BOUDOIR AND CONTEMPORARY GLAMOUR PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER SHANNON HEMAUER ANNOUNCES THE RECIPIENTS FOR THE 2017 I BELIEVE PROJECT: TESSA AND MARY.
The I BELIEVE Project, which first started in 2014, is Air Force veteran Shannon Hemauer’s way of giving back to her community by offering women a complimentary boudoir or contemporary glamour portrait session with the goal to help each recipient see herself as feminine, inspiring, and powerful—sometimes for the very first time in her life.
The Project got the name of “I BELIEVE” because Mrs. Hemauer believes women should experience what a confidence builder and transformation a portrait session is for women. “It’s more than ‘just’ a photo shoot—it’s this amazing transformation I get to be a part of for each client.” Mrs. Hemauer stated.
Mrs. Hemauer hand-selects the recipients based upon their inspirational story, determination, and resilience in spirit. Previous recipients have been breast cancer survivors; a male-to-female transgender; and, a domestic abuse survivor.
For 2017, Mrs. Hemauer selected Tessa, a 29-year-old woman currently receiving treatment for ovarian cancer; and, Mary, a 26-year-old woman working to understand her depression/anxiety. Tessa’s session was held in early February 2017; Mary’s session is scheduled for October 2017.
Included with each I BELIEVE Project session:
- Portrait Session: A boudoir or contemporary glamour portrait session, including dress rental, and an 8×10 album with up to 20 edited images from the portrait session.
- Hair & Makeup: One look, including false lashes, by professional Hair/Makeup Artist (HMUA) Nath Mao.
Shannon Hemauer Photography has been shooting exclusively boudoir and contemporary glamour portrait photography for “everyday women” of all shapes, sizes, ages, and beliefs living in Carlisle, Dillsburg, Gettysburg, Harrisburg, Hershey, York, and the Central Pennsylvania area since 2014. She will be opening a studio in Carlisle on Pomfret Street early 2017.
