Why get a good night sleep before your shoot!!!!

  It might sound like a   myth  that's being peddled on a late-night infomercial, but eight hours of sleep really can help you look and feel your best. Why? It comes down to what happens in your body when you drift off. Your Body Pumps Out Healing Hormones. You Wake Up Less Puffy You’ll Smile More. While you’re sleeping, your body—and your skin—are hard at work healing themselves. During the deeper phases of sleep, your body produces growth hormone, which repairs daily damage from things like sun exposure and pollution and creates new cells so you wake up looking brighter, fresher, and more vibrant. That’s why bedtime can be a great time to apply a hardworking  night cream  to accelerate the restorative process. Your body also dispatches its water deliverymen as you snooze, sending moisture where it’s needed and getting rid of the excess. Cut this process short, and you’re more likely to end up with bags and obvious  wrinkles . Skimping on rest al...

Erotica Vs. Boudoir

  For me,  erotica  is about the beauty of fantasy and engaging in people’s sexual fantasies for their own personal pleasure. My desire has been to create and produce elegant, tasteful and arousing images together with  erotic  stories, and an elegant  erotic  photography gallery that women and couples would find acceptable and pleasurable. Boudoir:  a woman's bedroom or private room. Erotica :   literature or art intended to arouse sexual desire. As you can see just from the definition of boudoir, it leaves so much to the imagination! As each one of us are different so will your boudoir experience! I decided to write this a while ago and just needed to define, for me, and this studio how we will separate boudoir from our erotica.
