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!!

Most of the time when we set aside time for ourselves, we are accompanied by some guilt. Those voices tend to tell us illogical thoughts like “ You don’t deserve to take a break” or “ you could be doing something more productive”. Which then ends up circulating in our brains for the duration of the self-care event, causing you to stress out while you’re trying to relax.

“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”
— Ansel Adams

You might not like what I have to say. I have all the feels and when this happens I have a tendency to burn down bridges.

You’re a bride for one day. A wife for hopefully forever but undoubtedly you are a woman who deserves to feel beautiful and celebrated infinitely. I don’t want your photos to only be about a moment in your life, I want them to be a celebration that you can enjoy over and over!

I run my business the way I would want the experience laid out for me. I would want my shoot and my product separate so I am not buying something I don’t know if I would like. I would want the best fucking makeup I could get my hands on. I would want a photographer with experience. I would want the booking process to be pretty seamless. Jess worked her butt off to get online booking up and running so if this idea comes to you in the middle of the night and you want some details, you don’t have to wait for one of us to wake up and email you back. A bunch of information is in your inbox in a matter of minutes.

Some of us “girl” pretty damn hard on a day to day basis. Others, not so much. If even the idea of what you need to do to prepare for you boudoir shoot with The GFE Boudoir is a little overwhelming, let me help! That is what I am here for. Keep reading for some tips to help make you feel confident and prepared before you walk into the studio for your boudoir shoot.

Bravery is the audacity to be unhindered by failures, and to walk with freedom, strength, and hope, in the face of things unknown. Morgan Harper Nichols

I get asked where to shop all the time, inquiring clients get a lingerie and shopping guide in their prep materials. Noticeably absent from the list is VS. I have my favorite places from bargains to investments, I try to be able to steer you toward something you won’t regret. The hitch is they are all online. Which means shipping. Which means shit happens.
