28 Jul Destination Boudoir Photography: Fearless Retreat New Orleans 2014
Embrace your wild side. Immerse yourself in history. And get your sexy on!
This year’s Fearless Retreat will be co-hosted by Star Newman of Acts of Beauty Photography and Meghan Garner of Meghan Garner Portrait Designs. One vacation, two photographers, uncountable great memories. Love your body like never before, make wonderful new friends, and have an adventure with us!
Surround Yourself With Beauty
Our home base and location of our photography for this trip will be the Race and Religious historical compound, an amazing piece of Creole history lovingly restored and thick with old stories. Every corner is a work of art.
Explore the grounds, cool off in the pool, get lost in the gardens and patios, and maybe find a ghost or two. Bohemian luxury at it’s finest.
Celebrate Yourself
With a fabulous photoshoot with each of your two fabulous photographers, fully styled with professional hair and makeup, in the air conditioned comfort of your historical venue. The highlight of the vacation and the highlight of your year!
Explore the Town
New Orleans is full of history and beautiful colours, shops and cafés and tree-shaded plazas. At night it comes alive with music, street performers. You’ll be staying in the historic Garden District, home of some of the best shopping in New Orleans and close to the famous French Quarter.
Have an Adventure
Cuddle an alligator? Go on a ghost tour? Take in a live jazz show on Bourbon Street? We’ll help you plan activities for your spare time that will make memories and make your friends back home wish they had come too!
What’s Included
3 nights accomodations in the beautiful Garden District
Breakfast every day
Ghost tour of the French Quarter
Private burleque class
Two empowering photoshoots
The Best Part
… will of course be your fabulous photoshoots in the incredible Race and Religious historical compound, site of celebrity weddings, music videos and all sorts of gorgeous madness. Let Star and Meg show you how beautiful you really are!

Makeup lesson with Michelle Grad

Posted at 20:27h, 30 JulyHi Star!
I am hoping to come on this amazin event. I am trying to get my passport application in. Once it is in and accepted I should be good to get it in time. I don’t want to book a spot I case someone else can take it until I know for sure. If there is still room I hope to book with you before the 15! I will let you know as soon as my application is completed ( this weekend) and accepted ( hopefully Tuesday!)
Fingers crossed!
