I’ll wait… haha! I love harnesses and mixing softer & sweeter touches with the hardness of the leather and look of one. Cat said it was one of her fave things to wear so of course we had to use it during our session 😻

Okay but seriously! what a dream. Cat is a stunning farmer who I absolutely loved working with. She showed up to her session with harnesses, shibari rope and sexy lingerie. I can’t wait share more from the other sets!

Always always always magic! I love to work with other boudoir photographers and give them the opportunity to enjoy the process from a client perspective. There’s always such a go with the flow kinda vibe.
I’ve worked with Melanie a few times now in my Richmond studio. First her maternity boudoir session, then her wedding and now another boudoir session. She always brings such a fun, playful and open-minded attitude and energy that I love.
For this session, we had very little d...

Every session is tailored to my client. Boudoir is personal. So it should feel personal and not just some cookie cutter experience. When you see your portraits, I want you to feel connected to them. Deeply connected. My client wanted a Jane-Austen-Scotch-Tea-Party-Goddess-Vibe. So that's what she got!
what would you incorporate into your session?!

I can't wait to share more from this stunning session. It was truly a dreamy and romantic one!

I can't express how many times I've chatted with someone and their assumption of boudoir is that nudity or very revealing lingerie is a requirement. That couldn't be further from the truth. Satin/silk slips are also options that can also be very sexy! Remember it's all about how you rock it! I've had clients wear a bra and pants and still exude ultra sexy and feminine energy.

When you upgrade to the Divine Collection, you receive a backdrop bonus. Let me tell ya!!!! Most clients end up loving these images so much that they pick

When my client showed me this set from Urban Outfitters that she brought to the studio, I was IN LOVEEEE! I love super feminine, delicate lingerie. It even has a slight vintage look which made me swoon even more. Immediately when I saw it, I knew we had to do a dreamy look. Simple but dreamyyyy AF.

My dear friend and hair Bianca came into the studio right before her move to Montana. I couldn’t let her leave without some nude 😂

Ah!!! My heart! How amazing is this leather green corset vest that my client ordered for their session!

But seriously! How can you truly go through the motions of the client experience when you haven't been a client yourself.
Having a boudoir session for myself helped me :
-understand just how vulnerable this experience can feel
-how posing can be uncomfortable and how important it is to take a water or stretch break when needed
-how confronting it can be to see images of yourself in a way you never have
-how healing a boudoir session can be with t...

I genuinely want my clients to know that while they may feel inspired by me, I am equally inspired by them. When Nancy booked me, it was a few months after her husband passed. After being his caretaker for years during his illness, she wanted to remind herself that life is not over. So, what did she do?! She booked her FIRST boudoir session at the age of 70. So, if you've found yourself lately saying you can't do something because of your age, I encourage you to channel some of Nancy's beauti...

When it comes to wardrobe - you can go as simple or sexy as YOU want! The key is bringing in pieces that make YOU feel amazing!

The last time I posted an image of a naked woman with fruit, my instagram was deleted (thankfully only temporarily).
Ash wanted to do a fun, quick shoot with watermelon. which is funny because she hates watermelon and didn’t enjoy eating it for this shoot.
while these shoots are fun, they are soooo messy and not something I enjoy cleaning up Haha.

When many people hear boudoir they immediately think of intense sexualized imagery. I love going against that and creating boudoir work that feels more aligned with divine femininity. As many say - boudoir for the female gaze.
This client came in before her wedding. She wanted to celebrate her body, as it is now, before marriage and children. I fucking loveeee that! Taking a moment to honor yourself before major changes in life.

While the timing isn’t my fave, the light is 😍

Have fun. Try different light. Don't be afraid to create personal work that might not work out the way you envisioned.
Mari and I had no plan when shooting this set. Using flash wasn't even something we expected to play with that day. What I love about working with Mari is that she is always down and excited to try anything. The creative chemistry we have together shows in everything we create together.

A friend Dana, who I loveee working with, came for a visit and stopped by my studio with a visionboard filled with 90's lingerie catalog styled images. Immediately it was a fuck yeah from me.
I used a constant light with a sheet of yellow cellophane over it to get the lighting just how I wanted it. I felt the vibe called for something different and it is always nice to break away from my typical way of working.
These were so much fun and I can't w...
