Wood Nymph

Who knew wood nymphs came in plus size? (Hint: I did!). Thanks to the wonderful ICU Photography for this set. It was really fun putting the costume together (by which I mean burning my fingers while hot gluing things to other things).

Loving Yourself

It's Valentine's Day. I have to admit, I never really got what the big deal about this day was. I get the whole 'celebrating your love' thing, but I always thought that if you do that every other day, then what makes Valentine's special? Not to mention, it's created an obsession with not being single on this day. What's so bad about being single? A lot of it has to do with the fact that we often judge our worth by whether or not someone else finds us attractive. I take issue with that. So how about this Valentine's day you make it all about yourself ? After all, it doesn't matter how long term you think a relationship is, you'll always have yourself- why not learn to love that person? After all, a lifetime with someone you dislike or even hate is downright miserable. And yes, I have photos for you, but I wanted to make a point to say that you'll always be loved if you love yourself.

Boudoir Highlights rewind

So I know it's been a bit since I've gone on a shoot due to the cold weather and having to reschedule around the holidays and ice and snow, so I thought i'd post highlights from a Boudoir shoot that I did with Christopher Goette a bit before I started this blog, around September.  I think the lighting is brilliant and I think the photos have a great feel to them- softer than most boudoir shoots I've been to so far. If you'd like to see more from this shoot check out my flickr (must be logged in to see this shoot).
