I often get emails from women saying something to the effect of “I’m not as thin/young/curvy/pretty as the other women on your site.  Can I still do a boudoir session?”  I think these images prove the answer to that is a resounding “YES!”  Boudoir photography is for all women of all shapes, sizes, ages and ethnicity.  I love that as a society we are starting to become more open to seeing beauty in all of its different forms.  What matters most is being comfortable and confident in who you are.  In her day to day life, Nellie has a job where she’s not really able to dress up, so she took full advantage of this opportunity with a glam, forties retro look:

LOVE LOVE LOVE them!  Many thanks to Nellie for both the great shoot and for giving me permission to use the images.  Also, a big shout out to Ginger Mullins for her excellent job with the hair and makeup.
