I'm going back to Cali

So about a year ago I watched a webinar from a photographer out in California.  He and his wife own and operate a portrait studio, but they really had a passion for Boudoir.  So on a whim I decided to go to their workshop all by myself and see what happened.  Well for those of you who dont' know ... THIS is what happened ....



Pretty darn exciting right?  Well guess what?? Yeap, I'm going back to Cali.  I was a part of the webinar again last night and jumped on an opprotunity to go to the workshop again.  It's going to be wild and crazy like last time ... but this time ... it's going to be BETTER!  I'll be going in January ... so ladies, you better get booked before I leave because I will be coming back with amazing stuff just barely in time for Valentines!

Stay tuned ....

Boy oh Boy my leggs are sore!

So as we all get in shape for bikin season (and for me a Boudoir session) ... I decided to go out for a run in the rain yesterday (well misting actually) ... and of course I over did it.  5 miles, but GREAT weather!

Today, man it hurts to move! But it hurts in all the right places.  I hope to get out for a little while tonight and get a quick run in again after a newborn session. 

No pain, No gain, right ladies?  Keep up all the good work ladies!  Nothing ever tasted as good as being skinny feels! :)

Ok, so WHAT is Boudoir??



OK, so you have been hearing about boudoir photography but not sure what it is. Who should do it? Why? What does is entail?

Well, you’ve come to the right place! Here are the answers to the commonly asked questions. 

First thing first….how do you actually pronounce the word? 

Boudoir – pronounced  bŏo dwăawr comes from late 18th century French word and is translated as – a woman’s bedroom or a private sitting room.  Boudoir photography, therefore, usually takes place in a setting such as a bedroom or a hotel room… an intimate setting to create classy images that can be soft, romantic, sexy, sensual, or naughty. The main focus of a boudoir photographer is to capture you in the most flattering way by guiding you through the poses that compliment your body type.

Who should go for boudoir photography?

1. A woman that wants to surprise that special one in her life with a unique and personal gift…. There’s something about seeing him open that photo album for the first time and drool all over your sexy photos (and not the ones from Maxim magazine)!

2. A woman that needs a confidence boost. O yes, we all occasionally get really tired of looking at these glossy magazines with “perfect” models on every page. Well, now it can be you looking back from a sexy picture. Why should only models have all the fun in front of the camera?  Boudoir photography will help you discover that secret seductress in you.

3. A woman that is already confident and just wants to strut her sexy stuff in front of the camera and have some fun! Why not just make it all about you and give yourself a gift? It’ll be your little secret (ssshhhh, we wont tell anyone).

 4. A woman that wants to capture her beauty forever. Lets face it, none of us are getting younger.  30 years from now a boudoir photo shoot will be the proof of your hotness. Boudoir photo album will be one of your most cherished possessions ;)

5. A woman that’s been married for a long time and well….wants to revamp her private life with her husband.

6. A woman that is thinking of having a baby and wants to have a reference point of what she wants her body to look like after the baby ;)

7. A woman size 0 to……100, well maybe there is not such size but you get the point, there is no size, weight, or height limitations. Every woman is beautiful in her own special way and boudoir photography is there to help you bring it out.


OK, so pretty much any woman is a great candidate for boudoir photography session. The only quality you need to have is well, to actually be a woman.

LACE Boudoir's owner and photographer is getting in front of the camera!!

That's right ladies and gentlemen!! I am going to go back to California and have my own boudoir session done.  The goal is to meet some girlfriends in September and show my clients I can be on the other side of the camera!

As many of you tell me, "give me a couple of months to get in shape" ... I too will be taking these next couple of months to loose weight and tone up.  I have a goal to loose 30 lbs by my 30th birthday in May and I am 10 lbs lighter already!!  2 months and 20 lbs to go!! 

Hopefully by September I will be in the 140s!!  Wish me luck and tag along as I share with everyone the tips and tricks that I learn along the way. 

Toodles!
