I am a wife, mom to six kids, a lefty, a photographer. We have six kids that are ten and under. (One big brother to five little sisters!)

I am redefining SEXY!

During my pregnancy, and really through out the postpartum phases of my life I really desired to feel good about my body. Pregnant or not. I just wanted to feel sexy, confident and beautiful. I wanted how I felt on the inside to match what I looked like outside. But my reflection in the mirror didn't match how I felt. In fact, I didn't even recognize the woman staring back at me. After a maternity photo shoot of my sixth and final pregnancy I saw myself for the first time as beautiful, sexy and gorgeous. I felt like I was walking on air!

As the last days of my final pregnancy passed, and our last baby was born I realized that I wanted to feel beautiful like I did in those maternity photos.

I also realized there were other women that felt exactly the same way I was feeling. Whether they had babies or not. So, after almost 20 years of putting my 'creative' artist/photographer to the side. I found my passion was renewed! So, I bought myself my new camera.

I use my camera to make other women feel gorgeous and sexy.

I love what I do, and do what I love.

Scarlett Sneak Peek | Boudoir by Cathy Empey | Langley Boudoir Photographer Langley BC








Scarlett and I have been friends on Facebook for some time, I actually felt like I knew her because I used to watch her on TV, but we had never met until this past Sunday. It was so nice to finally meet up for her boudoir session. Well let me tell you she is just so lovely!

She is a wife, and Mom of two beautiful girls. She also has been on TV before, and has been photographed before which truthfully made me a bit nervous and I wanted to be sure I could deliver beautiful images to her! As soon as I met her, talked then started her session, all was well. My nerves went away I had so much fun finally getting to know all about this wonderful woman.

This hard working Mom has a mobile make up/hair service and is a stylist for Stella and Dot. So for YOUR very own boudoir session, Scarlett would be happy to do your hair and make up for your boudoir session. I look forward to working more with you in the future.

Enjoy!

Thank you so much!

New Look - Coming Soon!



Some colour inspiration! 


Yesterday I went to my friend Sunday's print shop. Pre kids I worked for a large printer in Vancouver. Sunday, and I worked together in the same office upstairs for many years before I left and started having kids of my own. We have now been friends for way over a decade. I still to this day love to smell magazines, and feel up paper samples. I cannot help myself! I am all about great design, awesome paper and good print jobs! To me those are a must!

When I heard she had a print shop in my area, I knew I had to meet up with her and send her my print work. So yesterday, after dropping off my six to my parentals.  I had the pleasure of meeting up with my designer Debora, and also with Sunday. We picked my pms colours for my brand new cards. Those brand new cards will work well with my brand new site and blogsite! I hope to have everything up and launched by August 29th. Why the 29th? Because August 29th of last year was when I shot my very first boudoir session. Heck, it could be next week?! Just waiting on one more item! Yay! I promise I will be the first to tell :D

I am very excited about my new colours and brand.
