"If you ever thought that a boudoir session was not for you....wrong! In July of 2020 I lost the love of my life, who was my high school sweetheart to a massive heart attack. Rick and I met in 1981 and dated all through high school, we went our separate ways in 1988. Fast forward to June 2013, I stopped at a McDonalds to get an ice tea, the drive through was busy so I went inside and when I turned to fill my drink, Rick was sitting there eating his lunch. I knew at that moment that I was still in love with him and had never gotten over him. We both had kids and we had some ducks we needed to get in a row before getting married. After 7 years together, we had decided that we would get married between Christmas and New Years in 2020. Rick was amazing, he always told me how pretty I was, how much he loved me and he always did the little things, like making sure I had gas in my car, cleaning my car off in the snow and starting my car when it was cold. We used to say that we were thankful fate brought us back together. I was devastated, afterall I was finally with the love of my life and fate only gave me 7 years with him. I was 52 at the time, I had stretch marks. bags under my eyes from being sad and alone, who was going to want me? My cousin lives in Florida and invited me down for Christmas so I didn't have to spend it alone. During the 10 days I was there, I met Tony. Unfortunately we share the same thing - losing our significant others. He brought me some much needed peace, told me I was beautiful and made me laugh again. We were two broken hearts who found love and were helping one another heal. I had read a book about losing the love of your life and how to go on. The one thing that was repeated over and over was to not try and duplicate the past relationship. I have been trying to come up with something to do for Tony that was unique to us. I went to Kim's to have some professional business photos taken and that's when I saw that she did boudoir sessions. She gave me some information about them and I knew right then and there that was what I was going to do for him. I was a little nervous, afterall I am 54 now, I have had kids, I have stretch marks and I'm not as skinny as I would like to be so how could I possibly look good in lingerie. From the moment I walked in I felt like a queen. Traci did a fabulous job on my hair and makeup, I looked like me, not someone that I wasn't. Kim made me feel very comfortable, sexy and beautiful throughout the entire shoot. I was a little nervous waiting for the big reveal, because what if I looked awful, what if I didn't like any of the pictures. When she revealed the first picture, it took my breath away as did every picture after. When she takes the pictures she captures the beautiful in you. I am so glad that I did this" - Ms. J
