Emma's Photo shoot


Emma is an aspiring model who needed some shots for her portfolio. Even though we only worked together for a short time, I always try to create a wide variety of looks.

Family Fun

This week I shot a ton of fun people. One family session was a great time. And with any family this is always a standout. I think everyone will agree that she is too cute.

Winner gets her Photoshoot

This weekend the winner of our free boudoir photoshoot came in to collect her prize. Like almost all of our clients she had never done anything like this before and was very nervous. She brought someone along to help her out.

We started off with my basic start to see how she would work with the camera. Once I saw how to work best with her we discussed her desires for the shoot.

Throughout the shoot I would stop and show her shots and she was amazed. Even without retouching, the combination of posing and lighting made her look amazing.

She got her proofs the following day and she said she is having a very hard time reducing the list of photos down to a reasonable size as there were so many great photos.

Why people want boudoir photography

With the closing of the boudoir and glamour photography contest, the reasons giving for wanting to win were interesting and varied. There were almost as many reasons as entries.

There were the standard reasons such as gift for future groom, anniversary present and of course Christmas present.

And then those for themselves as well as their loved ones, such as capturing youth, lifting spirits and boosting confidence.

And a few men who wanted to give it to their wives to let them know they think they are sexy.

There were many, many other reasons given. Boudoir photography makes a great gift in so many ways.
