Behind the Lens: Meet Kelly, Wausau's Top Boudoir Photographer

Welcome to a glimpse behind the lens, where you'll get to know the face and creative force behind Kelly Jacobi Photography, Wausau's Top Boudoir Photographer. It's a journey into my world, where photography isn't just a profession, but a passion and a source of empowerment.

My journey as a photographer began long before I ever picked up a camera. I've always had an immense fascination with storytelling and the power of visual narratives. The camera became my medium for translating the beauty, strength, and sensuality of the human experience into captivating images.

Hi, I’m Kelly. I am wife to an amazing guy, mom to three wild boys and one Australian Cattle Dog. Most of the time you will find us hiking and making our own adventures outdoors. We love exploring, road trips, and enjoying our backyard. And me… I love 90’s grunge and alternative/indie music. I feel at peace in the mountains, though anywhere in nature makes my heart happy. I wish life came with built-in theme songs. I sing loud in the car, even when the windows are rolled down.

I am an eternal optimist. I believe in kindness and love. I have been told I put people at ease, and they feel like they’ve known me forever. I photograph people with an artistic eye and an empath’s heart. I want to tell your story in the most honest way possible. I want to show you how beautiful and strong you are. I know it is so easy to get caught up in the to-do's that we forget to give ourselves some self love or maybe we’ve had a lifetime of feeling put down or being too hard on ourselves. I want to show you how beautiful you are, right now, not when you lose a little weight, or decide on a new hair color, or any other excuse. Your beauty and power is here and now. These moments. This life.

Empowering through Boudoir:

While I specialize in various photography genres, boudoir has a special place in my heart. It's a transformative experience for both me and my clients. The art of boudoir empowers individuals to embrace their unique beauty, sensuality, and self-confidence. Through my lens, I strive to capture not just photos, but stories of strength and self-love. Every person I work with is unique, and that's something I truly cherish. It's about celebrating your distinct personality and beauty, creating images that are a true reflection of who you are. Boudoir photography is a journey of self-discovery, and it's an honor to be a part of that journey for my clients.

Your Comfort, My Priority:

Creating a comfortable and trusting environment is paramount to me. When you step in front of my camera, I want you to feel at ease and empowered. The magic of boudoir happens when you're free to express yourself, and I'm here to ensure that you have an incredible and confidence-boosting experience.

My Approach: Where Moments Meet Creativity

I believe in creating a relaxed and fun environment during photo sessions. I know when my clients are relaxed and having fun, that’s when the magic happens.I'm not just here to take photos; I'm here to create a unique, empowering experience. Your boudoir journey is a transformation, and it's a testament to the beauty and strength that resides within you. With every click of the camera, my goal is to capture not just images but stories - stories of courage, self-acceptance, and self-love.

Why I Love What I Do

What makes photography so incredible for me is the opportunity to be a part of your journey. Every session is a unique adventure, and I feel privileged to be there to document your journey in self love and empowerment. Seeing the joy, the excitement, and the power I get to witness are the most rewarding aspects of my work. I think back to my own boudoir self portrait and how I felt in that moment, how excited I was, how much I love those photos and how years later they still bring up those emotions when I look at them. I feel so blessed that I get to share that with others, so they can feel that joy and confidence when they look back at their photos.

Client-Centered Approach

At the heart of my photography practice is a client-centered approach that prioritizes you, your vision, and your comfort throughout the entire photo session. I believe that the best photographs emerge when you feel at ease and your genuine self. That's why I take the time to listen to your ideas, preferences, and expectations. Before we even pick up the camera, we'll have a conversation to understand your unique story and the style of photography you're looking for. I'm dedicated to tailoring every aspect of the photo session to reflect your personality, desires, and the emotions you want to convey in your photographs. I spend time getting to know you, listening to your hopes for your photo session so I can really capture the heart of YOUR story. Communication is a top priority for me. Walking my clients through every step of planning so they feel heard, confident, and ready for their session. You loving your photos and this experience is my ultimate goal, and I'm here to ensure that every moment we capture is a true reflection of your individuality and the connections that matter most to you.
