BIRTH OF VENUS | 30A BOUDOIR GIRLS TRIP | JULY 2024

Our latest girls’ trip at Rachel Oxford Collective found us on the beach in 30A, recreating one of the most iconic pieces of art in the entirety of human history — Botticelli’s Birth of Venus.

One could not be a boudoir photographer and claim that this stunning painting hasn’t in some way informed their approach to the craft, so to say this was a dream come true for me as an artist would still be underselling it.

Additionally, the light during each of these sessions was so incredibly dynamic, so each shoot has its own flavor — not only because of the unique beauty of each muse, but Mother Nature’s untamed magic as well.
