EP 121: Clients seek out portrait photography services for a variety of interests and needs; be it for corporate, family, or brand-building reasons. There's also a market of people who seek out more personal and empowering forms of artistic expression that may not be seen quite as often by friends, family, and colleagues. In this episode, we talk with Arizona boudoir photographer, Shayla Pelton, about her journey through this fascinating space of sexuality and expression. We chat about the emotional power of her very first boudoir session, the ways she comforts people in front of the camera, the onboarding and offboarding of her clients and deliverables, and everything in between. This is an enlightening, charming, and infectious discussion about self-love and courage, and I'm glad you get to listen to it!
