What is boudoir?

Boudoir photography is all about empowering and loving yourself. Stripping yourself of all your insecurities, and allowing yourself to be sexy in a world that tells you not to. A chance for you to free yourself and finally be you.

Where are you located?

Our studio is located in Tuscaloosa, AL. We welcome babes from all over the country and love those who come to us from near and far.

When will I receive my photos?

That depends! Most client prepay and receive digital images the SAME DAY as their session. Products typically take up to 3 weeks to arrive. We typically book up 3 to 6 months in advance so please book accordingly.

Do I have to get

Naked??

?

Hell no! There is absolutely no pressure to remove any layer you feel uncomfortable with. You can be just as sexy in a t-shirt and boy-shorts.

  • Are you sure I can do this
    Yes! We've heard everything from "I'm not pretty enough" to "I'm too fat," and we have no doubt that you can do this. Even if you've never done anything like boudoir photography before, we are here to make you feel comfortable every step of the way. You are enough. We promise you that. These sessions are all about loving yourself. Let us show you how beautiful you are, how gorgeous your body is, and how amazing you truly are! Boudoir does not have a specific size or look — it is for every woman.
  • What if I can't relax?
    We'll tell you this is the case 0% of the time. Walking in the studio full of nerves is 100% normal, but within minutes, that all melts away. During your session we are chatting, and laughing and swapping stories like lifelong bff's. If Justin isn't trying 1 of his 4 jokes, Rachel is attempting to sing and dance. It's an extremely private and relaxing experience, you will feel like you got a work out by the end of it, but it feels DAMN GOOD to walk around naked with zero fucks to give at anyone seeing you naked (by anyone, I mean me). In addition to posing your body, we even instruct you on what to do with your face all the way down to your toes.
  • I have no idea what to wear... HELP!
    We've got you covered! After you book a session, we send you a complete guide to help you shop for the perfect items for you. However, it's just a guide, you have free reign, so be creative as you like! This is your boudoir session. ​ We are also here any time you need me! Text me the outfits you're looking at, text me from the dressing room, whatever you need...I'm here to help! If you still can't find anything you love, DON'T STRESS! We have a client closet with over 300 option for you to choose from and borrow for your session!
  • Can you help with posing?
    We will definitely be directing you all the way down to your fingertips. We'll also show you the back of the camera as you go along. This is how our clients with zero experience manage to get tons of photos that they love... your biggest problem is going to be narrowing them down. ;) We will do all the hard work for you from start to finish. You do not have to worry about a thing and we promise we'll make your experience stress-free and empowering.
  • Will my images be shared online?
    Absolutely NOT!! Your privacy is our #1 concern. While most of our clients are so proud of their images and want them shared all over, we do not require you to do so! These are your photos and we support your privacy. Your images will be kept completely confidential, if requested!
  • Will you edit my photos?
    We choose the best of the best (55-65+) from your session, and lightly edit them. Once you choose your final images for your package, we will complete the final skin retouching and blemish/bruise removal if needed. We do not photoshop body manipulations/change your appearance as we believe these session help you love the body that was made for you!
  • What do I do with the pictures?
    Ummmmm.... LOVE THEM!! You can have digital files, an album, wall art, or a number of other ways to remind yourself daily how amazing you are. No one has to see the images but you, if you choose that. These images, this experience, this is all for you. Having a crappy day? Pull the pictures out and feel better. Hubby going on travel? Slide your album into his suitcase so he has you with him. Have a girlfriend who could benefit from a session the way you did? Whip those puppies out and share your experience with her!
