Trash the Dress with ajbc photography (port huron beauty and boudoir photographer)

First off. Can we talk about why they call it Trash the Dress when in all reality it should be called "Have fun with your dress", or "Do something exciting with your dress before it rots in the closet", or even "You have a beautiful dress use it one more time!" Anything but TRASH.... because that's not happening.

Secondly. Can you believe this beautiful woman has already been married for 4 years, still fits in her dress AND has had a baby. If only we were all so lucky. Sorry to rub it in guys, but it's true.

We had such a great time creating this fairytale scene. The Black River and some state land actually worked out perfectly for what we had in mind! Take a look at what we did with some balloons and a cold river.
 

P.S. If you're thinking this is glamorous, you should see how "horrible" the session started out! Check out some behind the scenes here:

Boudoir and Beauty Get Away by Port Huron Boudoir Photographer ajbc photography

(6:30 and 7:30 booked)

Picture yourself sipping wine, eating strawberries and chocolate, while someone else takes care of your hair and makeup. You just sit back, relax, and enjoy sitting outside in the middle of my calm, private 20 acres (woods, a pond, wild flowers, and even a tree swing, plus a fab "gold set" I've never used before until now!) We've figured out the best outfit for your body and now you're ready to get photographed, while I help you the whole time, shaping your body and facial expressions in to something out of a magazine.

Afterwards you come back to the studio where you get your own private viewing of everything beautiful we've created together. You pick your top 5 images to go on a disc where you can share on facebook, print from, and keep as a digital collection. You can also see all the other beautiful ways you can display yourself (or gift yourself!) with my canvases, wall art, and beautiful albums and boxes, ALL of which you save an extra 10% off of for booking the event.

I NEVER do "minis" or "deals" EVERRRR. And I have no intention of ever really doing this again, but I have the most beautiful set and I want to share it with more than one person so I've created a killer deal for you and am making a day of it! Join us and book NOW. I already know this is going to go SO fast!

Payment plans are available and can be broken down in to weekly payments that fit you and your budget! Just ask me!

Make the Money- a self portrait by ajbc photography (port huron photographer) inspired by Macklemore

I get strongly inspired by many things. Landscapes, sounds, books, pictures, and mostly songs. Macklemore is my current obsession.

"Now, this is my job, I will not quit it

Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
That's just the work, regardless of who's listening,
Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
Classroom of kids, or a venue performing

If I'd had done it for the money I'd have been a fucking lawyer

A true artist won't be satisfied
So I guess that's the sacrifice
And I say...

Make the money, don't let the money make you
Change the game, don't let the game change you
I'll forever remain faithful

All my people stay true."

Make the Money- Macklemore

50 and fabulous by ajbc photography (port huron, mi boudoir and beauty photographer

This amazing woman came to me with a goal- 50 and fit. I feel like it's time she get a new goal, bc she's already (almost) 50 and fit, and she's for sure 50 and fabulous... so what else is left?

I really feel like these images show off a new side of her, showcasing a new chapter in her life, and appreciating who she is and all she has accomplished (she's climbing mountains one week and raising money for charities the next!)

This proves beauty comes in all ages, and shines brighter when you really dig for it from the inside.
