When we went into lockdown, there were fantastic and unexpected benefits for me. I was able to clean out my closets. Whittle down my stack of papers that gets taller everyday. I got to enjoy my teenagers. My dog finally got the attention she deserves. It was really lovely to be still for a while. […]

This is a collaboration between yourself and I. All you need to do is show up and trust me to deliver our best work.

ICYDK, we do actually photograph maternity portraits and I’ve not really talked about it and that shocked me too!!

When you have a boudoir session with me, one of the first things we’ll discuss is your privacy. Some women prefer to have zero images shared anywhere. Some are OK with me posting to a private and secure group online for other clients to see, and some don’t mind having their images shown on my Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, or Website.

Did you know I have a referral program for boudoir sessions? When you refer a friend, and they schedule with us, you will both receive $100 product credit. Yes, you read that right! Take this as my way of saying thank you. So if you’ refer ten friends…you do the math!

If you’ve not eaten you can’t hear me and you can comprehend what I’ve asked you to do. if you can’t follow and be coached because your brain is busy trying to figure out where the fuck the famine came from, I could very well ask you to go home. Couple some booze on a totally empty stomach and you’ve just wasted your money and my time. (Yes, I sound like an asshole but I am the expert and you chose me because I know how to make your session fire as hell, let’s not blow it because we are afraid of a banana.)

If you bring lingerie, make sure you love it. I mean like seriously fucking love it. It is so amazing you absolutely have to wear it and would fight me on it if I said its a no. If it is just ‘meh’ leave that lukewarm crap at home. This is where most of my clients get stumped!! Lingerie just isn’t part of our clothing foundations anymore. So most of us don’t know what we like, what fits well or even where to find it. I am your best resource for this. Use me, Girlfriends! I am here for you. In fact I created a really fun and simple quiz that might give you some insight into what your lingerie style might be and give you some jumping off points to help you find your lingerie style!

In my experience as a boudoir photographer, I’ve run into three different kinds of partners: the type that is over-the-moon gung-ho about having sensual images of their wife, the type who is extremely resistant to the idea, and the type that isn’t quite so sure what to make of it all. If you fall into the latter two camps, I ask you to read through the below reasons why having boudoir pictures of your wife is actually pretty amazing.

So you finally did that thing you’ve been promising yourself you’d do something for yourself for ages and now you want to to make good on that promise to yourself? What are you going to do??! Book a boudoir shoot, that’s what! Here are five reasons why this is an excellent idea:

I don’t think you can either hate yourself or love yourself to a point of returning to health but I do think you can work on accepting where you have a weakness, like being kinder to your body or appreciating your body and progressing forward from there.
