When K scheduled a session I couldn’t have been more excited! This darling is not only one of my boudoir clients but she is also one of my brides! She brought a veil and her wedding shoes to her session to get bridal in studio! I think it was the perfect way to get her excited for wedding day!

When a boudoir session involves whiskey, you know it’s a good day. J wanted some intimate portraits for her hubby as an anniversary present. She admitted to me that she used to be GREAT with gift giving but has gotten lax in the recent years of marriage. This year, I know her boudoir book will be one heck of a surprise!

When I first opened Dogwood Lane, I never dreamed that I would be posing in the space! Once a year, Ben and I have our photos taken together. Sometimes it’s during Christmas, sometimes it’s an anniversary session.. but this year, I’ve been really inspired by boudoir. I wanted to start offering couple’s boudoir sessions but before I did, I needed to feel what it’s like to be on the other side of the camera. After getting married, I undoubtedly became a better wedding photographer. The same rule applies to boudoir!

Is there anything more glamorous than a gal about to get married!? R decided to come in for a bridal boudoir session as a surprise to her fiance! She came into the studio just weeks before her big day! I love when clients plan it this way because they’re usually feeling super confident and beaming with self-love ready for their wedding!

Sarah & Gus planned an engagement session that was so uniquely them. These two feel most at home cozied up with a cocktail in hand just hanging out so their favorite bar, The Truxton Inn, was the perfect setting! Since I am so used to photographing outside at the monuments, this was a lovely change of pace for me! I am SO glad I got to snap these images for this stunning couple before they tie the knot on the West Coast!

This year was surreal. I built my business in ways I never thought possible. I photographed 29 weddings, 61 engagement & lifestyle sessions, 10 boudoir sessions, 2 proposals and 21 mini sessions. I traveled to abroad to Cuba, Tulum, Montreal, cruised Alaska and slept in a car in the Great American West.

Catherine & Hamed had one of the most stylish weddings I have ever attended. These two wanted to have a traditional Persian wedding surrounded by family in a room that reminded them of Versailles…. and Cosmos Club delivered! These two both got ready at the club before pledging their lives to one another before flipping the room for reception!

Abbey & William planned a trip to South Florida to celebrate their one year anniversary. We actually snapped these portraits on the exact day these two got hitched one year ago! When deciding where to have their session, Abbey knew she wanted a few beach snaps but some classic South Florida backdrops as well. I suggested Worth Avenue and it seemed like the perfect match!

This was the first ever holiday season that I offered mini sessions for my family clients and OH BOY am I glad I did! I am absolutely smitten with these images! Twenty-one families of all sizes and backgrounds came to my studio; we had 11 dogs, 3 babies and 5 couples all join in the fun! I am so so thankful for each and every person featured in the images below! Until next year and happy holidays!

I met Victoria over a year ago! I was hired to photograph her sister’s wedding at the Josephine Butler Parks Center. Victoria is a photographer herself AND was a bridesmaid. I myself have been in this position and know what it’s like to want to take pictures of your loved one getting married! I encouraged her to snap some images during the day and she was the biggest help during their Alex’s day! Fast forward to THIS fall and Victoria is engaged herself!
