Salem Oregon Boudoir Photographer | moody b&w session

Anyone who is familiar with my work knows that b&w is my true love.
I love the textures, the tones, the depth, the drama, all of it. I love how 

moody b&w can feel. This in-home session was an absolute blast. Her home was 

filled with gorgeous light, everyhwere I looked and we laughed a lot, despite how 

serious these images look. This mom is not only a smokin' hot fitness competitor, but she
is seriously gorgeous. I mean, look at those eyes!!

Salem Oregon Boudoir Photographer | my friend on film

You may recognize my beautiful friend from a previous post. Her session was shot hybrid, meaning I used both digital and film cameras. The previous post showcased the digital images, while these are the film images. I love all of her images, but boy if the film images don't just sing to me.

Salem Boudoir Photographer | fine art water session

In case you haven't heard, I am now offering fine art water boudoir sessions!

These sessions are only available during the summer months, as they're shot outdoors, in a shallow pool of water. When I say a pool of water I literally mean a pool, as in a kiddie pool in my backyard.  For more information about these sessions, or to book, simply email me at kel@kelwardphotography.com. Full sessions and mini sessions are both available.

Salem Oregon Boudoir Photographer | just book your session already!

This is my friend. She booked and paid for a boudoir session last year. LAST. YEAR.
Then put off booking her session. To lose weight. To get more organized. To get her personal
life in order. Blah, blah, blah. When her session fee was about to expire (yes, almost a whole year later), she asked if she could put it towards a photo shoot of her kids. I said no. Not because I'm mean or because I lack understanding, but because I knew she NEEDED this session.  So, literally the last weekend before it expired, we did her session.
Without losing the weight, without getting organized, and without getting her
personal life 100% in order. 

Her session was awesome, she loves the photos, and she feels GREAT about herself.
I'm sure you can imagine what she said, but I'll tell you anyway. She said, "OMG, why
didn't I do this sooner?!" So many clients say this after their session that I
just had to laugh when she said it. 

So, the moral of the story is...If you've been thinking about a boudoir session, stop putting it off and just book it already! Who cares if you're not at your ideal weight or if your schedule is crazy. Just do it! You won't regret it. Plus, you can always book
another one when you have the perfect body and your life is
completely in order and no longer chaotic.
