Fiance's shirt.


The garter adds a little sexiness.

The veil wrapped around her body.

Meet Jewel!


Hello this is a photo of me Jewel. I thought it would be nice to post a photo of myself for the girls who are coming for appointments soon and for the girls who are interested in coming. Maybe it will make you a little more at ease once you see I am just an average girl with a smiling face.
Here is a little information about my experience with boudoir photography.
I started shooting boudoir photos about 2 and a half years ago. When I first decided I was going to do this type of photography I practiced on my sister and a few of my girlfriends. This was just to make sure that this would be something I was comfortable doing. The outcome was I loved it! I love shooting boudoir for a couple of reasons. The first is it is a great feeling when you are able to help boosts someones self esteem and show them there beauty through a photo. Another reason is it is just fun. Its a fun girlie thing to do. I also love creating different poses and using light in different ways.
Here is a little information about my personality. The best way I like to describe myself when girls are nervous about coming, is that I am just like having one of your girlfriends in the session with you. I will laugh with you, not at you. I will help you to coordinate your lingerie and help you get dressed if you need help. In Fact, I think I am expert at clipping the garters on to the stockings. (not something I thought I would ever say) Expert Garter Clipper! :)
I am there to make you comfortable and help you relax.
Well that wraps the about me section up for now, I will be posting new boudoir photos soon and photos of my studio.

Burlesque Inspired Hair Clip Giveaway!


Above are two photos of a burlesque inspired feather hair clip designed and made by me! I am giving it away to the 7th girl who emails me. Please put B-clip in your subject box!
So I told you there will be giveaways and there will be! Of course they will all be boudoir inspired! Anyway, I am now starting to design and sell these hair clips. The reason being is I have seen them from to time to time and they are extremely expensive. I don't know anyone who wants to spend $60.00 or more on a hair clip they may only wear once or twice. The hair clips are a great addition to a boudoir photo shoot. They are fun and sometimes it helps to have a little something extra to make you feel more sexy.
Please email me if you are interested in buying a hairclip they are $15.00. You can choose the colors. I will have a gallery of options soon.

What to wear??

One of the biggest questions I am asked is What to wear?

I always say to bring everything, bring the house you never know what you'll want when your at the studio.
Now with that said, the absolute essentials are a pair of black panties and a pair of white panties. With these 2 items any great boudoir photographer can create numerous images and styles you will love without revealing more than you want to. At my studio, I have a few different items to cover your top that are fun, flirty and sexy.
If you have the money and you want to splurge a little on yourself, head out to your local lingerie store and have fun! Try many different styles of lingerie, you never know what is going to look good on you. As many of you are aware that when looking for your wedding gown, not all the ones in the magazine that you looked at, were the right style for you. This is the same for lingerie!

ACCESSORIES!! Bring, high heels! They have more than one use. First they look great on your feet and second they help you stand with better posture and raise your back end up a little helping to smooth out the legs! Bring Jewels! All the jewels you would like, the bigger and bolder the better! Thigh highs and fishnets are always fun! Garters and if you have your veil for your wedding!

Now that we have covered the lingerie, we can move on to other sexy ideas! Some of the girls that have come to my studio have asked if they can bring items that their man is into.
So here is a list for that:
If your man is into Sports:
Favorite team jersey
Team Hat
Props: bat, balls, golf clubs
If your man is into Music:
Instrument
If you man is into his job or yours:
Bring any items you think might relate!
Lastly, you can can bring his shirt and tie or favorite T-shirt!
Oh and one more thing! You can have the your panties customized with his name. You can do this yourself by going to the craft store or you can order them off eBay.

To wrap it up I am going to leave you with a list of stores to shop at:
Obviously Victoria Secrets!
H&M has alot of cute bra and pantie sets that are affordable
JcPenney is great if you have a larger chest size!
Walmart carries a bunch of stockings including the thigh highs and fishnets.
Hot Topic has a cute hair accessories
Ebay has Team Garters that are cute!
This list can go on forever but I just wanted to share a few things!

Anyone who has additional ideas and would like to post a comment about it and where you bought it. It would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
