If you’ve been following me for a while, you know one the pillars I stand on is that women should make it a practice to put themselves first. Recognize that putting yourself first doesn’t mean neglecting your spouse, children or other responsibilities. As a recovering people-pleaser, I can say the best thing I ever did […]

As a boudoir photographer, I have the privilege of working with strong, beautiful women every day. These women are brick-tough, enduring and overcoming so much in their lives. They are survivors, fighters, and champions. I have heard stories from my clients that have left me in awe of their strength and resilience. They have faced […]

Hey gorgeous! I want to talk about something that’s really important to me: why it’s crucial for women to put themselves first. I know that as women, we have a tendency to put the needs of others before our own. Whether it’s our partners, kids and other family members, it’s easy to get caught up […]

Every once in a while, there is woman who comes in to my Annapolis studio for her boudoir session and I just KNOW she’s doing this for alll the right reasons. This shoot, this special occasion is ALL. ABOUT. HER. These are the days that I live for. I pour so much of myself into […]

I love for my clients to write guest posts. They share with me what womanhood means to them and ultimately, I may ask for them to “put it in writing” so that I can share it with the world. One thing that I’ve learned in this business is that women need each other. Although we […]

As a professional boudoir photographer, I have had the privilege of working with countless amazing women who have all experienced the transformative power of boudoir photography. And I truly believe that every woman should have the opportunity to experience this intimate portrait experience at least once in her lifetime. So, what is boudoir photography and […]

As a boudoir photographer, I have the privilege of working with women of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds. And one thing that consistently stands out to me is the unique beauty and strength of each and every one of my clients. As women, we are constantly bombarded with messages about how we should look and […]

Negative self-image can be a pervasive and damaging force in our lives. It can hold us back from pursuing our goals and dreams, and it can cause us to doubt ourselves and our abilities. But it’s important to remember that it’s never too late to unlearning negative self-image and to start building a positive and […]

I was talking with my mentor early last week, when it dawned on me. This wasn’t an option, it was a calling. An unshakable feeling down to the very last cell in my body that I had to share my passion for helping women realize how beautiful and powerful they are. Far too many women […]

A boudoir photoshoot with us is not about lingerie, being naked, booty shots, or making you feel ‘exposed.’  It’s a lot about joy—true, raw, un-bound joy.  It’s about finding it, dancing with it, letting it flood through the cracks.   It’s about not taking anything too seriously–it’s about celebrating exactly who you are, in this moment.  […]

When I opened the doors to my boudoir business, I figured I’d play with poses and watch my clients live their best lives in gorgeous hair/makeup…but I never considered this would mean anything deeper than that. The women who came in to the studio would get in the chair would be so nervous that they […]

When I was 18 (oh so many moons ago), I started a blog called “Memoirs of an Army Brat” I would chronicle my daily thoughts and weekly adventures which, at that time, were plenty as I was already living on my own. From time to time, I also wrote about how I felt I was […]

Confidence doesn’t come from achieving the ‘perfect’ body. It comes from embracing the one you have.  Make it a practice not nit-pick, obsess, avoid the mirror, to cover yourself up. Life is far too short not to enjoy all that you have been blessed with. You don’t want to look back at all the time […]

If you’re anything like the beautiful women who have already had a session with me, you probably think you don’t have what it takes to go through with a boudoir shoot of your own. I promise: YOU DO! I totally get it.  I’m a wife and mom to three boys on top of being a […]

Allow me to reintroduce myself. I’m Veronica, your boudoir photographer. I’m intentional about practicing what I preach. These images are in celebration of my (upcoming) 40th birthday. I believe a woman should have body autonomy and the freedom to express herself in WHATEVER way she chooses. Women are powerful, beautiful, exquisite, intelligent, resilient and deserving. […]
