High Five for Friday! | March 15

This week has been a blur!!!  I was in Denver, Colorado until the wee hours of Tuesday, and went back to work Wednesday... Myself and 3 college friends met there for a board review.  We have to take a "recertification" test to maintain our license as a physician assistant.  Unfortunately, we have to take this test every so many years - and it covers all topics in medicine regardless of your field of medicine.  

Anywaysssssssssssssssssssss

High five! for the following reasons:

1. Study, study study.  We spent 3 full days in lecture from 645 a - 5ish p.  Holy long days and holy coffee drinking.  It def was an amazing review.  It was put on by a super cool cardiology pa.  I plan to go to another CME event by Certified Medical Educators in the future!  My test date is planned for this coming Friday, March 22 - wish me luck!

2. Staying on track.  Well, trying to stay on track!  I came home and have consecutively exercised *three* days in a row.  Phew, I am glad I did it!  I cheated a bit on my eating so hopefully I can recoup my indulgences by trying harder now that I am home and able to cook for myself more. (says the girl who had mexican for dinner last night!--- with a corona! haha)

3. St. Patrick's Day! Fun holiday for everyone.  Except I'm going to try to be a responsible adult and career oriented woman and stay home.  That's right.  No green beer for this girl.  Well, that is unless I get the studying done on my "study schedule".... or unless Folgers convinces me to go out ;)  (Folgers = forrest = hubby)

4. Great coworkers.  I have really enjoyed my colleagues and my job recently.  Feeling blessed and thought I'd share :D

5. Pandora.  Evenings I am home alone.. I *love* to blare either my country pandora station.. or sometimes when I'm feeling it Staind.  It helps keep me entertained the hours I spend sitting on my bum in PhotoShop processing images!

High Five for the Weekend | March 3, 2013

Instead of "High Five for Friday" this week I wanted to share a HF4W post!

1.  Kassandra Olgers Photography has officially become busy!  I had 3 sessions this weekend, and am always in the process of emailing back and forth new and/or potential clients.  I am so thankful that bout one year ago, I was convinced to challenge my creativity and photograph my first boudoir session.  Making clients feel as beautiful as they are is my main goal, and I believe I accomplished it this weekend!

2.  A girl's weekend.  This coming weekend I am heading to Denver, Colorado.  I have to re-certify for my physician assistant's license soon so myself and 3 friends are meeting up to go to a 3 day course.   To keep up with me during my trip, be sure to follow me on instagram @kassandraolgers

3. A boy's weekend.  This past weekend Forrest had two friends visit for the weekend.  Total shenanigans but so fun and so glad he got some testosterone time. :)

4. Building a new house.  We have our house on the market... and are anxiously awaiting one more contractor to give us an estimate for our new house we plan to build.  Hopefully we hear back and its good news!

5. Happy hour yoga.  Friday after work I went to the best de-stressing exercise class.  There is a local yoga studio that offers a class Friday evening where you "donate what you want" and attend a yoga class.  The instructor was excellent and used all kinds of strange words I am not familiar with- but it def took my stress level way down and I felt more relaxed than I have been in a long time :)

Well, thats it for this week! Sorry no pics to accompany it- but there will be plenty of pics on instagram throughout my trip this coming weekend!

One Hot Momma | Morgantown WV Boudoir Photographer

"Thank you Kassandra for making me feel pampered and relaxed during my session. You were so fun and easy to work with. You really took the time to find out exactly what I wanted, had great ideas and used a variety of settings. The photos are fantastic! Every woman should do this for herself. It makes you feel so good about yourself. Thanks for making me look and feel my best!"

Boudoir Testimonial | Morgantown WV Boudoir Photographer

To help everyone learn a little more about boudoir photography, I thought I would share the input of one of my recent clients....

Who is receiving this gift? my husband =)

What helped you finally decide... "Ill do it!"  I had been wanting to do something fun and sexy for my husband; a fun gift that he wouldn't expect. You convinced me this was it!!!

Which photo is your fave and why? I love loooove the one of me laying down in the black and white.  I sent it to my sister, and she was quickly impressed!!  She said I looked like a model ;)

Would you recommend a boudoir session to others? Definitely!  I was a bit nervous before, 

but you helped calm my nerves.  I felt more comfortable after we got a couple shots in...it was fun!!!  :)

 ..it would be fun to have a boudoir party (bachelorette or birthday/ladies night??) with your girlfriends... Boudoir picture party!! ;)  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------     

 I really enjoyed the photo shoot and would definitely do it again.  I've already been recommending you to others.  I even feel a little more confident about my body after seeing them, you know?  Sadly,I think we as ladies pick apart our own bodies.  Anyway..you did a great job!!  Thanks again! =)

Boudoir makes a great gift or is a fabulous way to celebrate recent achievement in your life and show yourself off a bit to your significant other.  All photos, poses, and outfits are tasteful.  Feminine yet flirty.  And last, remember photos are never shared unless you wish for others to see your images.
