Mary has loved my work since seeing images from Kelly Belle’s first session with me in January 2014. I took a few minutes to chat with Mary to see what she thought about the before/during/after of her session.
How long have you been waiting to do a contemporary glamour session and what made you decide now was the time to do one?
For awhile, it was time when I worked up the courage to write you and ask if you would work with me.
What made you decide I was the photographer to work with to do your contemporary glamour session?
I always loved your photos when my friend Kelly showed me her boudoir photos, but never knew you did contemporary glamour. When I found out you did, I knew I wanted photos by you. They are just so beautiful.
What was your favorite part out of the entire experience? The planning, the session, the reveal?
I would have to say the session, getting my makeup done professionally then dressing up in the blue sequined GLAMOUR VIP dress just made me feel so amazing.
What did you think when you saw that first image of yourself?
I thought, ‘Holy canola that’s me!’ I looked amazing and had the biggest smile on my face the rest of the day.

How did shooting this session with me change your outlook on yourself? Are you more confident?
Yes, I would say I’m more confident with myself and changed my outlook on posing. Posing is a big key on how to make the picture look nice and feminine.
Were you surprised at how much fun you had planning your session, shooting your session, and seeing your images?
I had tons of fun planning everything. Getting to pick makeup and hair on Pinterest to pick for the shoot was a blast. Shooting the session was fun— we had a lot of laughter, which gave it a relaxing vibe when posing.
