A short while ago, I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Christi Williams’ pinup and boudoir studio for an afternoon of vintage glam.
Each year she puts out a calendar and every month a different girl is featured. I am in the running to be February’s girl for the 2019 calendar!

This is the final photo set from my recent visit to Christi William’s boudoir and pinup photography studio last week. I had two outfit changes and I posted the first set the other day, but I have to say that of the two sets, this is my favorite.
I love, love, love the poses, the dress and the mischievous smile Christi coaxed out of me. It was hard to pull off these shots but she made it so fun and I had an absolute blast.
If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experiences and looking to feel your sexiest, I highly recommend visiting Christi and treating yourself.
Thank you to Christi and to Corrie of Midwest Makeup Supply who did a fabulous job with my makeup.

Last week I had the honor of visiting Christi Williams, the photographer of one of Minneapolis’ most incredible boudoir and pinup photography studios. I had an amazing time modeling, smiling, posing and trying on clothes. I heard she had a fun wardrobe to pick from but I was blown away but how many fun things there were to wear.
I love the fit of this dress and I love how these photos turned out.
What do you think?

Yesterday I had the incredible honor of visiting Christi Williams, the makeup artist and photographer of one of Minneapolis’ most incredible boudoir and pinup studios. If you’ve known me for more than two minutes you know that I love modeling and having my photo taken. I’ve been lucky in many parts of my life and working with my friend and photographer Shannonlee from studio Fotofida as been one of the best things that has happened to me.
I’m always looking for a fun experience and this opportunity seemed too fun to pass up. I’m waaay too shy to do anything in a boudoir style, but who can resist the fun, flirty dresses of a pinup girl?
Before the visit, I had a makeover with the incredibly talented Corrie Dupay of Midwest Makeup Supply. I’ve been blessed to know Corrie for a little more than a year now and even had a makeup lesson with her recently. She always does *amazing* work, but this makeover was dynamite.
When I walked into Christie’s studio, I was blown away by how…cool it was. It felt like I was stepping back in time as I was surrounded by vintage furniture and props.
I was impressed with the wardrobe options, of course. What t-girl wouldn’t be?
The shoe selection was to die for.
Christi is also ready to provide hair styling.
After picking out a couple outfits, Christi and I got to work. She helped me pose, showed me where to point my toes, how to position my hand and kept things light, fun and playful. After we were done shooting, we sat down and looked over her work and picked out the best photos.
Once the photos were picked, Christi and I sat and chatter about beauty, fashion and of course, the transcommunity. Christi works with a lot of transgender clients and does some remarkable work. She does gender transformations and I can absolutely testify to her talent and support.
I am dying to see the final photos and I will post them when I have them. Until then, I hope you enjoy this preview.
Thank you to Christi for an unforgettable shoot. If you’d like to experience this yourself, drop her a line.

I found this dress over a year ago and I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. I bought it without even trying it on, as I was confident it would fit as it was my size. When I got home I was crushed because I couldn’t even zip it up.
I know what you’re thinking….that I need to drop a few pounds before I could wear it, but to be honest, I didn’t think that was it. The zipper had this annoying little catch that didn’t allow the zipper to go up all the way, even if I wasn’t wearing it.
Determined to wear this dress, I actually had the zipper replaced…but it was still giving me trouble. I looked into all sorts of tricks to help a zipper glide more smoothly but nothing worked.
I really wanted to wear this for my recent photo shoot, so I took the dress out of the closet, and zipped the zipper up and down about a million times and it seemed to have gotten the kinks or whatever out of it. The first time I was able to get the zipper up while wearing it was a wonderful experience.
I love how these photo turned out and I can’t wait to wear this again!

A few weeks ago I did another photo shoot with the fabulous Shannonlee. I wanted to share some of the photos from that day. More are coming! I love how these turned out. 
My makeup was done at Rita Ambourn in Saint Paul. I absolutely recommend scheduling an appointment with them. The results were amazing!

I have been very lucky to have met an incredibly talented photographer two years ago. Shannonlee, of Fotofida has taken more photographs of me than I could count. She’s done my modeling photography, photo shoots for the MN T-Girls, as well as those times when I just wanted some new photos taken.
Last week was one of those times.
I booked a photo shoot with Shannonlee and spent a wonderful four hours with her taking pictures at Casket Arts, a beautiful building in Northeast Minneapolis. I packed some outfits and high heels, and after an outstanding makeover at Rita Ambourn, I was ready for my photo shoot.
I had a wonderful time. My face hurt from smiling and I cannot wait to see the photos. I wanted to share some pictures from the day I hope you like them!
Love, Hannah
