Hampton Roads Boudoir | The Photographer

hi, my name is

JENNA

I'm the gal who wears leopard print with practically everything, binge watches Sherlock, New Girl, & Queer Eye, runs on Starbuck's Iced Chai, & essentially lives in the home decor section of Target. A proud Mama to 3 adorable pups & one amazing little boy with ASD. A gal who dreams to one day have an apartment in Paris with her dashing husband & spend her days eating croissants & macarons, and taking pictures of all the pretty things.

I'm also the gal who thinks you are absolutely stunning exactly as you are NOW and wants to help you to believe in your beauty. I'm the gal who will laugh and goof with you, zhuzh your hair, and pick your wedgy, all while capturing you as the Queen that you truly are.

LOVE STORY

Truthfully, boudoir (and photography in general), is a semi-recent aspiration for me. It wasn’t something I grew up knowing I wanted to do.

I did, however, grow up loving all things girly.

Seriously.

Pastel colors. Dresses. Barbies (Shout out to my girl Theresa). Polly Pockets. Britney Spears (admittedly, still a guilty pleasure of mine.)

I’ve also always had a pure passion for creating. From a young age, design of all genres captured me, but particularly interior design. I religiously watched TLC and shows like "While You Were Out" & "Trading Spaces" (holding out for the relaunch!)

So…photography was not a creative outlet on my radar, not even a little bit. That is, until I had an awesome experience with a photographer who piqued my curiosity. Not long after, my husband convinced me to give it a try. Instantaneously, I felt at home. I found "my thing".

About a year later, whilst I was bouncing around the different genres photography has to offer, I booked my own boudoir session. The whole experience blew me away. To coming up with looks, to the make-over team, to the guidance during the session, to the very best part of seeing my images for the first time. I knew from that moment on that I needed to show other women this amazing experience. I scheduled my first session with a client-turned-bestie, & I've been hooked ever since.

After that first session, my passion for the genre of boudoir began to totally consume me. I decided to specialize in creating gorgeous images for women and delivering a truly life-changing experience. I am obsessed with every facet of it. The interior design of the studio space, the fashion sense of styling looks, the challenge and excitement of creating art inspired by each of my beautiful muses...but the most of all, I am obsessed with the absolutely profound effect that a boudoir session can have on a woman.
