Wow just wow!! I don’t know where to start, what an Amazing experience. Right from the beginning of meeting Johanna right until the reveal everything was just perfect and she was absolutely Amazing! I was so nervous for the shoot, I suffered back last year with a really bad flare of psoriasis that covered all over my body from head to toe I lost all my confidence. I had treatment and now I’m left with a lot of scars over my body from the psoriasis. I was really anxious about doing the shoot because of my scars but Johanna made me feel so at ease the day of my shoot, I felt so comfortable everything was just absolutely perfect and I forgot about all my scars. I just felt glamorous and amazing. The big day of the reveal was incredible I couldn’t actually believe it was me in the photos I am absolutely in love with them. I have come from having my shoot feeling so much more confident! Ladies I Highly recommend having one of these shoots with Johanna you will feel like an absolute queen!! Thankyou so much Johanna for helping bring my spark back to light. I will definitely be returning in the future for more shoots. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Xx
I’m not sure I have the words. Fun, exciting, amazing, empowering, profound…. Oh… and it’s a real workout! Even without the photos, the experience was incredible. I’ve spent this year rediscovering myself and this was the icing on the cake.
I had always wanted to do something like this, but never felt confident enough, but I'm so glad I did. Johanna was very professional and made me feel really comfortable, such an empowering, and really enjoyable experience, I'd highly recommend
AMAZING !! I don’t have words expressive enough to portray how amazing Jo is how amazing this experience was, so liberating and beautiful. Not to mention how stunning and amazing my pics are! I’m in love with myself 💓 I can’t stop looking at my pics, Jo thank you 😘
I really don’t know where to start with this review. From the first time I spoke with Jo there was such a great connection, with her friendly , kind and professional manner . For me there was a very personal reason for doing this photoshoot . Being diagnosed with cancer has been a very traumatic time . A time that has made me feel sad , angry and not feeling good about myself and my body. However Jo filled me with confidence that made me feel good about myself before having my surgery . A reflection of my bodies journey and that I can feel sexy and desirable . The whole experience made me feel amazing , having my makeup done and the attention that Jo gave me throughout the shoot. When I went to my reveal I actually cried , I could not believe the photos were of me, I never imagined I would look at them and see such confidence with my body Thank you Jo, you did that and I am so very grateful .

What can I say, as the words thank you just don't seem enough. After years of wanting to have a boudoir shoot but never having the confidence to even book it, to get the call from you was just the absolute push I needed. The whole process from our first telephone conversation about hiring a hit man to our shoot where my deformed fingers kept literally getting in the way is one of the most momentous times of my life and will remember that day forever. Fast forward 2 weeks to my reveal where I'm feeling so nervous and in my head I was going to look old and ugly. When you put the screen on I was totally shocked and was actually lost for words. It honestly took me a few minutes to realise that who I was looking at was me. I actually for the first time looked a photo of myself and thought....wow that's me, I am beautiful, I am worthy and dare I say it... damn girl you hot. The whole process has helped me put a lot of ghosts and fears finally in a box where they will stay now. Its only been a few days and I'm still looking at them, feeling so proud of myself and thankful to you for the amazing woman you also are. I will forever be grateful to you and you will forever be a big part of my life.
Well I was recommended Johanna by a friend as I needed some new headshots done and my friend had previously used Johanna for business headshots, fun photographs reflecting her personality well for her business and then a boudoir shoot too. My friend kindly showed me her photographs and I was really impressed so I took the gamble and booked with Johanna. I am INCREDIBLY fussy when it comes to photographs, headshots especially as I really don't like the 'fake' / 'posed' type photo, but oh my goodness me I would recommend Johanna over and over. She really managed to pull out my personality in these photos and they are absolutely perfect for what I wanted and needed. I am a dance teacher who runs a dance school so my 'brief' was quite specific in what I wanted. It is lovely to see photographs of myself that I am proud of and really feel are beautiful - and I am actually proud to say that! - Which isn't usually like me as I can tend to pick holes in myself like many of us do. As I was booking with Johanna anyway I was stuck with ideas of what to do for my partner for Christmas... after chatting to my friend who recommended Johanna I thought I would just bite the bullet and just go the whole hog and book a boudoir shoot too! And my oh my no matter how nervous you or out of your comfort zone you are it was the best, BEST experience. Really empowering and wow the end results did not disappoint! I was with Johanna for over 3 hours, which included getting my make up done and wow I did really feel that Johanna was excited to work with me and took the time to try and get the most out of the shoot and the outfits I had got for it. I ordered the larger package as I just wanted to make the most out of the experience and got some prints done in a beautiful box for him as a gift (Which Johanna organises and sorts for you). Once upon a time ago I would have NEVER ... EVER done anything like this... and now I know I will always look back and be so proud and grateful that I did. Johanna is great from the start of the process to the end - I had so many (probably annoying) questions and Johanna always got back to me really quick, double checked anything and was really reassuring. Great communication and great personal service always respectful of your wishes and encourages you to bring your ideas and opinions forward at all times as getting any photographs done is so personal to each person. It is a once in a life time thing and something that not just your partner will appreciate but YOU will. You learn and see a new love and appreciation for yourself, which is so important, especially in the way the world can be today. If you also want to do something for you and are not sure what .. THIS, this is what you should do. So I HIGHLY recommend Johanna! I would say if you are debating whether to do it... JUST DO IT and of course do it with Johanna!
I can't recommend johanna enough. From start to finish. My photos are gawjus!!!! Thank you so much
My 2nd time visiting Johanna Elizabeth and I couldn’t recommend this lovely lady and her team enough. Photoshoot was amazing and so much fun. Final photographs are absolutely stunning. Thank you Jo xx
From the very first phone call to even now with keeping in touch this has been by far the best experience ever. With the best bunch of ladies who instantly put you at ease, make you feel welcomed, cherished and most importantly SEEN. I cannot recommend Johanna Elizabeth - Empowerment Photographer enough. I was shaking a like a leaf on the day but the moment i set foot in the studio i was put at ease, we laughed and chatted throughout the whole time. Then when it came to the reveal of the photo's i just couldn't believe they were actually me. How could someone manage to capture the inner me and bring her out to life, a very naturally talented lady called Johanna that's who. I'm already thinking of ideas on what i would like my next shoot to be, as this definitely going to be a yearly present to myself. To give me the boost and remind me of exactly who i am. 🥰
Wow, what an amazing experience. I was admittedly nervous, but the ladies soon put me at ease. Before long , I stopped worrying about my lumps and bumps and was enjoying every minute. I felt gorgeous, empowered, extremely confident, and the winks I got on the way home, well.... I did this just before lockdown, then forgot about it, until Jan 24 when Ange called to say she had found them. Having kept them knowing I am a nurse. My now husband adores them, and has been talking about a return visit with the silver wings. Ladies, a huge Thank you for making me feel so good. Those of you deliberating, just do it !! I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
From start to finish I had the best experience and branding shoot with Jo. From the consultation Zoom call, Jo was lovely and approachable and got me so excited and pumped for the shoot. She invited all my ideas and was really keen to work with these as well as making amazing suggestions herself. She had done some research on me and business before the call and really got My vibe. The day of the shoot was amazing and so much fun!! We laughed ALOT and was just like catching up with an old friend. Jo instantly had me at ease in front of the camera and I felt really relaxed (she is a great cheerleader and motivator). If you’re looking for a brand shoot photographer or haven’t had a brand shoot - you need one and you need to book Jo, honestly you will not regret it!! Thank you so much for the experience and the beautiful images, I love them and they really do capture my personality and business ethos.
I've just spent the afternoon with Jo on a Women in Business "personal brand" shoot. Such a fabulous experience! We had a pre-chat about the business, the clientele and what the pictures were for before we started, as well as ideas for clothing/places, so we had the most time to actually take pictures at our appointment. She put me at ease straight away, knew exactly how to emphasise the better bits and hide my yuck bits! All the little touches like where to put your hands, little props and tweaks to make the best pictures. Absolutely professional, yet still made it great fun. My only problem? Which of the pictures to use first! Thank you Jo - Highly Recommended!
The entire experience was amazing from start to finish. I originally signed up for a competition never expecting to actually win- and here we are! From the very first phone call Jo and the team made me feel at ease. Never before would I have felt comfortable doing something like this but they made me feel fantastic! On the day it was so much more relaxed than I originally expected. Cup of tea and make up done (beautiful!) and then the shoot was fun and I laughed the whole way through! The reveal was fabulous. I am so happy I got to do it in person. The results were gorgeous and I’ve never seen myself like before. If you are considering a shoot like this I couldn’t recommend Jo more. I’ve always hidden away from cameras and never EVER show photos. These I can’t stop looking at. So Thankyou!!!
I have never ever felt so sensational and empowered all at one time than what I experienced with johanna and her stunning team.. from the first appointment to my final reveal I was made to feel heard, every detail came to life in their hands. I no longer look at myself the way I did before having this done now when I look in the mirror I see the best version of me the sexy side of me and I love what I see. I own me again and that feels incredible.
I had my photoshoot last month, and the whole experience from start to finish was incredible. Everyone was so amazing from the consultation beforehand to the makeup and then having the shoot done by the amazing Jo. I was very anxious when I arrived, but they all put my nerves at ease, Jo is so talented and such an incredible person. I was more nervous taking my partner as a surprise to see the reveal as I had no idea what I was going to walk into but omg I had nothing to worry about the pictures were absolutely stunning and I can finally see myself in a different light, I couldn't believe they are ME the real me. Every single picture was breathtaking. Thank you so much ❤️
Had a fantastic experience with the team at Johanna Elizabeth. From the design consultation through to the reveal session, the ladies were so lovely and knew exactly how to both support and stretch me to get the most out of this experience. The photos I have are honestly incredible, I can’t thank the team enough!
These ladies are best. It was best experience they made me feel so comfortable and welcome. The atmosphere was so chill and calm. Didn’t take long for my confidence to kick in. Ended up with the most stunning pictures. My favourite had pride of place in my bed room over the bed 😍
I had a shoot with these amazing ladies a few weeks ago. They were so lovely and made me feel so welcome and at ease I even forgot at one point I had next to nothing on!! Johanna is such a skilled photographer she really knows how to draw attention away from what you don't like and turn it into something you love. The photos were just beautiful and I had a really difficult time choosing which ones to keep. If anyone is thinking about doing a shoot just give these amazing ladies a ring, one of the best things I've ever done 😍
Wow! I never thought I'd find myself doing something like this! I entered the competition feeling like I could maybe get the chance to see the new me after a fair amount of weight loss, but didn't honestly expect to win! But wow am I so grateful I did! The team are fabulous and become your biggest cheerleaders. Leading up to each stage of this amazing experience I became insanely nervous and was sure I would bottle it, but Ange and Joanna were so reassuring and built my confidence to do something I never thought I'd be able to do! I've always had great difficulty seeing myself in a positive way or believing compliments, I hide myself away as much as possible, but when the time came for my reveal, I was shocked and proud! I didn't think I could look like that! The emotion that took over me was unlike anything I have ever experienced, and for the first time in my life I have started like myself. For anyone who may be thinking they don't have the confidence or know how, just go for it, the lovely ladies will put your mind at ease and support you the entire journey! Best experience ever!
