In Her Words

“I flipped through Jennifer's portfolio (honestly - to talk myself out of it) and I saw all these women, different sizes, different ages and they were absolutely stunning. I knew I would be comfortable with her after that. If you get nothing else from this review, take away the fact that YOU pick how exposed you are and Jennifer is so talented that she can capture all those moments and wow your socks off. My youth is disappearing- but feeling like a bad bitch is here to stay.”

“Scheduling this shoot with Jennifer was definitely out of my comfort zone & made me a little nervous that I wouldn’t be “perfect” in every photo. I’m here to tell you I am SO IN LOVE with how she captured me & also made me feel so comfortable during the entire session. I’m a mother of two little ones and having been through that I definitely didn’t “love” my body anymore...but after doing this boudoir shoot for ME I can confidently say I love every part of me and now I get to keep these photos forever.”

“My boudoir shoot with Jennifer was amazing from start to finish!! From the minute I walked in I was greeted with chocolates and a personalized message, her studio space was very cozy and inviting. She made me feel comfortable in a setting that some may have been nervous about, and she made me feel beautiful and confident the entire time! She had a variety of ideas and flattering poses. I just received my images yesterday and I was seriously blown away by how beautiful they are!”

“Having a boudoir shoot with Jennifer Glass, owner and operator, was empowering. The second I walked in the door, she immediately made me feel at ease. The level of cleanliness and set-up, was like I was walking into a new 5-star hotel. She provided me feedback on the options of clothing and style I was seeking. She listened to me and gives great advice. The photo shoot felt like an amazing day dream and I could not be more elated with the results. She’s professional, smart, caring and does great work.”

“I recently had a boudoir shoot with Jennifer and I was blown away! From the moment I walked in for the shoot to the reveal where I got to invite some friends and watch a slideshow of my photos! Everything was professional, exciting and comfortable. She is incredibly talented and knew exactly how to direct me! I would recommend Jennifer for any of your boudoir photography!”

“What an amazing experience!! As with most women, this was way out of my comfort zone. Jennifer was so helpful in deciding on outfits and makeup, giving her opinion on what would photograph best. Her knowledge of lighting and posing resulted in fabulous photos. This was my anniversary gift for my husband and the photos turned out just beautiful. The best part was my husband’s reaction at the reveal!!”

FAQ

I'm a plus-sized gal and I'm not sure if boudoir is for me?

Boudoir photography is for EVERYONE and if you have gorgeous curves and a fuller figure, that shouldn't prevent you from this empowering and uplifting experience. In fact, it DEMANDS that you walk towards it and face your fears. PSA... I am a curvy woman as well and I connect with your fears. However, my favorite part of your boudoir experience is tearing those fears up and lighting them on fire when you see your final images. I don't want you to be happy. I want you to be blown away!

How do I prepare for the session as far as my skin, hair, nails, and skin (brazilian wax?...EEP!)?

I always tell clients that good skin starts with good hydration. So in the weeks prior to your session, you want to be hitting the (water) bottle hard. The morning of your session you'll want to arrive with your hair clean and dry and free of makeup. A little moisturizer is fine, but coming in with last night's mascara that's become today's smokey eye isn't ideal. :) Plus, you'll want to get your beauty sleep, since you'll be needing ALL your energy for posing in the shoot. It's a little harder (and more fun!) than it looks, so you'll need your z's. If you needed a touch up with your roots or highlights you'll want to plan accordingly, and a trip to the nail salon for a mani/pedi with a neutral color is ideal. As for the big question about waxing. That's completely up to you. I have clients who shave or go full Brazilian with their naughty bits. It's your choice. Just make sure that with waxing, you give some time for skin to recover, especially facial waxing, so that you don't have any redness on shoot day. That all being said, typically some of those areas are in soft focus and I'm an EXPERT at Photoshop and I can take care of all the typical bumps.

Do you have a studio or will you come to my home?

I shoot 99% of my sessions out of my private studio in Rockledge, Florida. I know and LOVE the light, and the images you see in my portfolio (typically) are a reflection of that space. It's a cozy, comfortable, and safe. It's a spot for clients (who are feeling pretty vulnerable) to relax and let go. I want you to rock out your session, and my amazing studio allows you to do just that. I will, on occasion shoot at a client's home or in a hotel setting. In that case, you and I would consult in advance about your space (how to get it ready and free of clutter). There are also additional fees that apply to shooting on location or in a hotel. Just keep in mind that using our studio keeps your stress at a minimum and we have boundless champagne and snacks!

The women in your photos always look so relaxed and natural. I'd be so nervous, how do you get them to look like that?

Well the champagne we have for you doesn't hurt! That being said, your comfort level with me starts well before you show up to the studio and have your champagne flute in hand. Before every session, you fill out a quick survey that helps me understand what you're trying to achieve with a boudoir session and then we'll schedule your consultation. I always tell clients that this first "meeting" is probably the most important piece of communication that gets you boudoir images from just O.K to... WOW!! is that me?! Boudoir photography is built on trust. The more comfortable you are with me, the more you'll be able to "let go" when we are in the session and just have an amazing time. And you will! 1000% guaranteed. I always try to get your body posed correctly, literally down to your fingertips, and then I coach for expressions. I use different breathing techniques, emotional cues, and general silliness to help you focus on the "mood" of the shoot without it ever being creepy or awkward. I feel like I have been entrusted with something very important to you — your self-worth. I never take it for granted and I'm committed to empowering you.

Who else is in the room for my session? Do you have an all female staff?

I get this question a lot actually. I know that when you take off your clothes (ANYWHERE!) you'd want to know who might be in attendance. ;) It will only be you and me during the shoot, and of course prior to the shoot you will be with my makeup artist, the uber-fab Carla Cano Krause. Since I want to deliver on the best images for you, I know that having someone (even a friend) hovering over my shoulder, is almost always a distraction for you. It makes it hard for you to relax, be your sexy self, and ultimately let go and have the most fun. I only hire female assistants and makeup artists. Even though I have male boudoir photographer friends (who are amazing at what they do btw), I keep my studio all feminine... all the time.

I'm feeling nervous... can I bring a friend with me or my husband/boyfriend?

I try to put myself in your shoes... the last thing I would want to do is show up at an unknown location, take my clothes off, and have photos taken ALL BY MYSELF! Because of that, I get the above question quite a bit. Here's how I typically respond. You and I will get to know each other well in advance of the shoot. EVERY client has a phone or video consultation with me in the weeks prior to your shoot. This helps you get to know and SEE me, and we go back and forth about your answers in your client questionnaire. This conversation almost always results in... "Jennifer... I'm so glad to have met you and I'm super excited about the shoot. You feel like one of my girlfriends." Most gals, at that point, feel comfortable coming solo to the studio. If clients still want to bring a friend, she'll hang out outside the shooting area, but she's also more than welcome to join in on the fun and have her own shoot the same day. Plus, you'll both receive a $100 credit toward your order. As far as partners/husbands/boyfriends, etc... they must stay in the waiting area and aren't permitted in the shooting space. That's a firm policy.

Do you have the right to post my photos?

As a boudoir photographer, I take my client's privacy very very seriously. When you come to me our entire professional relationship is based on trust. When you sign a contract with the studio to book a session, you're not signing a document that says I can share your images. You can choose to share your images, share them anonymously, or not share them at all. No pressure is ever placed on you to do that. That being said, all the clients you see on my site are gals just like you (non-models) who came in scared and unsure of their ability to experience a boudoir shoot. When you honor us with sharing your images, we show ALL women that they too can do this. I've also been asked on occasion to sign a non-disclosure agreement, and once I review the terms of the agreement, I'd be happy to sign one.
