Miss L - Huntingtown, MD
When my husband got the new job at Andrew’s AFB, I knew that meant starting over. New town, new home, new schools for the kids, new activities, new friends and a new studio. Oh my goodness. I left my Georgia studio in 2015 with tears in my eyes. It was so beautiful and I was so proud of what I had created. Then in 2022, I left my New Mexico studio. What made me cry was not leaving the physical studio behind, it was leaving the people. I had learned to grow close to my clients. I had seen them in their moments of grief, their moments of joy, and mostly their moments of growth. God, those women were strong and beautiful. I was leaving behind everything I built in my heart.
During the house hunt in Southern Maryland, I was immediately called to a certain neighborhood. I just knew it would be perfect for my kids. The kind of neighborhood with bikes laying around (and no one steals them!). What I never could have expected was the friends I would make. The kind that give zero fucks if you wear your jammies at 5:30 pm to drink prosecco. The kind that make you laugh until your stomach aches. The kind that say “Yes, absolutely, I’ll be there.”
My friend, L is that woman. She’s the one who says yes to any experience. So when I told her that I absolutely had to photograph her… she said yes! Admittedly that was followed by all the reasons she’d be terrible in front of the camera. Luckily, I know better.
So I dug out my best wardrobe options, called the makeup artist and we created magic. What do you think? Is this woman awkward… unphotogenic… weird? No way! She’s as bright, beautiful and bold as she is on the inside.
I’m Leslie, owner and photographer at Lavish Boudoir!
I offer transformational boudoir photoshoots, complete with makeover, to help you feel confident, sexy & comfortable in your own skin.
I’d be honored to have you in my Maryland studio.
