The Beginnings of a Dream | Springfield Boudoir Photography
There is always a beginning. A beginning where hope is high and dreams are huge. But once you are finished dreaming of all of the things, you either buckle down and keep pushing or you give up. One is easier than the other. One takes a lot more than dreams and hopes. It takes blood, sweat and tears -a lot of all of those. And this story is very much like that. I have done photography for years. I have wanted to be a full-time photographer for almost as long as I can remember, besides an author (more about that later). Each year, I have pushed myself. I have pushed…

Steva | Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photographer
I was looking through my old drafts of blog posts.... and I stumbled upon a ton of the days of LIVE shoots in my photography groups back in 2020. It's hard to believe how long it has been since I watched them and captured the amazingness. I swear I got back to a full-time gig in Sept 2020 and it really messed of my days of the week. I don't think I did another blog post until probably last week or the week before. This set was so dreamy and my favorite color so I couldn't just let it be deleted with the rest of the LIVE Shoots.... Anyways, here…

Stripping Down Yourself | Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photographer
One of the hardest parts about being a photographer is stripping down yourself for everyone to know more about you. You may ask why? Well if you aren't someone who shares everything with everyone, it is hard to be open. Yes, I could be a photographer that doesn't talk about themselves. But for boudoir, that would be the worst. I mean, stripping down to your lingerie and in some cases down to being nude in front of another person. If you didn't feel comfortable with the photographer, how would you be able to get amazing images that you love?! I want you as a client, a friend, etc. to be…

Satin Sheets |Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photographer
There is just something so sensual about white sheets and a woman's body. I find myself drawn to those images when we are doing the final reveal everytime. They are so amazing. In 2021 I purchased a satin white sheet set and knew that the Nothing but the Sheets minis needed them for at least one set! Now I have the crazy urge to buy like 4 more sets so we can do a mini with nothing but satin sheets -- white, blue, black, green, blue. There are so many colors. But this white set was everything I had been dreaming of for a session with White Sheets. There is…

That’s So 70s |Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photographer
One of the places that I tend to grab a lot of ideas from Pinterest. Sometimes its just an image that gets stuck in my head that I can't get out or a quote that screams at me and refuses to go away. The simple fact is i saw an idea in my head and I really couldn't get it out of my head. Looking through Pinterest I tried to find more of what I was obsessing about but no luck. So I gathered a few images of records, velvet and amazingness... and grabbed one of my friends. Since I didn't really have an image to give her I told…

Editorial: Inspiration Wedding | Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photography
A few years ago, I second shot at a wedding. (2020 really messed up my timeline of life) While I was at the wedding, I saw this amazing lady as a best man in a suit. It was my first wedding where the woman as the best man was not wearing a dress. It made my feminist heart happy and then my photographer brain jump to shoot the concept!
