What is Boudoir?  

Boudoir technically is a french word which means ‘a woman’s dressing room or bedroom,’ but we like to think of it as just a fancy word for women’s intimate portraiture. Boudoir can be fun, flirty, beautiful, cute, sexy, feminine, intimate, candid, posed or really anything else you want it to be. 

If you have not already joined our Private VIP Group on Facebook, We highly suggest that you do! 

What Do I Do With Boudoir Photos?

We believe that boudoir is the best gift you can give yourself, to capture your essence as you are now. When you need a reminder of the strong, beautiful woman that you are, you have a collection of amazing portraits to look upon.  

We love it when women come to us for themselves. The images we create together will boost your self esteem and your confidence, which should be celebrated by you! It will help you reclaim your feminiity and your sexuality, two things that are often lost in our day to day lives. Lets put that pep in your step and celebrate by owning your beautiful!  

I don’t look like the women on your website.

 We’ll let you in on a little secret… all the women on your website believed they didn’t look like the women on our website! Crazy right? Because here you them being so fierce and so confident. But we can asure you that they were just as nervous and full of self doubt as you are. They allshowed up, put their trust in us, and Andrea couach them through the whole day.  

 There is no such thing as a the perfect body. you are never to big, too small, too old, to do a boudoir session. Boudoir is for Everybody. Let us show you! 

Do you offer hair and makeup?

 Hell -to-the-yes, girl! No boudoir session is complete without a bomb, photo-ready finish. I only hire the very best talen in our area to serve our clients with top level hair nad makeup!

Many of our clients tell us they rarely wear makeup, and/or they have no idea how to apply makeup for the camera. If this is you, then have no fear… we are going to take great care of you and get you the makeup look that suits you and your personality best. 

We have created a beautiful and comprehensive wardrobe guide that should give you the 411 on how to look and feel like a bombshell for your session. Our policy is always when in doubt, bring it! Most sessions incldue 2-3 outfits, so it’s not uncommon for our babes to show up with a duffle bag full of stuff! We will discuss which ones will flatter you most. Feel free to leave tags on incase you’d like to return the ones you didn’t end up shooting in!
