Bridal Boudoir Shoot | North Jersey & NYC Boudoir Photographer

5 Oct

A friend of mine got married earlier this year and wanted to surprise her then-future-hubby with something super special. She contacted me, and after a quick chat, we’d scheduled her a boudoir shoot!

I know a lot of brides-to-be are nervous about doing things like this, but it’s not nearly as scary as one might think!

When we met she already had a few outfits picked out that she felt most comfortable (and gorgeous) in. I helped set the room a bit and suggested some accessories she might interact with, like pretty pillows and blankets. The whole atmosphere was relaxed, fun, and very natural; and I got some great shots! I just love boudoir photography – shooting in a very light, subtle way that focuses on the natural beauty of the person on the other side of lens.

Getting married soon? Why not surprise your spouse-to-be with a boudoir shoot! Present them with a framed shot for their nightstand or something larger – this bride created a book for her husband as a newlywed gift. Love it!

Boudoir photo shoots are available to all of my brides, including discounted packages for the entire bridal party with a confirmed session. Please contact me for prices and more information! brittany (at) cloudfishstudios.com

A Natural Beauty | Philadelphia Maternity Photographer

25 Apr
With so many adorable babies and radiant mommies-to-be gracing the other side of my lens, I just couldn’t help but share another wonderful maternity portrait session!
This session brought me back to something I originally played with in college – figure studies. By focusing on lines and curves, light and shadows, one can create a really stunning artistic portrait, and I knew the second I scheduled this shoot that this was something I wanted to revisit!
Our session took place at her beautiful, sun-kissed apartment in Center City Philadelphia. Although a little nervous at first, this new mommy-to-be was really a natural in front of the camera! Not only is she beautiful to begin with, but the combination of the pregnancy glow and perfect setting made her absolutely stunning.
I really love this series of photos, and I’m so happy I was able to create these as a keepsake for this mommy. Congrats again!
