I finally convinced my good friend Alicia to let me photograph her in my new Portland boudoir studio. I’m on a mission now to photograph all the women who really need convincing and don’t think they’re camera ready. Seriously, I’m so sad when I hear excuses from women who want to focus on one or two little flaws instead of seeing how beautiful they really are. Ladies – now is the time, please don’t wait until you’re “perfect.” None of us are perfect and we shouldn’t have to be!
