Marissa’s Boudoir Session

Lovely Marissa came to my studio last month to get some smoking hot boudoir portraits made as an anniversary surprise for her husband. Now that their anniversary date has come and gone, I’m clear to share a handful of them. These pictures are GORGEOUS! I’m going to go out on a limb here and say her husband was very pleasantly surprised with his anniversary gift. Wowsa!

K’s Boudoir Session in the Studio

I did these gorgeous, classic intimate portraits of K at my boudoir studio in Colorado Springs a couple of weeks ago. She did this photo shoot as a surprise birthday gift for her boyfriend, E. (Shhhh! Don’t spill!) I think K is such a stunner! When she first showed up for her portraits, like so many of my clients she was a little hesitant at the outset, but once we picked out the right outfits and started shooting, she relaxed and really got into it. As you can see, K is fabulous, fierce and photogenic! I love bringing out the hidden sexy vixen in my clients, it’s so much fun!

At the reveal a few days later, when K saw her how magnificent she looked in her photos, she was so happy! It was really an emotional moment for her. She told me that she never thought of herself as beautiful, but these pictures made her realize what we can all plainly see:Ā  she is truly dazzling. Her boyfriend is going to be so stoked when he gets his birthday present! Rawr!

Another Fun Pinup Shoot!

Beautiful, bodacious Miss. B is a returning client who loves to dress up as a pinup girl! This is our second photo shoot together, with another one planned in the spring. We did these pinup girl photos in my Colorado Springs studio at the end of January. Isn’t she fabulous? I love working with her! I’m sure you have lots of questions, so I’ll try and answer them for you. Other than the pink petticoat, these are her own clothes, but no, B doesn’t go around dressed as a sexy pinup girl on a daily basis (though I do know some women who do!). In fact, she’s a busy working mother of two and a committed Air Force wife. In her normal, non-photo-shoot life, B wears the same kinds of clothing that everyone else does — sweaters, jeans and flats, or comfy yoga pants when she’s not at work. Oh and she wears glasses, too, like so many of us, me included! That’s a “Bettie Page” wig from De Oro wigs; B owns several of them and this one is her latest acquisition. Her natural hair color is actually a medium brown, and it’s shorter than this, but I think she looks great in her fantasy Bettie Page persona!

Also, B wanted me to mention that she’s very much a body positive advocate. She’sĀ  worked hard to lose about 80 pounds in the last couple of years, but she loves herself at any size. (And it goes without saying that her husband positively worships her.) I really love her healthy attitude! B is one of my favorite clients and I can’t wait for our next photo shoot!

Marian’s Calendar Girl Portraits!

I love doing pinup photography! In fact it’s not just fun for me, it’s fun for my clients, too. It’s such a lark! I like to think of pinup photo shoots as a sort of elaborate, vintage-themed cosplay, much like steampunk. There’s something very feminine and sexy about vamping things up in a vintage kind of way. Men love it, trust me on that! Don’t quote me on this, but I suspect it has something to do with high heeled pumps and ruby red lips. šŸ˜‰

Most of my pinup photography clients don’t style themselves like this in their day to day lives; they do a pinup photo shoot to inhabit a sexy (but not too sexy) calendar girl persona for a few hours. Added bonus: these pictures are always a big hit with your significant other! And imagine having these sassy portraits to show your grandkids one day. What fun!

So check out these saucy snaps of Marian, who came to me for a pinup photo shoot a few days ago. She was transformed for an afternoon from a modern career woman to the epitome of the classic pinup dream girl of the silver screen, and wow! She looks like she could be in a 1950s movie opposite a hunk like James Dean, Rock Hudson or Marlon Brando! Hubba hubba! Sophia Loren, step aside, there’s a new starlet in town!

Marian and I did use the wardrobe at my studio for this portrait session, and the jewelry is from my own large collection of vintage baubles and accessories. I’ve been collecting them for years and I love using them in photo shoots.

Honestly, Marian is certainly gorgeous any day of the week, but I think she looks extra beautiful in these pictures. You go, girl! As Humphrey Bogart would have said, “Here’s looking at you, kid!”
