Simply gorgeous. E turns on the heat for her boudoir session. You know what they say. You only live once.

Hair + make up by the always amazing, Ellie Vixie.

I’m so excited to share with you my first couples boudoir session. M+A look amazing in these photos! I wanted this session to have a fashion/editorial feel so we shot in the most amazing condo not too far from UT campus. Erica Gray provided the perfect hair and make up to bring this vision to life. She’s one of my favorite make up artists in town. M+A were so great in front of the camera. It was great to work with two people willing to be so vulnerable and real with one another. You can really feel their passion and love for one another!

When Crystal with Chez Wedd contacted me about featuring one of my photos on her blog, showcasing bridal sessions at the Lustre Pearl, a local favorite bar, I decided to revisit some of Heather’s photos. I’ve posted a couple of her photos on my blog in the past but never really gave the session the full display. There were so many amazing photo’s from Heather’s rock the dress bridal session that it was almost impossible to narrow down my favorites. Well here they are and I’m still so in love with these photos. This is still one of my favorite photo shoots to date and looking at them makes me want to get out and do more creative shoots like this one. It takes a wiling subject, a professional hair + make up artist, the right styling plus fabulous/interesting clothes and locations. The ever amazing Ellie Vixie performed her magic on the already beautiful Heather. We went old Hollywood glam for the first part of the session showing off Heather’s beauty and then went a little rock-n-roll for the second part of the session. I wanted Heather to look a little edgier and I dare say gritty yet still beautiful. Ellie translated the look beautifully. And let me tell you, Heather rocked the heck out of her dress! I would love to photograph a wedding at the Lustre Pearl. I think it would make the perfect venue for a smaller, more intimate wedding. My fingers are crossed that it will happen one day soon!!
