We work hard on make sure Aba was disgusted ;P.

"A huge shout out to Courtney Patterson and Becca Orcutt who recommended me to Lil a couple of years ago for her newborn photos. Over the years Ive had the pleasure to capture both sides of her family, her family by themselves and now Lil beautifully pregnant with her 4th baby. They have 3 beautiful boys and she is a crazy amazing person. She works out like crazy and does triathlons even while pregnant. She is pretty much my spirit animal ;P. 

Anyways... back to this shoot. I had specific ideas about what I wanted her to wear, where to shoot..etc. We started off in my studio where my HUMAElisha Seaton (she is AHMAZING) pampered and dolled Lil up. I kept saying I wish I had more time in the studio because we didnt even get to all of the outfits, she was just so gorgeous in each outfit. 

Lil had requested a second look so we really did it up for the outdoor maternity photos! She wore a beautiful blue/grey (Blue Rain) dress fromSewTrendy Accessories and a gorgeous crown made by Ryan Shedrick. We then had her change into this gorgeous lace dress that I purchased off Amazon and that pretty much every photographer owns now, lol. Its gorgeous and so flexible in its use! The idea of getting into the water was just originally for her to stand in it because it was so blasted hot and I wanted to get one water shot...then Lil proved why she is so amazing and was totally down with pretty much whatever I asked her to do. 

I hope you enjoy this session as much as I do!"

New Beginnings...

This is a hard blog for me to write. One of my closest friends is moving to Florida with her beautiful girls. She has been such an inspiration to me for years, as a wife, mother, student then becoming the amazing nurse she is...all while being an Army wife and dealing with all that comes with that title. 

She wanted to capture her and the girls just having fun and being together. I cannot wait to see these hanging in the new place.. and I cant wait to come visit. <3

Sadie Mae (Lifestyle Newborn)

So excited to be featuring Sadie on the blog today! 

I've known Anna since I was 6 or 7 years old, riding horses together out at Triton Stables. I am incredibly proud to see her as a mother and get to witness the love between her and Kris. They are such a wonderful unit and Sadie is so blessed to have them as parents.

Warmly,

Emma 

Enjoy! 

 

 

Blush Boudoir Experience

I am so excited to share and blog about the behind the scenes and final images/videos from my Blush Boudoir Video Shoot. 

Thanks to  MediaBrewer Films, the moms and gorgeous women who participated and R Shedrick Artistry who styled hair and makeup for not only the models but myself. We had SUCH a blast and it was such an incredible experience. 

I started working really hard on Blush Boudoir because of my own insecurities in my body. After I had my daughter, Charlotte, I actually lost all my baby weight..wait, don't say anything yet haha... then my husband deployed, I suffered from PPD and Anxiety that was completely new to me and then I became the caretaker of my mother for a short amount of time. Lets just say, gelato, pizza and cheesecake became my best friends so I gained back not only the baby weight but more than I have ever weighed before. I got tired of putting myself down, hearing other women labeling their self worth by what they looked like. 

I've learned that you can be a size 2 or a size 22 and not be happy with your body. I've also learned you can be a size 22 and ROCK IT OUT! I wanted to make sure every woman whether they were confident or not could walk out of my studio or their session and feel absolutely amazing. 

Whether you want to book your session just for yourself, your significant other or a special event, Blush Boudoir is where to go! 

We also book couples boudoir and bridal boudoir for your special day! 

Warmly,

Emma
