Lucy had her images done in Calgary and her hair & makeup was done by Jackie Johnson.
What made you want to have boudoir photos taken?
I took some glamour shots when I was 16 that included hair and makeup with the photo shoot. It was also a milestone for me since I was turning sweet 16. I turned 30 this year which was another milestone for me. I wanted to find a photographer that specialized in taking sexy, classy photos that included hair and make up with the photo session. When I’m older I want to be able to look back at these photos and say “WOW I looked amazing when I was 30!” I also wanted to do something that got me out of my comfort zone, something I would never do. Looking back at the photos I took when I was 16 I looked much older than I do in these recent photos-which make me extremely happy!
How did you prepare for your boudoir session?
I went tanning, got my nails done, got a pedicure and had a hair appointment the day before. I wanted to make sure my hair was fresh (cut & color) for the shoot the next day. I had hard time finding lingerie I liked in the stores so I did some online shopping. I also wanted to wear outfits that you wouldn’t find at any lingerie stores in the city.
Who are your boudoir photos for?
These images are a gift for myself for turning 30 and a 10 year anniversary gift for my boyfriend.
Have you given your boyfriend the images yet, what did he think?
I let him look at my photos right away and pick out his favorites. Of course his favorite images are the ones with his bike helmet. He said I looked very hot and sexy.
What did you think of the experience of having the images done?
I was nervous at first but my nerves vanished as soon as I met Erica. She was very professional, personable, and easy to work with. I had so much fun and would do another photo session. I tell family and friends about the website and to seriously consider doing a photo shoot. It’s also a great gift idea for the one you love.
How do you feel about your boudoir photos?
I’m so happy and excited about them. I love looking at them and I can’t believe its actually me in the photos. I want to share them with everyone I know!
Which images are your favorites?
My favorite images are the ones with my boyfriend’s helmet, the photos where I’m wearing the black corset with leggings, and the “in between the sheet” ones.
Is there any other info or interesting story about your experience?
I enjoyed getting my hair and makeup done. It relaxed me before the shoot. Jackie, the makeup artist was amazing. She really knew how to accentuate my best facial features. I felt confident that my images would turn out great. Hair, makeup, outfits, all came together perfectly.
