Boudoir | Announcement!!

Since doing two boudoir shoots myself for Jeremy (one wedding gift, one birthday gift)….. I knew it was something I wanted to offer to my clients. It’s an experience you just can’t replicate anywhere else… you’ll feel so sexy, beautiful and confident!  Dana was my most recent shoot! I wanted to try and think ahead this year, and offer a boudoir weekend in November, where for a reduced rate you can have a session in time for a Valentines Day gift! But it’s only JULY! Well…. perhaps you’ve been wanting to tone up and this can give you motivation, or perhaps you just like to shop till you drop for the perfect outfit….AND… this way, your Valentines Day shopping is D.O.N.E. before Christmas! How awesome is that?!?! So here’s the skinny…. November 19 & 20 ONLY 4 spots available (2 each day) 2 SPOTS LEFT on Saturday! At a Charlotte hotel (either The Blake or The Sierra) room use is included in price 3 outfit changes (that you provide) Hair & makeup included A flushmount album to give to your significant other on Valentines DayCD of edited images Price: $575 So…. grab your BFF and be pampered for a day! Contact me ASAP to book your spot. A $150 retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve your spot. The remaining balance is due at the shoot. Feel free to come by my office & view a sample album!

Boudoir | Dana

I’ve been DYING to share a few of Dana’s boudoir photos! She originally did them as a birthday present for him to be given to him later this year…. but when he surprised her with a proposal & beautiful engagement ring on vacation in Florida, she decided to make it an engagement present! She gave him his album of images, so I finally get to share a few! We shot them in their beautiful home in Charlotte. I’d been dying to do a hot kitchen scene & she was nice enough to play along…. yes…. she went all out for a pair of Louboutins! Interested in a boudoir shoot??? Email me for details 🙂 I’m planning a weekend in November to host 4 girls in Charlotte!
