I discovered Boudoir Photography about 6 months after I decided to pursue photography as a career. Even though I had been a passionate hobbyist for 20-something years, I never actually heard of boudoir photography until my best friend started talking to me about it. Shortly thereafter, she flew me to Florida and I shot my very first boudoir photo session.

I instantly fell in love with boudoir photography because I loved that I can show anyone who walked in front of my camera a side of themselves they either never knew existed, or had long forgotten. I can help people see past curves and stretch marks and I show them that they really CAN love pictures of themselves.

One of my most emotional and memorable shoots was Ms. J. She booked a session with me and I could immediately sense her nerves. I could immediately sense her insecurities.

On the day of Ms.J’s session, she was a ball of nerves. As soon as she sat down for hair and make-up, she started tearing up! She said she was just so nervous and so afraid that she wasn’t going to like herself.
