We have had a fabulous year and I am looking forward to all the wonderful tushies that I will have the opportunity to photograph in 2014!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Winter might not be quite the time that you’re thinking about taking off your clothes and posing for a photo session, but some of these pieces might just change your mind.
It’s been a while since I’ve done a lingerie post, so I figured it was about time. I have to confess though, this totally wasn’t supposed to be all about lace. My main theme was inspiration for winter boudoir sessions, but when I started browsing, I found myself to be super drawn to all of these gorgeous lace bra and panty sets in beautiful rich colors, so it ended up going in that direction. How’s a girl to resist?
What I love about a good  sexy bra and panty set for a photo session is that you can spend as much or as little as you want and still look fabulous. Check out the deep purple one from H&M below.
Also, while you might not wear lace undergarments every day, they’re a fun way to spice things up a bit, and you’ll likely get a lot more future use out of them than something like a corset or teddy. Winter is the perfect time for lace because you don’t need to worry about it showing through thinner summer fabrics.
Aside from all of the lace, I did find a couple of stunning and unique pieces that I’m totally swooning over. The first one is  this nightgown from ModCloth. The rich berry color and bow make me think holidays, but not in a cheesy  naughty Mrs. Claus sort of way (not that there’s anything wrong with that if that’s your thing).
And now, saving the best for last, this is from a local lingerie shop called Besos in Los Gatos. If I didn’t have other people to buy Christmas presents for, I’d run right out and buy this for myself and would be scheduling a photo session in it ASAP.
Feeling inspired? Ready to heat up these cold winter nights? Give us a call or shoot us an email to schedule a photo session today!

Welcome to another Tushie Tuesday! This one is an oldie but a goodie. From one of my first sessions in my first studio!
Frilled panties and goosebumps. Haha.
Enjoy the rest of your week everyone!
I was sorting through client images and found this lovely shot for today’s Tushy Tuesday photo. It has my old watermark but I really like this shot and was being lazy on doing a new re-size. Hahaha.
Guns and Red Satin- Sounds like a James Bond movie. LOL. Looking good Miss D!
Happy Tushy Tuesday, everyone!
 Anyone else feeling a little bombarded by big retailers this year? I guess I should probably get better with the “unsubscribe†button, but every day I get a good 25-50 emails from different stores touting all kinds of sales. Thankfully I have DVR, so I can skip most of the TV commercials, but I know they’re out there too.
What’s even more crazy is that my husband and I were at Best Buy the Friday BEFORE Thanksgiving and there was a tent with people camping outside for Black Friday deals. I’m not sure what kind of deals they were offering, but that just seemed plain old crazy to me. I love a good sale just as much (if not more) than the next guy, but I can’t think of a single sale that I’d give up a week of my life for.
Anyway, now that I have that out of the way. I do love the holiday season and the giving and receiving that comes along with it. For the last few years I’ve been doing a lot of shopping online and really love Etsy.
In case you’re not familiar, Etsy is an e-commerce site that focuses mainly on handmade and vintage goods. Since almost anyone can open up an Etsy shop, it’s a perfect place to support small businesses and to find some really unique stuff. Of course, the downside is that there’s a whole lot of garbage on Etsy too, but that’s always good for a few laughs.
If you haven’t finished shopping for the ladies on your list yet, and have already purchased a photo session with Boudoir Coterie, I highly recommend giving Etsy a gander. To make things easier for you, I’ve put together a guide with some fun , and relatively inexpensive, stuff I found in my own browsing. Enjoy!

Wow, can you believe it’s December already!? This year is flying by and I am busy booking a few last minute clients before wrapping up for the holidays. Now how about our first tush for the month?
Yup, this one will work. Happy Tuesday everyone! 🙂
Offer good through Cyber Monday– or until sessions sell out!
Welcome to another installment of Tushy Tuesday.
Today we have a sweet and sexy image of the lovely Miss L. It reminds me of a lazy warm summer Sunday morning. However, today I am cold and even have my cozy blanket wrapped around my legs. I’m not complaining but I kind of want to hand her a warm flannel sheet. Hahaha.
Have a wonderful week and Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 🙂
P.S. I am thankful for so many amazing clients who are willing to brave their insecurities, brush of that inner voice stating “when I lose 10 more lbs” and trust me behind the camera. I am also very thankful that so many allow me to show off their gorgeous images!
 The pages of this blog are often filled with all kinds of gorgeous lingerie, but this is the time of year when my appreciation grows for straight-up cozy pajamas.
My husband and I left for Hawaii on November 3, which was just a few days after Halloween and was also the day we turned the clocks back. Apparently while we were gone all of the Christmas elves were out and it became full-on holiday season. It’s time for Christmas music, holiday lights, and red cups at Starbucks. It’s also this time of year that my 87-year-old Grammy starts pestering everyone in the family for a Christmas list.
I’ve been making Christmas lists for Grammy ever since I was old enough to circle stuff in a catalogue. As a kid I loved making the annual Christmas list. Grammy loves gift-giving more than anyone I know, and she always bought everything on my list. As an adult it’s a bit more troubling. What’s reasonable to ask for? What stores are in a ten-mile radius of her house? What can she buy on QVC?
Each year it seems like pajamas always make the list. Gap Body and Victoria’s Secret are usually the winners since Grammy has both stores nearby and the prices are fairly reasonable. While pajamas feel like a kind of generic grandma gift, I love getting them. They’re not something I typically buy for myself, and having a brand-new pair of Christmas pajamas makes me feel like a kid again.
Here are a few favorites I found while browsing for my Christmas list this year. A couple of these are a bit more of a splurge (I’m talking to you gorgeous and cozy Anthropologie robe!), which I won’t be asking Grammy for, but it’s always fun to dream isn’t it?
The flannel slip was actually on my Christmas list last year and I love it. While it seems like an impractical piece of clothing (kind of like that short-sleeved pea coat I own), it’s perfect for Northern California nights. It reminds me of the soft and cozy like the flannel pajamas I had as a kid growing up on the chilly East Coast, but isn’t too hot, and is much cuter.
This year, I’m going with the Fireside Thermal Sleep-Shirt from Victoria’s Secret. I like the idea of being warm and cozy on top, but my legs always get hot in bed, so it’s perfect.
Have you squeezed a Tushy today?
I thought I’d invite a guy along in today’s Tushy Tuesday. Hahaha. I’m not sure who’s luckier, him, or her?
Now since this is a couple shot I would like to offer a special discount on a couples shoot. Normally there is an additional $200 added to couples sessions do all the extras that go into a couples shoot however if you mention this blog post, I will waive that fee! This offer is good until Nov 30. Wouldn’t this be the coolest joint gift for Christmas? It would definitely make Santa blush. 😉
I also want to remind everyone of our Mini Beauty sessions. Spaces are limited. I have never run a special like this and it will not likely happen again so get it while you can!
And of course, enjoy your Tushy Tuesday!
