Our friend and client, Leah, volunteered her Sunday so that we could video her, pick her brain about the client’s perspective of a boudoir shoot, and photograph her. You have all seen her in the previous video that we posted, and now I wanted to show her one of her gorgeous teaser images and send her a big public THANK YOU!!! Love you Leah.
This weekend was SOOO great! After a crazy month filled with WPPI and workshops, etc, it was a perfect way to recharge and gear up for the next few months! We ended up camping on the beach (San Clemente). And although it wasn’t very far away (and though it wasn’t ‘real’ camping), it was still perfect. Two nights and two full days away from the office/studio/computers/emails: it was just what we needed.
More pics to come soon… Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
*EDIT TO ADD: this pic features Marissa & Weston’s furry kids – click here to read more about them! 🙂
Marissa & I are really not ‘divas.’ Seriously. Most people who know us know that we are very low-maintenance, laid-back gals. We love being outdoors… we love hiking, biking, and camping! We’re throwing together a little impromptu camping trip for tonight, and we’re trying to decide where to go. Beach camping? Catalina Island camping? Or somewhere inland, maybe near a lake?
Any opinions? Beach or lake?
Anyone who lives in Socal… any suggestions on your fave camping spots? (San Onofre is closed, we already tried there – oh, and we’re bringing Marissa & Weston’s ‘children’ Lainey & Puddy, so we need a campsite that will let us bring them along).
Oh, and pics will be posted of our adventure next week, for sure! 🙂
We’re still going to have a ‘mini’ workshop in Dallas – but we just needed to push the date back a bit. It’s NOT going to be in March… instead, we’re shooting for the summer. Thanks for understanding! (Also, would you all leave a comment here or send me an email to let me know if you’d prefer a weekEND or a weekDAY?) Thanks!!!
If you’ve registered for the Workshop (San Diego, this Spring)… I’ve just sent an email to confirm that we received your registration info. If you did NOT receive an email from me ([email protected]), please email and let us know so we can double-check that we have you on the list. We’re looking forward to meeting you all! To register – see this link.
Hey everyone! As some of you already know… Marissa has finally crossed over to the FB world! We don’t have a specific “Boudoir Divas” Facebook account yet, but in the meantime, we’d love it if you want to be our friends…

We’ll you all know that K has me doing these fun little Marissa Explains It All episodes about boudoir. Getting ready to film one soon but wanted to know if you all had anything specific you wanted me to talk about? Ideas?
Today I actually left the studio at a reasonable hour. Tonight Weston’s band was recording at Jon Hazs’ music studio (same sound engineer that did Melissa Vaughan on our website). So as I always tell myself I will, I actually (!!!), went to Yoga and was feeling very good about myself for not being too obsessed with my work. And, as I slid into bed at 11:00 pm after sweating profusely in a room with 20 other people thinking, “dang, should I shower???, ah I need to shower but I am too tired”….. then…. there it was. Just as I was starting to feel like a normal person. Not “a so in love with my job I live, breathe, and eat it person,” I slid into my cozy unmade bed and …… a 100 gig mini hard drive in between my sheets! It must have been left there from my “editing whilst watching crappy tv” session from the night before. I had to laugh to myself. And then realized I just had to bust open my laptop to share with all of you, my hundreds upon hundreds of wonderful friends who would know EXACTLY what I am talking about.
Here is my question to you…. this doesn’t undo all my downward dogs right? I mean those still count if I am on my laptop in bed an hour later contemplating turning on my crappy tv shows and possibly doing some editing???? Or maybe I should shower……
