Miss K’s Boudoir Session – Houston Boudoir Photography
November 25, 2009 | Filed Under Boudoir Photography, Houston, Studio Sessions | 3 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
Miss K is having a destination wedding at the end of the year, and decided to surprise her sweetie with a boudoir album full of awesome, yummy goodness! She was gracious enough to give me permission to share a few of our favorites! We did a session at the studio, and had such a great time!
In Miss K’s own words – from a comment she left over at the wedding photography site, “Christine just shot my boudoir shoot and it was AMAZING!!! She made me feel SO comfortable…and the pictures are beautiful; very “soft and sweet” yet sexy. Thanks Christine!!”
I just loved that she incorporated things that she knows he loves into the session. They are both fans of the Buffalo Bills, so she brought a jersey along, he loves the red shoes she is wearing, so she was sure to include them, and he plays soccer, so she brought a soccer jersey as well!
Aren’t those shoes awesome? They are her shoes for her wedding day! I love the purple – they are going to be such a gorgeous accent! Thank you again to Miss K for such an awesome, fun session!
Interested in doing a boudoir session? Be sure to check out our Holiday Specials! -and- if you book a date in 2009-2010 by Nov. 30, 2009 you will get an EXTRA $100 off the shoot! Ready to set it up? Contact me today!

The White Sheet Sessions!
June 8, 2009 | Filed Under Austin, Boudoir Photography, Houston, Special Offers, Texas | 3 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
In the past year of Boudoir sessions, I’ve discovered that some of my absolute favorite photos are the most simple, the most pure – ones that involve nothing more than a white sheet or towel. No outfits. Just beauty. (Makeup in the above photo by Jennifer Aronson.)
In honor of this, I’ve decided to add a White Sheet Session to my package lineup!

Options available to upgrade your album to the top of the line albums that we offer, to add more pages to your book, digital files of magazine retouched images or prints.
Special Price:
$400 for album -or- the DVD with print release (normally $800)

Read all the details below about ALL of the Boudoir Sessions options offered! Of course, you can opt to have the white sheet be one of your outfits if you choose to do one of our full sessions!

Ms. E’s Maternity Session – Boudoir Inspired Photography, Houston TX
March 11, 2009 | Filed Under Boudoir Photography, Houston, Studio Sessions, Texas | 3 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
I’ve been offering boudoir sessions for eight months now, and in that time I’ve had a lot of sessions that are somehow related to babies — several of my clients have talked about how they are trying to get pregnant. One of my clients was just a few days pregnant when we did her session – she didn’t even know it yet. Ms. E came to me shortly after she found out she was pregnant and asked if she could do a boudoir session because she wanted to capture how she looked before her baby was born.
I immediately asked her if she would be willing to pose for me when she was closer to her due date, and I was thrilled when she agreed! For a long time, I didn’t get maternity photography. Why would anyone want that? Then I realized, in part thanks to my AMAZING boudoir clients, that every single woman is beautiful. Pregnant women truly do radiate a special light though. They are just stunning.
Ms. E called me when she reached the 30 week mark and we set up a session time. It worked out that the only day that we were both free was right after the open house this weekend, so we pulled out all the stops on Sunday and did our shoot.
We had such a great time. I joked that in the future, I need to set up a “Bootie to Belly to Baby” package, photographing boudoir through maternity and then the newborn session too. Oh, who am I kidding – it wasn’t a joke. I’ve already got dibs on her newborn photos! I can’t wait for the baby to arrive in a few weeks! (You’ll have to watch for her over on the regular blog.)
Let me know if you would like to book a maternity session with a little boudoir flare!
Laughter is the Most Fun! Boudoir Photography in Houston, Texas
January 15, 2009 | Filed Under Uncategorized | 3 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
I always try to find something that will make us laugh at our boudoir session. I have my arsenal of stupid jokes – I can never remember jokes, so the ones I do remember are all very lame and therefore hysterical. Fortunately, Mrs. L liked to laugh just as much as I did, so we had *so* much fun at her session!
She opted to do her session at her house, so we could incorporate things from their everyday life into the shoot. It was a ton of fun! Especially when we started imagining what the neighbors must be thinking if they were looking through the windows. I end up standing on things to get higher angles, laying on the floor – whatever it takes to get the shot. Combine that with a lot of lingerie? Yeah, the laughter is pretty much guaranteed!
People often ask me if their photos have to be up on the blog. It absolutely is not a requirement for any session that I shoot — and every photo that I post here I post only with permission. Mrs. L didn’t want any photos that showed her face to be shared on the site, which I completely respect. She did approve these photos though!

Sessions are available during the week, with limited weekend sessions available. 50% of your selected package price is due at the time of booking to hold your date; the balance is due 1 week before your session.

Sneak Peeks Waiting to be Unwrapped – Houston Boudoir Photography
December 21, 2008 | Filed Under Boudoir Photography, Houston | 2 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
I have so many fabulous photos to share! But I can’t share them until after Christmas, as I don’t want to ruin the holiday surprises! There are some fabulous albums waiting under trees to be unwrapped!
Matter of fact, our holiday specials were so well received, I’m going to extend them through Valentine’s Day! There are just a few weekend sessions left, plus weekday sessions as well. Not in Houston? I’ll travel anywhere for very reasonable rates. Gather up your friends and you can split the travel costs!
Here is a sneak peek from one of the studio sessions of what is soon to come – thanks so much to Mrs. K for giving me permission to share these!
Miss M – Boudoir Session in Austin, Texas
September 30, 2008 | Filed Under Austin, Boudoir Photography | 2 Comments | Add to Kirtsy!
Back in September, before Hurricane Ike decided to drop in to Houston for a visit – leaving me without power for 14 days – I went to Austin for a boudoir session with Miss M. She is getting married in October, and what better way to support a member of our troops than with a set of pinup photos of his wife! On top of that, Miss M has worked hard to lose weight during his most recent deployment, so these shots were also a celebration of her hard work between Weight Watchers and Jazzercise. We all agreed she needs to be their new representative, because she is so inspiring!
We held the session at a house, and we were blessed with fabulous light for it! We had a ton of fun – it is hard to get the steamy, sultry shots when you can’t stop laughing!
