The other day we were opening our mail, and getting excited about all the new Boudoir International sign ups we have been receiving, when we came across this photographer and addition to the Boudoir International site. Erin Michelle wrote one of the sweetest notes we have ever received and she was kind enough to let us share it with you all! This is definitely one of the best parts of our job and thank you Erin, for taking the time to write us. You can check out her site at The Boudoir Maven.
If you haven’t checked out the Go 4 Pro blog yet, head over there now! (well, after you read this blog of course :). ) But this blog is hosted by Leah, who basically wanted to start a blog all about her passion of photography. She includes everything from interviews, to tips and inspiration, to her daily life. We love it because she sounds like she is having a conversation with us in her blog. Her tips are awesome because she doesn’t hold anything back and shows examples through pictures. Basically, Leah, you are awesome!
Recently, she contacted us about doing an interview with The Boudoir Divas. Of course, we jumped at the opportunity, especially since it is part of her “Inspire me Friday” section! We are so honored, and hope you all enjoy! Click HERE to see the interview.
The Bou International is a “GO” people! Yay!
So now we are full steam ahead. Well, after this workshop is over of course. Then it’s full steam ahead. We will soon be launching ad campaigns on our fave wedding blogs and spreading the word like wild fire. Thank you so much to all you smarty pants who signed up. It shows your passion and dedication for boudoir photography and we know that any clients www.boudoirinternational.com sends your way will be thrilled with you and your service. K has been working hard all day on a newsletter for all of you with some fun goodies so that you can brag to your clients about just how cool we think that you are. Market like it’s hot guys, tell the world how great you are, make us proud! Today I’ve been trying to work hard (I get distracted easily, damn Facebook) and see I have to admit that this blog post is pretty easy since K pretty much did all the work for me. Copy and paste, thanks Bitner! (That’s short for business partner). Here is a sneak peak of the email that going out to our members. Since not all of you have signed up for the Bou International we realize that you wouldn’t realize all the perks that these members are getting, so we wanted to let you know just what you are missing out on 😉 Tee hee. If you want more info please email Ash at [email protected].
Here is what my wonderful Bitner wrote to the members…..

Isn’t it sweet that she adds my name. But notice how her name is first. Hmmmmm. I’ll have to address that with her. How dare she do ALL the work and then put her name first.
The invites have finally been sent out. It has been a huge project and a long time coming and we are so excited to launch The Boudoir Divas International Referral List. Didn’t get an invite? Read below as to the two main reasons as to why we may not have invited your photography business. It was a hard decision process and we really wanted it to be the top quality boudoir photographers in the world! We would love for anyone to resubmit their portfolio in 2 months and we can re-evaluate as we will constantly be updating the international referral list site. We really hope you all understand and hope that it only motivates you to get out there and take your business to the next level!
