This is a question that I received recently and I think it’s really important. Have I Ever Done Boudoir?

Yes I have.

After I decided that I wanted be a boudoir photographer, I was feeling kind of bad about myself and my marriage. Truth be told, Tony and I went through some really tough times in the first couple of years our marriage. I just really felt that if I was going to be a boudoir photographer, I needed to learn to accept myself and appreciate who I was at that exact moment because I can’t be a hypocrite to women. I can’t say, “Love who you are right now”, when I wasn’t really loving myself. So I had to take time for myself and come to accept me for who I am. To understand what my clients go through and help with my own personal issues, I needed to have a boudoir session.

In June of 2013, I had a boudoir shoot done. My shoot was something that I was nervous for but very excited, which is a completely normal feeling for clients. Doing something like this was completely out of my comfort zone but it was something that I knew I needed.

It really helped me understand how I want to present myself to my clients. Having had this experience I know that it can be something that’s intimidating as well as scary. I want all of my clients to feel confident and sexy as well as have a good time during their shoot.

I know that every photographer as well as every client is different than the last so it’s important to me as a photographer that every single client I have has an amazing shoot. Having done a boudoir shoot, I reached a whole new level, it’s not that I was copying what my boudoir photographer did because I don’t feel like that way, I just learned how I want women to feel during their shoot. I’m hopeful that all my clients have an amazing time with me and it’s something I really value.

Enjoy some photos from a recent shoot.  This client told me that she felt like a ROCKSTAR during her shoot!  SUCCESS!
