One of the most important factors in a successful boudoir shoot is your choice of wardrobe. You don’t want digging straps, gaping cups, or any other uncomfortable thing happening with your underwear. But most importantly, you want to feel irresistibly sexy. A great lingerie set can transform your entire mindset, a huge benefit going into […]
At least once every couple of years, I schedule a boudoir shoot for myself to stay in touch with how my clients feel. It is easy to get complacent behind the camera and to tell everyone how easy it is to “just do it.” As someone who is either in jeans and a tee shirt […]
About seven years ago, I was doing mini sessions for clients at a fancy hotel all day, and since I had the hotel room anyway, I decided to set up a date night with my then husband. I packed all my own sexy lingerie with the idea that he would come up to pick me […]
