2020 - What a year!
I am sure, like me, many of you have found yourselves hung up on all the negatives this year brought about. Some of which, for me, were seemingly devastating at the time, even without a world wide pandemic. However, now that the longest year ever is finally coming to a close, I find myself looking back at 2020 with a lighter heart.
While the studio saw far fewer clients than an average year, this year was anything but average.
Dear Men… xo Your Boudoir Photographer
Dear Men, I am sorry.
I am sorry that you mustered up the courage to look for a photographer and you struggled to find one that was willing to work with you.
I run an inclusive studio, so it should come as no surprise to you that I would photograph men. However, sadly, it is not common place. Specially in regards to Intimate Portraits and Boudoir.
Busting Excuses : Why you deserve a Boudoir Experience!
Excuses stem from fear.

Why I am a Boudoir Photographer
I’ve been a visual artist as long as I can remember – Drawing, painting, sculpting. Regardless of the medium, my subject matter has remained consistent. People – portraits – body scapes. So it’s no surprise then that when I decided to focus on photography as my medium that it wasn’t landscapes – it was portraits.
