A dream becomes a reality!


[me]


I am so thankful to all of you wonderful women who have been booking boudoir sessions with me! I cannot thank you all enough for taking a chance with me, and giving me the opportunity to photograph you all. In January 2008, I had decided that I wanted to specialize in boudoir photography and I had said to myself that I will give myself a year to get organized and start taking boudoir photos. At first I only had the confidence to photograph Barbie dolls and my own kids. Then I got brave, and I did my very first photo session and I LOVED the experience, and most importantly so did she. I knew at that moment, this is what I was meant to do!

I am proud to say, that it is October 1st and about ten months later things have started rolling! I mean really rolling! To the point where I am almost in disbelief at how quickly things are moving forward! My hopes, dreams and prayers are becoming reality! I just cannot believe what a great feeling that is. This couldn't be done without the support of all of you, and of course my husband who kept pushing me to move forward and show the world that I am a boudoir photographer and not 'just a mom of six kids.' 

I also want to say  thank you also to my wonderful photo friends (Jillian, Sarah, Carol, Kristy, Michele, Tammy and Hope) for helping me find my wings to soar! Your input, experience and nudges along the way have been invaluable to me. Seriously you all are the best!

To my wonderful followers of my photography journey I am grateful for this wonderful opportunity to serve the needs of women who deserve to feel gorgeous, sexy and beautiful. After all, isn't that what every woman wants?! I know that is how I really want to feel!

Photography helps me to find a balance in my life and that is a really good thing for me! I have been a stay at home mom for over nine years, and over the years  I was always searching for SOMETHING that would help out my family, help out my wonderful husband, and feed my creative needs.  Oh, and be a role model to my six young children, and especially my five young daughters. I want them to grow up with positive images of their bodies, and a great self esteem. 

My desire is to use my photography to show EVERY woman that they are beautiful no matter what! 

So thank you all for your support and belief in me! I am the luckiest woman!
