What Does Complete Self-Love Look Like?
Shaquelle recently came to Voulez Vous for her first ever boudoir photoshoot. She shared, "I was introduced to the idea of a boudoir session by a friend and it just seems very fun and exciting. I have never done a boudoir session."

Let's Get Away
The sun was shining with scattered clouds, there was a coolness in the air, and the car was loaded with props and wardrobe options from the Voulez Vous Boudoir studio. 9:30 am; we headed towards Arkansas for Beaver Lake. No destination in mind, but to just go and see what spots inspire us. It was a two and a half hour ride, so Sarah & I had time to visit and get to know each other better. This is always beneficial because it really does help the client relax and feel comfortable once in front of the camera.

Celebrating New Beginnings!
As she closed the book of her old life, sighing relief as she finally let go, she carved a path to a new beginning, writing a new chapter. The uneasy feeling of change soon faded away and for the first time in a while her soul felt free. ~ Peta Ramia

An Eternal Love
My first maternity photoshoot was in 2001, just as I started my photographic journey. I set up a black backdrop near a large living room window, posed my muse on the floor with a white chiffon piece of fabric, and went to work. When the film developed and I picked up the prints, my heart skipped a beat… I was mesmerized… they were so beautiful. I knew my client was going to be so happy and I was proud of the job I did.

Valentine's Day Lookbook
While Valentine's Day is a day dedicated to love, it isn't a holiday solely for the lovebirds. The most valuable love you can nurture and celebrate is the love you hold for yourself. Time and time again, we hear that it's not what you wear that makes you sexy, it's how you wear it! It's the confidence you carry. Or more famously, "Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful." — SOPHIA LOREN

Awakening At 50
2020 was an ugly year in history. I think everyone in the world would agree that is a fair statement. Little did I know that 2021 would be personally worse for me. After a very long, heart wrenching and drawn-out battle, my sweet father passed away July 26th. I spent every single day (sometimes twice a day) from April to July at the hospital caring for and visiting him. I witnessed him in pain, turmoil, and worst of all, I witnessed him lose all dignity. Unfortunately, I will never be capable of erasing this from my mind. I don’t think anyone can ever really appreciate what it’s like to lose a parent until they do. Although I knew it would happen someday, I certainly was not prepared for the heartbreak I endured and continue to do so.
