Back in February, I found out that I was chosen by an awesome local radio station (99.5 The Wolf) to be featured by their morning show. The Wolf’s morning show (Nick & Kristen in the Morning) is such an entertaining radio show that’s also super unique! They have a segment called the Name Campaign that features a different small business each month!

Now you can probably see where this is going… Nick and Kristen decided to bring their Name Campaign to Brittney Corey Photography!

This year for my birthday, I walked away with such a special memory… I photographed a wedding for Pat and Ann!

You heard that right! I spent the day celebrating this amazing couple and helped them capture their love, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! For the wedding, we spent most of the gorgeous September day outside in their friend’s backyard in Clackamas, Oregon, and it was the PERFECT day for a celebration.

Even though I love to step outside of the box with my clients to create a specific theme or setting for their boudoir session, I haven’t forgotten about the beauty of a classic boudoir shoot! There’s something SO special about a traditional photography session that takes us back to basics and features a simple backdrop and classic lingerie.

This is why I was so excited to see that my client booked a boudoir session and just requested white cotton sheets!

We know that boudoir photography sessions are AMAZING for boosting our confidence, but there are so many other benefits and reasons for having boudoir photos taken… The final pictures that come from your session are truly pieces of art, and they’re all yours to either display or hang if you choose!

Looking for another reason to have boudoir photos taken? The photos can be given to our partners, and they’re guaranteed to be OBSESSED with what they see… It’s a promise! Plus, whenever your partner is away, they’ll also have an amazing reminder of who they’re missing. They’ll be so eager to get right back to you!

It’s SO true that the simplest things have the power to connect us. In the case of my clients, you can bond over beer! Yep, you heard me right… Beer!

When Samantha and Jon had their first date, it was over beers… and the rest is history! They continued to grow their relationship and made a point of visiting breweries together along the way. A shared interest between them ended up becoming a way to grow closer together, and look where they are now!

When it comes to masquerade photography sessions, my clients and I definitely aren’t strangers! I’ve LOVED shooting these themed sessions in the past, and I’ve even offered seasonal masquerade specials.

Even though I’ve used a masquerade theme in my photography sessions before, this time, I planned to host a model session! I had a specific vision for this shoot and was SO excited to bring it to life. I was hoping for most of the session to be in my boudoir studio and to also include many “traditional” boudoir elements… Think my living room and bedroom sets along with classic lingerie and heels! Then, we’d add in a mask to amp up the look and create a sensual and modern masquerade theme.

If you’ve seen some of my boudoir photography before, I’m betting you’ve noticed that boudoir sessions can come in all different types of styles, environments, shapes, and sizes.

We’ve had outdoor sessions, shower sets, kitchen backdrops, and milk baths! Even if you’re dreaming of a different type of set that I’ve never used, I’m always up for chatting about your ideas and finding creative ways to bring them to life!

What if we take this idea a bit farther, though? Boudoir sessions allow us to not only create settings that match your wildest dreams… If it’s up your alley, you can also create characters for your photography session that we can bring to life!

When was the last time you decided to really change up your appearance?

Personally… I know it has been awhile for me, but there definitely have been times when I have the urge to try out a new haircut, update my personal style, and even get a new tattoo. Even if we’re totally confident with our current look, sometimes it’s just fun to update our appearance! Whether we end up going with a small change or a huge makeover, these changes can definitely give us a boost of confidence, too.

Making updates like these can also inspire us to want to capture our new look. A photoshoot is perfect for doing this! You’ll be able to have photos that capture your updates AND your confidence…

When was the last time that you did something truly spontaneous?

I know that it can be scary to embrace new opportunities that come up in our lives because we never know what the outcome might be. If you’ve ever found yourself being tempted to try something different and shake up the status quo, just know that I’m right behind you as your cheerleader. Here’s proof that being spontaneous, trying something new, and turning it up a notch will pay off…

I always LOVE meeting new clients. There’s something so special about the opportunity to connect with someone new, work with them to create memories, and help them preserve those memories. When clients return, it’s an incredible experience, too.

Whether a client has worked with me once, twice, or a million times, I’ll always jump at the chance to grow with my clients and continue working with them whenever an opportunity presents itself. My client is a perfect example of this…

When it comes to long distance relationships, it’s SO important to find ways to connect with your partner while you’re physically apart. Sometimes this can take a good amount of creativity!

When you’re face-to-face with your partner or spouse, being intimate and working on your physical connection will come more naturally… But what happens when you’re trying to build intimacy from hundreds of miles away? Sharing photos is a fan favorite for some, but what if we stepped up the game and took boudoir photos to share instead?

Today, let’s talk style…

Whether you love wearing pieces that are lace or leather, simple or patterned, edgier or softer… there’s always room for you and the styles you love! When it comes to you and your personal style, I love to talk to you about your preferences and see how your favorite styles can find their way into our boudoir photography session… Even if the clothing you choose may be seen as outside of the box!

When you think of having a girls day, what type of activities do you imagine? I’m sure some of you are imagining a relaxing day all about self-care that involves going to a spa or getting your nails done. Some of you are also probably imagining a fun movie night with plenty of wine and your best friends by your side.

I love these fun ideas as much as the next person, but I’ll be the first to admit that sometimes it’s time to shake things up. If you’re looking for a different activity and feel like you’re ready to try something new for a change, I have the PERFECT activity for you… Consider a boudoir session with all of your best friends!

Have you been thinking about booking a boudoir photography session for yourself? Want to have an experience where you embrace your body, build your self-confidence, and walk away from the session with STUNNING photos to either keep for yourself or show off? Maybe that all sounds great to you, but there’s one issue…

You’re just not quite sure what kind of session you’re imagining for yourself! You’ve seen a couple examples of boudoir shots, but you’re needing some inspiration to give you ideas and help you decide on the right type of photography session for you…

What’s your favorite thing to do on a warm, bright summer day? I’ll let you in on one of my favorite ways to enjoy a sunny day… Ever since jumping into photography, I’ve always LOVED that summer is such a popular season for weddings. As a photographer, I love to celebrate love, and a gorgeous sunny backdrop is PERFECT for capturing memories of two people in love.

This is one of the many reasons why I was so excited to photograph Tylar and Keven’s wedding! They reached out to me and asked if I could photograph their ceremony and reception held at Vintage Gardens Rustic Events. I learned that their event was set for July, and I immediately couldn’t wait for their big day…

When you think of the “typical” boudoir photography session, what comes to mind? Do you think about photos taken in bedroom sets? Or even see yourself posing in a living room set?

What if I told you that there’s a way to shake things up? When we work together, I love to talk about your vision and hopes for the session… If you’re imagining something a bit different and want to get creative, I’m all ears and here to help! I want to create a session for you that feels like it’s a perfect fit for your personality.

Stepping in front of the camera can require us to be a little vulnerable. Trust me, I know it’s not always easy to put yourself out there… Especially if it’s your first photography session! If you’re working with the right photographer, though, you’ll find that having trust between you two will make you feel so comfortable during your session.

For this session in particular, my client wanted to take some photos that would really push her out of her comfort zone. Before taking any of these shots, I made sure to share that she was in a private and safe space. When client comfort is made a priority, the studio then becomes a safe space where clients can feel free to embrace their bodies and themselves… and that’s how the magic happens!

When was the last time you played dress up? Or had some fun with a costume on Halloween? Really think back on it… Those of us with kids are used to helping them pick out a costume for Halloween every year, but when was the last time you really allowed yourself to play dress up and have some fun?

What if there was another good reason to put on a costume and embrace part of your childhood again? It can be so easy to lose sight of the magic we felt as children while dressing up, so I wanted to give my clients another good reason to grab a costume and play pretend for a bit…

When it comes to finding love, anything is possible. With all of the ways we can meet and connect with potential partners in today’s day and age, there are fewer rules than ever… making dating and romance so exciting! Would you be open to meeting your partner online? Here’s the story of a couple who did just that!

My clients first met each other online, and now they’re happily engaged! After connecting online and then doing long distance for some of their relationship, they eventually came together to live on the west coast. I loved hearing about their online success story, and I was INCREDIBLY honored to be able to celebrate their engagement with them by having a photography session.

Maternity photoshoots give us the power to capture a moment in time when we’re carrying a child, and it’s such an INCREDIBLE gift to have. When looking back at our bodies and ourselves during these sessions, we can appreciate our own beauty and strength. These photos truly help us gain a love and full appreciation of our bodies!

When my client reached out to book a session and started to share more with me, I learned that she wanted to book a maternity session to capture her third pregnancy. She hoped to capture her body in a special moment in time so she could look back at her photos and remember the way her body changed through her pregnancy experiences.
