Session Experience & Details

What Makes Gold Coast Boudoir Different

this isn't a photoshoot. it's the day you stop hiding from the mirror

Before you ever set foot in the studio, we talk. A real phone consultation, one-on-one, where I learn what you want this session to mean for you — not just what poses you like. Then you get a full prep guide: wardrobe, skin, hair, how to pick 4-5 looks that feel like you, not like a stock photo.

1. The Experience

I'm a therapist as well as a photographer, and that background shapes every single minute you spend in my studio, whether you are shooting with me or my secondary photographer Kaitlin. I know how women actually feel walking in the door, the second-guessing, the "what if I look ridiculous", the voice that says everyone else looks better in lingerie than you do. I've built a session around dismantling that voice, not around ignoring it. 

Here's what it actually looks like:

From the first time we speak, my goal is to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable with me.  Trust with your photographer is incredibly important for boudoir sessions. Capturing such intimate details of you is a job I take seriously.  My goal is to have you feel like an absolute goddess and leave my studio feeling like a sexy bad-ass.

On the day, you get hair and makeup done by a professional artist — included, not an upsell. Then 2-4 hours where myself or Kaitlin direct every single thing. We'll decide which outfits you'll wear and start your session. We have learned the best ways to pose every woman, as no two woman are the same. We will guide you throughout the session, so don't stress if you've never done this before!
Where your hands go. How you tilt your chin. How to pose your body.  What your face is doing. You don't need modeling experience. You need to show up. I handle the rest.
