Happy Anniversary! Celebrate with a Boudoir Experience! ~ Boudoir Photography, Vancouver, WA

Awhile ago I wrote a blog post looking at reasons why every woman should get a boudoir session… one of those reasons was that’s a super fun gift to give a significant other… because, REALLY, the gift is for YOU, too! =) That was the case with this session. This amazing, gorgeous woman wanted to do something special for her fifth wedding anniversary, so she treated herself to a photo session experience with my HMUA Morgan and me!

Several of these images show one fierce, bad-ass woman… but really, there was SO much laughter going on! It was a great way to spend an afternoon. =) Every time that I wanted a genuine smile, I just had to ask her to “think about that thing that your husband did…” It brought the magic… and I was happy NOT knowing what she was thinking about! ;)

Because she wanted photos, in part, as a gift for her husband, we also included one of his sweatshirts in a few of the images. I love it when my clients bring an article of clothing, or a piece of jewelry that’s meaningful to them and their “reason” for the experience. I often see this in terms of shirts or jackets, but you could also incorporate items like a tie/scarf, favorite shoes, a special necklace (makes for some great boob shots. lol) or earrings, or even something more “prop-like”, such as a book, whiskey glass (did this once for an anniversary session!), special flower, etc. I also love highlighting meaningful tattoos, and always ask, when I have a client with body art, if any of the tattoos are significant to her session.

What kind of clothing item, jewelry, prop, or body art would you want to include to highlight your relationship with your significant other? I’d love to hear!
