Yup! So, I assume regular boudoir is your classic lingerie on a bed/sofa/floor. Glamorous images that make you say, “I’m that hot?” and “Wait—my ass looks amazing!” I do that and love it. Hell, that’s the kind of session I’ve booked for myself. I’m 100% into it.

Getting started is simple. Reach out through the contact form or book without a call/meeting here.
-
I'm not just capturing a mood, a moment, or one great day—I'm documenting you. I consider myself a storyteller. These images are part of your story. Since everyone is at a different point in their story, with a unique and distinct perception of what feels authentic, I shoot in whatever outfit, set, and posing style makes you feel best.
-
You can reach me anytime via my contact page. You can also text me ay (978) 219-9141—seriously. I aim to respond quickly, usually within one business day.
-
We can absolutely meet first if you’d like! I find that most people, myself included, want to simply book. I trust you’ve done your homework and you’re booking with me because you like my work and what I’m about. If you’re that type of person, start here.
-
Yes.
And it's worth it. This isn't a mini session or a quick shoot. It's a significant investment in a permanent record of who you are right now. Most women tell me it's the best money they've ever spent on themselves
You're not paying for photos—you're paying for a day where everything is about you, the images that come out of it, and the fact that you'll have them forever. That combination doesn't come cheap, and it shouldn't.

Same day, babe. While your hair’s still tousled. Grab some lunch, maybe stroll around nearby Salem, MA or hit up the mall. I need about 3 hours to get your gallery ready for you to select images from.
the process
-
After booking, you’ll receive a Pre-Session guide with answers to all of your questions. I’m not kidding—there is so much info from outfit ideas to insecurities you may have, prepping for the shoot physically and mentally, and examples of the types of images I shoot.
You’ll also have me. I’m available via text or IG if you have any questions or wanna run ideas by me. Build that Pinterest board, then send it my way! Or just get some moral support. I’m here for it.
-
You’ll arrive at your shoot, hand me all of your bags and put on a robe. If you chose to have makeup and/or hair services, you’ll get right in the chair to work with my amazing stylist.
We’ll look through your outfits and decide on your looks. You’ll probably bring more than needed but I can help you narrow them down.
During your shoot, we’ll explore the studio. There are many “sets” to choose from and I’ll pose you throughout if you prefer (some people just wanna move organically or have a little of both).
After the shoot, you’ll head out for a few hours and when you return, you’ll look at your beautiful gallery and choose images.

I have a beautiful, airy studio in an old mill in Peabody, MA. That’s where the majority of my shoots take place. For outdoor shoots, I have a couple great spots in mind but I’m always open to new places.
I’m happy to travel 25 miles. Outside of that, there is a $250 on-location fee.
-
Yes, you can absolutely bring 1 friend along with you. I ask that friends not interfere with the shoot process, but are always welcome to be encouraging from the sidelines.
I do ask that romantic partners not be present for solo shoots. For couples, I want to work only with the clients present.
-
Ahhh, I knew you’d ask. My standard retouching process only involves removal of temporary blemishes such as acne, scrapes, and bruises. I offer skin retouching equivalent to “your skin on its best day.” I do not alter the shape of a body in any way.
The image enhancement process involves contrast, exposure, cropping and background clean-up, as well as black and white conversions. Should you have any specific requests or questions, these conversations are always welcomed and encouraged.
-
Your selected images will be securely delivered via email using PicTime within 24 hours.
-
I don’t believe that your photos should live in a phone so every collection comes with printed art, whether that’s prints, wall art, or luxury albums.
After booking, you’ll have the option to upgrade your collection to include digitals.
-
Not unless you say it’s okay! There’s no pressure either. Every person you see on my website or social media has happily given written permission to post their images.
Privacy is very important to me. If you decide you don’t want them shared, that is completely fine. If you want to give permission, I’d LOVE to share them so others can get an idea of what the experience looks and feels like.
outdoor work
-
In Massachusetts (and many other states), there are strict laws about public nudity. If we’re on your private property, that doesn’t matter—get naked! If we’re on a beach, in a forest, or any other public place, it’s tricky. I suggest you bring nude panties and we cleverly approach topless-ness. Ultimately, it’s your body, your choice.
If you live in a state with relaxed laws, it’s no holds barred!
-
I can travel to just about anywhere! My travel fees are typically around $1500 within the continental U.S.
Local travel fees (anywhere within 3 hours from Boston, MA) are discounted. Anywhere outside the U.S. is a custom price dependent on location.
Travel fees are paid along with the deposit to secure airfare and hotel accommodations as early as possible. If I am already in your preferred location (see my travel dates) the travel fee will be waived.
-
Shooting outside does have more elements to factor in. Typically I’ll look at the weather a few days out and confirm if I’m able to shoot you comfortably. We shan’t be shooting in a hurricane, I assure you.
As for people…I cannot guarantee privacy unless we’re on private property. I do try to choose locations and times of the day that typically stay pretty quiet.
As for bugs, well, that won’t be a problem. My outdoor shoots are limited. I only shoot between October and March because I don’t like ‘em as much as you don’t. Unless we fly to Iceland. Then we can shoot any time of year.
-
You sure can. If you're interested in something more expansive than the three collections, reach out via email, IG, or text, and we'll talk.
