Valentine's Day Boudoir: Blushing Bride

This year I really want to get into doing more Boudoir sessions. Not only are they so much fun to do, but it's a great way to let your inner beauty shine out! Boudoir isn't about being photographed in next to nothing. Boudoir is about showing your beauty, both inside and out. Boudoir is about being comfortable in your skin. It's about showing your curves and being proud of them. It's about being confident in knowing that you look damn good!

This year, I started off my Boudoir sessions in time for Valentine's Day. I hosted one day in Sonoma and another in Oakley/Brentwood.

Miss L came to my session in Oakley/Brentwood. If you've read my blog, you will notice Miss L looks familiar. That is because she is one of my brides this year! She wanted to do this session for her fiancé and I'm so glad she did! She really rocked this session! She even brought some ideas from Pinterest, which was totally cool with me because I love me some Pinterest!

Hair + Makeup done by the lovely and talented Anna Alvarez.



This is definitely one of my faves!!!

Lorena + Alex - A Stow Lake Engagement

I arrived at Stow Lake early to scout out the area. I've never been there before and wanted to find the good spots, or at least the spots that came up on Google images. After an hour, or so, of walking around, I had no success in finding those spots.

Lorena and Alex finally arrived and we jumped right into their session. Well, only because the waterfall was right there as we were walking in. :)


Lorena's sister, Adela, actually did her makeup for this session. Didn't she do great?! I'm loving the wind that blew through her hair on this one. High five, Mother Nature!





I may have mentioned this in my sneak peek post, but the way that Alex proposed to Lorena was simply romantic! He had a brick engraved at the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium with the proposal. The day they went to Dallas to watch a game, Alex was stuck trying to find the location of the brick, while Lorena struggled to stay cool in the hot Texas heat. Here's a replica of the proposal brick.




Stow Lake had some really cool spots, like this huge branch that made a perfect arch.


And this bridge!




Lorena + Alex plan on getting married next Spring/Summer. I can't wait! I'm beginning to feel like I'm a part of their family :)

Here's a little video of their engagement session.
