Behind the camera!

One of the best things about our job is knowing when the ladies leave our studio they couldn't feel better about themselves!!  We have had the privilege of meeting some of the best around!  Everyone has a story and each one is a bit different and unique in their own way!
Everyone comes with butterflies, (some more than others) but it's so rewarding to see the smiles on their faces as they walk out our door!  Here are just a few "woot woots" we've received lately and a couple of "behind the scenes" pictures.



"I love the pictures, they turned out so perfect!  Your work is fantastic!"
Thanks,
Laura

"Just wanted to say thanks again for everything you ladies did for me and Carries last night.  It was awesome!  You really took your time event though it was getting so late.  It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to get my teaser picture today"

"Hey, thank you again so much for last night, we had so much fun!"
Kendra



"Being a plus size woman, my biggest fear about my photo shoot was my body image.  I have to admit that the two of you were so amazing that for a couple of hours I think I actually forgot about all the extra weight.  The whole experience was so empowering and I had such a great time that I can't wait to 
do it again.  I am going to recommend Pixies to anyone who will listen!"

Shannon

"What a wonderful time, you made me feel so beautiful would love to do it again sometime!"

What to bring to your boudoir shoot?

This is something that we get asked often.  Here are a few ideas of what you can wear for your shoot.

LINGERIE:  Baby dolls, corsets, teddies, bra pantie set, garter belts & stockings all look great!  If you want more shape, maybe pick a corset. Want to camouflage your mid-section, use a baby doll.  Pick colors that you feel look great on you!

CASUAL:  You don't have to wear lingerie for your shoot, there are a ton of other great ideas.  Baggy sweaters with a pair of panties look really cute!  A little black dress (or your favorite dress) can make you feel good.  Even robes and coats can be fun.  Look through your significant others closet, maybe one of his shirts and ties, jerseys or any other fun thing that you can find.

ACCESSORIES:  Shoes are a definite must!!  Jewelry looks good too.  It just adds a little something to your outfit.  Try adding gloves, long satin ones can look great.  Another thing that can really add something to your photos is a hat.  Whether it be a fedora, cowboy, baseball etc...

Here a couple of other things to remember before you come to your photo shoot.
1.  Wear something that makes you feel comfortable and good about yourself.
2.  Clean the bottoms of you shoes before you arrive.
3.  Wear loose fitting clothing to your session to prevent lines, dents & marks on your skin.
4. Tan lines can be hard to photoshop so try to come without any or maybe wear something that hides them a bit.

Last but not least.  Enjoy yourself!  Don't stress too much if you don't know what to wear.  That's what we are here for.  You can always email or call us if you have questions about anything.  We will be with you EVERY step of the way.
