I am excited, and sad, to announce that we will be closing our Fresno Studio location and relocating to Boise, Idaho. The move will take place in either December 2012 or January 2013. I am excited for the new changes that are coming in both my personal life and with my business. But I am sad to leave the Fresno area and all the FABULOUS clients and friends that I have since I opened my studio. I want to thank you all for your love and support and if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be working in a field that I love.
Even though I will be moving my Fresno studio, I will still be coming back to the area every 3 or so months and holding local Boudoir Events. These events will be announced as always on my blog, Facebook, and through this newsletter.
The last day we are taking shoots in the Fresno Studio is December 5, 2012. If you are wanting to schedule your shoot for Christmas then be sure to take note of the following booking deadlines:
Christmas Deadlines
Last Day for a Photo Shoot with no Rush Fee: November 20, 2012
Last Day for a Photo Shoot with Rush Fee: December 5, 2012
Rush Fee: $100
If you book a shoot by December 5th but you do not need your images until after the Christmas holiday please note that it will take me a little longer than usual to get your images and order to you because of the move. My usual turnaround time to see your images is 5-7 days but it will take me about 14 days during the period where I am moving. Thank you for understanding.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the studio at BOUDOIR@brittanygerth.com

2 Months Until My Boudoir Shoot!! | Fresno Boudoir Photography, Boise Boudoir PhotographyAugust 10th, 2012I have been going back and forth on posting this – especially on whether I wanted to include my weight.

I have been going back and forth on posting this – especially on whether I wanted to include my weight. I mean, I don’t really want the world to know the number I see when I step on the scale, do I? But then I thought it would be good for me and good for my clients to see that yes, even though I shoot boudoir & I am telling them that it’s ok to nervous and to relax and have fun, etc, I know what they are feeling and what it is like to be nervous for a shoot 
Last year, I had the wonderful privilege of attending a photographers workshop with the Boudoir Divas in San Diego. I have been following the Boudoir Divas for a few years and had always wanted to do a shoot but I never had the opportunity. After the workshop, I told myself that if my business was doing well and I had moved into a studio space within 1 year of the workshop I would book a photo shoot with them. I met my goal and now I am so excited for my upcoming shoot in September!
EXCITED AND NERVOUS. Lets just say, my body isn’t exactly what it used to be a few years ago and the thought of all my bumps, lumps, and curves being photographed is a bit scary.
I have been trying for about a year to loose weight but I never stuck with anything and it would always fall on the back burner – so I maintained a steady weight of about 145 lbs. My goal weight has been to get down to 130. It really hit me that I needed to start loosing weight and getting back in shape at the end of April this year – I was at my heaviest (155lbs – I can’t believe I just put that out there for the world to read!) and when I attended a wedding for my cousin, one of my uncles came up to me and announced in front of everybody that I had gained to much weight and I need to get skinny again. It was so embarrassing.
Now, I am so lazy when it comes to exercise (just read this post). I will be the first to admit it. When I was in high school, I played sports, etc. But once I stopped playing it was so hard for me to keep a regular gym schedule. It still is. I have a fabulous pair of trainers sitting in my closet that I haven’t worn since college when I used to run a few times a week.
May 6th, I weighed in at 155 lbs. I wrote my goals down, had images to inspire me, etc. But I still couldn’t bring myself to bring my trainers of the shelf for a run. I had dabbled with Livestrong (www.livestrong.com) during my many adventures of trying to loose weight and was thrilled to learn they also had an iPhone app. It has been perfect for me to keep track of what I am eating and the exercises I do (on the rare occasion I decide to dawn the sports bra and sweat). I have been watching what I eat and limiting my calorie intake and by June 29th, I was down to 145.5 lbs. Then I stalled for a couple weeks and my weight stayed the same.
It hit me this last weekend that my shoot is coming up in 2 months, at the end of September. So I need to really get my butt in gear! I guess it’s time to finally blow the dust of my trainers and hit the pavement (or the elliptical) for an hour each– and start going back to Pilates. So I have been doing 60 minutes on the elliptical or running and Pilates 2 times a week. And, as much as I hate working out (especially the whole running thing) – I am having fun and feeling really good. Lets hope I can keep it up!
Wish me luck!

FAQ’s: Model Release | Fresno Boudoir Photography, Boise Boudoir PhotographyAugust 6th, 2012One of the most popular questions that I receive is “If I book a photo shoot with you, does that automatically mean I am going to be on your blog/website?” And the simple answer is “No.” All images that you see on my blog, website, and marketing materials are of clients who have given me [...] |
One of the most popular questions that I receive is “If I book a photo shoot with you, does that automatically mean I am going to be on your blog/website?” And the simple answer is “No.”
All images that you see on my blog, website, and marketing materials are of clients who have given me permission to share their images. When you come in for your Premier to view your images, you will sign a Model Release that states how Brittany Gerth Provocateur (dba Brittany Gerth Photography) can use your images. There are a number of options:
At minimum, I love it when my client at least allow me to show potential clients in the studio. I love growing my portfolio and being able to show potential clients a variety of images.
When I do show your images, or write about your session on my blog, I will never use your name. My clients are always referred to only by the first letter of their last name. For example, Mrs. G or Miss G. I understand that boudoir photography is very personal and I respect your privacy.
In The Dressing Room – BHLDN | Fresno Boudoir Photography, Boise Boudoir PhotographyAugust 3rd, 2012I love Anthropologie. Every Christmas and Birthday what is the one thing I ask for? An Anthro Gift Card. It is my favorite store and while I can never afford anything unless it is deeply discounted (like the time I found a $200 dress marked down to $30!) I still LOVE to go in and [...] |
I love Anthropologie. Every Christmas and Birthday what is the one thing I ask for? An Anthro Gift Card. It is my favorite store and while I can never afford anything unless it is deeply discounted (like the time I found a $200 dress marked down to $30!) I still LOVE to go in and explore. Their displays are fantastic and I can spend my time building my Wish List.
When I was planning my wedding I had a very specific look that I wanted and I could not for the life of me find anything that fit. So in the end my wedding dress was so-so and did not go with the theme that I wanted. Right after my wedding I found out about Anthropologies BHLDN line! I couldn’t believe it! There, staring right at me was my dream wedding dress!! Talk about terrible timing!
I still love to browse their wedding lines and occasionally I find that they have some fabulous Lingerie Pieces that are perfect for a soft, vintage boudoir shoot. So if you are looking for a fabulous, vintage style lingerie piece for your shoot, look no further than Anthro’s BHLDN line.

Vendor Spotlight: Brand E Pilates | Fresno Boudoir PhotographyAugust 1st, 2012Can I just say that I hate working out. There, it’s out there – I will admit it. I cringe at the thought of having to work out – I would rather wash windows than workout. And I hate washing windows – it is the equivalent of torture to me. Am I getting my point [...] |
Can I just say that I hate working out. There, it’s out there – I will admit it. I cringe at the thought of having to work out – I would rather wash windows than workout. And I hate washing windows – it is the equivalent of torture to me. Am I getting my point across here?
That being said, I was first introduced to Pilates on a Reformer in September 2011 when I went to Florida to visit one of my best friends. She is a Pilates teacher out there and I went to a couple classes she was teaching. I loved rolling around the reformer machine rather than doing Pilates on the mat because it was just fun and took my mind off the fact that I was working out.
So once I started commuting to Fresno for work, I looked for a Pilates studio with reformer machines – because there was no way I was going to even think about going to a mat class ever again (yes, the reformer is that fun). And that was when I found Brandy of Brand E Pilates. I know nothing about Pilates – just that I like the machines. It was obvious that everyone in the class had been going for awhile, so I felt a little bit like an outsider but they quickly welcomed me as one of their own. And Brandy is a fantastic instructor and very patient with me when I have no idea what I am doing, or when I am about to fall off the box. Because lets get real – I have lost my balance and almost fallen a couple times. When that happens I act that I still have my s*it together and hope that no one saw.
Classes are an hour long and it goes by so so fast! And afterwards – you will feel so amazing! It never fails, after class I feel so much more energized and my body just feels good. It’s that good kind of sore – the kind that reminds you that yes, underneath that winter layer I put on, I do have muscles!!
Be sure to check out the Brand E Pilates website to view pictures of what the studio looks like and what its like during class – I had the opportunity in April to take some pictures of classes for her website You can also find the studio on Facebook!
If you are interested in coming out to a class with me let me know! I just started going again after a couple month hiatus and I would love to have you along with me! And Pilates is the perfect way to get toned up for your boudoir shoot!
