Professional models are always fun to shoot, but my some of my favorite people to photograph are regular people. People who never though "they" could come across just as beautiful, just as sexy and surprise themselves in the end. This was exactly the case with Brandee. Cool girl, proud mom, always smiling and full of energy. She came to the table with her own thoughts and ideas. She knew what she wanted and only needed my pointer finger to press the trigger.......ok and a couple lights. Although she knew what she wanted, it doesn't mean there we no butterfly for her. Never having been in a boudoir shoot and showing yourself to someone you barely know can be a little scarey, understandably. After a short chat and reassuring her, she forgot I was even around!

Sometimes you just need to order something different off the menu. If you order the same sandwich every time you visit your favorite eatery, you aren't having a different experience or enjoying other options that are available to you. I was in need of something different for Jesselah Harris-McGrath. She is a beautiful lady that can kill a bass guitar, a set of heels and stun you with a smile, but I already knew that. I wanted to take her out of her own comfort zone and capture her unlike she has ever experienced before. I gave her nothing...no props, no makeup artist, no sexy location...nothing. Jesselah doesn't fail.
