It was such a treat to get to work with Miss H. the other day to make these Stevensville boudoir photos as a gift for her husband, and as a gift for herself as well. (Also, thank you again, H, for being so gracious and allowing me to share a few images on the blog!)

I met her at her home and, wouldn’t you know it, we found a perfect little nook with seriously gorgeous light to work with too!

I can’t emphasize enough how fun and special these boudoir sessions are – I love being able to help women see themselves as they truly are – beautiful inside and out.

Thank you again, H, for such a fantastic session, and again, for sharing these images. You absolutely rocked your shoot!

I can’t emphasize enough just how fun it was to make Miss S.’s Missoula boudoir pictures, as a gift to her husband AND herself (yay for being strong, beautiful women!). She was so full of energy and excitement and fantastic ideas, and I swear, we giggled our way through most of her session, which is always, always a blast!

S incorporated lights into her session, all sorts of great outfits – both casual and sensual – and I kid you not, we were giddy thinking about how awesome of a surprise gift this was going to be.

Thank you again, S, for being so kind and allowing me to share a few of your photos on this blog! You did such a fabulous job, and I’m so glad we got to work together! Yay for you! :)

It has been such a treat working with Brittnee to make some boudoir images – both for her and for use as a gift. She’s also been extremely gracious in allowing me to share some of her photos with you – and I’m so glad she did!

She did such a fabulous job on our shoot, despite being pretty nervous at first (which is always completely normal!). But look at how she rocked her images! I think it’s safe to say that the camera loves her. :)

We had so much fun during her shoot – so much laughter and silliness and, quite simply, a darn good time. Thanks again, Britt, for such a great shoot! It has been such a pleasure getting to work with you! Can’t wait to see your little black book in print!

Boudoir sessions are always so much fun to shoot – the ladies I work with are usually kind of giddy/nervous when we first start (since for many, this is a completely new thing), but by the time the session’s over, they’re elated, excited, feeling great about themselves and can’t wait to see their images. And we always keep it classy and sensual – which is hugely important to me in how I go about photographing these sessions. Nothing over-the-top here. :)

Far too often, we as women can be so overly critical of how we look (myself included). So, to be able to do these shoots and help ladies truly see just how beautiful they are, and feel confident in their beauty…that’s a pretty awesome thing to be privy to, and a huge compliment. (One of these days, I’m going to take a cue from the women I’ve photographed and do a boudoir session of my own! You ladies are inspiring!)

So, thank you again, Miss C., for such a fun shoot, and for being willing to share a few of your images! You did such a fantastic job, and my face hurt afterwards from all our laughter and smiles – a very good thing in my book. :)

There is something so wonderful about being able to capture a woman’s beauty, and have her see it for herself and really be wowed. I feel so honored when I’m asked to photograph boudoir sessions – they’re intimate and gorgeous and fun, and also so very empowering.

Oftentimes, we as women, can be so picky about our bodies and how we look, that we forget to really, truly look at ourselves – the beauty of our bodies and our personalities combined (myself included!). I was so excited when Gini called me about photographing a boudoir session for her – she wanted to do it to celebrate herself, give herself a birthday present, and teach her daughter it’s ok to love yourself, too. How awesome is that? Gini – you rock! Thank you for treating yourself and, I’m sure, inspiring others to do the same. :)

Boudoir – sensual, classy and celebrating all that is lovely about women, because we deserve it, don’t we?

I had such a wonderful time the other day photographing the brave, excited women who decided to step outside their comfort zone, take a leap of faith, and strip down to their skivvies, all in the name of giving themselves a little treat, as well as their husbands and boyfriends. :)

There are many different takes on boudoir photography – and my style of boudoir photography emphasizes classiness, sensuality and femininity. And these ladies definitely exuded all, plus some!

Thank you again to the women who participated – I had such a wonderful time, and I’m glad you all did, too. :) You are all, hands-down, stunning! Also, big props to Sunny for assisting me during the sessions, and for the lovely hair and makeup provided by Cristina and Ariel – fabulous in so many ways! Thank you, all!

I plan on offering another “boudoir marathon” in the future, so if this is something that interests you and you didn’t get to partake this time around or if you’d like to do this again, stay posted as I’ll announce openings again the blog, Facebook and Twitter. Keep in mind, these sessions make perrrrrfect Valentine’s Day gifts, as well lovely wedding day gifts to your partner-to-be. And now, on to a few sneak peeks from our sessions – enjoy!

Dates for 2012 weddings are nearly full, so if you’re interested in having me document your big day, please inquire soon as there are just a handful of dates still available. 2013 is also just starting to book, so if you’re planning a 2013 wedding, please feel free to inquire, too.)
