About

Boudoir that captures your beauty inside & out!

Betsy McCue is a boudoir photographer in Kalamazoo, Michigan, serving the Great Lakes area. She has been a professional photographer for 15 years, but reinvented herself and her studio to reflect what is her true purpose on this planet.

She always loved photographing couples on their wedding day and often did a little boudoir session while they were getting ready. It was wonderful to capture that energy and excitement behind the scenes and away from the stress of the day–to remind them how beautiful they were inside and out.

She's taken all those years of photographing people in a life transition and focused her talents on boudoir photography that capture all the beautiful things you are on the INSIDE. This is so much more than pretty pictures! This is a journey of self-love and self-care that will be a gift for you AND your fîancé. She can't wait to chat with you more and celebrate this special time in your life!

In short, going with La Vida Creations was the best decision we made for our wedding. Everything else - the food, the music, the venue - is temporary. The pictures La Vida took of our special day are timeless and we are going to cherish them forever. We are absolutely going to think of La Vida Creations when we need professional photographers for our future events, and we whole-heartedly recommend them for yours!

There are truly not enough good things to say about Betsy and her photography. Betsy also photographed my husband's brother's wedding, so we got to interact with her quite a bit throughout our engagement and wedding. She immediately made us feel so comfortable, and the engagement shoot session got us used to being in front of their cameras. They have experience working with pets, also, so we were so happy to get to include our dogs in the photos, too!

While wedding planning can be stressful, I always trusted that Betsy would be amazing and make the day so easy--and of course I was right! She and Jeff stayed in constant communication with us leading up to the big day, helping us put together a list of our "must have" shots and even a wedding day timeline. The day of, they were punctual and so sweet, and their calming energy definitely kept everyone else mellow and organized.

After the wedding, we were so antsy for the blog post to go live, and couldn't have been more amazed when it did! Betsy not only captured the major moments of our wedding day, but (more importantly) captured the feelings we had while celebrating. So many of the shots during the ceremony are of the wedding party and guests laughing hysterically, while others show the total connection and relief I had once my husband and I were together and could take a breath. They made sure to grab us for some special shots, but also did an awesome job letting us enjoy the day, and documenting those interactions as well. We so appreciate that they made our priorities their own, and provided the professional guidance we needed in order to document the day perfectly.

As I said, not enough words in the world to describe how great these people are. We will absolutely keep in touch and use La Vida in the future!
