Yvonne's Story

Yvonne, 48, had her shoot to make a Calendar for her boyfriend.
"I decided to get my boyfriend some pictures done as a special surprise for his birthday and also to help me as I was beginning to feel pretty unhappy with my body as I approached another birthday! I chose Mighty Aphrodite because the pictures shown on the site were so great that I thought if they could make me look half as good then I would be over the moon! I finally plucked up the courage to call and after 20 minutes chatting to Leigh I knew that I had chosen the right people.

Driving down to Reading on the day of the shoot I can't begin to explain how nervous I actually felt, I was shaking and had butterflies and suddenly began to question whether I would actually be able to do the shoot at all. I needn't have worried, Leigh and Zena sat me down with a cup of tea (there was me thinking that I would need a bottle of wine!) and chatted away like they had known me forever whilst we decided which underwear I should use.
We then went upstairs to the studio where Zena did my make up and then I got changed. I must admit I felt quite self conscious when I came out of the bathroom wearing stockings, heels and my underwear but again I was at ease within a few minutes and totally shocked myself within an hour by posing naked. During the course of the shoot I was given lots of opportunities to look at the pictures and could not believe that I could possibly look this good at my age.

I can't thank you both enough for the amazing confidence boost you gave me and the feeling that my body is fine and can still be quite sexy! I did not stop grinning for months and my boyfriend was gobsmacked when I gave him the calendar for his birthday and insisted on hanging it in the kitchen so everyone could see it ( I didn't really mind as I was very proud of the pictures). He is paying for me to have some more done next year as a present. I enjoyed the experience as much as he enjoyed the final pictures!!

To anyone contemplating having a shoot I would say "just do it", the experience is just amazing."
