Boudoir Photography:

Picture the Love After Dark
Kim Rottmayer
(614) 323-6583

http://picturetheloveafterdark.com

“With a passion for creating beautiful imagery of the bodies that surround me I opened my home studio in 2018. The year prior, I found myself lost. I was fighting a transition personally and creatively. I was searching for a new place to land and digging within to find it. It was incredibly disruptive until I finally opened up to my inner voice and started letting go of the things that kept me from self discovery.

I knew I wanted to create a space where it was okay for all shapes and sizes of bodies to feel sensual, provocative and flirtatious. I, like so many of us, had a desire to love my body and be proud of it even at times when feeling that I wasn’t at my best. And this space was created for simply that. To make a KICK ASS documentation of this part of your journey, no matter where you came from and where you are going. You’ll never be RIGHT HERE ever again. NEVER. And I want to photograph you and show you how truly BEAUTIFUL you are.

I have had so many people join me in the journey to discover sexy and tasteful boudoir photography. They have let go of stigma and allowed themselves to be anything they wished by doing an After Dark session. I welcome you to take that journey with me and see yourself beautiful and sexy.”

Goody Two Shoes DJ
Emmy Beach
(740) 534-3006
emmy@thegoodytwoshoes.com
http://www.thegoodytwoshoes.com

‘I went to college for broadcasting and journalism. While most students in my program gravitated toward TV, I became obsessed with radio. In 2006, I started my own show called “Emmy Becomes Eclectic.” Each week I put together a two-hour playlist of all of my favorite songs, from indie rock to 60’s pop, from garage rock to vintage hip-hop. This began my love affair with the “perfect mixtape.”

It took me a while to form a plan, but I found a way to combine my love of unique music with my skills in broadcasting. And this is how The Goody Two Shoes was born.

I hope to get involved with people who have the same fuzzy feelings about eclectic music as I do, people who want a DJ who will work with them to design a signature playlist for their signature wedding.

Need a playlist that’s not typical and has your name written all over it? I can do that. Your day is all about you, after all.’
