The EXPERIENCE
A Femme Patronne intimate portrait session is a collaborative experience that is tailored to celebrate you. No two portrait sessions are the same because every client is unique and has different wants and desires. The goal of our collaboration is to make art and you are the muse. Intimate portraits involve some state of undress and yet the creative direction can be more towards fashion, lifestyle, or fine art, to name a few. Wearing lingerie is not a requirement so you are completely free to embrace this modern approach to boudoir photography.
Capturing intimate portraits is discovering what you love about yourself. Throughout the portrait journey you may find yourself gently stepping outside your comfort zone while you contemplate and explore how you want to be photographed. The experience is often about redefining who you are while tapping into the playful, sexy, and artistic aspects of your personality. Go ahead, be spontaneous and as daring as you want to be.
Our team is here to support you every step of the way. The experience begins with a consultation to discuss your vision, preferences, and goals for the photoshoot. This includes choosing outfits, themes, styling, and sets to create a diverse portfolio of gorgeous photographs. The photoshoot is fully guided from poses to expressions so that you can relax, feel amazing, and have fun. And it is fun! We create a safe and empowering environment where you can freely express yourself and feel confident. After the photoshoot, you will return to the studio to view and select your favorite images for your keepsake album made by artisans.
The all-day luxury intimate portrait session is an experience focused on celebrating your beauty, confidence, and sensuality through artful photography. It combines expert styling, personalized attention, and a comfortable environment to create stunning and timeless images.

This may seem odd, but I have seen it time and again… confidence is found during the session, not before it. I can assure you that it won’t take long for you to relax, have fun, and see with your own eyes that we’re capturing amazing portraits that you will absolutely love. The goal is for you to feel like a million bucks during your portrait session and long after. You will come away from your portrait session seeing yourself in a new way: fabulous just the way you are! Clients have shared with me time and again that their portrait session had a lasting impact on them and that the experience was definitely a confidence booster, and easily one of their favorite days EVER. And not only that, but they can’t wait to experience it again. Mind you, leading into their photoshoot they said it was a once in a lifetime experience, afterwards they can’t wait to do it again.
