April was nervous. As I did her makeup, she talked about how she doesn’t take good photos, and she hopes she doesn’t look horrible. I think these photos prove that she killed it! Like my other boudoir clients, her nervousness floated away very quickly, and she was a natural. Together we made something really special… Reminiscent of romps in the orchards that all Central Valley natives recall, this story is of a wife, mother, and friend remembering orchards fondly. Her husband Robert is a farmer by trade, and the profession goes back generations. It was a perfect choice to do the photos on the farm.
Thank you April, for allowing me to show you how beautiful you are.
“Dawn Kelly is one of the most amazing photographers. I met her when I was getting married in 2007, and I instantly hired her based on a pervious wedding I had been to where she was the photographer. My wedding photos turned out amazing, as I knew they would. Then years later I have seen so many photos that Dawn has taken and how her business has changed.
When my husband asked me to take boudoir photos, I told him he was crazy. At the time I was 256lbs and had just had my second baby. I knew that my body wasn’t beautiful and that it needed work. After hours in the gym I lost over 130lbs and still had a negative body image but decided that I was going to do those photos for my husband.
I contacted the only photographer I knew I could trust – Dawn Kelly. Dawn made me feel beautiful even with all my imperfections. She helped me to relax and see that I am a beautiful person and I should let that show. Dawn, I can not thank u enough for the experience I had with you. I don’t think you could possibly know how much doing these photos have changed my views of myself. I am a beautiful mother of two and shouldn’t hide that! Thank you for giving me the confidence to show off what I have worked so hard on!”
