Modern Geisha モダン芸者

jezaphoto — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 10:11:28 +0000

A master at her arts of teasing…
and pleasing.
She loves without loving;
Waiting to be called to become the mysterious consort again.
Learning to gain her pleasure through others.
the unattached concubine masking her
emotions to say what the other needs to hear.
Controlling the circumstance with submission.
sending the bodies she touches into sweet convulsions.
Pleasing the mind as well as the body.
Provoking profound thoughts with simple words.
Providing a ear to listen,
not just the lips to whisper into one.
Gracefully, fluidly dancing
to distract one from his troubles.
Singing smooth melodies,
the notes linger in the air like her
enticing fragrance.

Japanese Kimono – Winter Editorial Portrait Session Teasers – South Lake Tahoe, California. Memoirs of a Modern Geisha

Her mouth

is like

a small red heart

Her hair,

black and shining,

swept up

into an abstract geometry

of tender secrets.

But behind the white mask,

the humble step,

those delicate

bowed shoulders and

cultivated sighs, is

an ancient matter of wills:

hers

bent to yours.

Sandra & Carol Glamorous Birthday Photoshoot

jezaphoto — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 21:40:50 +0000

12-28-2010, today we want to dedicate this blog post to wish Sandi & Carol: HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Sandi and Carol are born on the very same day; to celebrate this year of their spectacular birthdays together, they hired us earlier this month to shoot their birthday portraits. I remember on the day of shooting, it was raining so bad outside, but the rain did not stop these two glamorous ladies getting their beautiful pictures taken. They’ve booked a hotel room at the Sofitel San Francisco Bay for the photo session. This French inspired boutique hotel in Redwood City perfectly matched the mood and style of photography we had planned for their session. I think these two ladies ROCKED their photo session. What do you think?

Sweet Romance Boudoir Session

jezaphoto — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 08:00:37 +0000

It was such a romantic project to do this boudoir shoot on last Saturday. As I watched the makeup artists and stylist prepping the set, I kept asking myself “Is this reality or it is a dream?”, both Je & I felt so surreal because we were surrounded by these four highly desirable, astonishing ladies on this beautiful day. On top of that, I am thankful for all the talents who came because we shared a single vision – to ROCK the fashion world with our feminine version of romantic lingerie looks. We had a total blast during the shoot and I thought I was in a boudoir party at many moments during the shoot too: we had a lot of laughs, snacked on junk food, talked about boys and shared many silly jokes. Most importantly, this shoot would not be successful without ANY of our crew member missing. Thank you Jeremy, Jessie, Sophie, Aine, Germaine, Crystal, Amber and Miyouko. You guys ROCK!!!

Also big thanks to Scott Robert Lim my photography mentor who taught us about posing & model interaction; also Len Cook from our community college photography instructor who taught us about lighting set up. These skills became VERY handy for the shoot. THANK YOU!

Teasers up for now and we will post more pictures very soon, so stay tune! Happy Valentines Day everyone! Please say hello and leave us some lovely comments! XOXO!
