GRRRRRR Baby, very GRRRRR!

Introducing a steamier side of Kismet Photography...Boudoir Portraits! The winners of our free boudoir session were fantastic models and did an incredible job strutting their stuff for the camera. More importantly, they created one-of-a-kind gifts that are going to knock their guy's socks off! In fact, don't just take our word for it. Here is an email we received from one of our winners whose husband is deployed in Iraq.


"Thanks for extending the gallery! I'm sure that will thrill Scott! :) He has been as attached to those pictures as he can be in a public place. He tries to find computers that aren't quite as open and he will just sit there and go through them over and over and over again. In all honesty, he is having a really hard time picking his favorites. The one where I'm on the bed and my legs are in the air...he continues to look at that one and call me his own personal pinup
girl!

I don't think you could have pleased him anymore than you did! I'm sure he will be attached to that computer as much as he physically can be! Thanks again for this special opportunity! To see the smile on his face as he is going through the pictures means more to me than you will ever know!"


Hearing that we made their long-distance relationship a little easier to bear really showed us the power of photographs and how they can bring so much joy to people. It proved to us once again why we absolutely love what we do.

We had an awesome time doing something different and we're so excited to offer this type of session to anyone that is interested. The session is based on your comfort level. It can be anything from soft and sensible to sultry and smokin' hot. Heck, why not even throw on your bridal gown and give a sexy twist to bridal portraits. Bridal boudoir anyone?! The examples below are just a sampling of what we can do for you and what amazing gifts you can give to your man. Gifts that he will never forget!


Imagine his pride when he sees you sporting his favorite teams colors...and little else!








This just proves that you don't have to show a lot of skin to be ultra sexy. Move over Angelina Jolie!


Even your guy's favorite T-shirt makes it that much more personal to him.





It's not all seductive eyes and come hither stares. Don't forget that your guy loves to see that beautiful smile too!








Pearls and lace are just classic.


Before we go, we have to thank Katie Martin, our amazing make-up artist, who did an outstanding job giving our already gorgeous girls a little extra boost of confidence. Not to mention looks to kill! And for all you future boudoir divas and brides, Katie is available for travel and you can reach her at 616-9416.

That's all for now but stay tuned as we still have a lot of awesome stuff to catch up on including a super fun family portrait session that all you Clemson fans will greatly appreciate.

Call back the search parties, We're Alive!

After 2500 miles, 4 states and a few Caribbean islands we've made it back home safe and sound. The whole trip was packed with fun stuff including a couple bridal shoots, a family portrait session (see previous post), an engagement shoot for one of our dear friends (Yay Kristen), a destination wedding (Yay Jen & Wes) and even a cruise vacation for us (Yay us!). We weren't even back in town three days before we headed to Boone, NC for another destination wedding (Yay Wendy & Chris). Going from sunny hot Florida to cloudy, chilly Boone was quite a shock but the beautiful Fall colors up there more than made up for it.

Now that we are back, the first order of business is to announce that we have chosen the winners for our Free Boudoir session contest! We are keeping the names of the three lucky ladies a secret just in case their significant others are reading this. We want to make it a surprise for these three really lucky guys! So if you haven't been notified by us then unfortunately you did not win. Thank you so much to all the ladies that sent us your wonderful stories. We wish we could have picked all of you. But you never know, there may be another chance for you to enter and win in the future. You'll just have to keep checking this blog to see! ;) We are extremely excited about this new, fun and sexy type of portrait session.

Now it's time to get back to work so that we can catch up on blogging about all the awesome shoots and stuff we've been up to as well as some cool new things we've got coming up. Very exciting! Needless to say you better stay tuned. As a matter of fact, just so you don't miss a thing, go ahead and subscribe to our blog by clicking over on the top right. That way you'll be the first to know when there's a new post. Like we said, you never know when we might have another contest for some free stuff! (who doesn't like free stuff?!)


Bye for now,
