The traditional first wedding anniversary gift is paper, and what more modern (not to mention sexy!) interpretation of that idea than some boudoir prints for your honey?

Laura in the Mardi Gras mask she was wearing the night she & her now-husband met.

How incredible is this mask?? Laura was wearing it at a Mardi Gras party on the night she and her now-husband met, just about 10 years ago and I loved the idea photographing her in it for their first wedding anniversary -- talk about sexy & thoughtful gift for her husband! Laura showed up to our shoot with so many wardrobe options and so many ideas -- these are just a small selection of the fun we had. It turned out that Laura is a gymnast as well and had some very special skills to show off during our session as well (hello handstands!!) I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I had taking them -- I can't wait to hear how Laura's husband reacts to her photos!
