Why You Must Invest in Yourself to Succeed
I speak to hundreds of women. I hear the same things over and over about why they can’t do something. I never really thought about it much until I left my “safe” corporate job to pursue my passion.
It took me three long years to give myself permission to leave a job I hated. I let the “what ifs” hold me back. At some point, I realized that I deserved better, that I deserved more out of life.
I had to let go of the crippling fear. Fear truly is what holds us all back.
I read an interesting stat from a study done by Hewlett Packard that showed that women would only apply to a job if they met a 100% of the criteria, while men would apply to a job if they only met 60% of the criteria.1 Men are historically known to take more risks than women. 2
You, as a woman, have the power and authority to invest in yourself. And you damn well should. You do not “need to check with your partner first”, or “think about it for a few days.”
I get it. It’s scary when you aren’t sure of the outcome, but know that there will never be a right time. You do not need to ask for permission from someone else to grow. It’s okay to make yourself a priority.
Investing in yourself means real progress for women. Imagine if every woman in the world carried the confidence she should. Can you imagine the contributions that could be made? It is time to stop letting doubt and insecurity hold us back from getting we want out of life.

Poses That Will Inspire You to Get Naked
I’ve always assured clients that you don’t have to get naked if you don’t want to. There’s no pressure. After all, you’re the one paying me. But I think these poses will inspire you to want to do so.
My shower set is always one of my most popular sets. Some clients will rock a white shirt or colored panties, while others prefer total or partial nudity.
You can always be nude, or at least appear nude, under a white sheet.
Bodyscapes, or Nudescapes, as they’re sometimes called are perfect example of nudity done right. Light and shadow are used to highlight certain areas and hide others.
Who needs a bra when you have a sexy leather jacket?
Just because you’re topless doesn’t mean you have to show boob!
Tattoos are an excellent reason to go nude.
Clean and classy…
It doesn’t always have to be a white sheet. Red Satin is silky and full of sex appeal.
My Thoughts on Ordering Lingerie from Shein.com
Like many of you, clothing ads populate my facebook feed. Lacy, trendy, shiny, and oh-so-irresistible. I resisted buying from Shein in particular because I was sure that the clothes were similar in fit to something you order off Wish or Aliexpress.
But I’d had several people tell me that they order regularly from Shein and the sizing is true-to-size. I’m often asked for recommendations on where to buy lingerie, and Shein is very reasonably priced (read: cheap), so I figured I would order some and save you all the heartache of spending five dollars, only to have your haute couture hopes and dreams dashed to smithereens.
My Take: I ordered one size up, a 1X, to keep this in my client closet. I usually ask that clients bring their own wardrobe with them to sessions for a couple of reasons. One is that you come across more confidently on camera in something that you know looks good on you as opposed to something random, and the second is that I don’t have room for a large client closet, so I have to be really selective with the pieces that I do buy. This comes in two other colors besides black, but black is flattering on every skin tone, so I played it safe. This does have a considerable amount stretch to it but seems to fit more like a large.
Fit: More Like a Little White Lie than a Full-On Scam I love bodysuits and teddies because they flatter every shape and size, and while this one was no exception, the cups only give the illusion of underwire. However, the fit was very true-to-size. This is truly a budget piece, and would benefit from some built-in spandex and underwire cups for extra support.
Sexy Enough. I love scrappy, harness lingerie, but I have to admit that I was truly terrified to try it on; past experience with cheaply made lingerie has left lasting scars. Like the mesh bodysuit above, it lacks underwire so there’s no support. Ordered a size 1x, it appears to be true-to-size, as it was a bit big. It photographs ok, but wasn’t my favorite. I actually had to fix the “cups” in post-processing; the fit was a bit roomy on me at a size 1x, and the cups moved with me as I posed.
Versatile and Pretty. This was the piece I was most excited about as sheer robes can often be worn as swimsuit coverups or dusters. Again, I ordered up one size, and would say this piece runs a tad small as it fits more like a large.
Sheer mesh pieces are also some of my favorite lingerie. It photographs well since it’s so sheer that the light goes through it but still offers enough coverage to help hide perceived flaws like belly rolls and cellulite.
Final Verdict: Well, you do get what you pay for. Sometimes, it’s fun to buy inexpensive pieces to try on a new trend or style. These are not well-made pieces with the most flattering fit. They are cheaply constructed, and will get the job done if you are on a budget. The sizing is a bit inconsistent, but they do offer free returns.
