When this client realized she was the winner of my Giveaway Photo Shoot – she was immediately excited… and nervous!!

Feeling all those nerves rush in for your session is so normal! I pinky-promise I have intentionally thought through every step of your process. From posing you from head to toe, to reminding you to avoid a spray tan 2 weeks before your session. I will walk you through every moment, long before you arrive at the studio.

My client said that her favorite part of the day was getting pampered in our glam chair. Yes please!! American Beauty absolutely takes all our sessions to the next level. She meets you in the studio when you show up with bare face and open heart, and she will make you feel immediately at ease. She also knows exactly how to do apply makeup that is specifically designed for my shooting & editing style. So when you see photos in my portfolio, just know you’re getting the same intentional treatment.

After hair and makeup, we made our way into the studio area to start shooting. I always sit with my clients and walk them through styling & outfit selection, so you feel like a freakin’ super model before we start shooting. You’ll feel confident in our outfit choices and know you’re killing it.

My giveaway photo shoot winner chose a lacy black bodysuit for her lingerie.

There’s something SO classic and timeless about lace black pieces. It looked absolutely bangin’ on her, and accentuated all her curves. We then pivoted to a black two-piece set and played around with a white button-up to add variety to her gallery.

If you’re wanting to add a non-lingerie element to your final images, a white button-up is a great option. It is flirty and sexy. Adding a “I-just-threw-on-my-boyfriend’s-work-shirt” playfulness to your pictures. We can use it on top of lingerie or for your topless shots (or both!) So many options!

This giveaway photo shoot was just one for the books, and I’m so grateful she trusted me with her boudoir experience and showed up in my Sioux Falls studio ready to get that confidence boost.

Make sure you scroll to the bottom, you’ll see how much she absolutely slayed in this session! If you’re on the fence about booking your shoot, take inspiration from her! From nerves to confidence- she rode the roller coaster of emotions, took the leap and walked away feeling like she was on cloud 9.
