Boudoir by Cathy Empey - Photographer: All I want for Christmas...

I am a wife, mom to six kids, a lefty, a photographer. We have six kids that are ten and under. (One big brother to five little sisters!)

I am redefining SEXY!

During my pregnancy, and really through out the postpartum phases of my life I really desired to feel good about my body. Pregnant or not. I just wanted to feel sexy, confident and beautiful. I wanted how I felt on the inside to match what I looked like outside. But my reflection in the mirror didn't match how I felt. In fact, I didn't even recognize the woman staring back at me. After a maternity photo shoot of my sixth and final pregnancy I saw myself for the first time as beautiful, sexy and gorgeous. I felt like I was walking on air!

As the last days of my final pregnancy passed, and our last baby was born I realized that I wanted to feel beautiful like I did in those maternity photos.

I also realized there were other women that felt exactly the same way I was feeling. Whether they had babies or not. So, after almost 20 years of putting my 'creative' artist/photographer to the side. I found my passion was renewed! So, I bought myself my new camera.

I use my camera to make other women feel gorgeous and sexy.

I love what I do, and do what I love.

All I want for Christmas...

What a great session I had today. I always look forward to my sessions because I get to meet the most wonderful women! Today the session was a Christmas gift for a boyfriend. Well let me tell you he is ONE LUCKY man! We had fun with a bit of a Christmas theme going on. We used a red and white candy cane, and we used red lipstick! BUT, I am sorry I cannot show you more! We cannot spoil a wonderful Christmas gift for this man. When she asked him what he wanted for Christmas he said 'you!' How sweet is he!

He is going to LOVE his gift for sure! It was a pleasure meeting you today K. I cannot wait to hear how the present went over :D
