I am so excited to kick off a series of blog posts featuring the ladies from my recent boudoir marathon in Tulsa, Oklahoma!
The longer I’ve been away from Oklahoma, the more I’ve grown to love (and miss) it. We do things a little slower in Oklahoma, but with a level of care and grace that you don’t find just anywhere. So, I was pretty excited to host and enjoy a full 2-day boudoir marathon in Oklahoma, knowing just the group of ladies I wanted to work with and what would make this event memorable for them. A lot of these ladies were close friends or family, miss Brittany included.
Brittany is my country-loving, cowboy boot wearing, fiery red-haired cousin! We grew up riding four wheelers, swimming and watching fireflies on summer nights, and camping in the field by her house. She was always a lot more daring, a lot more “country” than I am, so when she decided to do a boudoir session, I was super excited about the idea of doing a country theme. I knew that Brittany would absolutely rock it, and of course she did!
"I was extremely nervous beforehand,” Brittany admits. "I had a baby 8 months ago, and my body is not the same nor does it look the same as it did before. Allowing someone to see your flaws on a personal level is very nerve racking. Emily had me start my shoot with an outfit I was most comfortable in. This set the mood for my comfort level. Once we started the shoot, I forgot all about my flaws and had a good time.”
Brittany did an awesome job on picking outfits that photographed well and fit her style perfectly. I was especially a fan of the emerald green lingerie set from Victoria's Secret, which looked amazing with her red hair!
How does she feel about the end result? "I personally feel that every woman should have a day to feel amazing about themselves!" Brittany says. "Emily is the one that made that happen for me, and I am very grateful for that."
And I'm so glad you decided to do it, Britt! <3
