How would you rate your overall experience? 
5 stars! 

What was the experience like for you?
I thought it was great! I loved how welcoming you were from the minute I got there. It was really fun to just goof off and play. Being in front of the camera was so easy when I could see you were having such a good time and looking so pleased with what we were getting! I thought you did a really fabulous job of staying engaged and chatty throughout the session, which helped me a lot!

What made you choose me?
I know that you’re someone who sees people with a loving, kind eye, and I knew I could trust you to see me that way, too.

If you were going to recommend me to your best friend, what would you say?
I’d say it’s really fun working with you mostly because you do stellar work and you know the finished product will be wonderful, but it’s also really fun working with you because you give excellent feedback and you’re adorable when you get excited, which made me get more excited. Then we were just hyping each other up and that’s kind of exactly the experience you want when you’re in your mid-life and semi-nude with another person. 

What did you think or feel when you first saw your pictures?
I loved them!! I was like “Damn, I look like a badass!” This is exactly what I envisioned but even better because it actually worked out!!” I love them!

What do you feel your images will say to you in 20 years?
I think they’ll be a really fun record of the time in my life when I learned that it’s okay to feel myself and like what I see when I look in the mirror.

Was there anything specific that stood out to you about my imagery?
I’m not sure how best to describe it, but I always know when I am looking at your work. You have a certain clarity of vision that I really love.
