Behind the Scenes at Jenna Faye Photography

Belleville ON Boudoir Photography

I would love to share with you some more kind words from a client. This amazing lady booked one of our outdoor themed boudoir sessions. We talked A LOT before her session, planning and reassuring and planning some more. We definitely became email buddies! She had a lot of nerves and insecurities going into the session, so I was so happy to work through that with her and get such great feedback after her session!! I am so appreciative that women come to me and trust me with their photos, especially when the photos are of such an intimate nature. It is truly an honour.

"Hi Jenna,

I just had to send you a massive THANK YOU for making me feel like the fairytale princesses that I portrayed yesterday :) You and Cheryl made me feel comfortable and confident, in spite of the cold! Sharon made me look the part, and well, she's awesome. I really enjoyed her quirky personality!

 

Jenna, you're a class act. Thank you for all of the time and energy that you put into yesterday - I really hope that when you look back on it, it was worth the endless planning, location scouting, costume sourcing and combatting the 'nature' and cold.... seriously, it looks like you planned this like a wedding - no detail was overlooked. It was absolutely beautiful.

 

I'm so impressed with you - and how well you handled yourself while facing the nature, cold, and how we got a little behind d/t complicated wardobes. Cheryl was the sweetest in reminding you to stay on schedule, yet I never felt like you were rushed or that time even mattered. You two make a fantastic team and I got the vibe that you two have worked together for years, even if that isn't the case, I think you're a really good match.

 

I already look forward to being your customer again! I don't know how you did it, but I walked away feeling strong, confident, sexy and appreciative of the body that I have. You're awesome. I should do this more often, and I will :)"

 

Belleville, ON Boudoir Photography Testimonial

 

 

This lovely lady had a private boudoir session with me a few months ago. Together we created some gorgeous images of her. She was kind enough to allow me to share some of her images, as well as some words from her about her boudoir experience with Jenna Faye Photography.

"My experience with Jenna began when a friend and I were looking at another Web page and saw her name mentioned as the creator of some very beautiful photographs of some very beautiful women. My friend had heard nothing but wonderful things about Jenna  and said, you should do it and I agreed!

 

After about a month of back and forth, Jenna and I met to discuss what my ideas were, what I was comfortable with  and what we could create together.  I have to tell you, being nervous is an understatement, but Jenna's down to earth approach and comfortable way, put me at ease, talking about lingerie and nipples and nudity is a  little off the normal coffee conversation,  at least in my world :o)

 

She got right to work, created and sent a page of examples that she thought would work well and I have to say that I loved everything that she suggested, she has a fabulous eye.

 

I opted for a private session &  the location was just that, private and fantastic and comfortable.  Once we had the wardrobe figured out, she had  Jami  from True Scarlett do make-up,  she did a fabulous job!  The pampering was a real treat and definitely added to the 

experience.   The shoot was so much fun, her direction was to the point, no guess work and she was on the mark every time .  As we tried more poses it became easier and more comfortable,  I truly felt that she was a part of the camera, no judgement and nothing but encouragement and a few laughs and very empowering.

 

As woman we spend so much time being mothers and sisters, wives, friends, supporters and caregivers that we forget that before anything else we are woman, beautiful in all of our ways at every stage.  We sometimes think that as we get older,  we have to abandon any idea of being sexy & nothing is further from the truth.   MY experience with Jenna gave me a visual, gave me permission to be feminine, moving into the next stage of my life with a renewed appreciation of me.  

 

Thank you Jenna, therapy in session :o) "

 

Thank YOU, for such kind words :) And a few more images of this special lady!

Belleville, ON Maternity + Family Photographer

I met this family after they moved into my area and contacted me for Maternity and Newborn sessions. Meeting them at their first session, we had a great time and they seemed like fun, creative and outgoing people. Knowing they were new to the area, I went out on a limb and told them if they ever wanted to hang out, my hubby and I would love to get to know them.

That first meeting blossomed into a genuine friendship between our families. It has been a pleasure watching their little guy grow, both through my lens and just hanging out. Chloe and I have lots in common, and I feel lucky to have met her. I don't have many close friends in my area so it was so great to make a new one!

Now this lovely little family is expecting a new addition. Any day now (literally!!) a sweet baby girl will take them from a family of three to a family of four. I am oh so excited to meet her. We met up at a fun location a couple of months ago to take some maternity images for them. Chloe is also a small business owner, along with her hubby Kevin. Together they run Pom Tree, a company that sells all kinds of fabulous paper decorations, from poms to garlands to paper straws. Check their site out if you need some nursery decor or are throwing a party of any kind. The huge balloon and tassles in the photos are of course, one of their products!

 

Time to start fresh! I have revamped the blog design and archived all of my old posts. Excited to start using my blog again as another way to communicate with my fans and clients. Facebook is great for connecting with people, but a blog allows me to share more photos and the stories that go with them, as well as reach clients who don't use facebook.

I'd like to start my first blog post by sharing a special sale I am holding! With all of the Black Friday sales we are bombarded with, I am happy to offer my annual Gift Card sale to you.
