Maven Jade Photography

even if it’s not for anyone other than themselves!!!

your shoot you don’t even realize your half naked, lol!! My husband loved the book I had made for him as a wedding present. If you’re having any doubts, don’t! Call Shari and set that appointment, you will not regret it!!!

with my FH on our wedding day.

say enough AMAZING things!!!

uldn’t believe that was me lol. I think everyone should do this atleast once as a gift for someone or for themselves as I did, got some shots hanging in my master bathroom. So worth the money!!

I did. Shari makes you feel so comfortable from the minute you get to your appointment, and she is still so wonderful till this day. She is professional, talented and a pleasure to work with. The pictures exceeded my wildest expectations - and my hubby's too! I cant express my gratitude enough- not only did Shari give me pictures that I will always love looking at, but a confidence that I didn't know I possessed. She is a total rock star and is highly recommended!

she does. All of that made the experience that much better. I could not express enough to my friends how they all needed to do this shoot.. not just for their new soon to be spouse but for themselves. The sense of confidence you gain after leaving the photoshoot is unreal- you feel unstoppable walking out of there! I cannot thank Shari enough for these amazing photos. I came across mine again today and felt so good about myself. Thanks again Shari!

in front of myself let alone a stranger. Within MINUTES Shari had me laughing, smiling and comfortable(minus walking in heels, because no one can work miracles like that). She never once had me feeling awkward, shy, or uneasy. We actually had the best time. Hell I was doing handstand and eating donuts.Literally. What more could I ask for? Im not sure who loved the photos more- my husband or myself. I literally look at them ALL THE TIME. I love the confidence she was able to bring out in my with her fun, calming nature. So happy she was brought to my attention-10/10 would do another shoot with Shari.

it again and again

ding this is my one chance and i should do it for him.... However, Shari made it so comfortable to the point where i was walking around talking to her, while in my underwear and didnt even notice. She is so professional, but still seems like your hanging out with a friend. I'm so awkward in pictures but she made it fun and east. I cannot wait to see how the photos came out and make my album.

photos I was FLOORED! I couldn’t believe how good they looked. They were tasteful and she totally got the vibe I was going for with each look. I’m getting married this weekend and gave the book to my fiancé last night. The look on his face was priceless. This was such an incredible experience and one I never thought I’d have. I’m so thankful to Shari for making it so worthwhile. Highly HIGHLY recommend,

ghly recommended and I am so glad I did this

I felt so relaxed and myself around her. I highly recommend her for any photography needs- I'll certainly be using her again in the future!!!

LY considering cancelling. Boy am I glad I kept the appointment! It was one of the most liberating, fun and amazing things I’ve ever done for MYSELF (let alone for my future husband) I shot in Shari’s new studio (located in Plainview) it is different from her other locations (Chelsea mansion and the house in Oyster Bay) but I am BEYOND pleased with my photographs. They are clean and crisp and I’m still shocked that it’s me in the pictures!!! (Fun bonus: build yourself a killer “I’m sexy” playlist and you can Bluetooth right into her sound system to get that extra boost of confidence!) we shot for 3 hours and my portfolio contains 9 “looks”!!! Shari was great to communicate with throughout the booking and the week of the shoot. meeting her was like BAM instant friendship (I mean she is seeing you practically naked). I thought I would be freaked out but after a few snaps of the camera it was fine (this is her JOB). She is chill - fun - and she’s a genius to get me to look THAT good in a photograph!!! Shari is an excellent choice for boudoir photography!

d the BEST TIME EVER. It was the most fun 3 hours of my life!!! Being VERY self conscience and having body image issues, all of that did not even cross my mind for one second throughout our entire shoot. I felt so beautiful and so confident and sexy and could not believe I was doing half of the things I was doing. Her artistic style and amazing personality makes you feel like a Victoria Secret model. There was a moment where she showed me a quick glimpse at one of my pictures on her camera, and I could not even believe that it was me. Then, as I was posing in the window, I could see myself in the reflection and it really made me a little emotional. It was an incredibly raw and bold thing for me to do and it was so liberating. I have a new found respect for myself and my body and the feeling is indescribable. I can't thank Shari enough for how much fun this was. I highly recommend adding boudoir photos to your wedding journey! Shari is warm, funny and a total cool girl! I cannot wait for my fiance to see these photos!!! Thank you Shari!

ographed but thanks to Shari after a few minutes he felt so comfortable and was even making up new poses by the end of the shoot. Im not the most creative bride to be- so I was so thankful that Shari was full of ideas! She had a vision and was able to bring it to life so beautifully. The photos came out more beautiful then I ever could have imagined! Shari even took the time to smooth out some little bug bites I had on my legs in all of the pictures. I am so relieved that this part of my wedding planning was so stress free and fun. I would recommend Shari at mavenjade over and over again! Truly a great experience

otographs that I couldn't believe some were even really me. I can't wait to see my fiancé's reaction on our wedding day when I surprise him with this special book.

re pleased with her work

ts with her in the future!

woman and she knew exactly what look she was going for. I felt very comfortable the whole time! The photos are stunning and I can't wait for my fiancé to see them!!

k I'm awkward. But I figured I'd try this out and Shari helped me every step of the way! I ordered a bunch of different "outfits" and she helped pick out what to wear and in what order. She made me feel super comfortable and before I knew it, I was walking around with her half naked just chit-chatting like we were old friends! She helped give me directions, gave me tips and strategies for posing & had me smiling & laughing the whole time. I felt super great when we were done with the photo session but I still didn't think I'd end up liking many photos of myself. But I was pleasantly surprised and happy with so many 0f the photos that I ended up having such a hard time narrowing down which photos to buy so I bought the whole set so I could put together a better album for my future husband & then figured he can look through the rest of them on his computer whenever he wanted :P HIGHLY RECOMMEND SHARI!! Do it, you won't regret it <3

han self conscious and I can't say enough nice things about her. She is so professional and has serious talent. Will be using her for all of my future events!!

with how beautiful the pictures were. I am looking forward to using Shari for future shoots.

having the best time laughing and really enjoying myself. I honestly felt like I was hanging out with one of my best friends. Being comfortable really helped make me relax, and being relaxed makes for better photos. The entire process was fun, uplifting and gave me the biggest confidence boost – something every bride could use! The book she made for me to give as my wedding gift to my husband is unbelievable. He could not get over how amazing and great I looked (I couldn’t believe it myself). I have recommended Shari to every single bride I know, she is an expert in her field, she is passionate about her work, she is a professional, and above all else she wants to deliver a product that is beautiful and makes others proud of themselves. She is a true artist!
