After a rather lengthy dry spell, I discovered with absolute delight that a certain Jessica P Rabbit was getting wonderful reviews and seemed to be just the kind of lady to help me scratch a very particular itch that I've been carrying around for ... well, a very long time.
The details stay between me and the lady, but let me just mention the important bits for the rest of you. To say the least, the scene I envisioned had a lot of moving parts in it -- it was a composite and rather involved fantasy that had been given many years to play in my mind. So of course, it had grown and evolved into something that simply couldn't be played out in reality -- too many details, and too many bigger-than-life elements. Was I ever wrong!
Some preliminary text messages and a phone call resulted in a host of questions being posed to me -- did I like this or not like that? Had I thought of adding this prop or that one? Would I like her to be doing this or doing that? I hadn't even met her yet, and here she was trying to really (REALLY) understand what I was after and making sure she had a handle one what it would take to knock it out of the park for me.
When the meeting finally happened this afternoon, I was greated by a little firecracker of a woman who struck me as much prettier than I was expecting. But what blew me away was how PERFECTLY she had transformed herself into what I had been imagining. Every little detail was there, which would have made this a great review. But on top of that where many other details that I hadn't even asked for, but immediately knew I should have. She had obviously put a great deal of thought into this -- set design, props, costume, makeup, and a number of small accoutrements. Never, and I do mean NEVER, had I gone into a session as a brand new client and had someone prepare so carefully for it.
Perhaps she's always this way, or perhaps it was the manner in which I was so obviously pleased by her creativeness and initiative, but whatever the reason the session started off with a great deal of energy and an obvious indication on both sides that we were going to enjoy this.
And then it started. WOW! Really, I mean that -- WOW!!! That scene played out not as representation and play, but as reality. I had years in which to imagine and refine that fantasy, but she immediately added details and responses and actions that fit it perfectly and which went well beyond the point where my imaginings had stopped. It was uncanny -- she had read me perfectly, understood what it was I wanted to experience, and then took me to exactly the right place, making it not only real, but vastly better than I had ever imagined it could be.
As that hour and a half played out, almost all if it a single uninterrupted take "in-scene", it was obvious from her enthusiastic engagement that a great deal of the scene appealed to her own desires. Perhaps that was just dumb luck on my part. Regardless of how it came about, though, the end result was simply mind-blowing. How many things in life are honestly better than we imagine them to be? This most certainly was.
As I lay there in a little puddle of goo trying get my lips to form words, we passed the last few minutes in conversation, and I was truly taken aback by how genuinely open and sharing she is by nature. There is a reason my session was such a good one, and I have a feeling it's the reason every one of her clients must feel the same way about her. I simply can't imagine her ever letting anyone leave less than 110% happy.
Eventually, I managed to find my feet and and Jessica accompanied me as I stumbled down the hallway towards the exit door. I remember the receptionist coming down the hall towards the room we had used, and heard Jess head her off with "Don't even bother yet -- it's an absolute disaster in there!" I've never, ever left a MP feeling prouder than I did at that moment
I'm not sure how to sum this up. I'm not going to bother with the L/A/S numbers -- looks are a matter of personal taste and preference, and she most definitely suits mine. Her attitude is simply out of this world, and her service reflects that.
For those who haven't seen her but are thinking about it, just book a session already. For those who remember, I'd say she has the great warmth and genuineness of Mischa McKinnon (now Mischa Bliss, I believe) combined with the take-no-prisoners approach of Sineh. All wrapped up in a very, very unique package.
So thank you, Jessica, for by far the greatest and happiest surprise this hobby has ever afforded me.
