Mo and the Magnolias - 4/21/16

she woke up every morning with the option of being anyone she wished. how beautiful it was that she always chose herself. ~ tyler kent white 

I keep seeing all these pretty canopies of floral clouds everywhere I walk now. It's great to see the earth finally blooming after what seemed like a forever winter (and how it teased us!).

The magnolias are always my favorite. Their blooms are so full and soft, each fine petal a gradient of rose to ivory and they reach and cascade down to our level to greet us and scatter us with their delicate, lush confetti. I always want to dance through their showers.

Mo was perfect for a first spring photo shoot. If she couldn't reach the blossoms, she brought them to us and made some magic happen, shaking the glitter from their branches.

Boudoir Day 2016!! Mark Your Calendars for MAY 1st!!!

 

 I've booked a professional makeup artist and hired a few awesome helping hands, and I am so excited to bring you (FINALLY) another Boudoir Day marathon event!!!

What is a Boudoir Day event, exactly? These events are back-to-back photo shoots in one location, with one team, in one place. Session fees include a half hour of shooting, hair and makeup, and other goodies at a special discounted rate apart from regular, individual sessions. To learn more about boudoir photography, visit my site here.

I've booked a beautiful room at Madison, Wisconsin's little gem Hotel Ruby Marie and will have 5 slots available for the afternoon that fine Sunday. Without revealing too much, sessions do include professional hair/makeup as well as special product rates and offers.

For the time being, I am just announcing the date and the place. My team and I are still working getting some details together and we plan to have the time slots set up in order to officially announce the event and start booking NEXT WEEK! For now, this is our little "Save the Date" as you will....

BOUDOIR DAY 

Where: Hotel Ruby Marie (Madison, WI)

When: May 1, 2016 (We start shooting at 1pm)

***PLEASE FOLLOW SOCIAL MEDIA FOR FURTHER INFO AND BOOKING***  

On a personal note, I'm really excited to hold one of these events after 2 years in school and other business ventures and projects. Shooting boudoir has always been my favorite type of photography, and it is so amazingly rewarding for myself and especially my wonderful clients. I can't wait to share with you all the awesome things we have up our sleeve for this event. Hopefully this is just the beginning of more magical, wonderful things.

Spontaneous Portraits (Summer 2015)

Sometimes you just need to ask to take pictures of people to stay inspired. It helps when your friends are these people. Here's a look back to that impromptu photoshoot from Late July.

Of course, we ended our day with pizza.
