There are some weeks that come together in the oddest and most unique ways.. 

For this week, every client brought in something related to straps. Now, this could have been a strappy bra (as seen below), a set of straps to *ahem* use in the bedroom, a pair of ridiculously gorgeous and strappy heels that would have dominated on the red carpet (and also made my feet fall asleep)... or simple a motorcycle helmet that my client had to STRAP on. Obviously I was reaching for that last one. 

Regardless, I love it when a week's full of boudoir sessions comes together under one common theme. 

So, in the spirit of the straps: buckle-up, strap-up, whatever... and enjoy your weekend!!!

Call it a residual effect of having spent part of Thanksgiving in Seattle... but my recent boudoir photos have been quite moody. I've found myself a bit more attached the the darker shadows, grain, and grayness. In fact, after typing that out I realize that I *must* be influenced by the Seattle vibes (Google 'Seattle' weather' for clarity). I'm ok with that.

As the winter season approaches and the gray settles in I really look forward to shooting. Recently a past client came into the studio to let me experiment with a few different settings and poses in my new studio. I've loved working with her in the past and this time she brought me a little surprise. She was pregnant! Woot woot! Let's do some dark and emotionally sensual images because WHY NOT? Start that baby off with some attitude. Since she ALSO used to work around the music industry I feel like this photography session is only making her baby way cooler.
