Southern Belles Boudoir

Wow wow wow wow WOW!! I walked into the studio so insecure! Ashley and Rachel greeted me and instantly started calming my nerves and hyping me up for my shoot. I was 8 months pregnant and they offered me snacks and water while I was getting my hair and make up done by Ashlee Medina. While Ashlee was fixing my hair and face, Rachel and Ashley were finishing up with another client, both they both would come back and check on me periodically. Ashley was chatting with me, calming my nerves and keeping me distracted by talking about her wedding in California. Once my hair and makeup were done, I got changed into my first outfit I brought. They came in and we got started. I was so worried about not knowing how to pose or how to look "sexy" but Ashley and Rachel showed me just how to pose, and even accommodated it because of my pregnancy. Once I had used all the outfits I brought, they showed me their "client closet" stocked full of lingerie, shoes, jewelry and tulle for the clients to choose from. After picking out a couple of piece m, we got back to shooting. My final part of the shoot was a milk bath. They had me wrapped up in green tulle and lay in the tub, and that had this beautiful bouquet of flowers they places around me and took amazing pictures. When I was done and cleaned off, they gave me a little goodie bag. About a week and a half later, I got a text scheduling a time for me to come in and choose my product and pay. I got the 8x8 album with 20 pictures, and set up a payment plan to pay on the 1st and 15th of every month until paid off. I went today to pick up my album and it was wrapped in tissue paper, placed in a box, wrapped in bubble wrap, and in a nice tote. I opened my album and I was STUNNED! I had no idea how these ladies could turn an 8 month pregnant lady into something as hot and sexy as they did. I loved my experience so much that I decided to book another photoshoot now that I'm no longer pregnant, and I couldn't be more excited!!

Thank you Rachel and Ashley for showing me how beautiful and sexy I truly am! Right from the start the ladies (photographers) make you feel comfortable. They offer mimosas, fresh baked cookies, crackers and other beverages before the pampering begins! The professional hair and makeup lady dolls you up before you begin your one-on-one boudoir shoot. I never felt nervous or uncomfortable from the get-go. Rachel and Ashley showed true professionalism from the beginning to the end, even getting on the floor next to me to show me how to pose. They never asked me to pose in a way that made me uncomfortable or pushed my non-athletic physique. Thank you SO much ladies for showing me the true beauty of being a woman! Every woman should take the time to celebrate their beauty with a boudoir session. You will not regret it! Side note: drink plenty of water the night before so that you will not cramp up. Posing is a workout! Cheers and thanks again Rachel amd Ashley!
