I apologize to my FB followers because I'm reposting this one. It's too important not to share for those not on FB. ❤❤❤ Let's talk about #beforeandafter images. This beautiful woman happens to be my assistant and I just can't sing her praises enough. She is beautiful both inside and out. However, there were a few areas that she expressed that she would like my "help" with when processing her images. I don't show this to embarrass her (and she's fully aware that I'm using this as an example), but I wanted to show this to all the ladies out there that may be apprehensive about having boudoir photos taken. I will make you look like the best version of yourself. You can tell that I have fixed a few problem areas in the final image, but let's face it, unless you have a rock hard body with minimal body fat percentage then we all expand a little when lying down. That's just reality! And I don't feel like it's a true representation of what you really look like and is why I "help" those certain areas. The same goes for side arm. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, likes the way their side arm looks unless you're a bodybuilder and have some serious biceps you're trying to show off. So I take the liberty of tapping those in a tiny bit to take off the extra pounds the camera likes to give us. 💖 Those few things in conjunction with #flatteringposes are what makes for a stunning final image. I'm not going to lie, I need all the photoshop help I can get myself and there's no shame in my game. 😂 So please listen carefully... You ARE beautiful already. Stop worrying about those extra few pounds and just do it. You deserve beautiful images of yourself, both for you and for your partner. And if you're single, then just do it for YOU. You can't imagine the confidence boost that these women have had after a day of being pampered with professional hair and makeup and then feel like a model during their session; they will all tell you they felt GORGEOUS! If nothing else, I hope this post shows you that you can have a #boudoirsession, and it can be #CLASSY without a ton of skin showing... and that you will look AMAZING. 😘😘😘 http://jlritt.bigcartel.com (at Jennifer Rittenberry Photography)
