Introducing Outdoor Boudoir Mini Sessions!
Captivating, empowering, and enchanting – our outdoor boudoir mini sessions are on the horizon, and we can't wait to share this incredible experience with you!
Picture yourself surrounded by the beauty of nature, embracing your confidence, and celebrating your unique femininity.
You will be photographed artfully to capture your strength and beauty in an empowering outdoor setting. The result will be stunning images AND a sense of empowerment like you’ve never had before!
Here’s a quote from one woman who did an outdoor session and it changed her profoundly:
To be honest, I was nervous about doing a boudoir shoot. All that “posing” and “trying to look sexy.”
My insecurities alarmed in my brain. Hiking up the mountain for our photo shoot, I figured I could cross it off my list and never think about it again…
and definitely never look at (or share) the pictures!Boy was I wrong!! … The insecurity alarms faded away and I just did my thing!
Up there on a mountain cliff, away from the world. Just me and the sunset. I wish I could tell you how strong
I felt walking down the mountain. And how strong I still feel, weeks later.
These session will be a huge part of the 2024 summer offerings. Between now and them, it is time to perfect them by conducting a Bata Test of the concept.

You can sign up with a group of friends. Or sign up on your own and enjoy the opportunity to get to know a couple new women.
You’ve got some questions - let’s answer them!
How much time do I get in front of the camera?
You and each of the 4 women on the adventure will have approximately 30 minutes in front of the camera, with 3 different backgrounds. We will break it down into 10 minutes in each background, shooting all the participants in each background before moving on to the next background.
How many outfits can I use in my session?
You can have three outfits - one for each location. There will be time to change between locations as other participants are doing their time in front of the camera. A portable dressing tent will be available in a central location. You can use that for privacy as you change.
What will it be like to have other women at the site while I’m being photographed?
That is really up to you. If you want to take advantage of the support and encouragement that women can be, then you can have a support group right up close to give you encouragement. This is incredible if you sign up with friends and you know those ladies are going to be your biggest cheering section ever!
If you want privacy, each of the three locations is a short walk away from the central location, and you can be separated from the others during the time that we are making your images.
There will be options available to you on this.
What should I wear for an outdoor session?
The options are endless! Most important - wear clothing that fits you well and makes you feel amazing!
For the cliffside location I highly recommend wearing clothing that has some flow and will catch the breeze for beautiful drama in the sunset time!
If you are unsure of what to wear, or want to raid my wardrobe closet, you can arrive early on your date, and find what works best for you. I have flowy ballet skirts, robes and gown.
Don’t limit yourself to lingerie if that is not your most empowering outfit. Bring an evening gown or your favorite jeans and top outfit. You can make anything look and feel empowering!
How hard is the hike?
The hike is rated as moderate.
It is a little under 2 miles on a clearly marked trail. It is up hill on the way there. It usually takes about 50 minutes, but I give us a full 60 to do it so we aren’t in a rush.
We go at a moderate pace, and pause at least twice along the way to enjoy the views. So far, I have not had anyone who could not do the hike.
We do hike down in the dusk as we have enjoyed every possible bit of the sunset from the cliffside setting. We’ve always made it back to the cars before complete darkness, but I do recommend you bring a flashlight as it is best to be prepared in case of some unexpected delay. Never had to use the flashlights, but again, being prepared is always a good thing.
To be clear, it is a hike. You do need appropriate hiking shoes. And you should use a setting spray on your makeup to preserve it through the hike.
What if I can’t do the dates offered here?
There are three options if these dates don’t work for you:
You can get three friends together and we can arrange a custom date for you - hit the “Request a Consultation” button in the upper right corner of this page and let me know what dates do work for you and your friends before the weather turns too cold.
Schedule a full session for yourself before the weather turns too cold - again, hit the “Request a Consultation” button to let me know you want to do this.
You can wait until next year when new dates are offered in the summer - use the “Request a Consultation” button above to request to be on the wait list for those, and you’ll get the available dates as soon as they are set.
How do I signup for one of these sessions?
Click this button to grab one of the available dates.
If they are all taken, see the steps in the “What if I can’t do the dates offered here?” above.
