Read MoreCan we talk about the elephant in the room for a second? MONEY is a topic many people tend to shy away from but I think it’s important to talk about. There are many misconceptions about boudoir and sometimes inquiring clients get sticker shock when I send them my pricing. I get it. We see posts all the time of our local photographer offering family sessions for as little as $100. So when I send you my price guide and there are 4 numbers before the decimal - it's shocking. However, I find that usually sticker shock comes from clients not being fully educated on what a boudoir session entails.

I encourage all clients to take their monthly friend into consideration when booking a session date to avoid issues down the road. However, if you are anything like me - while my periods are light - the timing is unpredictable. She kind of does her own thing and shows up when she feels like it - kind of like that friend or relative that pops in unannounced and usually at the worse possible time.
Read MoreAfter photographing a few more friends and models for practice I quickly found how impactful a boudoir photoshoot can be for someone. It is a full day, focused on making you feel like a million bucks! The session is SO MUCH FUN. It is like playing dress up with your gal pal and laughing the whole time. You get to see yourself dolled up with the red carpet treatment - complete with hair and make up - posed to perfection. It is having the biggest hype man - me - by your side cheering you on the whole day. GO LITTLE ROCKSTAR! It’s finally being able to see the beauty in yourself that everyone that loves you sees. TALK ABOUT EMPOWERING!

Read MoreI love the creek set very obviously for it’s natural beauty. The rocks are perfectly positioned for a place to sit next to the creek without needing to actually get wet if you don’t want to. The overall colors from the trees and grass, rocks, and muddy creek are so warm and inviting. The sun peeks through the tree tops to provide interesting shadow patterns. The creek set is located just inside the property’s tree line, making it private enough to opt for implied or full nude which is always thrilling. There is a lot to love here.
