Spring Fling Boudoir Marathon

February 10, 2009

Back in the fall I wanted to setup a Boudoir Marathon…well it involved a bit more organization and planning than I anticipated, and a bunch of people expressed interested in taking part after the holidays, so I put the idea on hold…until now.

Now I know Boudoir is still an unfamiliar term for many people, so let me try to explain what it is… to me its sexy, seductive photos done in a VERY tasteful manner. It is NOT nude photography… I like to leave things up to the imagination. Boudoir can really go in a few different directions… it can be anything from cute and fun to sexy and seductive depending on your personality and what you are comfortable with! Boudoir sessions are tons of fun! They are great if you want to do something out of character, or just want to feel extra glamorous for a day! They make great presents to yourself or for someone special in your life!

If this sounds like fun to you, then mark your calendars for Saturday, April 25th, because I will be hosting aSpring Fling Boudoir Marathon in a gorgeous hotel suite in Munich! I am SO excited because I know this will be a blast! Here are the details:

Up to 1 hr prep time with a professional make-up artist/ hair stylist
1 hour photo shoot in a suite of a 4 start hotel centrally located in Munich
Unlimited liquid courage (Sekt and Mimosas)
20-30 proofed images in a private gallery for 2 weeks
A top quality 5×5 (can be upgraded to 8×8) handcrafted album with 20 photos of your choice from you session (this alone is worth over 200€)
20% off of any other prints/products ordered

As this is mostly for portfolio building purposes, I am offering a VERY special price of 275€ if you are willing to sign a model release allowing me to use your photos on my website and to promote future Boudoir sessions.

There are only a few slots available, so email me as soon as possible if you’d like to take part or would like more information!

Sock Monkeys!!!!

December 8, 2008

Last week I received some handmade sock monkeys I had ordered from Jessica at Gus and Ollie and I really love them, so I wanted to share this info with my readers! Let me just say..they are SO cute!! Jessica does really great work… each monkey is unique, of excellant quality, and comes in its own little fabric baggie.. and the price is very reasonable too! These monkeys would make great gifts for people of all ages, and I can see myself buying more in the near future :)

I ordered Daryl, Maddison and Oscar…I’ll be keeping Daryl and giving Maddison and Oscar as gifts. I put them all to work yesterday as ‘models’ because the whether was so icky and I wanted to play with my new camera, so here are some fun pics of the gang :)

mollie: those are TOO cute!
