Elly Mayday Boudoir + Glamour Session at Baker Beach San Francisco

Now this was a shoot that was years in the making. I’ve been following Elly Mayday‘s modeling for years. She’s so awesome that even one night we just hung out on skype while I was editing photos. She had done some really great work and lived in Canada, so when we talked about doing a shoot in San Francisco where I was living at the time… it seemed like a pipe dream.

Some years went on then all of a sudden.. there she was in San Francisco! Ironically, I had moved away and was living in Santa Monica. So I gathered my gear up and made the now so very common drive up North to stay with family and finally make this shoot happen.

I try when I shoot any sort of “boudoir” to try to make it a bit different and mix it up with my pin-up style of shooting women.  Does that mean instead of a boudoir session I should start calling these babe sessions? Who knows.

Thanks so much for making this happen, Elly! We made some great images happen and I hope you enjoyed your time in San Francisco.
