San Diego Boudoir Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to THE BOUDOIR DIVAS' San Diego Blog!

HI LADIES!!! THE BOUDOIR DIVAS SAN DIEGO (formerly known as WOMAN CAPTURED) is a full-service boudoir studio that has become Southern California's premier boudoir studio in just a few short years. We absolutely adore that our job allows women to do something a little out of their character and gives them the chance to feel like a SUPERMODEL for a day, with a gorgeous photo album as a lifelong token to cherish.

The Boudoir Divas San Diego is a studio made up of eight fabulous women, and we absolutely have a blast working together. We'd all probably admit that we have a dream job, and we can't wait to share some of the fun with you. Visit our website for more info about our studio and your photo shoot! www.TheBoudoirDivas.com

Looking for a past client who’s not afraid to share her story!

Happy Holidays from The Boudoir Divas Crew

Well, I suppose this post is a little late, but come on now, we were too busy making sure every client got thier gifts in time to wrap them and put them under the tree!  We hope you all had an amazing Christmas and an wish you joy in celebrating a brand new year. Let’s make it a good one!

The pic above is from our cozy studio team Christmas party. I think we all really enjoyed being able to relax together and talk, especially knowing that every thing was done and that our break was to come! (We will be back in the studio on the 2nd.)

Chelsea’s Supermodel Photo Shoot on Video!

Share

Chelsea is so, so cool. Here is why… she flew into Cali to have a boudoir shoot done by yours truly, she bought most of her amazing outfits on Pinupgirlclothing.com , she added a “Cinema Short” to her Supermodel Package, she is comfortable in her own skin, AND she let us show her boudoir video with you. Thanks Chelsea!

December 20, 2011 - 10:47 pm Chelsea McGowan - Oh.My.Gosh. I just watched this TWICE! I'm so in love... I feel so gorgeous! Marissa, you're an inspiration and a genius and SO so SO good at what you do. Thank you, a million times over, for this gift. I can't imagine a day where I'm not going to want to watch this! :)

December 21, 2011 - 1:14 pm Hannah - Chelsea is one of my dear friends and I can't tell her enough how beautiful she is. You guys did a great job capturing her sassiness. She looks absolutely amazing!!!

December 21, 2011 - 4:51 pm Annie - WOW. Chelsea is one of my longest and dearest friends and I love she got the opportunity to do this and feel so good about herself. She is an amazing person and these photos are SMOKIN!!!

Give your man a hint…

Share

The holidays are almost here!!!!!!

So… NOW is the time for you to drop a HINT to your man that you want a Boudoir Divas’ gift card to get a shoot in 2012! Not sure exactly how to get it across to him? Never fear… we’ve created a fool-proof way to drop a not-so-subtle hint.

First option is a Facebook album that we’ve created to help you push him in the right direction.
1. Go “LIKE” our Boudoir Divas’ Facebook Page

2. Look through THIS PHOTO ALBUM on our page, and decide on what you want to ask Santa for Christmas.

3. Tag your guy on that photo, and let him do the rest. All he needs to do is CALL US (858.485.0443), and we will walk him through what to do. He can pay with a credit card over the phone, and we will package your gift card all cute, and have it ready and waiting for him!

Or, if you’re not on FB… here’s another option for you. Simply copy & paste the WEB ADDRESS for one of the images below (whichever option YOU want to receive!) – and then send it to your guy in an email!

If you want to get ONE PRODUCTION for Christmas, copy & paste this link & send to your man:

http://www.sandiegoboudoir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1-production.jpg

If you want to get TWO PRODUCTIONS for Christmas, copy & paste this link & send to your man:

http://www.sandiegoboudoir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/2-productions.jpg

If you want to get THREE PRODUCTIONS for Christmas, copy & paste this link & send to your man:

A deeply personal, truly unique gift

Share

We just received this email from a client yesterday, and it gave me chills when I read it! Thank you so much for your kind words, Susan… and thanks for letting us share your experience here on our blog. xoxo, The Divas

“OMG Erin!! :-D I got my album and CD’s in this afternoon’s mail! You guys r-o-c-k in getting your work out so damn fast (less than 24 hrs, sheesh!)!! I was once again, stunned speechless as I beheld my beautiful photo album in my hands. I felt, and still feel, choked up in gratitude, appreciation and sincere thankfulness. Emotions that are welling up from the soul because of giving me such a deeply personal and truly unique gift that no other person has. Your lovely team that day has shown me a beautiful side to myself that I’ve never seen. And now that you’ve allowed me to peer behind the heavy curtains of self doubt and dancing threads of insecurities, a mystical force of confidence has seared itself into my character which allows me to fight those horrible thoughts, perhaps forever! :-) If I were to wish any one thing for all of womankind, is to spend the afternoon with your girls, such as the wonderous day that I had, all for the sake of “gifting” unto them what I have been blessed to have received. Please, please, please pass onto the entire staff my heartfelt thank you! ♥ Forever stronger, Susan”

A fun, quick way to make your skin glow for your photo shoot…

Share

I saw this Kandee Johnson video (Erin introduced me to her and now I am hooked!) about exfoliating and giving your skin a nice glow. I tried it, and I even got my hubby Weston to do it with me (!), and she is so right, it really does make your skin soft and glow. I wouldn’t suggest doing it the morning of your shoot in case your skin doesn’t react well but perhaps the day before for a little skin boost. It left my skin feeling so soft and fresh and all you need are lemons and sugar. Easy, peeesey.

Share

November 16, 2011 - 10:15 pm Katie - I love Kandee! Her videos rock!!! I do this trick all the time since I've seen the video. It helped my skin tone even out. Beats spending money on expensive products!

Exciting! Do you want your gift sooner!?

Share

We rarely ever have cancellations, and we are bummed of course, BUT this might be great for you! We have gals call daily who want to get in sooner than later and we
usually have to book them about 6 weeks out because we are so busy, so these spots will book up asap! Please call to see if one of these slots will fit your sched!

Imagination mixed with romance. An “Editorial Shoot” by The Boudoir Divas with Tenley.

Share

 

 

“Believe in Beauty” is a term Kimberlee and I decided on because it is just that; it is the gratitude we feel for God allowing us to have a career in which
we can celebrate His beauty by using every bit of the creativity and imagination He blessed us with.
These concept shoots are something that we plan months ahead and dream about even longer than that. We are also beginning to offer them
to our studio clients. If you can dream, I am sure we can create it!

We are so grateful to Tenley and Kiptyn for doing this shoot with us. As well as quite a few others like:

Weston Boucher wrote the song for us which can be found for photographers use at www.triplescoopmusic.com

John and Norma of NR3 Video Productions did the fancier video footage

Peggy Rogers, amazing make-up & hair! Find her here.

Handsome gentlemen in tuxes:
Brian MacKenzie (ladies he’s single)
Luke Long (he’s in a famous band called Ha Ha Tonka, he’s not single, sawwy)
Jeff See (amazing artist, no idea if he’s got a lady friend)
Weston Boucher (step off, he’s mine, lol)
Ps. Not sure why this became about their relationship status, guess I knew we’d get a comment or ten about it.

Hot air balloon was provided by Sky Surfer Balloons

Becky Pesche and Ashley Sapp also helped take video and stills

Danielle Adams was the much needed and appreciated reflector holder

Always a thank you to our sponsors BAY PHOTO LAB & GRAPHI STUDIO

You can also check them out at the end credits of this video. Thrilled that this video and our Paris launch could be on the same day! What a celebration!
Pop the bubbly! Talk about a happy day for us!! Yay!
