the boudoir interview . get married tv

A few weeks ago, Harmony Walton from Get Married TV (on Lifetime television) asked if we could discuss boudoir photography. I was so excited to sit down with her! 

A condensed, written version of the interview was just released... Stay tuned; the video footage will air on the television network in the coming weeks. Until then, 

Click here for my interview! 

the pink project . one more month

As many of you know, the pink project has been a project very close to my heart... I've been so proud and excited to be apart of it by donating $100 from each boudoir session over the last year and a half... October 31st will mark the finish of this goal (and well, this dream of mine) In the end; that date will also mark one year since my mother-in-law's passing due to breast cancer. If you are considering the beauty of boudoir; please consider reserving a session before this date to contribute to their heartfelt cause; proceeds benefiting breast cancer and rape... 

please pass this along we're close to my personal goal!!!! 

much love

danielle 

as a side note, i know i've mentioned their book is available for purchase; but if you haven't picked up a copy yet-- do so!!!! Valerie is an incredibly talented photographer and this book as is the end result to a lot of hard work and dedication by both her and Michelle... Proceeds benefit both causes and it makes a great gift for survivors and photographers alike... 

Featured photographer on Photography Mentor.com

I am thrilled to announce that I am the featured photographer within Robert Evans' Mentoring website this month... A few months ago, Robert approached me asking if I could discuss boudoir and hold a few shoots to be filmed for his website. I have always admired Robert's business in many ways; his success and vision for the past 20 years is definitely something I aspire to emulate. He's actually one of two photographers I immediately fell for when I first discovered wedding photography and is one of the reasons I decided to pursue this in the first place!! (he made me realize wedding photos could be fun and exciting rather than the traditional shots I had always seen growing up!) 

Being asked by him to speak about something I love so much (boudoir) was really wonderful. 

PhotographyMentor.com is a website where photographers (all levels of experience) can gain a look into both Robert's business as well as other guest speakers' as they discuss different aspects of the business; from shooting tips, to marketing, business, etc. New clips, forums and other info are constantly updated. I fell in love with the concept and now that it has launched, it definitely doesn't disappoint.

By becoming a member, photographers can gain access to all 3 shoots we filmed, flash cards for some of my favorite poses along with tips, and a 6 part interview (which I will not be watching, but I hope its beneficial to others!!!! heehee!) Memberships last for a year; check it out!

published . bride's magazine . fall/winter 2008

So excited!!! Bride's magazine approached me a couple of months ago to discuss boudoir photography and I just came across the finished product on the newstands!!!! I wasn't sure if any of the interview or photos would make it in, so how happy was i when i saw this!?!?!?!
Thanks for thinking of me, Bride's!!!
(and a HUGE thank you to my beautiful, happy bride (and now, mom-to-be!), nikki!)

the boudoir session . anna

I had the opportunity to photograph Anna this past Spring... She graciously volunteered to have her entire session filmed for an upcoming segment within Robert Evan's mentoring site... She handled the 'audience' well and looked amazing! It was a long day shooting for the piece so we ended up finishing the session on the roof to take advantage of the sunset...

it pushed me to try a new locale and i'm now loving the roof! 

Ceremony magazine . OC edition published!!!!!

This was so exciting to open up a package this week to find two Ceremony magazines; one being the OC edition and the other the SD edition for 2008... My work was featured on the pages of each; featuring a wedding, a boudoir session, and a trash the dress session! Below is the OC feature; the SD edition is shown in the previous post!!!

Pasadena magazine . the LOVE issue

Pasadena magazine's February issue was inspired by Love; including a 'gifts for him' section. I was thrilled when the editor called to include my boudoir photography within the pages of this beautiful issue!

In case you don't have eagle eyes :) here's what they wrote:

You know those Poloroid shots buried in the drawer, the ones that make you look a little green and a lot like someone who'd be mortified if they fell into the wrong hands? Replace them. Photographer Danielle Biel can make a girl-next-door a vixen or vice versa, depending on the kind of breathless "wow" you plan to elicit. Each session includes 144 shots, a hair and make up sesion, and negatives.
