Can we just say… this was SUCH an amazing group of workshop attendees!!! We had so much fun hanging out with all of these amazing photographers. Here’s a little recap video from the Boudoir Workshop – and make sure you watch it until the very end! (Our attendees were left unattended with our video camera… made us laugh out loud when we watched the footage later!) In case you’re interested in joining us for a future Boudoir Divas workshop, we only have ONE MORE LEFT for this year… and we’ll be announcing the date VERY VERY SOON! So stay tuned. To all of our June attendees – we miss y’all already. Thanks so much for taking the time to come out here… for having the business saavy to know the importance of investing in learning the business of boudoir… and for hanging out with us for two days!
And now for a couple of photos from the workshop…
A HUGE part of our distinct Boudoir Divas’ style has to do with the way we light our clients with what we call our ‘hot lights.’ We have a demonstration portion of the workshop where we’ll show you the tips and tricks to create flattering lighting that your clients will love.
Once the demo portion is over, then it’s time for YOU to try it out! We have set up quick stations where each attendee will have the opportunity to work with 2 models for some 1-on-1 time. This is really just our way to let you each have a chance to DO what we have just showed you.
Check out our gorgeous Drop it Modern backdrops! Love these babies! (Oh, and PS… did you know that when you come to our workshop, you’re going to receive a SWAG BAG that is just FILLED with awesome deals, coupons, and fun goodies from some of our favorite vendors?!) Such a huge bonus. Seriously you guys – the cash value of the great deals we’ve hooked up for you is well over 1,000 dollars!!!
Even though you’re working 1-on-1, never fear… the Divas are always right there, just in case you need some help.
During the small group shooting time, you’ll be working in our natural light setting, and also outdoors… this is a great way to practice nailing your exposures, and working on posing.
Did we mention that you will be leaving with a freakin’ KILLER PORTFOLIO?! 🙂 We have to give a huge shout-out and THANK YOU to all of our amazing models for the hard work they put into modeling for us all day long! Thanks, ladies!
We hope to see some of you at our next workshop! (Dates to be announced very soon!) xoxo, K & M
Check out this never-before-seen video from earlier this year, showing our excitement we received our first shipment of THE LIGHTING DVD!!!!!
In case you didn’t hear, we are running a Memorial Day Sale on the Lighting DVD! Go on over to the Boudoir Shop to check out the deal and buy the DVD! On the Lighting & Shooting DVD, we walk you through 4 different lighting set-ups, showing our easy recipes for studio lights. If you are a boudoir photographer who wants to catapult your business to the next level, we highly recommend thinking about adding studio lights to your repertoire. Studio lighting will give your images a cinematic look, and will help you stand out above your competition (especially if all of your competitors are only shooting in natural light!) The purchase of the DVD also includes a lighting recipe booklet, so that you can reference it during your boudoir shoots.
If you already receive the Divas’ NEWSLETTER, then you already know about the contest we were running, to give away a copy of THE LIGHTING DVD! So today we have our announcement! And the WINNER IS…… Christina Mikael! Congrats, Christina! I’ve sent you an email already, so all we need from you is your mailing address, and we’ll ship the Boudoir Lighting DVD to you asap!
For the rest of you who were hoping to win the Lighting DVD, we have a special sale on the Lighting DVD for you in honor of Memorial Day!

Things are always a-changing around The Boudoir Divas’ photography studio. Wanna hear about our newest biz changes???… watch the quick, somewhat-crappy-quality video! Ha ha. Hey I have a lot to do today, wish I had time to whip out the MarkII! Anyway TGIF to you all and say “hi” below please! I always love to know who is checking in. It makes my day! -M
Ps. I cracked up at the thumbnail YouTube chose. I know I can change it but it’s so bad it’s good. Lol.
We’ve had the wonderful pleasure of working with Tenley Molzahn a few times now. She’s always SO much fun to work with, and of course she’s gorgeous, so the images are gorgeous! We still have a few more weeks before we’ll launch our “Believe in Beauty” video and photo extravaganza… but this post is a little teaser of Tenley’s newest project that she’s working on. This is one talented lady, and she has big things ahead of her. We’re excited that she chose US to take some photos for her new project! Here are just a few of our favorites…
STYLING: Tenley is wearing the most comfy, cute sheepskin boots… by WHOOGA! Go get yourself a pair right now! (She’s wearing the “classic tall” style, in the “Sand” color)… I have to say, living in the Pacific Northwest, I live in these boots. Literally. If it’s a cloudy day here, I never take them off. 🙂 Her sweatshirt & shorts are both from Shop Moderne, and BTW, I think I HAVE to have that heart sweatshirt. I’m just sayin, it’s pretty darn adorable. (PS, There’s a great coupon code out there right now for Memorial Day! The code is “MEM35”). Thanks, everyone, for checkin in with our blog this week. I’m happy to say that this has been a ‘perfect week’ for the Boudoir Divas, ie, we have posted a new blog post EVERY day this week so far. Now be sure to check in Saturday and Sunday – there just might be more fun things in store for you this weekend.
HAIR & MAKEUP: by the fabulous, amazing, Miss Peggy Rogers!
Have a great weekend, everyone! xoxo, Kimberlee

The project I’m working on today… gosh, the ‘dreamer’ part of me is freaking out with excitement – while the other ‘feet on the ground’ part of me is saying ‘don’t get your hopes up!’ Which side should I listen to!?
“To accomplish great things, we must not only act but also dream, not only plan, but also believe!” — Anatole France
To all of the dreamers out there: combine your action with your dreams, and don’t let anyone tell you you CAN’T or WON’T be able to accomplish your dreams!
I’ll leave you on this Wednesday afternoon with a photo from our most recent studio group photo shoot… Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday! -K
