Sex Swing, It's a Sex Swing | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

We got an adult swing in the studio…. a leather swing…..fuck it, sex swing. It’s a sex swing. I never know what to call it on social media to avoid getting flagged or banned - so we just say THE swing. tehehe

I CANNOT WAIT to photograph you in this beautiful thing! Until then, you know I had to test it out myself first! I really wish I would have recorded behind the scene video of me trying to capture these self portraits. It was NOT as glamorous, sexy, or coordinated as it appears from the final images. Those that have had a session with me know how this goes. It RARELY feels as good as it looks. BAHAHAHA

Colorado Self Portrait Session | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

I am totally digging the wood filled cabin aesthetic paired with the warmth from the chandelier above the table at our condo in Keystone, Colorado. Equally as pleased with myself for bringing along the mustard velvet bodysuit from the client closet. I knew it was going to play well with the atmosphere here!

How It All Started | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

After photographing a few more friends and models for practice I quickly found how impactful a boudoir photoshoot can be for someone. It is a full day, focused on making you feel like a million bucks! The session is SO MUCH FUN. It is like playing dress up with your gal pal and laughing the whole time. You get to see yourself dolled up with the red carpet treatment - complete with hair and make up - posed to perfection. It is having the biggest hype man - me - by your side cheering you on the whole day. GO LITTLE ROCKSTAR! It’s finally being able to see the beauty in yourself that everyone that loves you sees. TALK ABOUT EMPOWERING!

Scarlet Fever | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

Have I mentioned lately, I love when clients give me permission to share their images!

Sometimes those images are shared on my website, sometimes my social media, or even promotions!

Signing a model release is not for everyone and that is okay but when it works out it makes me bust a move and makes my heart BURST!

I give my clients the option of different levels of photography release! Speaking of..

Gahhhhhhh, this session! Say Hello to Ashley! Working with her was beyond rewarding! I am always unmeasurably appreciative when you allow me to share the magic we create in the Divulged Studio!

Craving Crimson - Kelly is Captivating | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

Kelly completely shines in these images! Why are redheads so forever stunning!

These green hues look striking on her; from emerald to teal, any shade of green is stunning when paired with red hair!!

Boudie Fact Check- It has been scientifically proven that seeing the color red increases a viewers metabolism, heart rate and respiration. Wow, so being a redhead is a powerful fucking thing indeed!

LAUGHTER IS INDEED CONTAGIOUS AND SOMETHING WORTH SPREADING AROUND! AND DANIELA’S BEAMING SMILE AND LAUGHTER ARE BOTH SO FREAKING CONTAGIOUS!

SMALL PROPS (SUCH AS THE ICE USED FOR DANIELAS SESSION) CAN CREATE SUCH A BIG IMPACT- THINK OF ANYTHING YOU CAN PLAY WITH USING YOUR HANDS OR MOUTH- ICE, FRUIT, WHISKEY, OR CHAMPAGNE, WHATEVER YOUR FRISKY HEART DESIRES!

You Bake Me Crazy | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

WE LET THE FLOUR FLY! I THINK A KITCHEN SESSION IS NOT COMPLETE WITHOUT AND KNEADS TO BE A LITTLE MESSY! LIFE CAN BE A LITTLE BIT FROSTY, BUT REALLY IT IS WHAT YOU BAKE IT. (SEE WHAT I DID THERE).. TEHEHE

LINGERIE LAUNDRY CARE TIPS | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

Great lingerie is not only delicate, but it can be quite expensive. If you’ve invested in pieces you love and feel confident in, it’s important to know how to properly care for your garments to maintain quality and lengthen their life.

We have all ruined garments in the washer or dryer at least once in our life. And IT SUCKS! Our intimate wear is one of those categories of clothing that come with special handling instructions to make sure it lasts a long time. You want your lingerie to keep its shape and withstand wear after multiple washes.

MEET EMILY, THIS LOVELY MAMA OF 3 WORKS AT A LOCAL WINERY AND IS A VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTER. SHE IGNITED A FLAME IN THE STUDIO, STRUCK A MATCH AND WE NEARLY BURNED THE BITCH DOWN. BY BURNING THE BITCH DOWN I AM ACTUALLY REFERRING TO MY USUAL BULL IN A CHINA SHOP-SELF NEARLY KNOCKING OVER A CANDLE AND SETTING THINGS A BLAZE! (IYKYK)

MEET ALLISON- HEY GIRL HEY-

WHEN I FIRST ASKED WHAT MADE HER WANT TO BOOK A BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE, ALLISON ANSWERED SHE HAS ALWAYS WANTED TO DO THIS, AND DECIDED THIS WAS HER YEAR! AND SHE WAS DOING IT FOR HERSELF! (YOU GO GLEN COCO) SHE MENTIONED HER SESSION NOT ONLY INSTILLED A NEW SENSE OF EMPOWERMENT, BUT MADE HER FEEL GOOD ABOUT HERSELF AND PROUD OF THE PERSON SHE IS.

She's Kind of a Hidden GEM | Kansas City Boudoir Photographer

Precious gems (just like this babe) are profoundly buried in the earth and can only be extracted at the expense of great labor. The labor of self- love is a heavy one indeed! We're often told to love ourselves, but it's easier said than done. Self-love is our secret weapon to living a fulfilling life!

Sumar wanted “to gain her confidence and love herself again!” - Challenge Accepted and Mission Complete! So excited to share not only some of her stunning images from her session but some of her thoughts on her boudoir experience!
