It’s the day of love! Wait, shouldn’t every day be dedicated to love? We think so! While today is the perfect excuse to get dressed up and go eat out or eat in, get chocolates, flowers and sometimes even a sparkly diamond! [Last year, that’s definitely what I was hoping for- even though I claim not to celebrate Valentine’s day! I thought, hey if he thinks I don’t celebrate it, then maybe he’ll think I won’t expect it or it’ll make me like it in the future! Yeah, I was wrong, but the perfect day came and now it’s crazy to think back, as we’re already married!!] While today is Valentine’s day, there are many more excuses to get boudoir photos taken- as there’s always birthdays, wedding presents, anniversaries and best of all, a random gift of love! So get to know Evoke A Vivid Impression of Reality!
Champagne: How is Evoke different than other boudoir photography companies?
Evoke Boudoir: Our cutting edge products coupled with fun, fresh, high end photography and cinematography makes us the Northwest’s premier boudoir company. Our motion products are the first of it’s kind within the industry and our still products make one-of-a-kind gifts!
Champagne: Why brides?
Evoke Boudoir: There isn’t a sexier, more romantic gift on the planet to give your man the night before your wedding! Giving a groom stunning photos and/or a short video of you looking amazing is something he’ll never forget. Document your beauty, so neither of you will ever forget how gorgeous you truly are.
Champagne: What sort of products/gifts do you offer?
Evoke Boudoir: To feature your gorgeous images we’ve got photo flasks, calendars, playing cards, centerfold books, pillowbook albums, bedside prints, and even a gorgeous leather box to hold everything (plus whatever naughty things you’d like to add). Our products are high-quality and custom designed to be gift that won’t soon be forgotten. We have photos and descriptions of all of our products on our site.
Champagne: What’s with the fusion videos?
Evoke Boudoir: I met Marc a few years back and saw what an amazing cinematographer he was from the get-go. When I decided to pursue boudoir photography, I knew I had to find a way to put his talent to work, and create the first motion-still fusion videos within the boudoir industry. We did some research and couldn’t find another company offering anything like it. We are thrilled with the outcome and our clients absolutely love what we come up with for them! Their men like it even more!

Champagne: How about something for my bachelorette party?
Evoke Boudoir: Have some girlfriends that would love to do a shoot too? Perfect! We love a good party! You and your gals book the room, we’ll show up with champagne and chocolate in hand! Our parties are super affordable for each of your gals, and typically the bride doesn’t spend a dime! What a fun way to kick off your bachelorette party! It only takes an hour or two, and then you’re on your way to dinner, or the club!
Champagne: How would you describe your style and approach?
Evoke Boudoir: Our style is fun, fresh, dramatic, flirty and definitely sexy. We love to get to know our clients and determine what they want from the experience. We then customize the style and approach of the shoot and decide how best to represent our clients vision. At the end of the day, we’re all about having fun and creating something unique to each client.
Champagne: What do you do when you’re not doing what you do?
Evoke Boudoir: I co-own and operate studio ESS, a creative and unique portrait studio. Marc is the owner of Moving Picture Weddings, a wedding cinematography company. We both love snowboarding, our spouses, and our dogs… not necessarily in that order. : )
Champagne: If you could photograph any one in the world, who would it be and why?
Evoke Boudoir: Ellen Page, I find her absolutely adorable, and think spending an hour with her would be nothing but laughs.
Champagne: Thank you, Joni and Marc [Evoke] for telling us more about your company! Make sure to check out their website and become a fan on facebook!!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Wishing you a day filled with love and laughter!!
Cheers,
Mandi, Rachelle & the Champagne team
