In this post we talk about a few things we always recommend to our clients as they prepare for their session.

Springtime, sun rooms, scribbles, and storms.

We don't just point the lens on you and expect you to know what to do. We walk you through every step, from posing to expression to where to put your hands.

Despite recent efforts to encourage body positivity and natural beauty, we still see countless ads featuring heavily photoshopped models, products that claim aging is the enemy, and social media filters that make your eyes bigger, cheeks brighter, and lips fuller.

Celebrate your feminine power.

I've been taking portraits for 30 years, and throughout that time my business, my process, and my work has evolved countless times. In the last few years I've shifted my focus towards Boudoir Photography- and I absolutely adore it.

“We used to work together and eventually I just asked him out… he said yes.”

“I am not someone who feels comfortable in front of a camera. But this past month I decided I wanted to do something fun and scary, and took a leap of faith and booked a session…”

I viewed my pictures and they are truly magical. To see what these sessions bring out in you… when you feel comfortable supported, safe and cared for by Jen & Evie… it's no wonder why they turn out so amazing.

PSA- Your body has creases. It has lines. And folds. And rolls. It is perfectly natural. Without them you can’t bend. They are part of you and they are a beautiful.

Bridal Sessions: Boudoir sessions are an amazing gift to give yourself (you’re planning a wedding, you deserve it) and to your fiancé!

I am so passionate about body positivity and I was thrilled to discuss my experience empowering women and navigating the difficult journey that is self love.

Equally daunting and rewarding, self portraiture has both intrigued and challenged me throughout the years. I have found the practice to hold limitless potential for creativity and expression, yet also cause a great deal of frustration. Still, I'm repeatedly drawn in by my excitement for the unexpected.

So you have been thinking about a sassy sexy boudoir session and you keep waiting for the right occasion. You're excited by the idea of it, but also SUPER nervous.

Let us dispel some common worries for you…

Alchemy in action is achievable! And so much magic and manifestation has occurred for me personally and professionally this year.

For a handful of years now my New Year’s practice has been to choose a word of the year. I’ve chosen words like Brave. Expansive. Dream.

In 2018 I started a new practice: The 365 Project. (Click to see 2018’s results.) An assignment for myself to shoot (at least) one photo everyday. It wound up being a beast of a creative and logistical endeavor - so much editing! - so when 2019 rolled around I took a year off.

January 2020, at my daughter’s urging, I picked the 365 Project back up. I thought it might be a challenge, but it couldn’t be any harder than my inaugural project, right?

As a small business owner, I’m not immune to hustle culture. Each year I’m told I need to book more clients. Post more content. Earn more money. Be grateful, yes. Be happy, please. But desire more. Do more. Be MORE.

I found myself thinking. “I am truly grateful for everything I have. Wait, I have enough.” And that led me to softly reclaim the perennial refrain:

“I am enough.”

In this podcast we listen to two very different stories of how Covid-19 played out in their lives and with their loved ones.

In this podcast we hear the voices of 17 people (plus my own) telling their stories of the pandemic world they live in. What are they doing? What are they thinking or feeling? What are they binge watching, eating, working on, what thing have they found that they do that has surprised them? Do you hear yourself in these voices?

How did Megan become a coach and a leader? How did she come up with the idea for Rockstar Camp? What were her motivations and what was the path that brought her here. I know that there is always interesting stories to hear when we ask about them. Her story is fascinating and insightful and a real inspiration for those who may still be wondering what they are going to do when they grow up. Sometimes the answers to what we want to do seem clear and then they aren’t. Then they seem clear again. Then they aren’t again. Life is funny that way. Cheers to discipline and perseverance and being scrappy! All of which Megan Jo talks about in this show.
