Lipstick,Lace and Ladies...

What do you get when you combine 5 beautiful women, red lipstick, lace and thigh highs?? NO....(get your mind out of the gutter) a Boudoir shoot, of course...and what an experience it was!! Providing the red lipstick and all other above shoulder styling (make up and hair), I recently had the opportunity of working along side one of Seattle's top photographers, Rebecca Ellison. Becca and I were "introduced" by  fellow photographer Jennifer Macniven (Jen shot mine and my brothers' wedding)...Not knowing quite what to expect when the job location was a Seattle hotel, I was PLEASANTLY surprised when I arrived to a 50's inspired, art deco hotel in the U-District. Becca created an environment a woman couldn't help but be comfortable and feel sexy in. Each lady had her own 2 hour shoot, with looks and "scenes" special to her personality and comfort level. With five women participating, each had their own reason and story as to why these pictures were important...my two favorites were Ms.B , was having pictures taken for her husband who was returning from a one year Army deployment and Ms. T , who wanted a "pin up" style picture of her self  so she could then have it tattooed and she needed the PERFECT picture to model it after...and I know she got it! After, almost 10 hours, the day wrapped and I walked away feeling like I was apart of a great experience, shared with a room full of beautiful women and a very talent photographer! Can't wait for the next time...you can never go wrong with Lipstick, Lace and Ladies...Take a peek at some of my work (NOTE: All photography was taken by Rebecca Ellison.
