Read MoreWhy did you become a photographer?
I studied art in college, but I put aside all artistic pursuits when I needed to get a "real job." Ten years later, I got a job answering the phones at a boudoir photography studio. When I accepted the job, I had never heard of boudoir photography. But I quickly learned about the power of photography when I watched clients have life-changing experiences in front of the camera. After working at that boudoir studio for three years, I decided to open my own studio. I have photographed nearly 2,000 women there since 2018 - and loved every minute of it!
