Boudoir is for

Every BODY

Fun fact! A boudoir photo shoot isn’t about posing in lingerie. Most people think it is, but I’m here to tell you it’s not!

It’s about celebrating YOU and what makes you feel empowered, sexy, playful, and unique! It’s not a number on the scale, the color of hair, or “perfect” skin that makes a photo… it’s YOU.

I want to bring YOU to life in a photoshoot guaranteed to make you feel glamorous!

It’s Not Just Lingerie!

People think boudoir, and immediately, their minds go to that sexy little number (with tags probably still on it!) that’s been hiding in the top drawer.

But that’s not all it is! Boudoir is a state of mind, a feeling, and a way for you to connect with your inner spark and show it off in a luxury setting.

Every shoot I do is designed to make my clients feel as confident and comfortable as possible. We’ll walk through not only what to wear but to expect. By the time you step foot into my studio, you’ll feel ready to show off this amazing side of yourself!

From Tips to Toes!

Booking a session with me means I’ll help walk you through every aspect of the session. From hair to make-up and down to the best music to help get you connected to yourself!

A big part of a shoot is clothing. My tips help you figure out exactly what makes you feel secure but confident. And it can be anything! From a sexy dress to a man’s shirt, or a swimsuit, even yoga pants and your favorite band tee!

We’ll chat through everything, so by the time you step in front of the camera, your confidence will be shining through!

Your BOUDOIR PHOTOSHOOT Includes

What to Wear Guide & Consultation

Don't know how to get ready for your photoshoot, don't worry! I will walk you through everything you need to do to have the most amazing photoshoot. From what to wear, where to shop, and how to prepare, I'll be there to help you every step of the way!

Fully-Guided Magazine-Style Photoshoot

Your session will be fully directed. I will show you how to pose, what expressions to do, etc. I use state-of-the-art lighting and offer amazing setups that are inspired by magazines like Vanity Fair.

Most clients mix in a variety of headshots, boudoir, and glamour photos into their photoshoot. Some clients are photographed by themselves, while others decide to bring their best friend, sister, significant other, mom, etc. to share the experience with them (it’s all up to you)!

Professional Hair & Makeup Styling

Hair and makeup done by our styling team is included with your booking. This is your chance to decompress before your session and be pampered. We specialize in natural looks that elevate your natural beauty - so don't be afraid (even if you don't normally wear makeup!).

Ordering Appointment, Heirloom & Custom Products

After your photoshoot, we will go through all of the photos from your session. You’ll get to choose your favorites and what you love you can decide to purchase. I will walk you through the best options for your images, whether that be wall art, an album, or both!

frequently asked questions

Do you provide outfits or help me figure out what to wear?

Yes and no... I do not provide any lingerie due to sanitary reasons. BUT I do have some pieces at the studio you're welcome to use. These are pieces that go OVER any lingerie or underwear you bring. The studio wardrobe has basic items like button down shirts and robes as well as specialty pieces like the angel wings, tulle robes, etc.

I will guide you through what to wear, how to find outfits, and what you can use that you may already own for your session, so you have nothing to worry about there :)

I've never done a photoshoot before and I don't know how to pose. Will you help me?

Yes of course! My job as your photographer is to guide you through the whole experience. Like 95% of my clients have never had a proper photoshoot before (or if they have, it's been since the days of Glamour Shots)!

I will show you how to move your body and pose you down to the pinky. No worries about "what do I do with my hands" or "I'm worried about having a double chin" or not having photos turn out because you didn't bring a list of poses. I've been a photographer for nearly half of my life now and know how to pose ALL body types and modify poses based on your range of mobility and goals.

Do you offer professional hair & makeup styling?

Yes, included with your session is professional hair and makeup. I have vetted all of my stylists so they can work with all skin types, ages, etc. And yes, this includes being able to work with natural hair.

Can I bring someone with me to the session?

Yes of course! As long as the person you are bringing is a nice, supportive person. In fact, most of my clients bring a friend to share the day with. You don't have to be photographed together necessarily, but could do back to back sessions with maybe a few images taken together in between.

I always say: a day shared is often more fun and even more special.

What kinds of products do you offer?

I have offer a variety of custom and heirloom products. The most popular items are digital files, wall art, and albums.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes I do! We offer them as layaway plans with no interest. This means you can pay off your order over time, and when your payment is finalized you will receive your products.
