Miss K’s Boudoir

Miss K has the best shoes. Tall black heels, purple pumps, cowboy boots – what else could you ask for? Apparently she’s got quite the collection at home. I envy her ability to walk in these heels (I look like a robot.)

Happy Friday!

Miss W’s Boudoir

I always get a tad nervous anytime I blog about boudoir. I spend hours analyzing whether something is to risque to be posted. Those of you who have done a session with me know I don’t do much that could really be considered risque, but I’m super paranoid anyway. The last thing I want is for the person in the photo to feel uncomfortable, or someone visiting my blog to get the wrong idea.

This shot with the cowboy hat makes me nervous. It’s a great shot, and not really that revealing (imagine she’s wearing a bikini – not too different.) So I opted to post it. I hope I’m not offending anyone’s delicate sensibilities :)

Thank you to Miss W for letting me share some of her photos!

Miss M’s Boudoir

Sexy Little Bride indeed. Just a few shots from Miss M’s session last weekend. Keeping it under wraps until her groom to be gets to see.

More boudoir sessions to follow!

Miss S’s Boudoir

How beautiful are fake eyelashes?

I know they are an enormous pain to wear (and make you feel like Betty Boop or something), but they photograph amazingly. Anyone doing boudoir should absolutely splurge for them.

Miss S’s friends chipped in to give her a boudoir shoot as a gift before her wedding. What nice friends :) Just a couple from her shoot, keeping her identity under wraps just in case. I hope her wedding goes off without a hitch next month!

Mrs. M’s Boudoir

Mrs. M was working the sexy secretary angle. I think she nailed it.

It took a lot of scheduling for us to make this shoot happen, and I’m so glad we finally got it together. Many thanks to Mrs. M for letting me post some photos from her shoot at The Magnolia Hotel. She did an amazing job and we had a fantastic time. I hope the gift for her hubby goes over well!

Miss F’s Boudoir

The Magnolia Hotel is a fantastic setting for a boudoir shoot. Huge windows, beautiful light, simple decor, and a free happy hour downstairs when you are finished. Nice :)

Here are a few shots from last weekend’s shoot. She asked that I not post any with her face, which I completely respect and honor all the time. I loved all the shots we did with her cathedral length veil. I always love shooting with long veils. So pretty!

Happy Wednesday!

Miss B’s Boudoir

I suppose now she’s actually a Mrs. :)

We did Miss B’s boudoir shoot just four days before her wedding as a surprise for her groom to be. She was leaving the very next day to meet him on the East coast where the wedding was held last weekend. I’m amazed she had time to fit in this shoot so close to the big day! Many thanks to her for allowing me to share just a few images. I hope the wedding went spectacularly, and that the gift was a hit :)

Mrs. G’s Boudoir

tracy — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 15:00:20 +0000

I’ve received a lot of praise lately for my boudoir style being “classy.” Apparently, some photographers out there take boudoir to a level just beyond classy (with a few going well beyond the line.) I’m proud to know that people have noticed the level of professionalism I bring to my boudoir work. I strive to always make my client feel comfortable and respected, and above all, I respect their right not to have their images plastered all over the internet. It may keep my online portfolio small, but it keeps my clients feeling comfortable and happy. Win.

That respect for my client’s wishes is why only one image from Mrs. G’s boudoir session in St. Louis will end up on the blog. She asked that I not post any images with her face. Seeing as I think having your face in each of the images is very important (you are not just a collection of body parts), I don’t take many that don’t include some sort of identifying element. But I did think this shot with the window looked kinda cool.

If you’re looking for some classy boudoir shots yourself, give me a call. Have a great weekend!

Bachelorette Boudoir Parties

Looking for a unique and fun activity for the day of your Bachelorette Party? How about a boudoir party?

A friend of mine actually suggested this idea, and I have to say it’s brilliant. Here’s how it can work. The day of your bachelorette party we’ll rent a hotel in downtown Denver. One at a time, you and each of your friends can come by to get their hair and makeup professionally done and do an hour long boudoir shoot with me. (Don’t worry, you won’t be shooting together, just meeting up afterwards!)

Once your shoots are over, you’ll all look fantastic and feel incredibly sexy. Take that energy out for a night on the town – and you can even stay in the hotel we rent for the night if you want! Everyone will end up with amazing shots to take home to their boyfriends/fiancees/husbands, and you’ll have a fantastic gift to give your hubby-to-be before the wedding.

I give discounts for Boudoir Parties, so contact me if you’re interested and want more information!
