Lizzy Palmer 053 900x601 Going up in Smoke....

Lizzy and I got together again so that we could get creative. I needed to try something new, and I had been inspired recently to do a session that would help to break the stigma of smoking marijuana. So many of my clients partake, as have I. None of us match the perpetuated image, and I wanted to take this opportunity to help normalize things a bit. Anyone, from all different walks of life are just as likely to enjoy it as you are. Some may use it recreationally, some for medical/therapeutic reasons, but each and every one of them are beautiful and shouldn’t be judged, shamed for it or have assumptions made about them because of it.

Lizzy Cox 030bw 900x600 2018 Boudoir Favorites Roundup

It’s no exaggeration that 2018 has been a really tough year on me, my family, and so many other people that I know. However, I gave myself a light workload for December so that I could take some time off and spend time with family and prepare for the upcoming year, and that’s helped to put a lot of things into perspective for me. 

On January 1st, I will turn 35, and I am determined to make 2019 the best year yet, personally and professionally. Continue reading »

Alina Wright 023 900x601 Alinas Retro pin up inspired boudoir session

She wanted some pin up inspired photos, and knew that my style was different than traditional pin-up photography, but we were able to really give her the feel she was looking for. She looked at pin up photo ideas to get inspiration for her hair and makeup, and I feel like we really nailed it.

Hannah Gray 008 900x601 Red Lipstick, Lace and Life Changing Revelations

Hannah had her first session with us back in early 2015 when our boudoir studio was located in Rockland, Maine. I knew as soon as I received the referral from our mutual friend that she was going to be an amazing woman to work with, and  in the almost 4 years since since that happened, we have also become good friends and I am so thankful to have her in my life. 

She recently came to the studio, which is now located in Brooks, Maine, and had her third session with us. I swear, each session she has is like she is a whole different person than the one who came before.
