Joe and Lora are absolutely amazing at what they do. I had a Boudoir photo shoot with them earlier this month and am sooo pleased with the results. Lora and Joe are so friendly and welcoming. They take away any fear or reservations you may have about the experience and truly turn it into a great time. Lora does such good work with hair and makeup and they both do wonderful behind the camera as well. I highly recommend this experience to anyone considering Devine!! read more

Joe and Lora saved our wedding day. We had a nightmare of an experience with our photographer who had reportedly not shown up to the wedding on several occasions. My now husband and I made the decision to not take the risk of using him and we bit the bullet and decided to find somebody else. Joe and Lora were so understanding and so happy and willing to photograph our big day. They drove all the way to Salina, KS (a 3+ hour drive) with just a few weeks notice. Our entire bridal party and several wedding guests complimented on how good of a job they were doing. They were extremely fun and easy to work with, it felt like we had known them for years. They made everybody feel very comfortable! I cannot wait to see all of the pictures, I am sure I will be blown away! We are incredibly grateful for Devine Studios and would recommend them over and over again! read more

DO IT! My cousin had done a boudoir shoot as a gift for her husband when they got married about five years ago. I thought it was such a unique gift and she looked so hot! When it came time to start thinking about a wedding day gift for my fiancé, a boudoir shoot crossed my mind. I would research it a little and then talk myself out of it. (I obviously would look super awkward and chubby posing in lingerie. (forget about being topless)) But, somehow I finally decided to pull the trigger and, after a few weeks of research, found Devine Studios. I decided to go with them because they were reasonably priced and I liked a lot of photos on their website. I called in July and talked to Lora about setting up a session. She was super friendly on the phone and very informative. I set up my appointment for 6 weeks out so I would have time to get a nice tan and lose those extra ten pounds. Well...over the next six weeks I got sunburnt, peeled, drank beer and ate hot dogs. The week arrived and I was not super tan, I had not lost those ten pounds, and I was feeling kind of bummed out. Even so, since I had already paid for the session and our wedding was quickly approaching there was no backing out now. A few days prior to the shoot Lora e-mailed me a very detailed list of things to bring, they also had a lot of stuff in their own collection, so if I wanted to raid that, I could. That morning I was so nervous, I brought my cousin with me for moral support. Turns out, I really didn't need her. (sorry, cuz) We got to Joe and Lora's house and the second I walked in, the nervousness began to turn into excitement. The first 20 or so minutes I just talked with Lora and she showed me some examples of other shoots she had done, I showed her some pictures I had found on Pinterest and we talked about my level of comfort with regard to how much skin I really wanted to show. I showed her the outfits I had brought and she told me what she thought would look/photograph best. Then, it was time to head to hair and makeup. While Lora was doing my hair and makeup I drank some champagne, we all chatted and joked around and, the time my hair and makeup was done,- 1. I felt like Lora was one of my best friends and 2. I LOOKED SUPER HOT! How did this happen? My hair has NEVER looked this good. BUT, the most important part was, I looked like myself. Lora did and AMAZING job. Now, let me preface with I am a size 8-10. I am incredibly self-conscious about my wide hips, thunder thighs, and (most days) I feel like my face looks a little chubby. None of that crossed my mind the entire time we were shooting. I put on my first outfit and, magically, all my negative thoughts and reservations flew out the window. Joe did most of the shooting and Lora posed me and made sure my eyes kept their "sparkle". I had originally thought it might be kind of weird having a man I had never met(or really any man) take pics of me bearing it all, but it was the exact opposite. Never did I feel like we were in some Austin Powers movie and Joe was going to suddenly exclaim, "Yeah baby, give it to me!" (Although that may have been funny.) I felt classy, beautiful, and sexy. We went through all the outfits I had picked out and did all of the poses I had suggested plus 1000 more that Lora and Joe came up with. Afterwards, I left feeling amazing, then, that amazing feeling turned into...oh God...I didn't even pay attention to what my face was doing. I surely looked awkward in 90% of the shots. I should have sucked in my stomach more. I should have done all the shots from the side or with me laying on my back (because that's when our stomach looks best, am I right, ladies?) There is no way there will be enough good pictures to fill the album I want to give my fiancé. But, whatevs, it was fun. If I look like an awkward sausage, so be it. Fast forward a couple of weeks and OH MY GOD. I met with Lora and we went through a slide show of all the pictures Joe and Lora had selected. There were great ones from every outfit!!! I looked amazing! Who was this woman? I did not look awkward. I did not look like a sausage. It was me. I seriously looked THAT good. How would I narrow down these pictures? If I had an unlimited budget, I would have gotten them all. The best thing was they were not overly photo shopped. I still had hips, but they were sexy hips! I rocked by curves! I may have actually said out loud- I feel like Beyonce. We had finished the shoot with the "implied nudes" and never in a million years did I think I would love them. AND I DID. I mean, I can't put into words how amazing the entire experience was. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Even if you don't have a man to surprise, do it for yourself!!! Ladies- we are beautiful! This needs to be documented! Joe and Lora are a great team. I cannot wait to give the album to my fiance. He is going to s*** his pants. Choose Devine Studios, I promise you will not regret it. read more
