the world is your bedroom.
We aren't your average "girls only" boudoir club. We are as unique as the city of New Orleans and proud to call it home. Our style is a mix of light, bright and airy with an edge. We wanted to have a studio that could offer our clients options - from dark and moody to playful and bright. Knowing that every photographer has their own strengths we set out to create a team that could offer a tailored boudoir experience. Our clients have the choice to shoot with the photographer that fits them best, the option to shop our boudoir collective closet and the luxury to have hair and makeup artists available to change their looks throughout the session.
We believe that boudoir extends outside of the bedroom - Now is YOUR time to experience this.

We do same day reveals, this is perfect for all of our clients doing destination New Orleans Boudoir! After your session you’ll have time to go out for lunch or dinner - from there we will go through the roughly 800 images we have taken and narrow them down to your 100 BEST. We will have 2-3 fully edit images for you to get an idea of what things will look like and the rest will be color corrected for you to view. This takes about an 1-1.5 hrs to do, so we will decide on what time you need to return for your in person viewing!
From this point I will take a couple weeks to fully edit all your images that you selected, order the products. It does take a few additional weeks from this point to receive your keepsake products. Once they arrive I will be in touch so that you can pick them up!
Payments are accepted via cash, debit/credit and PayPal.

About your
Boudoir Experience
Before your Shoot.
As soon as your session is confirmed, Tina will send you our Welcome Guide – it includes tips on how to prepare for your session, where to shop and lots more.We recommend that you do a little “homework.” Start a board on Pinterest with photos of the styles you like, makeup and hair looks and a few poses that inspire you. (Make your board private if your session is a secret! You can share your board with me by inviting me to view it before or on the day of your session.)
Before your session we will have our phone consultation to go over any questions you may have and so that we can make sure to have everything ready for you!
GETTING TO KNOW YOU
Along with your welcome guide you'll get our questionnaire, this will help us tailor your session to you! You'll want to complete the client information form pre-session because it helps me get to know a lot more about you; your session vision, your favorite body parts and those you might be a little worried about.
We also get to know each other even better during the time it takes to do your makeup and hair. When you come in, we’ll welcome you with your drink of choice, some music and a chance to relax and take a break from your busy life. We'll talk about everything during that time, like what you’ve brought to wear, how to style it and what order to photograph your outfits in.
HAIR & MAKEUP
When it comes to hair and makeup, we work with the best. Our boudoir coordinator, Tina, has been in the beauty industry working with some of the top artists for over 10 years and she brings her eye for beauty to our team. This is such an intimate investment in yourself so you should look and feel your most beautiful, professional hair and make-up is included in every session and a relaxing way to pamper yourself before the shoot.
During your Shoot.
Are you nervous? Most clients are nervous when they arrive! This is something, fun, exciting and adventurous! Clients tell us all the time that they DON’T KNOW HOW TO POSE! (That’s by far the most common thing we hear!) But don’t worry – we will guide you through each pose and we are hear to make you comfortable and feel beautiful! Here is how we help you to feel most comfortable during your shoot :
Posing
We will have certain poses in mind for your wardrobe and body type and we like to try new poses with each client. We're here to help you pose and can even demo what the pose should look like (which is really great when David poses for you!). We’ll also refer to your inspiration photos if you bring them or to Pinterest. Don’t worry about posing or feeling “funny” – it becomes comfortable for most of my clients within five minutes of getting started!
WARDROBE
You know what you like and you know what looks good and makes you feel sexy, which is why I ask you to bring a wide variety of wardrobe choices. We tell everyone to bring their favorite lingerie, and at least one solid bra & panty set, but really, the sky is the limit. And don't limit yourself to just lingerie. This is a time to have fun and try something you've always wanted to wear. Favorite little dress, coziest sweater, superhero underwear, lace corset, latex jumpsuit, Mardi Gras headdress...I could keep going, but you get the idea. I do suggest you bring more than you think you will need or want, and during our consultations, we can discuss wardrobe in detail.
Nothing to wear?
We have an amazing collection of lingerie, accessories, shoes and jewelry for clients to use for their shoot in our boudoir closet.
After your Shoot.
You'll be starving! We know hardly anyone eats before a session. So after your session you'll have a chance to grab a bite at one of the many awesome restaurants around our studio before heading back up to see your images! That's right, you get to see how good you look that day. We will take our time to go through each image with you and decide on which ones you want to create your books or canvases.
Image Selection
After you grab a bite to eat we will have your images ready to preview - that's right, you'll get to see your images that day! We will go through each image with you to decide which you love the most and trust me this is the hardest part, as most of our clients love EVERY IMAGES! Once we go through the images you'll choose what products you want to purchase and how you want to pay - once this is complete we'll start on your gorgeous album, canvas or usb drive.
RETOUCHING
Our retouching style is very natural and subtle. Our goal is to achieve a great image of you in camera with lighting and posing but sometimes even professional models need a little help. With retouching we remove the distractions, it can be things like flyaway hairs, environmental eyesores (like wall outlets or marks on furniture and bedding) and of course, skin imperfections. If it's something that is temporary, like a blemish or bruise, we will remove it but if it something that is a part of you, we want you to look like the best version of yourself, not someone else. After your session, we'll meet up in our studio to review your images and select your products. Every image you select to purchase is tastefully retouched for the very best results.
Our privacy promise.
We care about your Privacy.
We take your privacy very seriously and will never share your images online or in print without your written consent. Every image you see on the website has been approved by the woman in the photo.
