I loved the photos so much, I cried when I first saw them."
art of you boudoir is amazing!
There are a lot of good Austin boudoir photographers, so what sets us apart from others? With over five years of experience in the portrait industry, we’ve photographed women of all different, shapes, sizes, adult ages, and backgrounds and we’ve learned a thing or two during that time. To help you out, we’ve distilled much of it in four key points below.
1) Your safety & comfort is everything to us. Other than myself, I work with an all-female staff during your session. We have a dedicated changing area and offer a robe in-between sets. Knowing there’s zero risk of running into a sketchy situation during your session can make a world of difference when it comes to your comfort. For something as intimate as this, due diligence is necessary. Bottom line, regardless of a photographer's gender, a true professional will never make you feel uncomfortable.
2) Posing is so important. Here’s the thing, everyone thinks they need to lose five or ten pounds before coming in. You don’t. We promise. The most important thing is a photographer who knows how to direct you into a great pose that flatters your angles. A lot can be hidden through posing and the right outfit. The best photographers understand this and can coach you there with ease. During your session we will walk you through every pose, facial expression and guide you along the way.
3) This is an honed craft. There are a lot of people who have fancy cameras, but making a great picture takes more than expensive gear. It takes experience. An understanding that it’s not your gear that makes a picture, but the person operating it. You can spend all the money in the world on fancy gizmos, but it’s true knowledge of how light, lens choice, angels, and timing affect your results that brings a picture to life. Experience AND talent are key when it comes to making ANY woman look fabulous. Since my journey began, I have attended The Austin School of Photography, Taken dozens of courses and even had the honor of attending The Portrait Masters Conference which is limited to a select number of photographers each year. I am also a member of the Professional Photographers of America Association and am fully licensed.
4) It's all about the ambiance! Where boudoir photographers take their pictures range from hotel rooms, air b&b's, to storefronts. Of course, not all locations are created equal. Here at Art of You Boudoir we host our sessions in our beautiful private in-home studio that is designed specifically for boudoir photography sessions. A place where you can feel safe and comfortable while you enjoy your double makeover, an arrangement of fragrant flowers, and delicious refreshments!

We’ll guide you on what to wear, how to prepare, how to pose, and more. We’ve found that many women whom we have had the opportunity to photograph raved about the empowerment and self-confidence they felt after seeing their portraits for the first time after a session.
Every woman that we photograph has a story, and every story is beautiful and unique in its way.

Will my photos be on the internet? Can they be private?
Absolutely not! Your boudoir session is all about you and making sure we capture images you’ll absolutely LOVE and are comfortable with!
Do I have to be nude?
For all my sessions, I will have an all-female team there to assist me. That being said, you can absolutely bring one girlfriend with you (as long as you'll feel comfortable posing in front of her and she is there to cheer you on). Please note that we do not allow partners in the studio while we are shooting. That's a firm policy.
Who will be present at the shoot?
We recommend that you book your shoot at least 8-10 weeks before you need your pictures delivered. This is a luxury experience and we want you to feel rested, relaxed, and prepared for your session. We also offer the finest quality Albums and Wall Art on the market and they may take up to 4-6 weeks to produce.
