Finding my inner sexy... | Atlanta Boudoir
Boudoir isn't just "pretty" ladies... it's raw and emotional and it's a journey! Miss T was so thankful for "finding my inner sexy" and we are SO stoked that she came to us because she is SO sexy and she needed to be put in front of our lens. It was fate <3 Here's what she said about her session with us:
"My friend recommended Mirrored Images Boudoir and after seeing the outcome of her session, I booked mine! I have wanted to do this for years AND I wanted to do something different for my husband for Christmas. I was a little nervous but the interaction with Jenn & Staci made me feel very comfortable. I couldn't wait until Christmas to show my husband the teasers she sent me and his reaction was better than I expected! My favorite part... was the whole thing! It was amazing and uplifting! I love the album I bought, I'm saving that and two large prints for him to open on Christmas! I can't thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to find my inner sexy!"
We don't blame you girl, we were dying to show off your pictures too. For real... you're our cover girl for the VIP group for this month. What! #smokin !!
Hottest Christmas Gift... ever! | Atlanta Boudoir
My clients this year have been amazing - not only rocking their sessions and enjoying every moment of it... and creating the hottest Christmas gift... but most have allowed me to share with ya'll! Here's what Miss A had to say about her experience with us:
"I chose Mirrored Images because the photo's on the website were gorgeous. My friends pushed me to do the session, I did it for my husband for Christmas. I was so nervous, but you are amazing and nothing was awkward! I didn't have to think... just follow instructions. My favorite part about the session is that I feel sexy for the first time in my life! For anyone who is hesitating doing a session, do it! I still can't believe I did , but now I feel like I can be a great business owner, amazing mom, awesome wife, and smoking hot all at once. It feels like I can do anything! I love the album I bought, my girlfriends think the photos are hot! Thank you for helping me find someone I didn’t know existed."
Eeeeek! Hurry up Christmas, I don't know if this hot mama will be able to keep this a secret for long! We'll save the best images for him <3

"WOW" | Anniversary Boudoir
Miss D came into the studio and I adored her from the get-go. She came in for an anniversary boudoir session and left not only with that but with a gift for herself as well! We had so much in common -- including the fact that we're both small business owners + have a full time job, and manage a household with children. I loved hearing her stories about her new business and how she got started. We got to swap marketing and networking ideas while she was getting her makeup & hair done! Like most women, Miss D felt a little guilty about spending any amount of money on herself but this was also a gift for the hubs so it's totally justified, right?!
She had been thinking about a boudoir session for two months and reached out because she really wanted to "WOW" her husband. And she did!
The images were beautiful and the album was the wow factor I was looking for! My husband said, “Wow bae, is this my wife?” “I hope you realize how beautiful you are now, because this how you look to me everyday.” OMG I just love that! I love LOVE love when the men jump in on my mission to help women love and appreciate who they are and they do it so naturally!
"My favorite part was having my own private photo shoot, it made me feel special and sexy! Whether you in your 20’s, 30’s or 60’s; today is the youngest you will every be, stop wasting time and do it for yourself if not for someone special. The album is just as special to me! I love the photo layouts."
Miss D ended by saying she is more confident now, which is incredible. I am SO SO happy Staci and I could help you with this experience and hope it's one you keep forever! <3 <3 Keep rockin' girl!
Vampire Inspired Boudoir Session | Atlanta Boudoir
I am so blessed to have amazing creative people in my life that continue to inspire me. This shoot was inspired by my girl Katie Cotton, Cotton Rouge Photo, who did a vampire photoshoot last year (I think?). Our vampire inspired boudoir session went down on Monday and HOLY MEOOOOWWWW I can't believe how much I loved it. A fellow photog, Solita Delacruz, came out and we photographed each other. I will definitely be planning more styled shoots because they are THEBOMB.COM !!!
I will say that we learned all fangs are NOT created equally... we didn't get a ton of fang shots because they were very difficult to work with. We've learned the trick and will do better with fangs next time!

Date Night Ideas
How often do you find yourself wanting a date night but just cant figure out what to do? I know I know, the men are supposed to plan date nights, right? Although it's always nice to be taken on a surprise date every now and again, we too can plan those sexy nights out with our lover!
Breast Cancer Awareness | Sparkle & Celebrate PINK
This past Wednesday we did something incredible and selfishly rewarding. Sparkle & Celebrate PINK was created to raise breast cancer awareness, as well as to celebrate the strength, bravery, and survival of women who are in remission or currently fighting. Women, in general, have body image issues and struggle with self esteem and confidence. As artists, specifically boudoir photographers, it's our mission to help women begin to overcome these obstacles. When women go through an experience such as breast cancer, the emotional and physical challenges become greater. We wanted to help women celebrate their bodies, begin to accept the physical and emotional changes they've endured, and have the chance to celebrate their story. To hear more about our reason why, see our segment on CBS/Atlanta Plugged In.
Can I just tell you how emotional but uplifting the day was for all of us? There were many moments we all had to hold back the tears and by the end of the night we (the artists) already chose two dates for 2018 to sponsor this event again. Please share these images of inspiration so others can have the option to take part in the 2018 dates. Women can begin to contact us now to participate next year! We will have a date in Taylors SC & in Gainesville GA.
Five beautiful and inspiring women participated, four survivors and one currently battling. They lifted each other up, celebrated each other, shared their stories with us, and I'm confident they will remain in contact for years to come :) Justin with Stearns Media Group produced a behind the scenes video that included interviews with the ladies -- scroll down to see that OR click here for our YouTube channel.
"You’ve helped me begin to find myself again. I’m getting more comfortable with how my body has changed and I am learning to embrace it...scars and all. I really thank you from the bottom of my heart."
"My husband's reaction to the Sparkle & Celebrate pictures was the best feeling in the world!!!! He is so proud, he wants to share with everybody! I know I am not a model, but after 10 years of hiding....I finally feel whole again. I can never thank you enough - not only for what you did for me on the outside that day, but what you did for me on the inside for a lifetime! Thank you!"
