TA DA!!!!

That's right! Beautiful, sunny, luxurious MIAMI!!!!!

My brother and his fiancé are getting married in May in Sonoma Valley, CA (pics to come from that awesome time coming in 2014!!)

But, before they do, they need a photographer to take their engagement photos, and who did they ask to fill this big responsibility??? Yours truly.

I am BEYOND excited to take the pictures for them and especially when I'll have such a great backdrop to work with!

I've ordered a reflector - one of those 5-in-1 ones that looks like this:

 

 

It'll be my first time using one of these, but I think it'll make a HUGE difference in my shots, especially the outdoor ones. I'm still learning about proper lighting and exposure (and there is A LOT to learn!) but I can't wait to take this puppy out and start practicing with it!

I want these photos to be amazing for them, and I'm going to try my hardest to make sure I don't let them down.

So, hopefully, I'll come back with some awesome shots!! Be sure to check back soon to take a look, as I'll be putting the best ones on here for your enjoyment :)

Happy Snapping!

Miss S

As I mentioned in my previous post, my boudoir photoshoot with Miss S yesterday was amazing! She looked absolutely beautiful! We had so much fun, and I got some great shots of her! 

Here is a sample of some of the pics we took:

Happy snapping!

Success!!

My boudoir photoshoot with Miss S was an absolute success!!! She was so easy to work with and photograph, and the pictures turned out amazing!!!! I have some minor editing to do, but then pics will be up soon!! :)

I was so excited during our shoot, I couldn't even contain it!! I LOVE what I do!

Photo Shoot Today!

My good friend Miss S has agreed to let me come practice taking pics of her today!! I'm so excited! This is how I know this is the career for me.... I get giddy like a little girl when I get to do it! :D 

Miss S has a cat and would like me to take pictures of her and the cat. I'm trying to convince her to let me practice taking some boudoir pics of her, but I think she's a little shy about it. We'll see... I would love the practice. 

Just for fun, here are some boudoir photographers in Nashville whose work I have fallen in love with recently.... I aspire to be this awesome!

Chris and Adrienne Scott - Flaunt

Matt Andrews - Boudoir a la Mode - I love the bachelorette party idea that he offers!

Jamie Pfister - Adore Boudoir - This duo sister team offers couple boudoir sessions too! Love that!

I'll be back later to hopefully post some pics of Miss S from our shoot this afternoon, if she gives me permission to do so! Until then, happy snapping! 

Just Some Pics

Here are some recent shots I took playing with a rose, some jewelry and the lights in my living room... I love setting up scenes to photograph! I've been playing around a little bit with the white balance on my camera to see how the color changes according to the white balance setting.

New Blog!

My first post of my brand new photography blog!! I am hoping to get my career started as a photographer, so I can say I "get to go to work" everyday. I love taking pictures. This is my passion and I am ready to follow it! Come back again to check out new stuff that I've done!
