Photo Set Inspired by Marilyn Monroe

See here below Jay Ablah Photography and my photoshoot inspired by the famous final photoshoot of Marilyn Monroe. This was shot very early in the morning as the sun came up at Leo Carrillo Beach. It’s something I’ve been wanting to shoot forever, and I knew that Jay was the perfect photographer for the task.

To be quite honest, I have been struggling with my body image for some time now. It comes with the territory when you hit a certain age and decide to stop modeling as frequently. But, nonetheless, it’s been an interesting journey for me the last few years. But, I have to say, this photoshoot made me feel beautiful again. Something about channeling Marilyn made me feel like a woman. And Jay did such an incredible job matching the feel of the original photos.

And here’s a more modern take on the shoot with bright light peaking in from the sun.
