A Few of my Favorite Things...

As I am gearing up for a BIG week ahead (Bombshell Shoot, headshots and trip to CA next week) I thought I'd stick with a more low-key post today. A lot of stay-at-home mom's tell me they'd like to get into photography, but don't know where to start. So I point them to where I started, BLOGS. Reading the blogs of professional photographer's has helped me immensely. I also check out some other sites regularly for inspiration. So here they are.

1. Ashley Maxwell Photography- Hands down my biggest influence and in my opinion THE best photographer. I aspire to be half as good as she is someday. I went to high school with Ashley and the best part about her is, not only is she an amazing photographer, she is a kind, giving person with killer style and the cutest family on the planet.

2. The Boudoir Divas- I think my reasons here are pretty obvious =) I read their regular blog and client blog daily.

3. The Boudoir Vixen- Another wonderful boudoir photographer in Louisiana. She is also very helpful when I have questions.

4. Forever 21- I've always loved this store, but now I REALLY have an excuse to shop there as they have the best accessory collection for my shoots. I pretty much go on here every day to see what's new.

5. David Ziser Photography- Just had the opportunity to hear him speak and he has got it together. A wildly successful and genuinely nice man.

6. Victoria's Secret- This site is like a free boudoir posing guide. Such great ideas.

7. Studio Moradi Photography- Another girl I went to HS with....really this is just the tip of the iceberg as far as talented photographer's from my high school. Delbarr has a totally different style than Ashley, but I love them equally!

8. Jasmine Star Photography- I don't get on here as often as I once did, but when I was first starting out, this site was invaluable to me. I read every blog post in 2 days and felt like I had gone to a year of photography school.

All of these sites have upped my photography knowledge in one way or another so I encourage you to check them out! What are some of your favorite sites?

Every blog post needs a photo, so here's one of my favorites ;)
