Just Because

San Jose Bay Area Boudoir Photographer

Unfortunately:

I cannot tell you how amazing you will look.

I can’t go over all the fun things we will do and try.

I won’t be able to explain how pampered you’ll feel having your makeup professionally applied, or how much we’ll dote on you, our supermodel for the day.

We won’t be able to discuss the body parts you are most fond of and want to accentuate, nor will we be able to discuss any area you might want to keep under wraps.

We won’t be able to talk about your opinions on airbrushing and what you may want touched up and want you would like left alone.

I won’t be able to assure you that those 5-10 extra pounds you were hoping to lose first really don’t matter and that you will look amazing just as you are, right now!

You won’t be able to share with me what you think is sexy and what you really want out of this shoot.

There is no way I can express just how much you deserve to feel sexy and desirable. Nor will I be able to tell you just how much you will get out of such an amazing experience.

Nope. You’re apprehensions, your questions, you nerves, and that little flutter of excitement in the pit of your stomach that you get each time you think of yourself looking all hot in those heals or handing that special someone a WHOLE ALBUM of you looking so amazing, well there is nothing I can do about any of that.

Unless… you give me a call or shoot me an email. I completely understand all the thoughts that may be holding you back, I really truly do. However I would absolutely love to meet with you and go over all these things. No pressure, just honest information about what you can expect. Plus this will give you a chance to meet me and get to know me a bit better. Let’s face it, no one really likes the idea of being half naked in front of a perfect stranger. It’s a good thing I’m not perfect and if we meet I won’t be a stranger anymore either. Ha! Just remember I cannot contact you without you first dropping me a line. There is still time to surprise that significant other with some steamy photos for Valentines Day!

So take a deep breath and go for it!

I look forward to chatting with you,

My husband posted a link on Facebook this morning to an ad from the 1960’s called Wate-On. I thought it was great and did some research on this product. This was a large campaign featuring many starlets and beauty queens.

It’s amazing how times have changed along with the populous view of what is beautiful. Personally I think a curvaceous figure is gorgeous and I long for curves in the right spot. Unfortunately my curves are on my hips and waste- wouldn’t be so bad if I was blessed with some upper endowment to even it all out but alas I am what is commonly called “The Pear”. Haha. I did however gain some bust line with the birth of my sons and happily sport a padded B cup, a long way from my AA’s days…Wahooo! It seems so strange to actually be considered “overweight” now. Many long to be “skinny” and as a girl who grew up on the skinny side it was not much fun. I was underweight do to years of medication and was cursed to drink Ensure in the hopes of putting on some pounds. Blech! Being called skinny all the time and being asked if I was anorexic was just as insulting as someone being called fat. It was hurtful and I longed for some curves.

The woman in this ad is not a skinny mini and yet look how gorgeous she is! I have heard for many years that most men actually like a little meat on the bones so why aren’t we embracing our true beauty more? I can assure you that your significant other finds you sexy the way you are right now. Enjoy it and by all means don’t let them call you skinny!
