Glamour Photoshoot for 34th Birthday | Jacksonville NC Photography Studio

34 and Thriving | A Glamour Birthday Session That Slayed

When this stunning mama reached out to book a glamour session for her 34th birthday, I was so excited—and honestly, incredibly honored. We first worked together during a model call a while back, and after that shoot, she told me she just knew I was the one to capture her birthday celebration. That kind of trust is never taken lightly, and I couldn’t wait to make her vision come to life.

As soon as we started planning, I got to work pulling inspiration. I created a mood board filled with bold, sultry, and confident vibes—something that felt elevated and beautiful, but still totally her. Glamour with intention. I could already see the final images in my head and couldn’t wait to bring it all together.

Of course, a session like this wouldn’t be complete without the magic touch of makeup artist Christina from Makeup by Christina. She is a complete boss and truly slays every look she touches. For this shoot, Christina brought a bold, smoky glam that gave our birthday queen major main character energy. Her artistry set the tone for the entire session—powerful, confident, and undeniably stunning.

From the very first outfit change, the vibe was electric. We laughed, we hyped, we danced—it was one of those sessions that felt just as good as it looked. And as we moved through each pose and look, I watched her confidence grow with every click of the shutter.

These are the kinds of sessions that remind me why I do what I do. It’s not about glamour for the sake of vanity. It’s about giving women space to feel seen, celebrated, and powerful. And this mama? She owned every second of it.

So here’s to turning 34, embracing the moment, and choosing to celebrate yourself in a way that feels unapologetically beautiful.
