I took some photos of Camilla the other day. Not only is she a great model, BUT she also just graduated with a Masters in English Literature. She loves nature as much as words, so it seemed fitting to do a session where we incorporated both of those things. I love celebrating women in their big accomplishments in life! We so often forget to celebrate ourselves when we do something big, like graduating from university- but it's a big freakin deal! I was so happy that I could

I love to combine hiking and portraits. Not only do we end up at amazing places when we hike, but by the time we end up at our destination, the vibe is more relaxed and grounded and it creates even more space for beautiful photos. So for these photos, that's what Natalie and I did :) We hiked with our backpack full of dresses for about an hour to get to this waterfall, changed into these pretty dresses and then climbed barefoot across some rocks to get to these epic spot.

Just like with my wedding highlights, I am highlighting my boudoir and empowerment portraits from this year in a way that is different than tradition. So here are my top session highlights for boudoir and empowerment sessions in 2017. Please feel free to check out other boudoir blog posts if you would like to see more of any of these sessions! 1) Forest Boudoir. I feel like these images speak for themselves, so.... haha.

One of my favourite things about boudoir is how fabulous it makes women feel. This lovely lady walked in feeling sick after a few weeks of illness and left feeling confident and beautiful. Boudoir is an act of self love. #outdoorboudoir #forestboudoir #vancouverisland #boudoir #boudoirphotographer #forest #rainforest

Janelle looking pretty, inside and out. I love making art with creative people who are comfortable in front of the camera, and luckily for me Janelle is one of those people! These photos are a good show of what my largest boudoir package looks like- photos indoors and out, creativity and fun times.

I have a lot of conversations with women about boudoir. A lot of them are super pumped on it (for obvious reasons), but many women feel like they are either not in good enough shape, or too old, or just not confident enough. These to me are all awesome reasons to do boudoir! Boudoir is not just about making pretty pictures. Boudoir is an act of self love. Here are the top 4 reasons that I feel every woman should jump in front of the camera of a professional boudoir photog

Ok, so, in case you haven't caught on yet, I kinda like rainforests. Like, kinda a lot. Rainforests mixed with moving water might be my favourite thing. And photographing people in rainforests with water might be my other favourite thing. There's a clear theme here. So a while ago, Sybil found this awesome old/ second growth spot with an incredible little creek, some awesome boulders and of course old growth and moss everywhere. I started dreaming of taking some photos her
