Why should I even do a boudoir shoot?
That’s sacred. That’s yours.
But I can tell you why some other women gave themselves permission to finally say yes to something that scared them, but made them feel brave.
- Because they wanted something that had nothing to do with anyone else.
- Because they were grieving, or healing, or blooming.
- Because they had survived something, and needed to see it on their skin.
- Because they were celebrating an anniversary, a birthday, a milestone.
- Because their friend wouldn’t shut up about how life-changing it was for them.
- Because the sun was out and so were their thighs.
- Because their confidence had been cracked, and they wanted to rebuild it with gold.
And sometimes because it just felt like time.
No reason, no occasion. Just a knowing.
this is your mirror moment.
It’s about seeing yourself in new light and saying:
“There you are.”
Before you book, I invite you to set your intention:
Why now?
What are you hoping to reclaim, express, or remember?
There is no wrong answer.
There is only truth, and I’m here to capture it.
- A pre-session consultation to set the tone. Got an idea? This is where we’ll discuss!
- My Confidence Toolkit + The Afterglow post-session guide. We get you in the right mindset from the very beginning, and then we tell you how to continue feeling that way.
- Outfit & styling support that feels like shopping with your bestie. This is about you, let’s make sure you feel your best.
- A 60–90 minute intentional session. I don’t put a time limit on you, just whenever we get done!
- Professional posing guidance from me. I demonstrate every pose, and make sure you’re in place from head to toe.
- Professional retouching for your photos. I have a 3 month rule- if it won't be there in 3 months, I'll remove it. I do skin smoothing and light corrections. I don't typically do any body modifications that would actually change what you look like.
- A same-day reveal where we go through your images and design your custom order.

After the Session:
Art + Image Selection
Here’s where we get to bring your story to life! We'll sit down together and create intentionally chosen, artful products designed to last.
Your $500 session fee covers the experience, but not the images themselves.
Why?
Because I’m not a "just a few digitals" photographer. I’m a product-based photographer who believes your transformation deserves to live beyond the graveyard of your phone.
I’ve built this experience around gorgeous, tangible heirlooms that remind you of who you are, over and over again.
The kind of pieces that stop you in your tracks when you walk past them.
That whisper: “Look at you.”

Payment & Policies
To keep everything smooth and respectful of both our time, I ask that you prepay a $900 minimum product purchase at least 30 days before your session.
This isn't an extra fee. It's simply credit toward whatever artwork or images you choose after your shoot. Think of it as a down payment on the beautiful things you’ll take home.
I accept Klarna, Affirm, all major credit cards, and also offer custom in-house payment plans. We can split your payments up in a way that works for you.
You’ll have two weeks after booking to get your payment plan set up. You don’t have to make any additional payments during that window—just let me know your plan.
If a plan isn’t set up within two weeks, your session will be canceled, and anything paid so far (including the session fee) will be forfeited. A new retainer would be required to rebook.
This policy makes sure everything flows smoothly for both of us—and helps you feel fully committed to this experience from the start.

THE SESSION
05
From the time you book in until the morning of your session we are prepping! You'll receive a pre-session consultation to really lock in those tiny details, wardrobe and styling help, my pre-session confidence toolkit, which includes TONS of mindset guidance and help, and so much more. I want you to be so prepared you could run the show before you get here!
Pre-Session Prep
04
After booking in for a session, the next step is setting up your presession payment plan! This must be done within two weeks of booking, and you're bonus sets and add on's need to be selected here, just to be sure I have ample amounts of time before your session to get everything in order!
Payment Plan Set Up
03
Read through all of the information I have to offer, scroll through the calendar, and choose a date that works for you! I book up to a year out, so keep that in mind if you'll be setting up a payment plan. All payment plans must be complete 30 days prior to session. Once you get your date locked in, you'll receive the contract and invoice for the retainer! You are not booked until this is signed and paid. Once that is complete, you've booked your boudoir session!
Book
02
You wake up one day, and you decide "This is it. Today is the day I book the session." Or maybe it snuck up on you. Maybe you saw an ad, or a post, or a friend mentioned me in passing. Either way, I'm proud of you and I"m so excited for you for taking such a scary first step!

Boudoir Session Timeline
Ready to Book?
When you choose a session date, it will be held for 2 hours to give you time to complete your booking. After that, it will be released and offered to the next person in line.
Your spot is not officially booked until both your contract is signed and your retainer is paid. This will be emailed to you as soon as a date is selected.
This policy protects your time and mine, and keeps the process flowing for everyone.
So if you’re feeling the pull… let’s make it official. 🖤
