Tiffany is a wonderful example of many of you ladies out there—convinced you need to lose weight before your boudoir session. Tiffany is also a great example of saying you want to lose weight before your session (even booking a session as incentive to work out) but, to be honest, that doesn’t usually happen. AND Tiffany is a fantastic example of why losing weight is not needed to look a-maze-ing in your portraits—between hair/makeup, clothing, and especially posing (I direct you the entire session), those curves become a show stopper. Have you heard the saying confidence is the sexiest thing a woman can wear? Well it’s true! Confidence comes through, even when wearing nothing but heels and a white sheet. Stop telling yourself you want to lose 5, 10, 30 pounds before you book a boudoir session with me. Trust me, you will be stunning in your portraits—you don’t need to lose weight to achieve this. Contact me today to schedule a consult so I can address any concerns you may have—I promise you are in good hands. As Alisha the Assistant said in her client interview last year, ‘Honestly when you see your images, the LAST thing you are thinking about is what size you are. [When looking at Tiffany’s pictures] was your first thought ANYTHING other than ‘Wow!’?’ Still hesitant? That’s totally OK! I invite you to learn a bit about me, browse through my boudoir/contemporary glamour/before & after galleries, feel confident you are in good hands, and then contact me. Did you see the booking incentive I’m offering right now? Schedule a session for August, September, October, or November 2017, and you’ll receive a complimentary 16×20 acrylic portrait! This is a BRAND NEW PRODUCT and you cannot purchase it—you must book a session with me for those mentioned months! (And you want to move quick—I

I BELIEVE Project: Tessa | Shannon Hemauer Photography
“Nothing can dim the light that shines from within.” —Maya Angelou I meet Tessa at the Dillsburg Home Brew Fest held November 2016—my husband, Brooks, owns Hemauer Brewing Company and I went along to help pour his beer at the event. I offered a $500.00 gift card as a raffle prize at the Brew Fest—all monies raised were going to the Cpl. Dane Freedman Service Dog Foundation, an organization that raises money to help veterans receive a service dog—Tessa saw the raffle prize and decided to enter, never expecting to win. The picture below is me and Tessa, after she learned she won the raffle. A few nights after Tessa won, I called her to start the process of planning her session, but I soon found out that the cancer she’s been battling for the past seven years had come back in full force—she had just learned this news herself. I listened to her as she spoke through her tears of this devastating news BUT yet she was beyond thrilled to have won the raffle because this was something she had always wanted to do. It was on her bucket list. I knew on the spot I had to make Tessa one of my I BELIEVE Project winners for 2017. So, I present to you her story, in her in own words. You may find there are a few details here and there that should be added (I know I was left with questions), but Tessa has a lot going on right now, didn’t really have the energy to fine-tune, and I didn’t want to push. Two weeks before Thanksgiving in 2010, at the age of 22, my pap smear came back abnormal. My doctors sent me to a specialist in St Louis, who confirmed I had Stage II uterine cancer, and in early December of that
Lori | Shannon Hemauer Photography
Lori’s husband, Jim, contacted me late last year because he wanted to surprise his wife of almost 10 years with a boudoir session in February of this year. During our consult, he mentioned they live about two hours away so I suggested we do a rare Saturday session so they could have a long weekend away and then have a night on the town after her session with her hair and makeup done. Now, it turns out Jim has a big appreciation of lingerie, and all Lori had to do was look in her own closet to do some “shopping.” What she brought for her session was perfect for her. Such a sweet couple! A big thank you to Ashley Becker for helping Lori look a-maze-ing, and to Alisha the Assistant for taking the fun behind-the-scene images! Are you thinking shooting a session with me is something you want to do? Well, I invite you to learn a bit about me, browse through my boudoir/contemporary glamour/before & after galleries, and then contact me today to schedule your complimentary consult to discuss how you want to be photographed.
