Some of my favorite ring shots...




























We only have two openings left for the May 5th and 6th workshop in New York city.
So you are already shooting boudoir but need some more inspiration to tweak your style? Or you have never photographed a girl in her undies before but want to learn more to get started in this very popular genre of photography.
Join us on May 5th and 6th for a two day workshop. You will learn from one of the industries leading Boudoir Photographers - Critsey Rowe of Couture Boudoir®
visit www.coutureboudoirworkshop.com to learn more.
Our fabulous sponsors!!
Be sure to click below to see more... The first day will be hands on shooting with real clients {not models because models know how to pose} We want you to learn how to pose real girls! Day one will include lighting techniques, inspiration, posing and portfolio building. There will be a limited number of attendees to keep the workshop intimate so everyone can learn without the pressure of fighting to get a shot in. The second day will be learning how to market, use of material and resources, learning the business side of things to include privacy policies, model releases for clients, post pro, plug-ins and retouching. ***There will be a few nice goodies given to each attendee that will be sure to make your day!*** You must have an SLR camera to attend. Side note: This is also your last chance to put your two cents in about the most important thing you would like to learn from this workshop? I honestly want everyone that takes this workshop to walk away with something. What is it you want to know? The workshop is $899 and can be paid with credit card or check. To register please click HERE. Questions please contact Cindy at press@critseyrowe.com Additional info: We realize some of the photographers wanting to attend already have portfolios so we will be covering something for everyone. We will have real clients as models at the workshop so the attendees can learn to pose real people and can build portfolio images - they will be able to use those images on their websites, in portfolios or however they wish. We hope to have women of all sizes and complexions so the attendees have a broad range to learn from. Boys and girls are welcome to attend. Save a link to the Couture Boudoir Workshop site as we will be updating new dates for the Couture Boudoir® Workshops in London and California soon.
Today we leave for Munich Germany! I am so excited to get there and see family and friends. For those that do not know, my husband Thomas is from Munich. We really enjoy visiting and also working in Europe. We will be shooting two sessions while we are there. One lifestyle session for an actress/model and another session for one of my Couture Boudoir® clients.
After just two days in Munich we will take a train to Rome for our long awaited honeymoon. Thomas and I celebrated our two year wedding anniversary on March 19th. We have been so busy that we have not had time to take a honeymoon. We finally decided to just block off some time in advance. I cannot tell you how excited I am to be going to Italy and actually not working for a change. Don't get me wrong - I am truly blessed to have such amazing clients all over the country and abroad and I love nothing more then being hired for some of the awesome jobs we do. I am just excited to spend some quality time with my wonderful husband. : )
This is our official notice that we will be out of the country without access to email or voicemail and will return all messages after April 5th, 2010.

I had the honor of photographing Cinthya and Randy's wedding this past weekend. They are so adorable! We ran out of time and did not get to do as many romantics as I would have liked to do so we are going to do a fun after session with them after they return from their honeymoon.
Here is a sneak peek...

Amanda and Angel are no strangers to the city so when we wanted to shoot in Grand Central on a deserted train track they were all for it. Thankfully we did not get arrested but instead had a great time and captured some cool images.
