“You don’t have to be lonely, with FarmersOnly.com!” I would like to start by apologizing for getting the “FarmersOnly.com” song stuck in your head, and if you’re not familiar with the song I’m referencing, take a look HERE. Chrissy met her husband on FarmersOnly.com. She’ll be the first to admit their commercials are a bit cheesy—but effective! She was sitting on her couch one evening, saw the commercial and though she’d give it a chance…only to be disappointed at her options, so she logged out of the site and went about her way. BUT! A few months later she saw another FarmersOnly.com commercial and thought she’d give it another try. And this time, when she logged in, the very first man listed would end up being her husband! Chrissy and her man were married in September 2017 and for their one-year wedding anniversary Chrissy wanted to surprise her man with portraits of her that he’d love. Below you’ll find her client interview with me sprinkled in with a few of her images—please take a moment to read over her answers, and if you find you can relate, contact me to schedule your phone consult. How long have you been wanting to do a boudoir/contemporary glamour session and what made you decide now was the time to do one? I started looking into boudoir in late October 2017. I had gotten married in September and had already started to think about what I could give my husband for our one year anniversary. I had been looking on Pinterest to get some ideas and came across some boudoir photos. I had no idea what “boudoir” was at the time. I googled boudoir photographers in my area and came across Shannon Hemauer Photography. I immediately pulled up her website and started looking through

“Madame Professor” had me and my team in tears from laughing so much during her session. During the planning portion of her session, Madame Professor randomly emailed me and asked if she could be photographed with donuts because her boyfriend loves donuts. I wish you could have seen my face as I read THAT email. Like, how in the world do I make donuts look sexy in a boudoir session?! But I think I succeeded and we had a blast making her vision come to light. Madame Professor is, as the name suggests, a professor, and because of her job we agreed it was best to keep her identity private, but that also means images with her face aren’t shareable, including most of the donut images. That’s OK! I think you’ll still enjoy the two images I am sharing, as well as I think you’ll enjoy her client interview. Please take a moment to read over her answers and if you find you can relate to her, contact me to schedule your complimentary phone consult to discuss how you want to be photographed. How long have you been wanting to do a boudoir/contemporary glamour session and what made you decide now was the time to do one? I, like many women, struggle with not feeling “good enough,” not “pretty enough”… just not “enough” in general. Yet externally, I get validation from others. They tell me I AM pretty enough and good enough. I rarely believed them. I wanted to see what everyone else supposedly sees, and I knew I couldn’t see myself on my own, as strange as that sounds. I needed help. I needed to see myself in the way others see me instead of the lens with which I commonly see myself: my wounded childhood lens. When I
