Whether you have a section in your closet dedicated to spicy bedroom-wear or one sort-of-lacy bra is as far as you’ve ventured down that road, my boudoir photography is made for you!

Welcome to the Lavender Lounge Luxury Boudoir experience, where you can surround yourself with the calming scent of lavender, sprinkle yourself in rose petals, and drop jaws with your powerful gaze. From feminine and romantic to strong and sultry, we can capture any mood and suit any vision. With my expert prompts and poses, you’ll look your absolute best while celebrating your unique, beautiful body. Yes, even if you have that one feature that makes you self-conscious. You deserve to kick back, sip champagne, and have the attention on you for a day.

From casual, cozy-sweatered looks in your classic Calvin Kleins to lounging in teddies and Louboutins fit for a queen, I’m all about celebrating what makes you you. I don’t believe boudoir sessions should ever feel cookie-cutter, so whether you’re hoping to keep it modest, to let your inner sexy goddess free for a day or create a work of art suited for museum displays, let’s work together to custom-craft a session that fits your needs and comfort zone. With a customizable, true-to-you experience, your boudoir session can deliver the fun, glammed-up feel you want along with the showstopping photos of your dreams!

You’re in the right place!

ONE: SAY HELLO
Anywhere from 3 to 12 months before your ideal session date, send me an inquiry with some details on who you are and what you’re looking for in a boudoir experience.

TWO: GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER
The next step is to connect over the phone. Boudoir sessions are incredibly fun, but it’s completely normal to feel a bit shy and nervous when you first begin the planning process. So, I’ll fill you in on my process and answer any questions and concerns you may have. Then, if you decide I’m the right fit, I’ll collect your session fee right there over the phone, email you the receipt and contract, and your session will go on the calendar!

THREE: PLAN YOUR BIG MOMENT
You'll receive a session guide and on your pre-session Zoom, we'll plan your hair and makeup, (provided in-studio before your session). Together, we’ll craft a showstopping session just for you!

FOUR: SHOOT DAY!
I’ll direct you with the prompts and poses you need to shine. When the session is over, you’ll leave feeling confident and powerful and a goodie bag to keep the luxury experience going!

FIVE: GALLERY REVEAL
A week later, we'll meet back at the studio where you'll get to see your beautiful images for the first time! Filled with 60+ stunning photos, your gallery will give you a vast selection to choose from when creating your album and selecting prints. 

SIX: THE FINAL PRODUCT
About four weeks after your gallery reveal, your gorgeous, heirloom quality products will arrive! As testaments to your confidence and beauty, these photos will forever preserve who you are during this once-in-a-lifetime chapter in your life.

QUESTION 1: WHAT IF I WANT TO KEEP MY IMAGES?
I offer albums in a variety of sizes, metal prints, and sets of matted prints. However you hope to display your photos, I look forward to creating it with you! The average client invests $4500-5500.

QUESTION 2: DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
I offer customizable pre-session payment plans that ensure you’ve paid in full by session day. These can be adjusted any way that works for you, as long as all the payments are complete by the date of your session. And you can upgrade your image and album collection at any time, even on the day of the gallery reveal!

QUESTION 3: HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK MY SESSION?
I recommend booking 3-6 months in advance, but I’ve had clients book up to a year in advance before! So, please reach out ASAP to ensure we can schedule your session.

QUESTION 4: IS HAIR AND MAKE UP PROVIDED?
Yes! I complimentary hair and makeup service is provided by a licensed cosmetologist to all of my boudoir clients. The last thing you need to be worried about before your session is how to execute the perfect smokey eye! So, we’ll chat beforehand about your hair and makeup vision to ensure the stylist can come prepared.

QUESTION 5: CAN YOU EDIT OUT SOME OF THE THINGS ABOUT MY BODY THAT I'M NOT CONFIDENT ABOUT?
Your session fee comes with airbrushing and fine art editing, so I’m happy to edit out anything that makes you feel less than your best. However, I prefer to work with you to pose in ways that conceal or draw attention away from any areas you’d rather not see highlighted and show off features that you love. I want you to know that the beautiful woman in the photo is truly you.

QUESTION 6: WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Styling your session can actually be one of the most difficult parts of the whole process, because there are so many options out there! That is why I include a few pages on lingerie in by session guide. Knowing what suits your body type and what lingerie works well for you will help you decide what to wear! You'll have access to my client closet as well, but I always recommend bringing something out of the box from Rent The Runway! Prior to your session, we'll meet in person or on Zoom to review your options and put your mind at ease about your time in front of the camera.

KIND WORDS

Cammie J.

"Ladies!!!!!! Are you thinking about booking a boudoir shoot but want to wait until you lose weight or get more toned or get more tan or whatever else? DON’T WAIT! Doing the boudoir shoot made me fall in LOVE with my body. There was a point during the shoot that I actually said out loud “omg, I can’t believe that’s me, I love my body!” I can’t recommend Michelle enough. She’s the absolute best and one of the kindest souls I’ve met. She’ll make you fee comfortable and fierce at the same time. Do the damn thing!!"
