Skin on Skin: Boudoir Parlor meets Tattoo Parlor (Michigan Boudoir Photographer)

I was beyond excited when a past boudoir client emailed to tell us that her fiance (now husband) wanted to use one of her photos as inspiration for a new tattoo. I nearly fell out of my chair when she emailed us to share the finished work, artfully crafted by the uber talented Matthew J. Hockaday at Avatar Studios in Clarkston, MI. Now THIS is hot! Thank you so much for sharing, Sharon. This is so far beyond cool and I could not wait to share it with the world!!

Embracing Individuality: Free Wedding Photography - WINNERS ANNOUNCED!

We had so many great applicants but, in the end, we had only a handful with wedding dates for which we were not already booked. Anyone that knows me is well aware that I put love first before all else and it is that same crazy obsession that prevents me from giving just one couple free wedding photography. That said, I am excited to announce that we have TWO winners for our contest. BOTH couples will receive our services for 10 hours on their wedding day + a complete set of professional, first edition prints of their entire image collection for FREE (for skeptics, that translates to zero denaro and there is absolutely no catch). We are in love with our craft and the people that invite us into their lives and we cannot wait to work with our two lucky couples.

So, without further delay, the winners are...

Leanne Summers and Robert Smith

AND

Monica Xiong and Tommy Her

Huge hugs to both couples whose love stories melted our hearts!! Please send an email to dionne@theshootinggallery.com to claim your fantastic prize. Thank you to ALL who entered. We are humbled that you took the time to contact us and we wish you all the happiness in the world!!
