bou·doir
/ˈbo͞oˌdwär/
noun
a woman's bedroom or private room.
Boudoir Photography is more than just photos in lingerie. It's about feeling comfortable and confident in nothing but lingerie. It's about stepping outside of your comfort zone, and seeing yourself in a new light. The Boudoir experience is more than just a photo session. It is an act of self love, it is empowering, and it is the ultimate confidence booster. I invest extra time into each session to help perfect your wardrobe choices, to make sure you feel prepared and excited, to plan your session to best fit you, and most importantly: to make your experience a fun and memorable one! I pride myself in being fun, yet professional, and having you leave your session with some new found confidence. Your privacy and comfort are my top priorities, next to supplying you with an experience you'll want to do over and over again. My goal is to provide you with exceptional service, a fun and empowering photo session, and luxurious products for you to cherish. We as women need to put the word 'perfect' aside, and acknowledge that we all have flaws. It's time for us to embrace those flaws, accentuate our strengths, and toss our insecurities to the side.
I run with an all female staff, and you & I are the only people present during your shoot; unless you were to bring a friend, which is totally acceptable and welcome! Each session is with a professional, experienced, and trained Boudoir Photographer. I have 13 years of experience photographing beautiful women of all shapes and sizes. Invest in yourself, you deserve this!
Our session fees include professional hair & makeup, a 60-90 in-studio session, access to our client closet, up to 3 outfit choices, a reveal appointment 2-3 weeks after your session, and professional editing and retouching. All albums, digitals, products, & collections are sold separately. Session fee - $399

A: Yes! We have an ongoing growing client closet with more than 275 pieces, that you are more than welcome to use! Each outfit is disinfected and cleaned after ever use.
A: You can bring something of your own, or use something out of our client closet! I recommend supplying at least one outfit of your own that you love, before relying fully on the client closet.
A: You get up to 2 outfit changes, so 3 outfits total! If you request to photograph nude, this does count as an outfit choice.

A: No problem! Every client signs a release form either granting or declining sharing rights. No images are shared on our website or any social media platform without your written and signed consent!
A: Once you arrive, we will bring you back to hair and makeup, pour you a drink (water, coke, sprite, wine, and mimosas are always on hand!), and we will start glamming! Once hair and makeup is complete, we will go over what outfits and sets you would like to use, and we begin shooting!
A: Yes! Bringing a friend is welcome and encouraged! (Max: 1 guest)
A: Your reveal appointment is made 2-3 weeks after your session date. You will come back to the studio to view your images, and choose your favorites. This is when any products or albums are ordered. If you are taking advantage of our payment plan options, products and albums will not be ordered until final payment is complete.
Wardrobe can make or break your session. It is one of the most important parts of your Boudoir Experience. Once your session is confirmed, you will receive our prep-guide with tips for a successful Boudoir experience, as well as our favorite places to shop!
