C’s Boudoir Photo Shoot

I have been looking forward to this boudoir photo shoot for a while. When C contacted me a few weeks ago, she asked if I worked with a makeup artist and hair stylist. I told her yes and she booked the shoot immediately! Normally people have a few more questions to ask me before they book their shoot, but C knew exactly what she wanted! The stylists I wanted to work with were unavailable so I scrambled a bit to find one. I didn’t know it would be so difficult to find some one else until I found myself looking! After a couple of days of biting my nails, I came across Janet Mednick’s website, On Site Beauty, and gave her a call. She called me back right away and was available for the shoot. Hooray! Janet was great to work with – very professional and helpful! She has many, many years of experience doing hair and makeup for weddings, photo shoots, film, stage – you name it! Here is Janet in action (from her

When C arrived she was a little frazzled because she spent the previous 10 minutes knocking on the wrong door, and she didn’t have my number on her! She did eventually find it so we cranked up the music and got to work making her even more beautiful and setting everything up for her. She brought some wine to help ease her nerves, and I must say it helped! ;) My fabulous friend, Joe Berry, was also there as an assistant. He. Is. Fabulous! 

In the first few shots I could tell she was a little uncomfortable, but after looking through her proofs and seeing the progression of her photo shoot, I noticed when she was able to relax, and that is when her photos really became extraordinary. Don’t get me wrong, they were all beautiful. But there’s just something special about the latter portion of her shoot!

Janet grabbed a rose from a bush outside and C immediately got to work using it as a prop! This particular series of shots was really nice:
