LBD

Are you thinking of what outfits you want to bring? Want to have some images you can show your friends and your mother? Bring your LBD (little black dress) to your boudoir photoshoot.
Elegant pictures in your favorite cocktail dress will add a lot of variety to your pictures. It is also a nice way to show off your favorite jewelry, especially if it's something he gave you.

Cupcakes

I have to admit... I am not really a cupcake person. I don't really "get" the concept. I mean cupcakes are messy, wouldn't you rather have a plate and a fork? A slice of cake tastes the same right? Oh and I don't like vanilla either, or so I thought.

The Chocolate changed all that for me. Ange, from The Chocolate, brought in a sampler box of cupcakes to me and my coworkers. I opened the box and offered one to everyone, there were four flavors. I ended up with the last one, vanilla, sigh, oh well, that's what I get for being gracious. Then I tasted it. Seriously, the best dessert on the planet. So I have been talking about these cupcakes non stop for weeks. I even picked some up for my family at the farmer's Market at Thanksgiving Point.

For my birthday my friends ordered boxes of cupcakes from The Chocolate, all vanilla save a few yummy carmel and chocolate ones. And finally everyone could see what I was talking about!!!

It's unanimous, The Chocolate makes the best cupcakes on the planet!

So if you are looking for a really awesome dessert for your wedding try these delicious cupcakes. Try displaying them on a tall tiered cupcake tree from Diamond Rental or have them boxed up as favors for your guests to take home... or do both, and invite me!

More Pictures and Some Boudoir Posing Tips

I am on a roll posting pictures. And the good news is that I have more, so stay tuned.


This was from a boudoir shoot for a bride. She brought lots of lingerie and did two hair and makeup looks. We had so much fun.

She brought her wedding shoes. Bringing something special you will wear on your wedding or something of his really makes the pictures more personal.Posing trick: When laying on your tummy bring the knee on your front leg forward a bit. It is super flattering and creates gorgeous curves.

This is one of my all time favorite boudoir poses. It's way sexy and shows off your hair and eyes.

Close ups can add a lot of interest and variety to your album.

(as always, I don't show pictures without a signed model release.)

As promised...

utah boudoir photography

Oh no, I have turned into one of those photographers that never updates her blog with new pictures!!! Not for lack of gorgeous pictures to share, that's for sure.
I want to thank the ladies that are so generous to share their private pictures.

This is from a shoot where her lucky man received an album for their anniversary.

Client Thank You

I have been super busy and I promise to get more pictures up soon. I have had some GORGEOUS clients this summer that have been gracious enough to let me share some of their images. So stay tuned....

And in the meantime I wanted to share a sweet thank you email I received recently:

Susie,
Thank you so much for this amazing experience. I can't believe how comfortable I actually was! I was a nervous wreck before getting there but I am so glad now that I booked a shoot for my husband. I had a lot of fun and have never felt more confident and sexy. I think it totally helped me feel so much more beautiful on my wedding day too. So it was a gift to both me and my husband.
I had a friend give the album to him after our ceremony and before the reception. I wish I would have either been there or had someone film it. I guess he was totally shocked! He later told me that he couldn't believe I would do something so amazing for him. He said he knew he married the sexiest woman ever already but that he really loved the album! Ahhh I am so lucky.
Anyway, thanks again for providing such a cool thing for women. I wish you so much success and I really can't wait to do another session. I have a feeling my husband will be all for it.
-K
