Confidence is the most beautiful thing a woman can wear. I was recently contacted by a gentleman who wanted to book a photo session for his wife to help her realize just how beautiful she was not only to the world but most importantly to him.
I had worked with her husband (David) previously so he was not only familiar with my work but also with me. He told me that his bride struggled with confidence after having children and did not feel as alluring or sexy as she once did. I suggested that he be a part of the session because her comfort level was instrumental to creating the beautiful images I had in mind.
I met this couple (David and Lizandra) at one of the most beautiful state parks in Florida-Koreshan State Park- and we had a brief discussion so that Lizandra could get to know me a little bit before we just jumped into taking photos. I gave her an idea of what I wanted to capture and also asked her what she had in mind or types of images she wanted. Since we had a 3 hour window there was plenty of time for outfit changes and multiple locations inside the park. I assured her that I would be cognizant of any areas of her body she was not comfortable with and that her images would be flattering.
Over the course of the next few hours, I saw her confidence growing with every new location in the park and she actually took charge and was telling David how she wanted him to pose. It was obvious that this lovely lady was living in the moment and was not experiencing any anxiety or confidence issues.
After we left the park we went to another location where we captured some intimate and tasteful couples photos. Since the photo session I have received numerous text and emails from both David & Lizandra about what a wonderful experience is was for BOTH of them.
We are already planning another session in the near future.
