Today I’ve been trying to work hard (I get distracted easily, damn Facebook) and see I have to admit that this blog post is pretty easy since K pretty much did all the work for me. Copy and paste, thanks Bitner! (That’s short for business partner). Here is a sneak peak of the email that going out to our members.

Here is what my wonderful Bitner wrote to the members…..

“Hey there, fabulous boudoir photographer…

Isn’t it sweet that she adds my name. But notice how her name is first. Hmmmmm. I’ll have to address that with her. How dare she do ALL the work and then put her name first.

Referral Site… Invitations!!!

By Personal4 Comments

5.14.10: UPDATE!*** INVITES HAVE NOT BEEN SENT OUT SO DON’T PANIC IF YOU HAVEN’T RECEIVED YOURS! WE ARE TRYING HARD TO GET THEM OUT BY THE END OF TODAY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE πŸ™‚
boudoir-photography-network
OHMYGOSH, you guys!!!! We are SUPER-excited to announce that we’re finally sending out the official invitations for our BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY REFERRAL WEBSITE! We’ve been working hard to sort through all of the submissions, and we have finally narrowed down the choices to our top 220 photographers that we’ll be inviting to join our referral list! I know we’ve talked about this before, but in case you’re wondering why we started this referral list, here’s the deal: At our studio in San Diego, we receive over 12 new inquiries per day from potential clients looking to come in for a boudoir shoot. Out of those inquiries… we ALSO receive a lot of questions for women who live across the US or in other countries, who are looking for a boudoir photographer nearby them in their own city. In the past, we haven’t been able to refer any photographers to these women, but that got us thinking about finding a solution for the problem. And so, we decided to create a Boudoir Divas referral list – an exclusive list that is only open to those photographers who we have approved and invited to join. We can’t wait to get this site up and running, and all we need now are you fabulous photographers to join in the excitement!

Check out BoudoirInternational.com to see the ‘basic’ version of the website (it’s still under construction, and we’ll be working on it a TON over the next few weeks before it’s launched)… but just to get an idea for what it’s going to look like, go check it out! And if you haven’t yet submitted your online portfolio for us to review, you can submit to be a part of our referral list here! If you DID submit your info already, check your inbox later today to see if you’ve received an invite!!!! Woo-hoo! Let’s get this thing rocking! xoxo, Team Diva

Marissa Explains It All: Episode 2

By Personal6 Comments

Alright! Here we go, back to blogging our silly little videos. πŸ™‚ We truly want this blog to be a place where we can share information, ideas, and inspiration. If you have any questions for future episodes of “Marissa Explains It All” – feel free to leave your ?s in our comment box below. Thanks! We’ve already got a few more episodes ready to be posted in the coming weeks; we did a big recording session last week before we headed out for our camping trip, and we tried to answer as many questions as possible. So if you asked us a question on the blog, be sure to check back in the coming weeks to see our answers!

Marissa Explains It All – Episode 2 from Boudoir Divas on Vimeo.
PS – on a totally unrelated note… does anyone know if it’s possible to CHOOSE which frame is frozen through Vimeo? Like the pic above – which is just a random frame of the video… is it possible to change this somewhere? (I think this is probably a question for our good friends Lan & Vu). I mean, Marissa ALWAYS looks cute, but this shot caught her mid-sentence and she sort of looks like she’s pissed. Hahaha! Love ya Riss! πŸ˜‰ If anyone has the answer, please help us out!

Boudoir Marathons | Las Vegas Boudoir Workshop

By Inspiration, Workshops5 Comments

One of the rising trends in boudoir photography is the “boudoir marathon.” This is a great business idea, and it’s PERFECT for anyone who doesn’t have studio space. Most boudoir marathons take place in a hotel room… you’ll book the hotel for a few days, then book up as many boudoir shoots as you can in those days! Such a cool way to do things. We’re super excited about our Vegas Workshop because we’re going to be shooting in a hotel suite – which will be perfect for those of you who are planning on doing marathons in a hotel! We’ll show you how EASY (and inexpensive) it can be to get it going. With just a few simple lighting set-ups and a couple innovative ways of looking at the hotel room, you can transform it into a sweet boudoir studio! Want to see more about the Vegas workshop? Click here for all the details. We have just a FEW spots left, so if you’re interested in joining us, email us soon! ([email protected]). Thanks!
