Q&A: Inside the Boudoir Sep 10, 12
Looking for a gift for your groom? What better than to give him more of yourself by booking a boudoir photography session with Flirt Boudoir Photography? Some of you ladies might baulk and gasp at the idea, immediately picturing trashy, scantily clad women with bad makeup jobs. Or you might think it's not for you because you don't look like Victoria Secret's model Miranda Kerr. Wrong on both counts. Listen to what Photographer Cindy Mills, owner of Flirt Boudoir Photography has to say, the benefits you and your groom get from it, and her vision behind it.
The Texas Wedding Guide: How do you approach these sessions with the women?
Cindy Mills: Communication. I think communicating with my clients is the key to a successful boudoir session. From what to wear, where to go to get hair and makeup, and even suggestions on what props to bring; I give them as much information as I possibly can. Once the client arrives we have a short consultation where they can see all the sample albums and products. We also discuss the outfits they have brought and what will look best with what set all while they sip on a glass of champagne. Then once I can tell they are relaxed and all questions have been answered we start the session.
TWG: What guidelines do you recommend to clients?

Friday Fun: Autumn Flirts With Woodland Wonder Aug 24, 12
When you combine a breath-taking venue, a lovely bride, a few tablespoons of toadstools, layers of moss, exquisite floral design & charming stationery….you end up with Woodland Wonder. This autumn-esque affair is ethereal, earthy and charming. You can almost taste the apple cider, carmel and all the spices.
Look at those tantalizing, ruby red apples dipped in caramel. Even more fabulous is the assortment of condiments you can roll the caramel apple in. The red fondant on the cake perfectly complements the decor and setting.

Here are some fun options if you're having a cake identity crisis, and just some ideas you might have never seen/thought of before.

Let the cake design stand alone and simply suspend your names and wedding date, via projector, on the wall behind it. We love the contrast of the crisp, simple white cake with the pops of color against the rough, edgy brick walls.
Incorporate the letters of your first names in this lace-like frosting for a more subtle, elegant cake.
