Ms. Gatsby - Winnipeg Empowerment Photography
When Kayla gave me full license to design her session, I knew exactly what I wanted. An amazing Great Gatsby themed session! Forever I have wanted to create a headpiece that was covered in jewels and broaches, so this was my chance to make it happen! I partnered with our friends at Noir Cosmetic Studio to achieve the epic hair and makeup look for Kayla. Regardless of the era, I love to photograph the strength in women...the bad asses that created their destiny and lived their best lives and Ms. Gatsby was no different. Here's what Kayla had to say about her session:"I let Teri brainstorm an idea for my editorial shoot, my only request was for it to be sparkly. As always she delivered. The shoot was sparkly, but also very glam and elegant. I'm so glad we did a 30's theme. The shoot itself was quicker than a boudoir shoot but still a blast. There was still a glam squad to get my hair and makeup on point, and Teri provided the outfits. I think the best part of photoshoots, and selfies, is allowing yourself to be who you want to be. When I look at the photos from our editorial session, I see a woman, maybe a movie star. These photos remind me that I am graceful, and beautiful, and fun, and unique. Thank you Teri for once again empowering me and giving me a chance to embrace myself as myself."[audio mp3="https://www.terihoffordphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Crystal-Ball-Instrumental.mp3"][/audio]
An Angel in Florida ~ International Boudoir Photographer
I am finally getting around to finishing up all my travel stories and I'm so excited to share this one of Miss Angel. I was introduced to her from Dawn (whom you will be seeing later on the blog) while I was staying at her house, and miss Angel came to play and did not disappoint. She let me dress her up in my spangliest jacket ever (a sweet find from the consignment shop in Fort Pierce!) and even got in the pool for me. I wanted to edit these ones in a bit more fun, bright way seeing as she is from Miami and she definitely brought the heat.
Making Magic ~ Winnipeg Boudoir Photographer
I really don't have too much to write about this particular session, aside from the fact that whenever I get the chance to work with Raissa & Kelly, it always turns out like magic. These 2 babes helped make my little rave/fairy/70s shoot come to life with the epic hair, the styling, and of course the modeling! If you have ever desired to feel like a sparkly goddess, feel free to check out our specialty sessions!!
SHE BROUGHT ME OSTRICH FEATHERS ~ Winnipeg Boudoir Photography
One of my favorite parts about being a boudy photographer, is that I get to meet all sorts of women who are amazing at what they do. Miss Dakota Tramp (her stage name) is no exception to this and her and I just clicked, so I am certain you will be seeing a lot of her (she tells me she has a huge sparkly wardrobe!!!). When she sent me an email telling me that she had a handmade OSTRICH FEATHER, GLASS BEADED OUTFIT(!!) I did a little squeal! I have been wanting to shoot something epic like that since I feel in love with Ellen Von Unwerth! In addition to that outfit, she also had an ostrich feather hemmed robe given to her from one of her besties and she rocked it out in the studio! Take a look at some of the magic we made and read about her experience shooting with me! She describes her session as: Glorious, empowering, and wonderful Teri's fantastic direction and positive vibe made this more than a photo shoot, it was an empowering and incredibly positive experience. From our first email exchanges to the reveal of my final photos, my expectations were exceeded, when they were already high to begin with based on exceptional recommendations. Can't say enough about how much I loved our shoot and the finished photos. Posing and modelling does NOT come naturally! Teri's bubbly personality and easy to follow direction made me feel comfortable and confident, which lead to photos that make me look like a for real movie star. You deserve to feel like a goddess, and Teri can help bring that out for you.
