Happy Weekend everyone! I'm so excited to share a very special client feature with you today. For privacy reasons, I'm sure you understand why, we'll leave her name as Miss M.
It all started with an email…
For her husband's 40th birthday and anniversary gift, Miss M was looking for something different, something fun and with a whole lotta spice. What was she looking for? Gorgeous, sexy pictures that would show off her curves, presented in a little hardcover black book designed especially for her husband!
We met over lunch to plan out the session and to make sure that we were on the same page. We both agreed that some flirty lingerie paired with classy and elegant poses would just drive her husband wild. To complete her look, she decided to go with the make up artist and hair stylist team that I work with on most of my styled shoots. She wanted something that wasn't over the top but brought out her natural beauty. I suggested an indoor location with lots and lots of windows to surround her in natural light and add to the soft, romantic feel of the shoot. With the details worked out, we set a date and the countdown began.
On the day of the shoot, Miss M admitted to me that she was nervous and shy - who wouldn't be? We toasted to some glasses of mimosa, snacked on strawberries and popped in some girly power anthems. You know. The kind that gets you up and moving and singing out loud with your girlfriends - yeah you know what I'm talking about (but in case you don't, click play on the player above as you read the rest of this post!) Before long, Miss M was rocking the shoot, trying out different poses and flaunting all her cute outfits and accessories. Boudoir shoot success!
After the shoot, the photos were sent online to Miss M through a private gallery where she chose her favourites to go into the little black book. We played around with a few different designs, finally deciding on a clean, modern design with black backgrounds - one that screamed sexy. :)
And the verdict? Well, a few weeks later when I sent Miss M a follow up email to find out how everything turned out, this is what she wrote back:
"Vacation was good and [the mister] LOVED his gift!! He was surprised but he knew there was a photoshoot as he had seen emails…anyway, he loved it and went through the book at least 20 times when I gave it to him."
Looking through the book 20 times, too cute!
When I asked Miss M later if I could post her photos on my blog, she agreed and replied simply that she was very proud of the photos and in fact had showed them off to many of her chat group friends online already. Miss M, you should be proud, you looked beautiful and sexy and have a darn lucky husband! Thanks for letting me be a part of such a fun and fabulous day.
Thanks also to Sora Won and Jennifer Lo, my fab hair stylist and make up artist team!
