Raeann & Mike – A Preview

Last weekend, Tony & I had the honor of photographing Raeann & Mike’s Blueberry Hill Park Wedding in Franklin, PA.  It was an amazingly beautiful day with a little rain mixed in.  With cloudy skies threatening the day, the bridal portrait session was nothing short of amazing.  And, while I rained right at the end, Raeann and Mike took it in stride!

A Blueberry Hill Park wedding is the perfect place for a small and intimate wedding.  This beautiful couple was a joy to work with and we’ve had so much fun getting to know them.  When we went out for their engagement session, Raeann warned me that Mike didn’t really enjoy having his photos taken.  OK, no problem for me – I’ve dealt with these kinds of grooms before.  haha.  Mike did a great job at the engagement session, and his wedding – he was even better. (On a side note, this is why I always recommend engagement sessions to my clients and the reason I’m not including a complementary engagement session in our wedding package)  The love, admiration and affection he has when he looks at Raeann is something I enjoy seeing in our couples.  The subtle touches, the loving looks when she isn’t paying attention, the support when she needs it – he gives her everything!  As a wedding photographer in Pittsburgh, I get to see a lot with couples but it warms my heart to no end when I have a couple like this – their love only shines brighter in the photos.

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs!  Just a few preview photos for now, but the full blog post from their Blueberry Hill Park wedding is coming soon so please stay tuned!

White & Pink Perfection

As I write more and more blog posts about being a boudoir photographer, I always find ways to showcase the outfits selected by my clients. How about some pink panties and white sheets for you today?  Well, I have just what you’re looking for.  This amazingly beautiful woman wanted a classy and beautiful boudoir session and that’s right up my alley!  🙂

There is something so simple yet classy about a white sheet session.  I love the look of sheets, and she nailed it with the sheets!

The white setup is one of my favorites in my boudoir set options.  It’s so elegant, classy and beautiful, which fits perfectly with my boudoir photography style.  When someone wants to do a white sheet session (see her photos below), I always recommend wearing panties that have pop of color.  Something has to attract your eye in these sessions and highlighting a cute pair of lace panties does just that.  I have found that pink, blue, black and green work very well, but (for obvious reasons) I’d avoid white panties.  She wanted something like a Marilyn Monroe look, and being a boudoir photographer I can certainly accomplish those requests in these photo shoots.  In fact, the last two photos are now proudly displayed in my studio – we both love them so much!

My Victorian Sofa {Pittsburgh Boudoir Photographer}

Sometimes I’m at a loss for words….well, not really.  haha.  Today is about my Victorian sofa.

To be honest, when I told Tony I wanted to purchase this to use for photo shoots, he had objections.  Of course he did – he says that I’m in a constant state of buying props.  NOT TRUE!  But, nevertheless, I think he was more worried about where we were going to store it.

I don’t worry about such things because I’ll find a place.

So, I bought this beautiful sofa and have been so pleased with how it’s been turning out in photos.  Today’s blog post features a beautiful woman who came in for her second boudoir session with me and I was able to spend a lot of time with her testing out the different options with the sofa.  We nailed it! 🙂
