More about your photographer:
Jessica Judge is my name. My pronouns are They/them/theirs. I am a genderqueer(non-binary) Empowerment photographer, body image activist, cat parent, multi-faceted artist, DJ and performers. Overall- I like to think I'm a cool or at the very least, interesting person.
My journey is constantly evolving, and for that I am so grateful. Thankful for all of the amazing humans I have met along the way. My goal has remained mostly the same. To hold space for you while you explore yourself, your humanity. To empower you and your journey through your body image.
After 10 years of photographing everything from concerts, music & art festivals, corporate events, boudoir, portraiture, families, and weddings... All of these involve a level of connection, between those in attendance, those and their environment, those with their bodies, and of course folks with me.
I can't even tell you how many times I have heard: "You'll photoshop me skinny, right?" or "Don't make me look fat". Some folks won't even look at me or enjoy a nice memory with their loved ones for fear of the camera, they are so uncomfortable in their skin. There had to be a deeper purpose in my work.
Fast forward- NOW. I still do all of those other related sessions, but my priority lies in body liberation, feeling empowered. Body image and you. I want you to see the value in providing the gift of empowerment and expression to yourself. Your body is worth documenting. All of it. Every angle.
I'd like to note, that as a society-we have been so subtly trained to only do 'intimate' style sessions to gift and provide to our partners. Particularly catering to the "male gaze". (They should be so PRIVILEGED to indulge in our self-expression and vulnerabilities) Most of my client's do this for themselves.
My goal is to create an inclusive, cumulative space for all bodies and communities. This is something I am forever working on, we are all students of life, we can all learn something from each other.
