Boudoir evening in Paris

August 12, 2024August 14, 2024 ~ Madison Kennedy

We love going to the Hotel du Bourg Tibourg with my boyfriend ❤️

It has this antique boudoir feeling, where you can really have a moment to yourself, without minding the busy streets of Paris. It’s also in one of our favorite neighborhoods, so there’s a couple restaurants around there we enjoy coming back to.

I think Paris is definitely at its most beautiful in the summer, but like, summer here is more August and September. We get the prettiest skies, pinkest sunsets, and the weather is mostly a delight.

Pre-wedding black and whites

Hello beautiful bride 🤍🕊️

This series of portraits was taken before she said yes 🪽 I deliberately chose to do in it in black and white, because I didn’t want any color to be distracting from the raw emotions she was showing. Since she’s so discreet, the black and white just drives the focus more intensely. I think she came out beautifully, and it was such a perfect moment to be sharing with her, to help her get ready, and knowing she made her wedding dress herself was honestly spectacular.

I can’t believe my best friend got married !

Barbara, what have you done 💕

It is wild to be a millennial and hit your thirties, and then people like your best friend suddenly become an “adult” overnight basically, and get hitched ! Like I’m sorry, I kinda missed the memo on that one… I’m not aware we’re out of teenage-hood yet, but hard reality slap 😂😭 thanks for that !

No seriously, I am beyond proud and happy for her. This photoshoot was so special, because we escaped the wedding festivities, so she could take a breather, and walk in this beautiful countryside that’s surrounding the place. In the moment she was a fairy to me, wearing this mini dress that she made herself, and I just had this Lykke Li – I Follow Rivers song playing in the back of my mind, watching her basically flying off her feet from happiness, and I just started snapping a few shots to really immortalize this beautiful moment.

I think I caught her just like she always was, and forever will be, a true wild forest spirit 🩷

Surrendering to simple things in life

I get lost looking at the skies ✨

There’s something just so peaceful about it. I watch it all unravel from my window, how Mother Nature is so strong and beautiful. Then I go for walks in the woods, and there’s more enchantment to be found there as well. It’s never-ending when we can disconnect from everything but what grounds us.

On another note, I’ve opened up my closet on Vinted… click here to see what I’ve put out ! 🤗

I still can’t believe we have a Krispy Kreme in Paris ! 🍩

Krispy Kreme was so part of my American life 😍 Back in California whenever I was craving some donuts, I’d go there if I could. Sure there were other options, but I was always a Krispy Kreme fan. I’m bringing everyone I know there now, with a side of coffee for optimal enjoyment.
