~Shivering Ivy~

Whew!! At last, I had another great photo shoot…This time I had the opportunity to meet little Ivy with her mommy Ashley and daddy Chuck. The weather was nice, but COLD. Poor little Ivy ended up with a red nose and shivering lip. She had a great time, though! Typical of a 16 month old to be a real busy body…sometimes I miss those days…(sometimes!) We started off at Southern Creations… I just love that place. Thanks Cindy! Ivy had the biggest blue eyes and sweet smile…she was a doll. Ashley had her decked out in some really pretty colors!  We headed down to the torn down building where she found some crumbled brick to play with and a few swings in between mommy & daddy that had her laughing! It was wrapped up pretty quick, because she had really started shivering… What a fun time we had and looking forward to getting together again when the weather warms up. Here is a sneak peek, Ashley.  Thanks!

~Give me an inch~

And I will take a mile! A little warmth in the air, some blue skies certainly gave me a chance to get a taste of what I do best… Thanks to my husband, Nevada & Montana. (Dakota was saved by his weekend trip!) I bought this green ladder back chair at Antique Alley before the holidays and I have been anxious to use it. Oh and for some crazy reason, I suddenly got a thing for Sock Monkeys! (thanks Monica & Kyla) I could have taken tons more… but they wouldnt have it. Especially Montana…he was so not impressed with the stupid sock monkey.

COME ON SPRING!!! I am ready for you!

They are great models!!

~BadaBingBadaBoom!~

Girls just want to have fun! And we did just that, last night…what an imagination us girlie girls can have! Buffie and her sister Kristy met me and Courtney in Rayville last night for a couple of hours of playing dress up. We had 3 suitcases full of feathers, jewelry, shoes, clothes & props…the possibilities were endless. Buffie had the whole “pin-up” girl look from the hair & makeup to her feathery lashes and red nails! Time flies when you are having fun…what we thought would be only an hour turned into 2 hours before we even knew it…We all laughed, nipped, tucked, fluffed, pushed, stuffed, covered, stripped, laughed and fluffed some more! It was so much fun and really looking forward to lots more girlie girl time…

 

For those of you still thinking about taking the plunge, we still have time available! Take a little peek at what we did with Buffie and get your ideas pumping…I promise you will LOVE it! Oh, and just to show you how much we would love for you to take advantage of this opportunity to be a star…our Boudoir session will only be $75.00!! Even for those of you that booked at $100.00. So, what are you waiting for?

~What are you waiting for?~

 

 

Ok girls…you have thought about it long enough and time is going to be running out if you don’t act soon! This is not about how you look posing half naked..It’s not about how you need to lose that extra 20 pounds or even about getting some color on that skin of yours. Who says you even have to take your clothes off? Someone just mentions “boudoir” and you immediately think nude!! Come on, personally I think a woman looks sexier covered up…its all about how you feel about yourself. It’s about confidence, your smile, a silhouette, your hair falling on your shoulder…the back of your neck…heck, even your FEET! Get yourself a pedicure some really fabulous shoes and let your hair down….

Ok…so I am wondering who gets more out of professional erotic photos– the men who receive them as a gift or the women who give it to their man? When a woman who maybe has some body issues gets to see herself as an erotic being, I’d imagine that gives her a new sense of confidence; in fact, some boudoir photographers say it does exactly that.

Sags, wrinkles, bags, cellulite- they can’t compete with lingerie, soft lighting, the right angle and perfect position with a come hither look. It’s a nice fantasy that I can assure you will be pleased with… (so will he!)

 

 

 

 

We still have some sessions available. Friday January 16th 6:30, Friday January 23rd 6:30 & 8:30, Friday January 30th 8:30

~Getting itchy~

Wow…already into the second week of January. Time just goes by way too fast these days….at least it seems that way the older we get, huh? This is probably the longest I have gone without any photo sessions…haven’t been out since before Christmas…while I am enjoying the break, I am really itching to get back out there. The weather has been so crappy though. But, I am going to enjoy a little free time while I can, because I am looking for some busy times ahead with Spring and baseball season just around the corner.  I am really excited about that!!

 

Several clients have taken advantage of the Holiday CD on sale for $25.00, so if you haven’t taken advantage yet…there is still time. This is a great way to get the prints you want, when you want them, share them with friends and family or even upload them to your myspace, facebook, blog etc. Not to mention, you will have them in high resolution to keep forever! Also, I have already scheduled a few sessions for the Diva Within, so contact me about your appointment soon!

 

I am on a roll here with the updates!! Check out the wedding pricing that I have posted on my website TwoPeazPhoto. With weddings for spring and summer being planned, this will give you a starting point on what I have to offer.

 

Ok…enough with the blah blah blah…. Here are some photos that I took of the little ones while killing some time on our way to a holiday photo session. They tagged along with me that day and enjoyed “practicing” for me! God love my kids….with photography as my main hobby currently, they tend to get used to mama snapping the camera every time they turn around. They are all good sports about it…Even Dakota and Robert.

 

Nevada and Montana in some vacant buildings that we soon found out was home to homeless folks…we were even offered some food!

~Oooh La La!~

Because Every Woman Deserves to feel Sexy…

 

That should be every woman’s mantra! We are entitled to feel sexy, every day! However, life interrupts us and often times we lose sight of how gorgeous we are. We are bombarded daily with images of what beauty is suppose to be and when we feel like we don’t compare then we must not be beautiful. WRONG! We are all beautiful and sexy. Sometimes we just need a little help rediscovering it!

All images are kept in strict confidence and no images will be shown without written permission.   

 

Q&A

What is Boudoir Photography?

Boudoir Photography is a tasteful, classic, beautiful, sexy way for the modern woman to appreciate herself and her body.  Often these images are given as a gift to a significant other, but the gift you give yourself may be even more  valuable.

Do I have to undress and/or wear revealing clothes?

Absolutely NOT… Being sexy does not mean you have to be nude and/or dressed slutty. Being sexy means you being you in whatever makes you FEEL sexy. Or whatever you think he would love to see you in…for example: that cute little tank top and pj bottoms that you think is really cute…or his business shirt and tie with some really cute jeans…maybe its your wedding dress and veil that has been boxed up for a few years.. And it doesnt even have to be full body shots…. waist and/or neck up can be really glamorous to! 

Who are these images for?

They are for the bride who wants to give her groom the most unbelieveable gift. They are for the wife and mother of 3 whose husband could use a reminder he married the sexiest woman on the planet. They are for the woman who wants to feel like a supermodel. They are for EVERY woman!

 

My Policy:

My Policy on Boudoir Images is no full nudity. I will never ask you to pose nude. I work with implied nudity only which means you are covered with either your clothing, your hands, or an object.  I view any nudes as extremely private in nature and will be between you and whomever you wish to share them with.

 

I’m interested…What’s Next?

If you are interested in booking a boudoir session please contact me and I will send you my Boudoir Information Packet. This contains all the information you will need for your upcoming boudoir session.

 

Where is the session?

Typically I am an on-location photographer. However, for Boudoir, I have arrangements for a studio setting located in Rayville, LA that will be very private.

Will I be pushed into buying things I don’t want?
Absolutely not, I never push anything on any client of mine. I’ll show you what I offer and then the choice is yours.

 

But I don’t know how to pose!
Don’t worry, we will guide you through the poses and make sure you look fabulous in them all.

 

What if I’m not happy with my weight or shape? Should I wait?
No, you don’t need to wait at all. I’m able to ensure gorgeous images with a size 8 body or a size 20 body using clever lighting and various photographic techniques that will flatter your shape. Everyone has their own unique beauty, and that’s what I will bring out in these shoots. I also retouch with softening tools & enhancements using paint shop programs. However, I will NOT alter your photos- They will be “enhanced” in a glamorous style.

How do I know he’ll like them?
Trust me, he’ll like them. Why wouldn’t he like his own private collection of photos of you looking sexy, classy and confident. He will love them! He is a man, trust me…if he enjoys a little sexy picture once in a while, shouldn’t it be YOU?

 

So what’s all this nonsense about, you ask?? Hummm, I have peeked your interest…maybe?

~My New Pricing~

Yes my friends, its that time. I have been pretty steady with TwoPeazPhotography for almost 3 months and I have learned lots along the way. While I want to continue making this part time career of mine affordable to everyone interested, I have to consider all the time and effort put into offering you the best possible product of what is considered the most important part of capturing and preserving your memories. Dont worry, I am not going to send you to the bank. I am still trying to work out the best selection of sessions for each category that I am asked to shoot. I will be changing up some of the session selections and what comes in the package that you pay me for. I have started printing collages as requested by some of my best clients and will be adding more print packages for your selection. Keep in mind that I am still learning and since I strongly believe that “the customer is always right”, I will continue to do what I can to accomadate your needs. Please do not hesitate to contact me via internet and/or phone if you have any special requests and/or suggestions that I may not have thought of. As always, I am up for just about anything!

Another important point here that I would like to make is that while I enjoy keeping this blog current with my goings on and sneak peeks of my photo sessions…. I would like to get a little bit of feed back, comments, a hello….just a little something to know that you were here. I would like to think that I have a couple people out there that check in on a regular basis. Go ahead, leave me a comment… let me know I am not just babbling here to myself!! Yes, Mickey… I know you are here and continue to root me on.. and I gotta love ya for that! mmmuuahh!

~Happy New Year!~

A time to start fresh…reflect on the past year…make this year a better one, make resolutions that you can keep, don’t make any and try to make better choices this time around, forgive those that make your life miserable and move on with or without them.

As an effort to make this easier for you to keep some memories and a special thanks to those that ordered from their holiday sessions, I am offering your holiday photos on CD with copyright release for $25.00. You will be free to use your CD as you wish, emailing pics to your friends and family, adding your pics to your myspace, facebook, etc., having your own prints made or just what ever.
