Why Choose Buxom Boudoir?
I offer boudoir sessions that prove all bodies are good bodies.
Boudoir is All I Do
Boudoir is what I do. It's what I specialize in, and I believe these sessions are far more than "pretty pictures." Because boudoir is the only genre I photograph, I can hone my skills to make sure my clients are getting the absolute most out of their sessions. I include mindset work in my sessions, we're going to talk about your inner critic, and we're going to full on celebrate the things your body has accomplished. You may think you're just showing up to get sexy photos, but you're going to leave my studio with a newfound appreciation for your body.
You get the full experience here. I'm at your beck and call so you are fully cared for during your session. You won't have to left a finger (but you may need to lift a booty cheek!) When is the last time you had a moment to simply enjoy existing in your body without fear or judgement? When is the last time you had several hours to do that? You'll get that at Buxom Boudoir.

Buxom Boudoir sessions aren't cash grabs I plan around Valentine's Day or Christmas. They aren't quick add ons to wedding photography to make an extra buck. There's actually nothing quick about my sessions because every client deserves time to explore their thoughts and feelings about their body. There's consulting, questions and answers, mental prep tips, and a heck of a lot of joy and laughter in these sessions. That's what boudoir should be.
I Understand My Clients Because I've Been There
​I photograph a lot of different people with different stories and backgrounds. The majority feel self-conscious about some part of their body, and I understand that. I spent years hating my weight, my belly, my cellulite and my scars. I know what it feels like to "fall short" of a beauty ideal...and I also know how KICKASS it feels to break free from that belief. Dealing with chronic pain has taught me a lot about accepting our bodies when they change without our consent. There's frustration and confusion. I get that, too! Whether you're already confident in your body or you're building towards that, I get it. My sessions reflect that empathy, and we can celebrate your body or help you heal your relationship with it. ​
There's a special place in my heart for plus size clients because I'm plus size. I've struggled with my fatness (and yes, I'm going to use that as a neutral descriptor here) because I believed that I was worth more as a person if I was smaller. I could be loved easier; I'd be accepted more. I would poke and prod at my rolls and big thighs, and one day I realized I was wasting so much time doing that. I can be happy, I deserve respect, and I am a valuable human being - even in a fat body! It took a long time for me to have that epiphany, and I love working with plus size clients who want to feel the same. If you're plus size and you don't feel like you belong in a boudoir studio, let me tell you - YOU DO! You belong here. I have furniture that will work for you, wardrobe in your size and posing that's going to make you feel awesome!
