Cedar Falls, Waverly & Eastern Iowa Boudoir Photographer
Back to back mother daughter sessions are simply unique, to put it frank. I’d be lying if I said this was my first time doing this, but one of my first times ever doing boudoir I had a mother and daughter book two time slots in my first ever marathon! However this was my first time posting two people like I did with this session. My whole goal with Carly and Miss T was to highlight their differences, similarities, but above all else their bond. I’ve gotten to know Carly well, and Miss T through Facebook interactions, but I’ve always heard the most amazing stories from Carly so to meet Miss T in person AND shoot her session was such a treat for me!
I immediately took her as a “take-no-shit” kinda person and those are the kind of people I love surrounding myself with. Their bickering was just as fun as when they would cat call and encourage each other during their sessions! I always encourage bringing a friend, and if your best mom is that friend all the more power to you! I have such a strong bond with my own mama, so highlighting these two felt so natural for me. Above all, nudity doesn’t need to be sexual. The art of being naked and unashamed is something important to practice! Loving and embracing your body in it’s most natural form is something that everyone should try to do as much as possible.
If you’re reading this, do yourself a favor: Listen to Mary Lambert’s Body Love Pt. 1 & 2 while staring at yourself naked in a mirror. She puts it into words so well and I’m definitely thinking of both those songs as I’m writing this blog!
