Maternity Boudoir is so much more than putting on pretty lingerie and taking pictures.
Pregnancy is an incredible transformation for you, your life, and your body. It’s time to stop thinking that those changes are something to be ashamed of. Celebrate your strength with an unforgettable portrait experience, because let’s be real: Pregnancy is sexy!
"She made me feel so comfortable and sexy."
"I thoroughly enjoyed my session with Stephanie. I did a maternity boudoir session (talk about stepping out of your comfort zone), but she made me feel so comfortable and sexy.
The quality of the pictures and prints was very impressive. She also provided lots of detailed information ahead of time that helped me prepare. I plan on doing it again someday and I will definitely be booking with Stephanie. I feel she is a true professional of her craft and is worth every penny I spent."
-Tina
I still have to tell MYSELF that my body is worthy, too. After pregnancy, my body changed … and it totally took me by surprise. I was hard on myself, and my partner at the time thought it was ok to cut me down because of my size.
I absorbed a lot of negative messages about my body while I was struggling with my new identity as a mom... and I'm still on my own self-confidence journey.
No matter your size or shape, I will pose you in a way that brings out your best features. You deserve to have photos that make you feel like you can conquer the world, and I want to be the photographer that helps you get them!
"She truly becomes your friend."
"Stephanie far exceeded my expectations. The poses were all comfortable and easy to do at 32 weeks pregnant but were still the gorgeous boudoir style. Stephanie shared in the love and excitement with me, adding to her ever-loving personality. I can’t say enough about how great Stephanie is as a person – she truly becomes your friend through the milestones that you share with her. When I went back to look at the photos, I was blown away. It was so hard to choose as I sat there staring in awe at images of pure love and emotion."
"I am forever grateful for Stephanie’s talents and to know her. I highly
recommend her for both regular boudoir sessions AND for maternity boudoir. I’ve never felt more beautiful."

Natural Light
My favorite part about the studio is the natural sunlight! I shoot boudoir sessions during the brightest part of the day when there’s gorgeous, vivid lighting. It will make your skin glow, your eye color pop, and your hair shine without an ounce of editing
Finishing Touches
I handpick every item for the space. The high-end furniture, 7-foot mirror, plush bed coverings, throw pillows, and my clawfoot tub (named Clawdia!) … it all makes the studio feel intimate and cozy. And because I’m constantly changing the furnishings and layout, we’ll have plenty of background options to play with so your session is just as unique as you are!
Client Wardrobe
Simple is sexy. You don’t have to look like someone you aren’t to feel beautiful and sensual. A cute set of matching undies and bra or an elegant bodysuit can go a long way. I offer a variety of lingerie pieces in sizes XS-3X complimentary with EVERY session! I want to take the worry out of shopping... because I know how difficult and stressful shopping for lingerie can be.
