What is Boudoir Photography?
Boudoir Photography is a celebration of self-love, empowerment, and personal growth. In a society that often restricts and objectifies our bodies, Boudoir photography offers a reflective space for self-expression and reclaiming your own narrative. Boudoir photography is an invitation to step intentionally into your own personal power.
Society Boudoir advocates for self-love and empowerment for femme-identifying individuals through the art of Photography. Our studio is fully LGBTQIA inclusive and also specializes in plus-size Boudoir photography.
Our expertise is to help you remember (or discover) everything that is gorgeous and unique about you. When our time together is complete, you'll feel like the confident, sexy, and beautiful person you are. Boudoir is about celebrating your body as you are right now through the act of rebellious self-love. Why is Boudoir rebellious? We exist in a world that inundates us with messages that we aren't beautiful or worthy of love and sensuality unless we attain an impossible beauty standard. I reject that notion and invite you to as well. My team and I will encourage and guide you on the entire way and we'll have fun exploring what radical self-acceptance looks like for you.
You may come in feeling nervous, but you will leave with a renewed sense of self-confidence and appreciation for your glorious body. Are you ready to channel the sensual individual you know you are deep down? You're in the right place.

journey
I have been on this journey to self love for many years. Trying to be good enough, making the right decisions, showing up and being the perfect friend, sister, daughter, wife, mom…the list goes on and on. Does any of this sound familiar?
I had my own Boudoir shoot in 2020 because I needed to feel amazing again after the everyday challenges of life left me feeling like I was not a priority. I’d been through three c-sections and six rounds of chemo, I was mentally and physically exhausted.
Honestly when my friend and colleague suggested a Boudoir shoot for myself, I didn’t think I had the confidence left in me to pull it off. But they were adamant it would be great for me, so I went for it. My shoot was transformative and I revisit my images daily, they stand as a visual reminder that I am phenomenal at all times.
Before my shoot I was feeling frumpy, and a whole host of unkind adjectives I’d allowed my brain to conjure up. These thoughts kept me humble, and feeling like the funny best friend in a rom-com. My Boudoir Photography experience helped me move into Main Character energy, and the shift has been awesome for me. If any of these feelings resonate with you, there’s no place else in the world to be except my studio. But you can only come into my studio if you’re ready to be pampered. You can only come into the studio if you’re ready to choose yourself and show up for yourself. It’s time to step into main character energy and let me take the best pictures of you you’ll ever see in your life. I can’t wait to show you how gorgeous you are right now.
Be proud of yourself for taking this step towards self-love.
