Feel Beautiful…be Beautiful

 

 

I am really dedicated to Feel Beautiful sessions.  Let me tell you why.  I believe all women need to Feel Beautiful at all stages of their lives. As women in their 30′s++ carry on with their lives, we dedicate our time to our families and friends, community and professions and then one day we realize that we haven’t been photographed in a long time.  Maybe this is on purpose or maybe it is us who have been behind the camera documenting everyone else’s lives. Maybe we feel that we can’t compete with the photos we are bombarded with in magazines, TV etc. How many times have you said, “I look HORRIBLE in photographs!” I have heard that from so many women.  Do you know what I say? “That is not your fault. Your photographer is responsible.” I am all about the posing and the lighting. Girls have to stick together, ya know. I want you to look your best so that your sons, daughters, husbands or partner will ALWAYS have a beautiful photograph of their mother or their wife. You will always have a photograph that you love.  There is a strength and wisdom that comes across in photographs of women.  I love that. You will too.

This is Lydia.  She is the mother of 4 boys!  If you are in a household of men, ladies…a Feel Beautiful session is waiting for you.

Carolina Ballerina…

Who is not in love with the idea of twirling en pointe in pink satin ballet shoes? You know if you have never experienced it, you may have wondered what it would be like to spin on the end of your toes graceful and floating.  I love Ballet photography. I admire the dedication it takes to train your body and mind to become a ballet dancer…ballerina? I never made it past the little flat soft ballet shoes in the 6th grade.  I did, however, take a ballet class in college.  It was…stressful. Had trouble remembering the combos (please don’t put me at the front of the barre!) But in my mind I  loved the feeling of being graceful and beautiful so the purpose was served and I was happy! Now, I just live vicariously through others by way of photography and this makes me happy now! Well, I still wish I could kick high over my head.  A girl can keep dreaming, right?  In the mean time, this is Caroline.  She is a Senior in high school this year and will be a freshman at Florida State University in the Fall.  SHE can kick over her head and is beautiful inside and out:)

Tulle, Tulle and a little more Tulle

What a day!  Despite the gray skies outside there was an explosion of tulle inside the studio! We styled hair, applied makeup, laced into corsets and wrapped up in layers of tulle until you could feel the femininity in the air:)The models were so fun and had a great time!  There was the Black Dress…

And the Red Dress…

 

The Ivory Mannequin supplied us with vintage slips–so girlie and beautiful–and corsets as well! Visit her site HERE.  For all of you who live in the Melbourne Florida area, she is located here!!

Here are a few more from the Glamour Session!

 

You too can have a Fun, Feminine Glamour Session!  Hair, Makeup and a day of fun.  Bring your mom, daughter or a friend!  Book your session and then an evening out on the town!  You will look and feel gorgeous!

I am really loving vintage inspired photography lately.  A little quirky, a lot of beautiful!  Love, love, loved this session with Abbey! She is a very classic looking gal and she rocked this photo shoot with a few vintage accessories that we brought along! We started out at my place because the light was so beautiful…

We decided that historic downtown Melbourne was our next choice of location! So many spots for great photographs.

How about stopping traffic for a few vintage inspired shots?! Of course!!

If that wasn’t enough…just have a seat. Why?  Because it is a great shot and why not?!

Our last location was beautiful, the light was just GORGeous and Abbey just made my job easy peasy!

What a pleasure to photograph a newly hired Disney employee!! (She looks great in mouse ears too!)
