IT'S TIME TO COME OUT OF HIBERNATION!

Shed those winter blues, and embrace the coming warmth of SPRING!

As they say... March comes in like a LION and out like a LAMB... so why not take advantage of these last few "chilly winter days", and embrace them!

I know, I know... we all want the warm lovely breezes of spring... but I surely will miss a nice chilly evening, cozy up next to my special someone!

And what better excuse to cuddle up than a nice crisp evening at home with your love!

Better yet... plan a GIRLS NIGHT OUT! Get a final use out of your favorite pair of sexy winter books and hot wrap sweater! Call up your girlfriends, plan for a sassy dinner and a few drinks... maybe even DANCING! That is a sure way to warm things up in your wintry evenings, and maybe even connect with someone new and exciting...

Some fun things to do, while in wait for the "Lamb" of March to arrive... GET YOUR SHOP ON! Head on over to a few favorite spots and take advantage of winter sales s & clearance!

For instance...

Victorias Secret SALE & CLEARANCE and hope on some sexy deals on winter intimates and sultry dresses!

Overstock.com has my favorite array of sexy heels and sultry boots...

and then of course... grab some great deals on SWIMWEAR!

Yep... it's just around the corner.. and what better reason to get excited about the upcoming warm months than a great deal on a sexy new suit!

Bing.com has a great selection, for all styles and body types!

Whatever you do.. don't forget about March's favorite holiday... ST PATTYS DAY!

Enjoy some time with a few great friends.. and your honey! And even better, dressing the part of the Irish dames as well!

with some super beautiful gals!

One thing we really L.O.V.E. about boudoir photography, is working with every day women... mothers, sisters, wives, etc...

The power of Boudoir Photography is not only sexy... but completely empowering!
VAVA'VOOM LADIES!

Tattoos & PinUps....

2011-02-15T09:52:00.000-08:00

Last month, we set out to host a "Tattoos & Pinups" Boudoir party...
and needless to say, the outcome was HOT!

And full of beautifully inked ladies!

From PinUp Vixens, to Modern Beauties... each lovely face was as beautiful as the next!

We think tattoos are HOT, and add a wonderful and unique touch of "you" to a boudoir or pinup session.
Some of my favorite subjects to shoot have been tattoo'd... we just LOVE IT!

Happy Valentines Day! Warm things up this February...

2011-02-03T09:32:00.000-08:00

BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE!!!

2011-01-19T08:07:00.000-08:00

{Baby It's Cold Outside... so warm things up!}

January might be one of the coldest months around, but here are a few easy ways of heating it back up... no matter what the temperature!!

Go out for dinner! Hit up a local sushi restaurant, or even better.. fondue! What is “hotter” than cooking your own food in a pot of bubbling cheese, then feeding it to each other on skewers! Need some help on delicious ideas, check out Zagat.com and see some yummy choices in your neighborhood!

Send the kids to your mom’s house, and take your honey out to the movies... maybe even see... ready for this?... and R rated movie!!! Getting in some adult time, even in the midst of a packed theater, can bring some heat back into your soul...
My favorite site to use for movies, is Movie Fone.com. Check out your local listing... and see what's new in your theater!

Lastly... enjoy that snow! HAVE A SNOW BALL FIGHT! You might be surprised how much fun you’ll have when you enjoy some playful “fighting”.. and then hot cocoa inside afterwards! Maybe even slip into a sexy and cozy robe (get those wet snow clothes off!)... check out Victorias Secret.com for some hot, and comfy, selections!

Thank you to The Knot.com for this amazing article....
Pink Heels Boudoir Studios SPECIALIZES in boudoir photography, so you won't have to be embarrassed asking your wedding photographer if s/he minds that you "get in your skivvys", lol. Read this lovely article, than come visit us some time :) Your groom will never forget this gift of a lifetime!

Wedding Photography: The Wedding Boudoir Photography Trend

Thinking of surprising the groom with a peek at your passionate side? Read on for details on this hot new wedding photography trend.

You may have heard of one of the latest trends in wedding photography. Hint: It involves the bride wearing a lot less than her gown. Boudoir photography is definitely gaining popularity among to-be brides, but what's it really all about? Find out whether these risque pics are for right you.

So, what is boudoir photography exactly?

Boudoir photography is a sexy new trend that's especially popular as a wedding day gift from a bride to her groom. Boudoir photos are usually taken wearing either just a little, or well, nothing at all. They're hardly X-rated though, but rather PG-13 -- as in classic pinup-inspired pics, or what the pros call 'implied nudes.' That means you're not wearing anything, but you're also not showing off anything either (think shot from the back, or lying on your stomach).

Who will take my pictures?

Many wedding photographers have embraced this trend -- your shutterbug may offer this as an additional service. An added bonus of going with a pro: Many brides like to have the best of their boudoir photos bound in a mini album just for their hubby, a service many wedding photographers are able to arrange. In some cities, you may also be able to find services that specialize in boudoir photography. While the shots you get may not be as high quality as those of a high-end wedding photographer, there can be other perks --like closets full of potential wardrobe items or props. (Not Pink Heels, we have the same high quality, top knotch, equipment that any wedding photographer has! And possibly even better... )

When should I schedule the session?

If you're spending time and money on an exercise and beauty routine, you may want to wait until a week or so before the wedding to show off the results. Plus, a fun and pampering photo shoot is a good way to indulge and take some time out from wedding planning. Though you might be inclined arrange for the session on the morning of your wedding, resist the urge. For one, you're not likely to feel very sultry if the rain clouds looming over your outdoor ceremony site are the first thing on your mind. Second, do you really want your to-be mother-in-law walking in on you while you're posing in just your veil? Stick with a separate shoot so you'll have time to really feel comfortable and get some great shots.

How long does it take?

Though it depends on the package you choose, your boudoir photo session will probably last about two hours. Why so long? It takes time for hair and makeup, plus the additional lighting setup. It may also take you a little while to relax. Most brides aren't used to lounging around wearing little, if any, clothing in front of the camera, so your first few shots will likely look a bit stiff.

What does it cost?

Cost varies considerably -- do a little investigating before you commit to a vision of what you want. Multiple set changes, renting props, or simply time spent can add up quickly. If you can add a private session onto your wedding package, you may be able to get a better deal than if you go with a different wedding photographer. The real key, of course, is whether you gel with your photographer -- if you don't feel comfortable, it will show on camera.

Where should I have it done?

Talk with your photographer to come up with the best location. Many photographers may be able to do a photo session in a studio. Another popular site is a posh hotel room. Your own home or a borrowed home is another option. The main key is to get an okay from your photographer on the locale -- a number of different backgrounds for poses are important, and they'll also need lots of natural light.

What should I wear?

The most important thing -- choose outfits that make you feel sexy. A good rule of thumb: Bring something white, something black, and something in a bright color so you can mix and match. A corset will create sexy curves. In addition to lingerie, don't forget shoes, jewelry, and that engagement ring.

Should I bring anyone along?

Though you don't want to turn your shoot into a three-ring circus, it's a good idea to bring a friend. Why? You'll feel more at ease if you can make a few jokes with a pal, plus she may be able to help with suggestions. Another idea: Bring a bottle of bubbly. A little champagne may help loosen things up. You'll be posing like a pro in no time -- but of course, this is a one-time-only exclusive for a very special audience (your very lucky groom).
