We will provide snacks and drinks for you to enjoy….. use this time to take a load off in our dim & quiet sitting area….take a nap if you want to. We have a closed private “cozy” room just for you! Feel free and comfortable to breastfeed your baby in a private, quiet room. Your baby will be in good hands

$125.00

We have the experience to highlight all your best features, with post-production using photo-retouching techniques. (Trust us when we say that many of the world’s most famous models do not look anything like their photographs. Thank you, Photoshop!) In addition to what you bring to the session, we will have on hand a variety of sensuous accessories available for you to select from.
We will make you feel wonderful every time you look at your pictures. The portrait will remind you, and your significant other or life partner, for years to come just how beautiful you really are. We can see this and we draw it out of you. Your portrait becomes a tribute to you, a sexy and sensuous woman.
We are entitled to feel sexy, every day! That should be every woman’s mantra! However, life interrupts us & 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!
Ok girls…you have thought about it long enough! 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….
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!)

All images are kept in strict confidence and no images will be shown without written permission. now it can be you looking back from a sexy picture. Boudoir photography will help you discover that secret seductress in you.

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 & pj bottoms that you think is really cute..or his business shirt & tie w/some really cute jeans…maybe its your wedding dress & 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!

My Policy:
My Policy on Boudoir Images is implied nudity only which means you are covered w/either your clothing, your hands, or an object. I will never ask you to pose nude, unless YOU ask specifically.  I view any nudes as extremely private in nature & will be between you and whomever you wish to share them with.

But I don’t know how to pose!
Don’t worry, we will guide you through the poses & make sure you look fabulous in them all. But be sure you come in knowing what you want & have some ideas!
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 at ANY size using clever lighting & 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 w/softening tools & enhancements. However, I will NOT alter your photos- They will be “enhanced” in a glamorous style.
Can I bring someone with me?
Bring a friend w/you to the photo session. If a romantic photographer refuses this request, check a little closer before using her. This is a safety precaution that every woman should follow.
We have no problem w/a friend or family member coming with you. All we ask is that they can sit in with you ONLY if you want them to.  Boudoir photography is not a spectator sport. OK, so pretty much any woman is a great candidate for boudoir photography session. The only quality you need to have is well, to actually be a woman.
How To Prepare
We want you to feel and look your best on the day of the photo shoot. So here are a few helpful hints.
*Make sure your clothes are ironed & packed, or at least ready to go, the night before your session. If your outfits are not ironed, it takes time away from the shoot. Note, too, that we do NOT iron.
*Take care of any waxing/shaving in the sensitive areas (such as bikini line, lip & face)
* Check your mani & pedi, they do show up in close ups! Come on girls.. get those feet pampered! Nothing uglier then nasty looking feet and toes.
*Practice, practice, practice….yes, in front of the mirror
*Research- That’s right.. go online & check out some ideas for what you are looking for. Print some off & bring them with you. Bring some magazines, books, ads.. anything to give us an idea of what you want. You can also flip through a Victoria Secret catalogs to study poses. Bring your favorite pages w/you to show us what you like the most. PLEASE bring in some ideas of your own. You want to do this.. surely you have something in mind. We do help guide you thru poses appropriate for you, but give us something to work with.
*Nails: French manicured to natural. Something neutral to match w/anything!
*Skin: Groom eyebrows, & clean any dead skin off your face. Please remove any unwanted hair off the face. Brush & floss your teeth, too.
*Wear makeup! We do not offer make-up application, although we may offer suggestions and/or help w/touch ups. PLEASE, keep in mind that make-up for this session needs to be a little more dramatic than usual. Maybe a little darker, some bold lip stick, false eyelashes, glam it up! While you want this session to reflect YOU, keep in mind that you shouldn’t be made to look like something that you are not, so don’t go overboard & don’t be afraid to try something different! BRING makeup for touch ups!
*Hair- wear a button up shirt so that you won’t disturb the makeup & hair when you begin to change for your boudoir session. We do NOT do hair. Although we may offer suggestions and/or help with touch ups…please come w/your hair done. Go treat yourself to a style with your beautician. Be flexible w/wearing it up and/or down… both ways can be really sexy & give some variety to your photos.
* Wear a clear deodorant instead of the white, powdery kind so that your clothes will stay the color they should be.
What To Bring
High boots, negligee, your wedding veil, garter, animal prints, satin, lace, furs & any other props that are fun…..your imagination is the limit! Bring lots of options & we will help you choose the best. (we have lots of boas, pearls, gloves, hats, accessories already, but don’t rely on just what we have)1. Boy Shorts/Bra & Panties Set
2. Stilettos
3. Button down shirt
4. Corset
5. Jewelry
6. Makeup (for touch ups!)
7. Babydoll outfit
8. Thigh highs (fish nets & pantyhose for a smoother look- keep in mind that the control top may show)
9. Props
10. Hat & Tie
11. Feather Boas
12. Lingerie: Buy lingerie to turn him on! Don’t use old stuff—you are trying to entice your partner! Be sexy!
13. Jewelry: Bring a selection from which to choose. Above all, if your significant other has given you any pieces, bring them.
14. Shoes: High heels, strappy shoes, boots bring them all!
15. Look for something cute and cheap at Ross’s, Cato’s or Burkes Outlet!
Bring anything that you can think of.. we may use it, we may not.. but at least you will have choices! Pack a suitcase, buy some new stuff, pull out your stuff you have never worn, borrow something from a friend.
A glamour photographer can do ALOT to help you look GLAMOROUS but these are must-dos in order for you to help the photographer.

Photography Class- These are pretty basic and geared toward showing you how to use your camera. I will teach you the basics of ISO, Aperture & Shutter speed. Manual settings are very important when it comes to making your “snapshots” even better! Some point and shoot cameras- (the ones that have a stable lens that does not come off) have automatic settings that you can manually change and some even have more manual settings that can be confusing. Learning how to use your camera and the important process of how lighting & shutter speed can determine how clear, crisp and awesome your photos can be! Blurry pictures? Not real vivid and crisp? Too dark? Too bright??? , Lets learn how to fix it!

1st Class- $75.00

2nd Class- $25.00

Corel Paintshop Pro/Adobe Photoshop- Do you have these programs and have no clue how to use them or where to even start?? Reading books and trying to watch a tutorial can be confusing and sometimes they do not explain very clear what to do and how to do it. Tools, tubes, brushes, transparent, actions WHAT??? I will introduce you to the basics, show you the tools for simple basic use, where they are and what they do. Hands on, watch me on the flat screen for easy visual, ask questions, take notes, try each step/tool out along with me! Need an intermediate class that goes a little bit further beyond the basics? I will have 2nd classes for Intermediate users for more in depth editing, creating, making collages, greeting cards etc.

For those that do not have Corel Paintshop Pro and interested in getting it, please message me at missy@twopeazphoto.com

1st Class- $100.00

2nd Class- $35.00

On Location Shoot Session- Have you participated in one or more of my classroom classes and ready to get out and shoot a session with me on location?? Maybe you have a good bit of experience already and you just want to come out and learn some tips and get hands on help with your camera?? Join me along with other pros and/or moms with cameras. (if you have already been in 1 class or shoot session, the fee is only $25)

1st time out- $75.00

2nd time out- $25.00

Questions???? Message me anytime- missy@twopeazphoto.com

Free mini session to be used within 3 months!

Ok… the entries are in and its time to vote!! I will have 1 previous client winner and 1 new client winner.

There are tons of different things out there online, free, downloadable, costly and everything in between. Some of these are just for fun, lots for enhancements, quick edits such as crop, red eye removal etc. More professional software can only be purchased and can be quite costly. There are many that are easily mastered but lots that take much time and practice to learn. Just like any other product out there, upgrades are constant…so the software you buy today will be new and improved 6 months down the road. I have found that the newer versions can be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but having to constantly upgrade and stay on top of it can be very expensive.

For me, the newer upgrades most of the time are not completely new, just quicker and easier ways of doing things via the older version. For example: it may take 4 steps to do something in Adobe CS3 but only 2 steps in the NEW Adobe CS5. So for me, upgrading often is just not a must. Of course, this is just my own opinion

There is a reason that I have decided to have classes on the basic to intermediate use of Corel PaintShop Pro and Adobe CS PhotoShop- it can be quite frustrating trying to read tutorials, books, watch videos and just plain learning it on your own. I have spent hours trying to master the simplest of steps only to find that trial and error was my best bet! I would have given anything to have had the opportunity to learn in a more relaxed, informal environment that didnt cost me an arm and a leg.

I have been asked- “Missy, why are you giving away your tips?” “Why have these classes for those trying to build the same business??” My answer is always the same… I can teach you how to use your camera… I can teach you how to use the tools on your software.. BUT I can’t teach you style. Everyone is different, everyone has their own style. You either have it or YOU DON’T. I can’t teach you how to run your business, I can’t build that client/photographer relationship for you. But, am I afraid of other photogs taking business away from me? No, I am not. Whether you learn from me or not, if you have what it takes, then you will take off with or without me. I believe that every photographer has something different to offer their clients and there are some clients that will stick with you no matter what… then there are some that like to try different styles. This will happen and has happened more than once for different reasons.

Here are just a few examples of what you can learn from some of my classes. There are hundreds of lessons that can be taught, so more than one class is highly suggested. I also encourage suggestions, ideas and thoughts on what YOU are looking for.

Previous session at the Pecan Orchard:

Ok so its contest time. I wanted to do something really different. Something easier and more user friendly. I LOVE giving away freebies… many of you know this! I also firmly believe on having at least 2 winners.  I do have rules for contestants, so if you do not understand them, please ask.

1- No winners from the last contest I had (new year’s)

2- Only one submission per person

3- NO DRAMA and/or over bugging people & NO posting on other obvious photographer’s page

4- You may post requests for votes on your own facebook page and links to my blog

5- No one has to “like” my facebook page- this is not a way to gain fans for me.

6- Submit your picture to me via email- missy@twopeazphoto.com

7- Include your name, where you are from and in subject line- “TwoPeaz Contest”

8- Photo CAN NOT be a professionally taken pic. Must be a snapshot of either yourself, your kids, pets, or other family member.

9- Photo MUST include some sort of sign, billboard, street sign, hand made sign held by you….just a sign that says anything.. BUT must NOT be photoshopped in the picture.. it has to be a SIGN.

10- yeah I know this is crazy, but I wanted it to be fun and different. All entries must be received by midnight of June 1st. Contest will not begin until all entries have been received.

ALL voting will take place on my Blog- There will be 2 winning category’s- 1- past client winner and 1- new client winner. Get creative and get your entry ready and send it in!!

Spending most of the morning getting her makeup perfect and hair just right…. because of you, she can go back and see all the painstakingly steps it took to get her “ready”. We all know what those “awkward looks” of getting hair and make-up done, so be careful to get the best shot/angle that you can… unposed & natural. Sometimes even just giving a heads up that you are going to snap a few will give her the chance to eliminate an “open mouth” look

Ok, so she spent hours looking, shopping, trying on and finally finding the PERFECT dress… YES, the dress! The one that has probably only been seen during fittings and hanging in that bag that it came in. Photographers- GET IT OUT and while she is finishing up hair & makeup- before too many people get there… Get some awesome shots of it hanging in some really cool spots, get the details of it. Be careful and be sure to have an assistant with you to help from getting it dirty, wrinkled or even worse, ruined! Dont worry, you are a professional and should not be faint of heart. Live on the edge and get those awesome memories for her. Afterall, she trusted (and paid dearly) YOU to do this

Geeze its getting really hot in here…. got the fans blowing right on the bride, the ac is down to 65 and she is still trying to keep from sweating! The bridal room is full of all those anxious to see her… in and out of the room. Sometimes there is barely any room left for anyone else. Its time to clear out all the stragglers and have mama and/or the bridal party help with that fun task of getting her in the dress….. all those zippers, buttons, laces on the corset.. WHEW!! Honestly, I (as the photographer) have more than once been in on that task! No, I am not complaining… I am a helper.. in many ways. A take over and jump in there when I see the need kind of person. I dont question it… I just do it. Anything to help make things go smoother on this wonderful day. No, the groom may not ever even care to see these details, but the bride and her mama…… what a special moment……………………..

Last thing ares the garters… ahhhh, not to mention a chance to just sit for a minute after all the pulling, tugging, squeezing into that custom fitted dress!

Well, there you have it….. only a mere drop in the bucket for a tidbit on wedding photography. Any questions for those of you thinking of trying your hand on a wedding request? Maybe you have already tried once or twice and still not so sure about what to do, how to do it…. what if’s? Leave a question for me in the comment section and I will answer them there and I encourage any one else that wants to leave their 2 cents! Afterall, this is all about learning….. learning from each other and making more meaningful memories for our clients
