Not only is she stunning, but to make this photo 10x more exciting, this is one of the first shoots in my brand spankin’ new studio! Well, not new, to be technical, as the building is over 100 years old, but certainly new and fabulous to me.

So, that’s what the blog silence has been about. Busy, busy, busy getting everything set up, moved in, and carefully working on a branding facelift all at the same time.

Next up is a look into my new beautiful industrial loft world, stay tuned.

Remember, that’s just this blog, don’t forget to get your updates at the boudoir blog HERE!

And what’s a photography blog without some actual photos….. a sneak peek of what’s to come-

To read all about how the Dallas Bridal Show went, see more booth details, and take a peek at my fabulous assistants visit the boudoir blog HTTP://ALLUREBOUDOIR.COM !  Although the new office is not in Tennessee, I, Sheila, will still be your photographer.  We are still a boutique business, just more convenient to more people!

Thank you to everyone who made the Dallas Bridal Show a booming success!

I am ecstatic to announce that I have officially started a separate boudoir business, ALLURE BOUDOIR!  With our main office in Dallas, Tx!  No worries, we’re still in Knoxville too (finally fulfilling my life goal to be in two places at once).  SO, from now on all of my boudoir posts will be found at http://allureboudoir.com/blog.  But, don’t be surprised if you see a few teasers every once and awhile over here too

Everything is still in construction mode (not for long though), I have a website coming, and all kinds of product info that will be flooding the blogs.

I’m also equally excited to show off Allure Boudoir at the Dallas Bridal Show this weekend, July 11 & 12.  I have the honor and privilege of being the FIRST & ONLY boudoir photography booth to exhibit at Dallas Bridal Show.  Come out and see the awesomeness!

So there you have it, now everybody knows why the blog has been quite.  I’ve been insanely busy getting ready for the bridal show, and stocking up on boudoir posts to put on the new blog over the next week.

You may notice you’re looking at my BRAND NEW BLOG (if not, you should work on your observation skills)!  Things aren’t perfect quite yet, but I can be pretty picky so I’m sure it will be awhile before they are.  I had so many great new ideas, branding, and website plans that got put on hold that I decided this new blog could be just the thing I need to get things started again.

With all things undergoing construction there are bound to be some kinks.  One of the major ones is the unsuccessful integration of my old blog posts on the new blog.  Well, the posts are technically here, but the images are not.  So until that is all worked out you can always see all the old entries at the old blogspot. (You can find the link above in the menu)

In the coming days I have lots of amazing images to share!  One more post from Nevada and then tons of great images from Paris, I really can’t wait to share those!

Here is Valen one more time, when we were done with her boudoir session she had about 15 minutes before she had to leave, so naturally we had an impromptu outdoor shoot…

I realized two things from watching this video. First, I make a ridiculous face when I’m shooting. It’s like an extremly scrunched face with a smile added in, eek! Second, I should not where a bright green jacket when everyone else is wearing black, I don’t pull of “incognito” and it’s not exactly flattering.

Regardless, the video rocks, check it out.
