My Journey for Photos | Springfield Missouri Boudoir Photographer
My journey for photos has not always been an easy one. And that is honestly the reason why I want to be a full-time boudoir photographer. I have had the experiences where I hated my body in photos. Where I was just "blah" about my photos and where I went "Hot damn! That's me!" Every photograph has a spot in this journey. Every experience makes the experience better for you and for me.

We spent our last night in Dallas -staying up late and talking about pricing, hopes and dreams for the future, and so much more. The final day of the workshop,…

My Boudoir Photos, the STRESS | Springfield Boudoir Photographer
If you were watching the LIVE in Paula’s Boudoir Babes, you probably saw the pre-workshop/shoot day for me. Let me recap for you! I was nervous. I was scared. I was second guessing all the things. There was no hair and makeup. There was just me. I did my makeup like I usually do for work and took a deep breath and said “This is me.” (cue the Greatest Showman song- This is ME!) I packed all my hopeful outfits and went to the workshop. The first part was couples and I watched as they were nervous in a room with NINE people photographing them at one point. It…
