I was just like you.

I struggled with self-esteem and worth. I didn’t believe I was pretty and I certainly didn’t feel like I was. I wouldn’t even believe my own husband when he paid me physical compliments.

“Yeah, right,” I thought.

I would stand in front of the mirror and count all the things I needed to “fix.” I’d say them aloud to other people, who told me I was wrong or that I was being ridiculous.

And I promised myself that someday I’ll see what others see, after I “fix” all the things that were wrong with me.

It turns out I didn’t need fixing… or rather, my body didn’t, just my perception of myself.

My own boudoir session proved it to me.
And yours is going to do the same for you.

At the end of the hair and makeup portion of your day, we’ll ask you how you like your makeup and if there are any changes you want made.

Why Choose Jennifer James in Jacksonville, Florida?

You have a lot of choices for boudoir photography on the First Coast and we totally recognize that!  When you hire me, you are not only supporting a small business, but you know who is photographing you in your most intimate and vulnerable moments.  We don’t sub out photographers.  My studio is not a chain and you won’t find it on Groupon. Instead of meeting your unknown photographer in a hotel room or Airbnb rented by the day, you will come to my luxurious, custom-built photography studio in Saint Augustine, complete with a private changing room, kitchenette, beautifully decorated sets, and an enormous closet full of garments ranging from XS – 5XL. 

You will also be hiring an expert in posing, styling, and telling bad Dad-jokes!  I call that a win!

“I’m pretty self-conscious about my body…like every other woman.
[But] I was like, Oh my god, that’s me?!
It was very empowering.”

It all starts with a quick phone call

We’ll chat on the phone about what you are looking for, talk about your “why”, and then if you like what you hear, we will book your date!

“YOU COULD RATTLE THE STARS,” SHE WHISPERED. “YOU COULD DO ANYTHING, IF YOU ONLY DARED. AND DEEP DOWN, YOU KNOW IT, TOO.
That’s what scares you most.”

You are worthy of this experience.

It’s time to invest
in yourself

I am a firm believer that we cannot pour from empty cups and that what we put out into the world, we receive back tenfold. And that’s why I believe in self care, whether it’s in the form of getting your hair done or taking a real vacation just for you. In this case, I’m a boudoir photographer, so I provide self care in the form of boudoir and beauty art for my clients.  When I am happy and fulfilled, this radiates to the people around me, my friends, family, and loved ones.  As it will for you.

Booking a boudoir session is a commitment to yourself, a push to remember that you are worthy of feeling beautiful in this moment, despite nothing. It’s a commitment to your future self that you promise to create tangible memories of this moment in time upon which you will reflect in 20 or 30 years.

You, my friend, are worthy of feeling absolutely gorgeous. I’m ready to take part in your journey. All you have to do is show up, and I’ll take care of the rest.

Are you ready to step outside your comfort zone and come away with the most incredible images of yourself you’ve ever seen?
