Candle lit boudoir is fire!

Ahh, this one gave me LIFE! It was full of the excitement + anxiety of her first boudoir experience and my excitement + anxiety about pulling off a candle lit session and acting like I knew what I was doing. Thank you so much, Carissa! We didn't know what we would create, but we made MAGIC!

Let's start at the beginning. It's early August and the session began outdoors. Honestly, that was just incase the candles weren't as amazing as I'd hoped. The lens instantly fogged up, and I inwardly said "OH, THANK YOU!!!!" to the creative gods because it gave us a dreamy hazy essence for the first few shots. Rennaisance Goddess Queen in a painting, right?!

We had a surprise visitor.... Has anyone seen a RED DRAGONFLY?! I had never!

I can't even... <3 CANVAS WORTHY!!!

Self love, baby. Self love.

At some point it hit me that this vibed like Eve in the Garden.

The fig tree + a sexually awakened woman... Ok, maybe that's Lillith, LOL!

This whole segment was coming out so beautifully, but we had to move on to the extra exciting part....

We went into the studio... and it was EVERYTHING! We were both squealing!

Both of us ended this shoot saying "I needed this so much!"

Moral of the story --

Take the chance!

Woman, you are ART!

So how about you, woman?

Do you dare to explore?
