Detour

On the way up to our outdoor shoot yesterday, we had a little detour when my car got a bit of a flat tire! Someone was nice enough to wave us down and tell us that the tire was low, but since our location is out in the middle of nowhere, we had to just pull over and wait for Triple A to arrive. However, while we were waiting, Marissa grabbed my sign and stood on the side of the highway for about 5 minutes. I thought it was cute so I snapped a photo, but I didn't believe anyone would actually stop (I think our sign was a bit too small!). And then, to my surprise, this truck pulled over to save the day!!! I was so excited and SOOO thankful! So to this awesome guy (good samaritan!) who pulled over to help... wherever you are... THANK YOU!!!! :)

Workshop: Outdoor Shoot

This was such a fun day! For the optional extra day of shooting, we headed up to our secluded outdoor location to get some images with a different look. Marissa and I absolutely love shooting boudoir sessions outdoors, because they have a bit more of a "fashion" feel... anyway, we had a blast!

Upgrade...

If you received your copy of our Bad-Ass Training Guide... and you'd like to upgrade to get the whole she'bang... send us an email (info@boucherphotography.com), and we'll tell you how! (Note: our introductory prices are only good through the month of January; starting Feb. 1st, our products will go back to their regular prices!)

Workshop: Day 2

For day 2 of The Boudoir Divas' Workshop, we demonstrated our entire post-processing workflow, from downloading to producing the final product. With our entire workshop, we really wanted to set aside plenty of time for our workshop gals to actually implement all of the things we discussed. So after we demonstrated our workflow, we split up and had everyone work on a few of their images from the studio shoot yesterday. We really want everyone to leave this workshop with a solid starting point for their boudoir portfolio, and judging by the awesome images these photographers captured, I think we can say that it was a success! :) We'll post a few of those images sometime this week...

Workshop: Day 1

Wow, what a whirlwind day! Summed up in three words, here's a quick summary of Day 1 of The Boudoir Divas Workshop... shooting, shooting, and shooting!!! Marissa and I had a lot of fun demonstrating our sets, posing, and overall shooting style, and then we let our workshop gals (5 awesome photographers!) have free reign of our studio/sets/models to get some practice shooting (and also to build their portfolio). Everyone did awesome, it was such a great day! We can't wait to look through everyone's images to see some of the shots. And, of course, we have to say a HUGE thank you to our amazing models!!! Missy, Adriana, and Desiree... we can't thank you enough. You are seriously the best models in the world (our workshop attendees really lucked out in getting to shoot with you lovely ladies today!) We are VERY thankful for your willingness to participate, thank you so much! Here are a few shots from our shooting demonstration with Missy today (isn't she gorgeous?!?) :)

Guess what arrived today??!?!?!!!
