“The Conversation about women’s bodies exists largely outside of us, while it is also directed at (and marketed to) us, and used to define and control us. The Conversation about women happens everywhere, publicly and privately. We are described and detailed, our faces and bodies analyzed and picked apart, our worth ascertained and ascribed based…

Great read. I loved Ashley’s points, too, but also did not 100% identify with her entire rebuttal. But, I do love the notion that women STOP comparing and competing with other women. Huge waste of energy there.
I am SMART enough and STRONG enough to do ANYTHING I ever want to do and that is all that matters to me.
J–your words are perfectly articulated. To see your heart behind your passion makes me smile and shout a resounding “YES!”.
Thanks Jill…
I think what rang true for me in Ashley’s words, is that until you are around supportive people… you will hate yourself and others.
Having grown up in a hyper critical family… I was also that way.
Having had a hyper critical significant other for many years… I always felt diminished or unworthy- unless I did the occasional and very unhealthy drop of lots of weight and looked ‘great’… it never held.
NOW I have someone in my life- who always tells me I look great. Who is positive and laughs and compliments many people around him. He is such a good example, it has helped to make me both a better person and a happier person…
I cannot imagine the scrutiny of a public figure.
I also loved reading some about your history ‘doll’…. things you did after high school that I did not know. I understand the healing aspect and would like to add to it… ‘mammalian love’… care and joy in seeing another like being happy. A well stated compliment- seeing beauty and recognizing it verbally. Being happy and smiling, and having that make someone else smile…
NICE JOB in discovery and in thought. You are (and always have been) wonderful ‘little sister’…

Beautiful work, Jillian. So nice to see that what you offer is more than just pictures; this sounds like a very transformative experience for you and your clients! :)
Perfect Boudoir Photography Makeup Doesn’t Only Have to Happen at Your Portrait Session. Many women who ask me about makeup are usually under the impression that makeup application starts with foundation or concealer. For perfect, portrait-ready makeup every day, primer is imperative. Primer? Like paint primer? Well, sort of…. As a teen, I worked for…

Fabulous tips…so that’s how you made me look so beautiful! I’m picking some up. Thank you.
A few years ago I tried a primer by Smashbox that I really didn’t like. I do like, and occasionally use, DHC’s Velvet Skin Coat, but I was looking to try another. Thanks to you now I have a couple to go try!
hey! Didn’t know they existed!!! But now that I know, I’m off to the store to get ‘em! Thanks Babe!
