Here’s a little secret, I LOVE creating by the water. With water, we nurture, pray, cleanse, and soothe. Those are just merely a few of the things water represent. Water is life. I have always found our relationship with water so mesmerizing, especially for Women. So every season shooting a boudoir session near the water is, somewhat, soul healing.

Happy New Year. Being that this is my first journal post in 2020, it seems fitting to start with those words.

I wanted to start my first journal entry of 2020 by going back to the principles I embedded early on in my work, simplicity. By no means simplicity is simple…

Friends, I am finally sharing one of my favorite boudoir sessions with you! This maternity boudoir session was captured at the sun-filled studio located in Miami, Stardust Studio. When Erica first reached out to me for her maternity boudoir, she told me that she really wanted to celebrate her body with beautiful and powerful images. Don’t miss this one!

Three Easy Steps to Prepare for Your Boudoir Session by Denice Lachapelle Photography, Miami Boudoir Photographer.

I’ve had an emotional week. I promised myself to be more open with you, to share with you without fear, and so I am here to do just that. This week has been a trying week for our family. We are embarking on a new chapter facing things we have never done. It is both exciting and nerve-wracking. As I write this post, my stomach is in knots and all I could eat today is a bowl of cereal. And then, here I am, reminded of the courage and strength every woman faces when they are in front of my lens. Believe it or not, each and every woman I have photographed has left a mark in me as an artist and a person. Their courage and strength follows me.

One of the core values behind my work is the deep desire I have to tell the stories of women that are in front of my lens. I find it to be an honorable responsibility to do so through captivating and timeless boudoir images… In this boudoir session with the beautiful Nikita, keeping things simple all while celebrating her was key. On a Wednesday morning, in a natural light filled corner of my home, Nikita and I created intentional boudoir portraits.
