Going, going, gone!

Thank you to all of the ladies who booked the Holiday Boudoir Marathon. We are going to have so much fun!

The Marathon is now full. If you weren’t able to make this one, I will try to do another marathon in time for Valentine’s Day. Or you could still do a regular, full session anytime.

Hint of a Man

gndweb

I was watching an episode of the Girl’s Next Door last night and was paying special attention to Crystal’s photoshoot segment. They talked about how they always try to include a ‘hint of a man’ on the Playmate photo shoot sets. This is actually something that was important to me when I was searching for the perfect spot for my Ginger suite shoots. I didn’t want my photographs or products to be overly girly since the gift is usually for a man. So I chose a spot that appeals to you both…modern and stylish but not over-the-top feminine. I like to leave that part to the subject of the photos - you!

Don’t forget that you can bring something of his to your shoot to use as a prop. His tie, his button-down shirt, his hat, etc. I also design my products with your man in mind. Nothing too frilly with the design unless you request it. I strive for classy, modern, elegant…and of course, SEXY!


Miss J’s Boudoir Teasers

Miss J had only been living in Vegas for 2 weeks when she did her photo session with me! Not only was she drop-dead gorgeous, but also really, really sweet. I had so much fun hanging out with her! Thanks Miss J, for a great photo session! You rocked!

Thanks to Kat & Whitney Hera Beauty for another beautiful job on hair & makeup!

Lingerie Inspiration

I just adore the line of lingerie at Agent Provocateur. Although they are a bit pricier than other lingerie sources, their website is still fun to search for inspiration for what you might like to wear for your boudoir shoot! Take note of the exquisite lace they use on their garments…so pretty!

Little Glimpse of my Weekend

I had the best time this past Sunday. My team (Hera Beauty - Kat, makeup - Whitney, hair - Rachel, hair) and I, with the help of Kat’s husband Nate, worked on a couple of fun projects. I am never happier than when I am working on creative projects, especially with other creative people. I had such a blast with everyone and am hugely grateful for all of their help!

Hopefully I can reveal it all soon! For now though, here are a couple of candid shots of us girls.

Want to do a Boudoir Shoot but Nerves are Standing in Your Way?

I completely understand being nervous about doing pictures in lingerie. I had my boyfriend Joe take some of me awhile back so I could get an idea of what you all are experiencing from the other side of the camera. Granted, it was my boyfriend taking the shots (and not a perfect stranger) which meant there was a level of comfort in knowing him so well. But, I was still a nervous wreck! Would I hate the way I looked in the pictures he produced? Would my least favorite features be highly noticable? So many things running through my mind about it.

Well, I went ahead and set up the lighting and adjusted the settings of the camera for Joe and he began shooting pictures. I adore Joe and think he did a great job photographing me considering he isn’t a professional photographer, but he didn’t give me much direction and he was concentrating so hard on getting the shots that he wasn’t talking to me at all throughout the whole process. I had no idea if I looked like a dork with my poses or if I was doing anything right or not. It was pretty frustrating to say the least. I learned so much as a photographer from this experience though. It taught me how incredibly important it is to not only make sure you are feeling at ease but also to guide you through the entire session, coaching you into poses and expressions that work for each of you individually…and…to have more fun with the shoots and not take myself so seriously!

And, I also learned that I didn’t look as bad as I had imagined I would! Major confidence booster…we could all use one of those, right?

And now for the big reveal….

Playing Dress Up

_mg_54352web

I went out with a big group of friends last Friday and one of the super cool girls there happened to bring along a couple of wigs in honor of Halloween the next night. So, I got to play dress up as a red head (that’s me in the pic above on the right)! Thanks to David for capturing us girls primping in the mirror!

Did you dress up for Halloween this year? I would love to hear what you went as! Even better, send me a link to pics!


Luxury Album Options

One of my favorite add-ons for the luxury leather albums is the metal cameo. It’s a great way to personalize the front of your album. Simply gorgeous!

Facial Expressions for Boudoir

Good facial expressions can create a major wow factor in your photographs. During your photo session, I will always help coach you into not only specific poses but also into trying different expressions. Here are a few tips you can try on your own too!

  • Before the shoot practice expressions for different emotions: dreamy, flirty, pouty, fierce, sexy, happy, passionate, confident, sassy.
  • Pay attention to models expressions when looking through your favorite magazines of even the Victoria’s Secret website.
  • Have a strong focus on whatever you are gazing upon, whether it be directly at the camera or across the room.
  • Smile with your eyes.
  • Act like you are about to say something. (Leaning forward, open mouth, inquisitive eyes)
  • Breathe. Inhale and exhale deeply.
  • Don’t be afraid to show some personality in your pictures.
  • For each pose during your photo session, I will give you time to try out different expressions so you will have lots of looks to choose from.

And as always, have fun!
