A Little About My Journey

I have been photographing professionally since May 2023, with a deep dive into boudoir photography beginning in early 2024. My background includes over a decade of customer service experience, which has greatly shaped how I connect with clients and create a comfortable, empowering environment.

Boudoir photography is incredibly precious to me because it allows me to help women feel better about themselves, both inside and out. We all struggle with self-image at times, and my goal is to help women overcome as much of that as I can. I absolutely love the WOW factor—the moment when women see their images and say, "I can't believe that's me! I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life!"

It's a true honor to offer this experience and to have women of all ages trust me to capture their beauty. You don’t need to lose 15 pounds or fit into a specific body type to do a session with me. All you need is to be yourself, have fun, and enjoy this moment. You won’t regret it!

Thank you so much for being here and supporting my amazing business! I can't wait to meet you and create some of the most gorgeous photographs you've ever had of yourself.

Where are you Located?

My studio is based in La Grande, Oregon, where I create a comfortable, private space dedicated to making you feel confident and celebrated. From May to October, I also offer outdoor sessions all around Union County, capturing the magic of golden hour against the breathtaking valley backdrop. For clients who want a change of scenery, I’m happy to travel outside the area for an additional fee.

So, What is Boudoir? 

Boudoir technically is a French word which means 'a woman's dressing room or bedroom', but I like to think of it as just a fancy word for women's intimate portraiture. Boudoir is NOT pornographic. Boudoir can be fun, flirty, beautiful, cute, sexy, feminine, intimate, candid, posed, or really anything else you want it to be.

 

If you haven’t already, I’d love for you to join my private ladies-only Facebook group! It’s a great place to connect and get inspired.

What can you do with boudoir portraits?

I truly believe boudoir is one of the best gifts you can give yourself—it's about capturing your essence as you are right now. When you need a reminder of just how strong and beautiful you are, you’ll have a collection of amazing portraits to look back on.

I absolutely love when women come to me for themselves. The images we create together are all about boosting your self-esteem and confidence, and celebrating YOU! Boudoir helps you reclaim your femininity and sexuality—things that can get lost as we dive into our daily routines, jobs, and family life. It’s time to put that pep back in your step and celebrate the bodacious babe you are. Embrace and reflect on the incredible body you live in!

I don't look like the women in your portfolio!

There is no such thing as the perfect body. You are never too big, too small, too old, too young (well, I only accept boudoir clients who are 18+) to do a boudoir session. Boudoir is for every BODY. Let me show you.

Can you make me look thinner?

My goal is to help you feel beautiful just as you are. I use fantastic lighting and posing techniques to highlight your best ass-ets (see what I did there). I don’t believe in heavy photoshopping—while I’ll certainly take care of things like bruises and pimples, I want to show you how stunning you are right now. We’re all bombarded with unrealistic body images in the media, so it’s important to me that you see your real, beautiful self.

What about retouching?

Absolutely, I'm happy to retouch your images! I'll remove things like pimples, bruises, and under-eye circles, and I offer retouching for things like cellulite, scars, and small tattoos if you’d like. Many of my clients are amazed at how great their images look straight out of the camera and choose minimal retouching. It’s all about what feels right to you once you’ve seen your photos.

Please note, I don’t remove tan lines or correct skin tones from tanning beds or spray tans, so please keep that in mind.

What Will I Wear?

I’m in the process of creating a client closet, but for now, I ask that you bring your own outfits. Don’t worry—this is your chance to express your unique style! 

Here are a few tips

Wear What Makes You Feel Confident

Choose outfits that highlight your favorite features.


Mix Textures and Styles

Consider bringing a variety of looks, like lace, silk, or cozy robes.


Bring a Few Options 

Having multiple outfits lets us find what works best for you.


Keep Accessories Simple

Minimal accessories are usually best.

If you’re unsure about what to wear or need some inspiration, I’m more than happy to offer guidance.

Do I Get to Talk to You Before My Session?

Absolutely! Before your session, we’ll chat over the phone to go over all the details and get to know each other a bit better. I’m here for you every step of the way to make sure you feel prepared and comfortable. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Who Will Be There on the Day of My Session?

Just you and me! It’s our time to create something special.

(Depending on the type of session I do sometimes have an assistant with me.)

Please note: No props or weapons are allowed during the session.

I also don’t allow guests, spouses, children, or pets at any of your appointments—this time is all about you.

What types of boudoir sessions do you offer?

Yes, there are different types of boudoir sessions you can book—and oh girl, we're always keeping it fresh! Here’s what I’m currently offering:

Traditional Studio Sessions

Outdoor Boudoir Sessions (Specific Months of the Year)

Themed Sessions 

Coming Soon
Couples Boudoir Sessions (You + Your Partner)
After Dark Sessions (Think 50 Shades of Grey)
Themed Mini Sessions (Limited Availability)

Have something else in mind? Ask me! I am always up for new adventures.

How do I choose what kind of session I want to do?

Most people for their first time will opt for a Traditional Session, but we can discuss this more during your booking consultation. 

How does this work??

We’ll start with a pre-session consultation to go over all the details of your session. If you choose an outdoor session, it will be scheduled in the evening just before sunset. For studio sessions, we’ll plan for the afternoon. Each session lasts about 2 hours, with roughly 1 hour dedicated to shooting. Be prepared for a bit of soreness afterward; the session involves quite a bit of bending and twisting—it's a fun workout!

About 3 to 4 weeks after your session, we’ll have your viewing session. This is when you’ll see your images for the first time and can choose any products you'd like to purchase. Viewing sessions typically take 1 to 2 hours. Please come ready to pay in full unless you're opting for one of our payment plans (more details on this will be coming your way soon!). If you’re outside of Northeastern Oregon, we’ll do a reveal over Zoom or FaceTime.

How long does it take to get the albums and prints back?

Your beautiful images ready to go about 6-8 weeks after your viewing session. Once your products arrive, I’ll review everything for quality and accuracy before we schedule a quick pick-up appointment. This 10-15 minute appointment will allow us to go through all your products together and make sure you're thrilled with them. If you’re outside of Northeastern Oregon, I’ll ship your order directly to you. If you choose digital images, you’ll receive a USB that you can bring back anytime to order additional products.

So What do I Need to do to Book?

The Session Fee is $350 and is required to reserve a space on my calendar.

The Session Fee Includes

Pre-Session Consultation
Client Prep Guide
Up to a Two Hour Session
Posing Guidance
Retouching on All Final Images
Image Viewing Session

**All images & products are purchased separately from the Session Fee at the Viewing Session**

I need my images by XX date, when should I book?

I typically book sessions 3 to 12 months in advance, and keep in mind that our printed products can take up to 8 weeks for delivery. If you have a special occasion or a holiday in mind, I recommend booking as early as possible—up 12 months in advance—to ensure everything is perfectly timed for your special occasion.

Can my spouse / friend / mom come to my session or my appointments?

For the best experience, I do not allow guests during your session or appointments. Having guests can sometimes create distractions or make the atmosphere less relaxed. To ensure you get my full attention and the most enjoyable experience, I like to keep sessions one-on-one.

What can I expect to spend at my Viewing Session?

Before we create your images, it's tough for me to give an exact figure on what to expect. Some clients choose a basic album, while others invest in a variety of products, spending several thousand. What you decide to spend is entirely up to you. You'll have the option to choose from our Collection Menu or the A La Carte Menu, which will be sent to you once your booking is complete.

What I can say is this, if you are looking for a "quick shoot" or "just a few images," this is not the session for you. I offer a complete experience, presenting you with 50-75 final images that will be printed on luxury products. It is certainly an investment, one that is worth its weight in gold. You'll never tire of looking at your images or forget the way the session day made you feel.

My albums begin at $900 and go all the way up to $2100.
My Product Collections begin at $1300.

 

Have sticker shock? No worries, I know that this experience is an investment and therefore I offer several different payment plan options. You can split up the cost of any of my products via my interest free in-house payment plan and make smaller monthly or weekly payments towards your purchase leading up to your session (usually 6-12 months) or you can get financing through PayPal Credit using the link below.

I truly hope you've enjoyed reading this guide, and it's left you feeling excited about the thought of having your very own session with me! Please feel free to ask me ANY questions, I want you to be 100% comfortable and EMPOWERED during your session!

I can't wait to chat with you soon!
