When looking through Polyvore this week for my inspiration, I couldn’t help but notice all the posts about a wool coat. Have you seen these? They look so warm and cozy; great for the chilly fall days and cooler winter days. What I really like is how versatile they are, and how they apparently come in a variety of colors.

This green coat is so beautiful. The color is so light and screams Spring, which can help pull you through the upcoming dark winter days. It looks stunning paired with black trousers.

This dark maroon coat compliments the soft pink of this dress very nicely, and I love the black booties paired with it.

Another way to wear a colored wool coat is casually, maybe for a calm evening out. The yellow of this coat looks great with the chosen leopard boots. You could even pair with a pair of leopard pumps!

However you would wear your colored wool coat, don’t forget to accessorize properly! The perfect pair of earrings or necklace can make your outfit, and that is no different when wearing a beautiful coat.

Halloween is in one week! I know so many people that go to, or host, a Halloween party. It can be hard to come up with a costume that is an original idea, and also not on the revealing side (unless you want it to be!).

Browsing through I saw quite a few good ideas making me wish I had done this post last night instead of after my shopping excursion this morning.

Some cute ideas I saw that would be easy to do on your own are things like different animal costumes, Disney princesses or a villain.

This “Sean the Sheep” costume is adorable!

A Butterfly Costume would be right up my alley

This Fox costume is so unique!

If you know me, you know my love for Disney so it only makes sense I share a few with you.
Eve is my favorite! And how easy would that be to do yourself?!

Minnie Mouse is always a classic costume
60-Second Style: Disney Character Costume
Either of these costumes would be easy to put together.
//I'm positive we'll get lost//

 

Eeekkk!!! I am in love with this idea.

And another personal favorite,

Cruella De Vil

 

I hope I’ve inspired you a bit to think outside the packaged costume and put something together yourself! Keep browsing through the ideas I gave you and I know you’ll come up with your own great idea. I’ve give you a week to get your costume together, that’s plenty of time! I wanna see what you come up with.
Have a happy and safe Halloween!

Only SIX Weeks Left! | San Jose Bay Area Holiday Photography Gift Creator

Give the gift of you.

I can’t hide it, I absolutely HATE putting out Holiday booking reminders, especially since they should really start in September. Blah! I believe this is because I cringe upon seeing Halloween and Christmas decorations in August, even though they are my favorite holidays and I go crazy with decorating for both. Thus, sitting down to design promos in August makes me spazzy. Haha. Unfortunately though, I cannot change the time frame of sessions and how long they take from start to finish in order for you to have your amazing gift in hand before Dec 25th.

Sooooooo, if you have been thinking about gifting your significant other(and who are we kidding, it’s really a fabulous gift for yourself) then now is the time, ladies!

I promise, you will love it no matter how nervous you are when you arrive! We’ll make you look and feel like a supermodel. 🙂

I’ve been thinking for awhile doing a post on rompers. Now, they are not something that I feel I can pull off, but I do admire the girls that wear them. They look so cute and I have to admit I’m a bit envious. Recently a client came in for a second shoot (Yes! Return client!!) and she brought a beautiful, coral colored romper and I knew that was my cue to do this post.

Rompers are light weight and perfect for a hot summer, or fall, day. They would look super cute on date night as well.

There are so many different styles you can choose from. A romper would be a great choice if you aren’t comfortable wearing lingerie for your session. We can still glam it up and do some sexy poses.
Think about picking one up for your closet ladies, and bring it in for your shoot!!

October Booking Special: LIMITED | Best San Jose Boudoir Photography

It’s that time of year…

With the Holiday Season fast approaching I am already feeling the spirit to GIVE! For each client who books a session with a Dec 25th deadline, I will gift you a Goodie Bag filled with many of my favorite beauty products!

That’s right, over $70 worth of my daily MUST HAVES just for booking!

From my favorite Laura Geller Eye and Lip Spackle to L’Oreals Gel Liner and LOTS of E.L.F goodies too(but only the tried and true!)

Not everything is pictured but here is the run down of goodies:

â–ª Laura Geller Lip and Eye Spackle
â–ª L’Oreal Valumonous Mascara
â–ª L’Oreal Gel Liner + My personal favorite angle brush for easy application
â–ª Coastal Eye Shadow Palette
â–ª High Definition Powder(A staple in our studio)
â–ª Coconut Moisture wipes( My VERY favorite and amazing for makeup removal!)
â–ª Lash curler
â–ª Under Eye Primer
â–ª Lip Gloss

But wait, that’s not all, (said in my best cheesy infomercial voice) there’s also some great package add-on bonuses!

The majority of my clients choose to customize their packages at their reveal by upgrading albums, adding on images and digital files or purchasing wall art, like a gorgeous 16x 24 canvas for their bedroom. That’s why I would also like to give an order add-on bonus for each package purchased for Holiday delivery.

Mademoiselle- $100 spending bonus
Contessa- $200 spending bonus
Dutchess- $300 spending bonus

But Danea, “What’s the catch?” There is no catch… errr… but, spaces are limited. I only have 6, 4 available session left for Oct-Nov!(P.S. This info was sent out to VIP newsletter folks last week and two sessions were snatched up!)

And now for the lovely fine print:
No substitutions in the Goodie Bag, it is what it is. Mascara and Liner are both in black. All colors as shown. No cash value. Goodie Bag will be delivered with product.
Package spending bonus may be used at the time of the scheduled reveal only. Spending bonus may not be used as a discount towards package price. No cash value on the spending bonus.

Give the gift of you!

It’s all about the perfect gift, but trust me when I say, you will love it just as much as he will, if not more!

I promise, you will love the whole experience, not just the final images.

You’ve probably seen me mention “statement necklace” a few times and maybe you are wondering what exactly I’m talking about. This is something that Danea taught me, and now I’m going to pass this wonderful knowledge on to you.

A statement necklace is something more than just a chain and a charm. It will be a piece that might be bigger than you’ve worn before, but once added to an outfit it can change the whole look. It can help to make a dress “dressier”, or it can help transform your look from day to night.

There are many online shops you can find statement pieces at. Some of my favorites are Francesca’s (they have their own category for statement necklaces!), and Kohl’s. We all know Kohl’s is always having a sale so you can pick up some pieces at great prices. I’ve even found a few on clearance for around $6.

These are some of my favorites from Francesca’s. They have a store location in Los Gatos and in Palo Alto.

Of course a colored necklace can be a great choice as well.

 You can find a really great piece of jewelry almost anywhere you shop. Keep your eyes open and look around! I hope this has inspired you to invest in at least one necklace that glam up your wardrobe a bit. And make sure you bring your favorite one with you when you come in to see us for your boudoir shoot!

Fashion Friday | Santa Cruz Bay Area Photographer

Hi ladies! Devon here with this weeks Fashion Friday. I’m so excited to share some ideas with you today. And actually I’m going to be sharing them with you every week as I’ll now be authoring all the Fashion Friday posts.

Today I thought it would be nice to show some examples of the outfits Danea suggested for the new 2015 Summer Special.

Danea’s first suggestion was a little black dress. Who doesn’t have at least one LBD in their closet? I know I have at least 3! Everyone loves a little black dress because it helps us feel a bit sexy and a bit sassy.

 

Little Black Dress

Don’t forget your favorite stiletto’s and that statement piece of jewelry. If your shoes aren’t black that’s ok. Who doesn’t love a pop of color with a black dress.

Next up we have the gowns. We all have at least one fancy dress that we wore to that wedding and now it just sits in the closet gathering dust?! Short, long, tea length, whatever yours looks like, if it makes you feel good then bring it!

Gown

 

You know that one pair of jeans you have? THAT ONE PAIR that fits so well it hugs every curve of your body and you make you feel amazing. We wanna see them! Your favorite jeans will look great paired with your favorite blouse and some cute ankle booties.

I came across this pin on Pinterest (I’m addicted!) and thought this was a great time to pass this information along to you. The tips are pretty helpful, but of course do what you feel looks best for you and your body type. You can read the full article here.

I hope this helps you ladies plan your outfits for the Summer Special. I know what’s going through your head right now, “My jeans would look great with that blouse in my closet and I have the perfect shoes”. Call us today and show them off!
