What other ladies have said about their boudoir experience…

“She made me look like I was a model (tough to do!) and she captured just so many real moments. I was ridiculously nervous prior to the shoot (self conscious & scared I wasn’t going to be as beautiful as I want to be for my fiancé) – I mean who says, “Today I’m gonna get close to naked with a girl I’ve met a couple time for my to-be hubby?”. Kristin was very professional -she set me completely at ease…brought bubbly, music and delicious treats. She knew what to say to make me feel more comfortable & natural. I am so excited (OK beyond excited!!!!) to give these to my fiancé.” – Mrs. A

“Kristin is amazing, I cannot say enough good things about her abilities. She really know the angles to photograph and has you looking amazing. I would highly recomend her.” – Mrs. R

“When I met her she was this petite, sweet young woman… Not intimidating at all (which helped, because I was so nervous & uptight). She totally made me feel comfortable. She was very creative and fun throughout my session, kinda made me forget I was 1/2 naked!” – Mrs. T

What to expect:

The marathon will take place at a secret location in Anaheim, CA. Trust me…it’s AMAZING!!! That couch will be there just to give you a glimpse. You will arrive and immediately be swept away by the talented, sweet Riley Hagel who will transform you into a glammed-up version of yourself! You’ll indulge in a gourmet cupcake and a glass (or two) of champagne as she works her magic. Kristin will then take you for your photo session. Pick your music to help you feel your sexiest and she’ll help you decide for the lingerie you bring what outfits will look best for the photographs. Don’t worry though you aren’t on your own! She’ll talk you through poses and positions that are the most flattering your your figure. You’ll never feel so comfortable in your own skin!

Full payment is due upon booking and $50 of your spot is non-refundable.

Session openings are as follows (you will arrive one hour before your session for hair and make-up):

Hey gents! This is Dustin writing…the male half of Smetona Photo. As a photographer and a husband who is the glad beneficiary of my wife’s boudoir photos, I thought it appropriate to weigh in on this sexy trend.

Men have an important part to play in boudoir photography and I don’t mean as the subjects! I want to ask the question: why should you encourage (and even finance!) some sexy shots of your precious lady? With Valentine’s Day rapidly approaching, let me offer three reasons:

1. Picture her. Images of other women assail you constantly. From billboards to magazines to the gym to Facebook, beautiful women are thrust into your face everywhere you look! In order to keep your mind fixed on the lovely woman you’ve chosen, wouldn’t it make sense to surround yourself with sexy, beautiful images of her? Over and over again we’ve had husbands tell us, “My jaw hit the floor when I saw her boudoir photos!” Now when you run into a picture of another beautiful gal, your mind is drawn to the most beautiful one…who’s waiting for you at home!

2. Confidence is sexy. Men are attracted to confident women. What man doesn’t love it when his lady says, “Come on, you know you want me!” That’s incredibly sexy! However, most women don’t say that because they lack the confidence of a bombshell. When your woman sees how beautiful she looks in her boudoir photos (and she will), she gets that sexy confidence. Plus, when you encourage or pay for her to have a boudoir session, you are clearly communicating that, to you, she is drop-dead gorgeous!

3. HOT SEX! Every day we come home from work, take out the trash, have dinner, do some chores, and then watch TV before going to bed. But what if you were doing the dishes and your wife, with newfound confidence, slipped a wallet-sized picture of herself half-naked onto the countertop next to you? *Insert jaw drop here* Now you’re both ready for action! An otherwise boring evening has now become anything but boring. Talk about putting the spark into your marriage…

Now that you’re convinced it’s time for your wife to have a boudoir shoot, you must be wondering: “How can I make this happen??” Click here for our Valentine’s Day boudoir gift certificate ordering information.

Kristin looks forward to enriching your marriage!

Get excited, Alanna! Here is what other women have said about their boudoir experience:

“I had a boudoir session with Kristin and it was a blast! She keeps everything light and fun. I think every woman should go outside of their comfort zone and do something like this. I couldn’t believe how fast the time went by and I was actually bummed it was over. Kristin is awesome!!!”

“I had the pleasure of working with Kristin for my boudoir shoot! She was fabulous!! She made me feel totally comfortable, and knew exactly how to direct someone who has no modeling experience and not much time in front of the camera. It was so fun and easy to work with her. Plus, her photography is absolutely stunning. You will look AMAZING in your photos. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Kristin made the boudoir experience a total blast. She was completely professional yet brought a fun and sexy element to the photo shoot. I felt totally comfortable and loved the pictures that I got a chance to see. She is fabulous and an absolute crack up! Every gal out there should do a boudoir photo shoot with Smetona photo!”

Again, a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who entered!!!

Merry Christmas!!!!
