Updates

I have a couple little items of business. First, it's spring (yay) which means my busy season is approaching. My super talented husband shoots weddings and I'm his lovely (lol) assistant/second photographer. I still have lots of days available to shoot, but let's book your session soon, especially if you are a bride and you need your pictures back by a particular date.

Second, I just wanted to let all my clients know that The Dressing Room (the password protected portion of my site) has a handful of new pictures up. I have had some fun sessions and unfortunately I have a hard time finding the time to update pictures (and my blog) as often as I should.

And finally, I wanted to finish off this post by sharing a couple images from a recent session. If you are trying to decide between the different boudoir sessions I offer, I highly recommend doing two hair and makeup "looks". It adds so much variety to your session and gives you more images to choose from and more time for another outfit change.


Remember, I only share images if I receive written permission from my wonderful clients. And on that note, I just have to say that I get the neatest opportunity of meeting and shooting the most amazing women. I have made so many friends. I have also been able to share in the excitement of wedding preparations, been inspired by women whose brave husbands are serving in our military, and heard stories of true love by women celebrating anniversaries of all lengths. Every woman I shoot is unique and doing pictures for all different reasons, and I am lucky enough to be a part of it all. So, thank you!

Hair Has a Shape?

Please forgive me if you already knew this, but I thought it was really super cool. I was reading a very elementary level human body encyclopedia with my daughter the other day and I learned something interesting about hair. I always kinda wondered why some people have straight hair and some people have curly hair. I knew it was hereditary, but that's it.

Well, it turns out that it is determined by the shape of the hair shaft! If your hair is straight (like mine, actually make that "stick straight") then the hair shafts are round. If your hair is wavy (like I WISH mine were naturally) then the hair shaft is oval shaped. And curly hair is flat, which makes sense; it reminds me of curling ribbon.

I hope you found that nearly as interesting as I did. And if you want to enhance (or change) what mother nature gave you go visit my friends at Studio Enizio for a new style. They also carry the fabulous Kerastase products.
