Salem Boudoir Photographer | sunset in the studio

Just beyond the sunset
Someone waits for me
Just beyond the sunset
Lies my destiny
Where the purple mountains
Lie in deep tranquillity
There I’ll find the treasure
Of love eternally 

Just beyond the sunset
Waits someone so fair
Just beyond the sunset
All alone they wait there
Their hair is golden
The colour of the sand
Their eyes sparkle in the night
Like diamonds in your hand

Just beyond the sunset
Lies a home for me
Where the world is peaceful
Like a paradise should be
Just beyond the sunset
Someday is where you’ll find me

~David Harris, 1966

These shots were from the very first boudoir session I did in my studio. I knew immediately that I loved shooting in there at sunset. I have west facing windows, so for about 2 hours the light just pours in like this. It's stunning and beautiful, and I'm just so in love with it! It allows me to be creative in so many ways - exposure, composition, shadows, etc. 

If you are invested in booking a sunset studio session, just let me know. I often shoot in the evenings and on weekends, as those are the times that tend to work best for my boudoir clients. Most are moms and/or work 9-5 type jobs, so evenings and weekends just make sense. 

Please feel free to visit my website at www.kelwardphotography.com and view my boudoir portfolio at www.kelwardphotography.com/boudoir. I also have a Facebook page (click here to view), as well as a "regular" blog, if you're interested in more than just boudoir. Click HERE to view my other blog.

I can be reached by email at kel@kelwardphotography.com and by phone/text at 503-939-6781. I look forward to meeting you! If you'd like to sit and chat, I have space available for that in my studio. I'm also happy to meet up with you at your home or at a local coffee shop. Just let me know what works best for you!

Salem Boudoir Photographer | July promo & an announcement!

Announcement… Now offering color images for in-studio boudoir sessions!!

July Promo information below…

Salem Boudoir Photographer | soft and sweet.

A sneak peek from a sweet session I did over the weekend with a soon-to-be bride... 

Salem Boudoir Photography | new studio!

Yes, I've been blabbing about my new studio for a while now. 

What can I say? I'm more than a little bit excited. 

I've been showing some sneak peeks, but I finally have the first 

boudoir session done and ready to share! 

There is about a 2 hour window in the evenings when the sun is setting and blasts this dramatic light into the studio. I am seriously so in love with it. The great thing is that I can do dramatic shots like these, or just move over a few feet and get softer shots without this type of light. If you like these types of shots, though, make sure to mention that when you're booking so that we can schedule it at the right time.

This session was done using a Bronica ETRS and a Canon 5D MarkII.
