Chelsea is so, so cool. Here is why… she flew into Cali to have a boudoir shoot done by yours truly, she bought most of her amazing outfits on Pinupgirlclothing.com , she added a “Cinema Short” to her Supermodel Package, she is comfortable in her own skin, AND she let us show her boudoir video with you. Oh and best of all she is also a photographer! You rocked it Chelsea!
Details for the Paris boudoir workshop can be found here.
“Believe in Beauty” is a term K and I decided on because it is just that. It is the gratitude we feel for God allowing us to have a career in which we can celebrate His beauty by using every bit of the creativity and imagination He blessed us with. These concept shoots are something that we plan months ahead and dream about even longer than that. We are so grateful to Tenley and Kiptyn for doing this shoot with us. As well as quite a few others like:
Weston Boucher wrote the song for us which can be found for photographers use at www.triplescoopmusic.com
John and Norma of NR3 Video Productions did the fancier video footage
Peggy Rogers, amazing make-up & hair! Find her here.
Handsome gentlemen in tuxes:
Brian MacKenzie (ladies he’s single)
Luke Long (he’s in a famous band called Ha Ha Tonka, he’s not single, sawwy)
Jeff See (amazing artist, no idea if he’s got a lady friend)
Weston Boucher (step off, he’s mine, lol)
Ps. Not sure why this became about their relationship status, guess I knew we’d get a comment or ten about it.
Hot air balloon was provided by Sky Surfer Balloons
Becky Pesche and Ashley Sapp also helped take video and stills
Danielle Adams was the much needed and appreciated reflector holder
Always a thank you to our sponsors BAY PHOTO LAB & GRAPHI STUDIO
You can also check them out at the end credits of this video. Thrilled that this video and our Paris launch could be on the same day! What a celebration!
Pop the bubbly! Talk about a happy day for us!! Yay!
I have so much I have been wanting to blog, but it’s summer which means we are slammed! Yay! Love it! But that means that my “to be blogged” folder will just have to wait a while I guess.
I shot this beauty today, Miss Kelenda, and while I loved these images and was so excited she gave permission, I knew that if I didn’t blog them asap that I may not ever get to it. And, if I am honest, I have tax stuff to do tonight so I may be filling my time with more fun things to do in an effort to avoid it. Tee hee ;) Hoping in the future I will be able to show off more of her images, however some are pretty racy! And I say that to remind those who are wondering if we do shoot nudity that while we don’t show them on the site, we do shoot implied nudity. What that means is no actual bits n piece (lol) but strategic nude poses so the client looks naked without actually seeing anything……definitely a gift to add a little heat to the marriage! xo- Marissa
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
We have been chosen to photograph the San Diego famous…..Ashlee and Skye from the Rock 105.3′s “The Show!!!” We are so excited to show off their military inspired pin-up calendar in the coming weeks but for now we will kick things off with this fun behind the scenes teaser. Ashley (our Ash) and I had so much fun photographing them. I think a Hummer and fake ammunition will make any shoot one to remember. Then add two hilarious ladies and sets and outfits that would make any photographers day and you have the hottest pin-up calendar San Diego has ever seen.
We have been so grateful for all the love they are giving us on air as well. And SD ladies must trust these girls faving reviews of us because the phones are ringing off the hook! Thank you so much Skye and Ashlee!!!
The Boudoir Divas team has worked so hard putting together this fun shoot, and when it finally arrived we were thrilled! This is a concept we have been dreaming of doing for quite some time. Dreamy, romantic, and a reminder of the beauty that God has so lovingly placed in all of our hearts. For a while we have had fun putting together very dramatic projects and calling them “Editorial Shoots.” While that name served its purpose, it didn’t have the overall scope for what these shoots meant to us personally as artists. So from now on we will be referring to them as, “Believe in Beauty, a concept shoot by The Boudoir Divas.”
I cannot tell you how thrilled we are as a group to release the video/slideshow of this shoot. It will take a little bit of time, but will completely be worth it. It will feature the fabulous Tenley Molzahn & Kiptyn Locke of The Bachelor! It will feature a song by the very talented photographer AND musician (sexy huh?!) love of my life, Mr. Weston Boucher. Hair and make-up was done by the kickass Peggy Rogers. Incredible friends came to help and don tuxes and John and Norma of NR3 helped us with most of the video filming! Oh and one of the very best things, we had help from an amazing hot air balloon company, SKY SURFER! They were so helpful to work with and their balloon was gorgeous!
Happy Friday everyone! We are sooooooooooo (yes, that much) excited about this fun, editorial shoot we did earlier this week! We can’t share too many details just yet (wait for the big reveal!), but wanted to show a couple teasers of just how much fun we had. Enjoy!
One of our male models, (and good friend) Brian, goofing around and showing his sweet skills….
Another awesome male model and friend, Jeff. It’s his birthday TODAY! Happy Birthday JEFF!!
The whole crew who helped make this amazing shoot with Tenley & Kiptyn (from the Bachelor) possible! Check back for the final images and video. :)
So it seems that many people get into the photography industry because they love being BEHIND the camera; capturing those great memories and emotions for other people to cherish forever. But many photographers are never on the other side of the camera, and many actually despise being in front of the camera. :)
Well, we at The Boudoir Divas feel it is extremely important to take that leap at least once, ESPECIALLY if you are going to focus on Boudoir Photography. You will only know how to relate to your super nervous client if you put yourself in their shoes. This will show you a whole new perspective and outlook on the overall experience. Plus it will help you with posing, angles and lighting to see it from the other side of the camera!
Many of our Workshop Attendees take advantage of getting their own boudoir photo shoot while in San Diego. We even offer a 10% discount off the productions for workshop attendees! We also love photographing workshop attendees because we feel like you all become our close friends after a couple days and it is so much fun!
That being said, I (Ashley) just had to share some photos of the beautiful Lesli, who attended our February workshop. I had such a blast photographing her and absolutely loved her little southern accent. :)
For those of you attending our next workshop in April (spots are still available!), and are interested in your own shoot, email me at info@theboudoirdivas. If you want to secure your spot for April’s workshop, you can do so on our Boudoir Shop.
