Hello November - Glad to see you! An underrated month in my opinion! I am always happy and excited to welcome a new month! A new month means new opportunities and new goals to smash! October and December usually steal the spotlight for being the beginning of Fall and Christmas, and both unfairly upstage November!

Speaking of stealing the spotlight, Kelly completely shines in these images! Why are redheads so forever stunning!

These green hues look striking on her; from emerald to teal, any shade of green is stunning when paired with red hair!!

Boudie Fact Check- It has been scientifically proven that seeing the color red increases a viewers metabolism, heart rate and respiration. Wow, so being a redhead is a powerful fucking thing indeed!

The crimson sunsets, parting birds, crisp autumn air, and crunchy leaves are a vibe.. I am so here for all of the above! You can find me daily in the studio - cozy in chunky sweaters, editing images, with a hot coffee in hand!

Virtual Boudoir Studio Tour - The Dressing Room

Apr 3, 2024

“Make sure every square inch is camera ready.”
That was the motto of this renovation and the dressing area was certainly no exception to this rule. I knew I wanted a beautiful space for clients to get dolled up before their photoshoot and I LOVE how this space came together.

Sudsy Summer Outdoor Bathtub Photoshoot | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

May 9, 2023

I’ve dreamed of attending a foam party a la Boys and Girls starring Freddie Prince Jr ever since the movie released in 2000. Have you ever seen it? When I saw this foam machine shared in one of the Boudoir Photographer Education groups I couldn’t run to Amazon fast enough to snag my own!

I was thrilled that it arrived just in time for Rachel’s Fly on the Wall session! I was even more delighted that she was up for my shenanigans to test it out LIVE in the VIP group!

Shower Set LIVE Boudoir Photoshoot | Kansas City Photographer

Apr 24, 2023

Have you ever avoided something for a long time - using every excuse in the book not to do it - and then afterwards thought “that really wasn’t as bad as I made it out to be…” ‘cuz same. That was exactly the scenario when it came to last week’s Fly on the Wall Friday Set.

I kept avoiding going LIVE while I photographed someone in the Shower Set. I had every excuse why it wouldn’t go smoothly.

YES SIR LIVE Boudoir Photoshoot | Kansas City

Mar 31, 2023

You know what is really bringing me a lot of joy lately? These Fly on the Wall Friday sessions that I have been shooting LIVE in the Facebook VIP group! Seriously though - I’m not just saying that. It brings my 2 favorite things together - photoshoots and community - for a fun chat while I photograph a muse in the studio. I’ve had several people in the group reach out and say that they really appreciate seeing what it is actually like being photographed by me. I’ve heard that it helps calm some nerves before booking their own session with me knowing that I am going to guide them through the entire process!

An Apology Letter to my Body | Kansas City Boudoir and Body Positivity Photographer

Mar 8, 2023

When I first took these self portraits. I hated them. In fact, I didn’t even look at them again for another week. Seeing them now, in a different headspace, it makes me a little sad to think about. How unfair and unkind I was to myself that day. The pictures are the exact same. I didn’t retake them. Someone didn’t sneak in and photoshop away my insecurities. I was feeling frustrated [read hormones] with my body that day. I felt sluggish and bloated and just not like myself. I ached all over and PMS was hitting my emotions hard. Now I see art, strength, and love. So I wrote an apology letter to my body from my soul and we became best friends as a result.
