This is boudoir for EVERY WOMAN and the EVERY DAY WOMAN.
Our boudoir is for the everyday woman to fall in love with herself again.
GOT IT? NOW IT’S TIME TO SEE WHAT BOUDOIR MEANS FOR YOU…
And that’s exactly why I was doing this, for the last 14 years I’ve been mom, I’ve been nurse, and that was my life and in the process I lost me. I lost who I was, I lost the woman, the individuality of myself.
It was about finding myself.
The whole experience was phenomenal.
Everyone just made me feel so relaxed and comfortable, a bunch of woman empowering another woman to find herself, it was perfect.
It’s a complete embracing of the moment and letting your guard down because Ella and Sammi made me feel so welcome and so happy to be doing this, it’s just a beautiful experience all the way around.
Finishing up the photoshoot I felt empowered, strong, confident, free, pleased – all good things, nothing else but good.
When I first saw the photos I kept thinking that is me!
I felt so good. I got emotional about it.
This is something for me that I will hold near and dear for the rest of my life!
It was very easy!
From the moment I came in I felt very comfortable with Ella and Sammi. It was very empowering and the things I was worried about the most are the best part of the photographs. I felt confident. I felt empowered.
I would say it’s really scary the thought of it; you’re gonna worry about what does your body look like or how did it turn out and that’s why finding people you trust and seeing their work was really helpful, I would do it again in an absolute heartbeat.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone do work like she does, I don’t think I ever will either. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with any type of art or photography in my life.
My experience was super comfortable, I felt good. I was just excited to sit down and really see the pictures. I knew that she would actually add some art to that, so, there was nothing going on in my head. It was pure excitement.
Everyone is nervous and it is to be expected!
We describe it like getting on a roller coaster, you’ve talked yourself into doing it, you are in line and are beyond excited and then when you get on the ride and you are going up the hill all the nerves hit and you start panicking a little, but the moment it drops you are having so much fun that by the time you get off you want to go again. And the fun part is, no matter how many times you ride the ride you still feel the same nerves, but you push through them.
The best things in life are the ones that you felt nervous about because you were stepping out of your comfort zone and making a change. Don’t worry though, we are here for you through the entire process and once you see your photos you are going to laugh at how ridiculous those nerves felt. We cannot wait for that moment you see yourself.
Your boudoir session will take place in our private studio located in St. Augustine Florida. We want our clients to have the best experience and feel comfortable being themselves so we only book one session at a time. We also have the included hair and makeup done in studio to allow you to relax and settle in the space.
With that said, for our country girls and nature lovers who have always dreamt about an outdoor boudoir session, please let us know during inquiry as we have limited availability for our outdoor boudoir photoshoots on our farm.
We will absolutely tell you how to pose and where to look. You are hiring experts for a reason.
All you have to do is show up and have fun!
When we say we take care of you we mean it. All our sessions include hair and makeup, you do not have to do a thing. Just show up with a fresh face and clean and dry hair and we will take care of the rest. You are here to relax and have fun!
No. You are beautiful as you are right now. We have a lot of experience working with curvy and plus size women and we can tell you – it DOES NOT matter what your size is when it comes to posing, lighting, and photographing you in the most flattering way possible, in a way that stays true to the authentic sexy that you are. Posing is an art form and our clients benefit from our years of experience posing all different body types! We pose our clients to bring to light their true beauty. Remember boudoir is for EVERY WOMAN and you deserve to feel sexy, stand out, and celebrate all of you!
We ONLY work with everyday women. All pictures on this website are showing our real boudoir clients. These are the same women who had the same fears as you. They are the ones who said I won’t look like the women on your website, I am nervous in front of the camera, I’m worried I won’t like anything afterwards.
And guess what? They loved all of their photos, they pushed through their nerves and had an amazing time, and now you are looking at their photos and saying I wish I could be like them.
The only difference between you and them is they’ve already had their session, so now it’s your turn, are you ready?
I was born and raised in the most beautiful country, South Africa. I love the outdoors and cooked food over an open fire is very much home to me. I’ve found my home in Florida where everyday I get to wake up on a beautiful farm. Where my dogs are already scratching at the door to go run free, the chickens are the background noise to my mornings, and my mini donkeys make me smile with joy everyday. I believe that women can be everything they want to be. I will always be the farm girl from South Africa who runs barefoot and finds peace in nature and God, who can rock leggings, a t-shirt, and a little too much dirt from cuddling donkeys and gardening. But I am also the same woman who takes time to get a mani pedi even if they only last a few days, wears makeup any time I go out, and has a closet with more dresses than I can wear out in the country. I am strong, I am a little stubborn, and I feel blessed.
I’m the woman who believes in joy and happiness, who wants to feel peace and wants to see beauty in every aspect of my life. I want to not only create but showcase that beauty for everyone else to see.
My passion is for helping women not only see their own beauty and strength, but feel it. Our studios specializes in elegant images for women and contemporary portraits. Our goal is to help women feel liberated, authentic, and celebrate their joy in life.
At Florida’s #1 boudoir photography studio, women feel validated in their own skin without being judged or restricted during their photography sessions with us. We love the empowering experience we provide to our clients and feel every woman deserves this experience.

Whether you’ve been wanting to do this forever or you just saw this and said “This is for me!” You want to do a boudoir photoshoot for a reason and that reason is what we want to bring to life. Your consultation is the perfect kickstart to make your session a reality. We will go over all the details, get an idea of what makes you feel beautiful, and answer any questions you have.

From our natural babes, to our goth girls, we’ve done it all. Our team can create looks that are as subtle or bold as you want.
Here is our secret, over 80% of the women you see on our website told us they were nervous about doing a session because they feel “uncomfortable and awkward” in front of the camera, that they had no idea how to pose. Trust us, we get it, there is a reason we are behind the camera! We know what that feeling is like and that is why we are experts at posing. We want every client to see themselves as beautiful, empowered, and truly focus on what makes them feel the best!
This is our favorite part, it’s the moment we’ve been looking forward to since our first call. The reactions our clients have to their photos is the best. Can you imagine the first time you see yourself without judgement and only love? You see yourself the way others do… You see your beauty, your strength. You are reminded of how beautiful you are. It is the best and you are going to walk out of our studio going “This is me”
