Tina contacted our studio several months in advance for a boudoir shoot. I’m really amazed how prepared she was for this. She knew the look she wanted, the hotel to book, the outfits to wear… she even had the playlist of music she wanted to play ready on her laptop! All this got me so pumped for the shoot.

We started off at a park very close to the hotel, for some quick vintage photos of her and her dog Marshall.

Then we headed back to the hotel. Music was playing, a shot of brandy was sitting on the desk, clothes ready to wear… Tina could very well be one of my favorite clients ever!

I love me some of that tub action!

It took a while for her to get into the groove but once she did, I think for a while there she forgot someone was photographing her :)

When I saw this part of the room, I thought I better get out and grab my strobes from the car!

Um, hello hot momma!

And my favorite for last…

Tina, I had such a fabulous time hanging out with you! Thank you for your trust! Glad you brought a friend with you… Trina did a fabulous job helping out!

I’ve been aching to post this session, but the flu got to me and I had to stay in bed and away from my desk for 2 days straight. I’m finally coherent enough to put this together! Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely Rachel Amara at the Mission Inn. Together with 4 of my fabulous friends in the industry, we headed out to the historic hotel in Riverside for an awesome Boudoir Session.
