Deb is getting married in early 2020 and wanted to do a boudoir session so she could gift her groom stunning portraits of herself to him… but she was so excited for him to see her images that she included him at the portrait reveal! This happens a lot—brides-to-be just cannot wait to give their soon-to-be husband their gift and usually end up giving the album when they receive it. I joke that many have tried to wait until wedding day, but most have failed! Deb, who is a fellow photographer, really had a great time at her session… and was floored when she saw her images. I cannot sing my praise loud enough. I went into this experience incredibly insecure. I am about 30lb overweight and definitely do not feel beautiful or sexy. Or at least I didn’t feel that way before Shannon showed me my pictures. All I can say is WOW! Shannon seriously knows her craft because she found my angles and worked them. I LOVE my images. I just keep looking at them over and over again. She made me look and feel so beautiful. If you are considering some glamorous pics DO IT! And use Shannon. You will not regret it. Think you need to be getting married to do a boudoir session? Nope! Because honestly, even if you were doing the session for your signifiant other, the session would end up being for you. (Women just think they need an excuse to do a session, so they often will say they are doing it for someone special.) So! Looks like fun, right? Well it is. Contact me today to schedule you phone consult so we can discuss how you want to be photographed. A big thank you to lead stylist, Nath, for helping Deb

“I had planned to wait until I had lost some weight [to do a boudoir session], but I booked [my session], and booked out a ways thinking that would help—it didn’t. I knew that in looking at the boudoir galleries my images would turn out. The entire session day was so much fun and it ended with a great dinner out with my husband with my hair and makeup all done.” Sarah Sarah has been married to her high school sweetheart for 22 years, they have three rescued Yorkies as fur babies, and love to travel to Vegas. Sarah in particular loves wine, so much so she requested to incorporate her favorite wine glass into her session… Take a moment and read over Sarah’s answers to my client interview, and then contact me today to schedule your consult so we can discuss what’s included with each pre-paid collection, the flow of the session, and what you can expect. I promise you, you’re in good hands with me! How long have you been wanting to do a boudoir session and what made you decide now was the time to do one? Maybe a year or so. I follow Shannon on Instagram and was at breakfast with my husband, pulled up Instagram for something and he saw me scroll by a pic—he asked what it was, I told him it was boudoir, and he told me to go for it. What made you decide Shannon Hemauer was the photographer to work with to do your boudoir session? She was local and I was not seeing others on social media like I did her. What was your favorite part out of the entire experience? The planning, the session, the reveal? Each part was different—and special—in its own way. Did you leave your session
