Boudoirs – Me. Myself. Yours truly. The Photographer. Jen.

BIG changes are happening here at JSP.  The biggest?  BOUDOIRS!

While I will still take the occasional family/child/wedding for my close friends and long-time clients, my primary focus is now going to be intimate portraiture.  Boudoirs.  Sexy stuff.  Couples, ladies, guys, all of it.  Not only is this what I love doing the most, it also just so happens to be what I am best at.

To kick off my new wave of vixens is *gulp* self-portrait boudoirs.

Disclaimer: I’m not blogging these images to show off my hot bod.  Actually, quite the opposite.  I needed to know what it felt like to be in front of the camera.  To be exposed and vulnerable and nervous about it.  I’m so far from perfect it’s laughable – I have three kids, stretch marks, a new body that I’m not quite sure what to do with, fat, the whole thing.  But I also have something I didn’t have before – new confidence.  Before these photos I didn’t realize I had great legs!  And the booty that I hated so much…not so bad.

So yes, boudoirs are scary.  But they are also amazing.  Fun.  Inspiring.  Empowering.

I forced myself to blog these the same way I would blog anyone else’s.  They have minimal editing – some skin smoothing here and there, spot removal from where I banged up my knees rock climbing, and basic color boosting.  I am posting images that make me uncomfortable – but I am doing it to show that I get it.  I’m willing to step into my clients’ shoes to provide the absolute best experience possible for them, because we are the same people.  Imperfections are the new perfect.

Enjoy!
