won, I literally screamed out loud! It was dream come true.

Q: Did you have any expectations going into the shoot? What were they?

A: My biggest expectation was just to come out of the shoot loving myself more. I knew that if anyone could make me see myself in a whole new amazing way it would be Rachel! I had my shoot on my birthday and it will forever one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten for myself.

Q: What was it like seeing your images for the first time?

A: I was actually vibrating with excitement, going through all of the amazing shots, I had to keep reminding myself that these were pictures of me! Little plain old Mariah. I can’t stop thinking about them!

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 definitely see myself as more of a woman, and not a little girl. I felt so empowered and badass and that has definitely transferred into my day to day life. I actually could have cried while looking at the gallery of photos.

Q: Would you recommend Rachel Jasmine Studio for the luxury boudoir experience to others?

A: I have been recommending it to anyone and everyone that will listen. I’m trying to convince all the women in my family and all of my friends to book a shoot. Easily one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Q: What advice would you give to another woman considering the boudoir experience with Rachel Jasmine Studio?

A: Don’t let your own thoughts get in the way of doing this for yourself. I had the same feelings of inadequacy leading up to the shoot, but all of that fades the second you meet Rachel and Kacey. Now I wonder why I was so nervous in the first place!

Q: Is there anything else you’d like to add to your interview?

A: I just want to thank Rachel and Cassidy and Kacey for making this one of my core memories for the rest of my life! And you can count on me coming back for sure!
