I used to feel worthless - boudoir photography client story
I am 33 yrs old and have been an esthetician since 2007.
I own a skin care and hair removal business in Rockford, IL.
I MAKE MY CLIENTS FEEL BETTER, SEXIER, SMOOTHER.
Even though I give so much to my clients, I don’t always give that same attention to myself.
I was in a long term relationship, which ended, dated a little bit and
JUST FELT WORTHLESS.
I was successful in my business, but a failure in my relationships. I was never the girl people would call pretty or receive compliments all the time.
ONE DAY A CLIENT MENTIONED MOLLY & ZEALOUS STILLS.
She said she needed to schedule her next appointment right before her shoot. After she got her pictures back she showed me and…
I WAS BLOWN AWAY!!!!
That was not the client I knew! She told me about her experience and I knew I wanted to feel that way!
Before the session I was a little nervous.
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO BE SEXY.
I DON’T KNOW MY BEST ANGLE.
I DON’T HAVE A RIPPED BODY.
But at the same time I was excited and wanted to try something I’d never done before and forget about
ALL MY INSECURITIES
When I walked in, I
INSTANTLY FELT
Molly’s good vibes.
The hair stylist was cool too! I’m in that same industry so I knew what I was in for with “hair and makeup”. They both made me feel so welcomed, champagne toast and they became my hype girls!!!
My hair and makeup turned out fabulous. I’m so used to my coworkers doing it for me that having someone else do it made me feel like a different person!
MOLLY PICKED OUT SOME GREAT OUTFITS FOR ME TO TRY ON.
IT’S LIKE SHE KNEW WHAT WOULD FIT MY BODY.
There were white sheets on the bed. Last-minute Molly asked if I was ok with the blue ones.
Like I had a clue.
BEST DECISION EVER!!!
I don’t have one particular moment that sticks out. The entire experience is something that I almost can’t even explain. I completely zoned out after the shoot started.
I WAS COMPLETELY IN THE MOMENT, DOING EVERYTHING MOLLY TOLD ME TO DO.
The entire process was unexpected to me!
I could have kept shooting all night long! I didn’t want that flow and feeling to stop!
IMMEDIATELY AFTER, I FELT LIKE A MILLION BUCKS!
I was so excited to see the pictures, I didn’t want to wait!!!
This experience has definitely changed me. I realized that how I see myself is different from the way other people see me. That I do have magic within me.
I would definitely recommend anyone to give a boudoir shoot a try!
IT IS TRULY A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE!
After my first session, I couldn’t wait to schedule another one.
A year later I did it again!
However, this time was completely different. 2020 was quite the year. Needless to say, I wasn’t feeling this session. I had been off of work for 2.5 months, now back to work & extremely busy.
I had to move my session a couple different times. I was doing a “mini session” so there was no hair and makeup included and just a quick 30 min shoot.
I had scheduled an appointment with a local girl to get my makeup done. So the day comes and my makeup appointment got canceled, my hair wasn’t cooperating & I was not feeling it.
I even thought about canceling my Session. Well I am very thankful I did not!!!
MOLLY WASN’T FEELING HER BEST EITHER SO WE LAUGHED AND SAID FUCK IT! SHE FOUND THIS SUPER PRETTY GREEN OUTFIT FOR ME TO WEAR. SHE THEN ASKED IF I’D BE WILL TO SHOOT OUTSIDE. THERE WAS A FOREST PRESERVE NEAR BY. I TOLD
MOLLY SHE WAS THE BOSS,
SO I’M DOWN FOR WHATEVER.
Just like my first session, that last minute decision of changing the sheets to now shooting outside was the best decision ever!!!
THAT GREEN
OUTFIT,
OUTSIDE,
STUNNING!!!
We both had so much fun! From starting out annoyed and just not interested to feeling gorgeous in a field, Molly can sure work her magic!
After the session was over, Molly told me I needed to go downtown and get an overpriced meal with a glass of wine to celebrate!
I EARNED IT.
I debated but again, those last minute decisions have really paid off. I felt like a celebrity! That boost of confidence was exactly what I needed.
Thank you to Molly! Just like I told her at the reveal, she has magic. Anyone can take a picture of a half naked person, but when you do,
