the BOUDOIR journey

BOOK YOUR CONSULT

I literally can not say enough great things about Brea. Her work alone, amazing. 
I booked with the intentions of it being a gift for my husband, but it ended up being 100% for me and reminding myself that I’m a bad b*tch.
As soon as I walked in I was greeted by 2 smiling faces and hugs. Leave all uneasiness outside because it’s a breath of fresh air through those doors! I’ll admit, I grabbed outfits left and right when I packed, and Brea took the time to look through everything I brought, and picked out pieces since I’m so indecisive. Brea has so many poses up her sleeve, and isn’t scared to get on the floor to show you. 
Highly recommend booking with Brea before it’s too late! 

Ms  A

I don’t look like the models on your website!

The portraits on the website are of everyday women just like you. They are moms, teachers, lawyers, business owners, grandmothers, nurses, and of all shapes, sizes, ethnicities, and ages. You are beautiful just the way you are, and it’s our job to accentuate that so you witness just how gorgeous you are.

I should lose a few pounds before doing this! 

No, no, and no! This is an opportunity to appreciate and honor your body for what it is. Let’s celebrate YOU! Plus, we know the right poses, moves, and angles to capture the parts of your body you love and minimize the areas you don’t. It’s all about the positioning that produces portraits you love!



I’m not the right age.. Isn’t this for younger women?

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing women in their 80’s and above! You’re never too old for anything. Unfortunately, not all clients want us to share their images, so you don’t see the full range on the website. But age is beauty, and it’s time you recognize that you’re never too old to feel sexy! 

I’m a plus-size woman.. should I do this?

This is your chance to accept, love, and own your body. We have a lot of experience working with curvy & plus-size women, and their photos are jaw-dropping. We know how to position you to bring out the best angles that flatter you and enhance your most favorite parts of you body.

I think I’ll look awkward.. what if I don’t like any of my photos?

This is a concern for the majority of clients. Rest assured, with 10 years of experience, we’ve learned a thing or two about how to make you feel comfortable and relaxed through the process. You will feel supported, seen, and guided from start to finish so we produce extraordinary portraits you will love forever.

You are braver than most for considering a boudoir shoot, which should be applauded. Let’s honor you, exactly as you are! It’s time to release the false beauty expectations and own your gorgeousness. Everyone deserves to see themselves as a beautiful, confident, sexy, and powerful woman.

I know what you’re thinking…

BEFORE & AFTERS

Stunning

I felt so comfortable as soon as I walked in and confident during the shoot. I needed a pick me up and then when it came to the viewing of the images, WOW! The work is incredible and it was so hard to pick my favorite images. 10/10 recommend.

I have never done anything like this but shyed away because I didn't want it to not feel like me. I wanted a natural and artistic approach and WOW did she deliver. I am obsessed with all of my images and feel so inspired with self confidence again. This was the exact pick me up I needed to make changes in my life.

Brea let me be naturally me. She made me feel so confident and comfortable. I feel so happy and my images bring more to me than I thought they would! I feel sexy, and comfortable now with my own body. 

I FEel CONFIDEnT AGAIN..

I now feel so empowered..

She Made it so easy to feel comfortable & Natural..

Hair and Makeup is included in the Boudoir Experience. We want you to feel pampered and sit back and relax. Our amazing team of makeup artists help complete the boudoir look, whether thats subtle makeup or full on glam. 

Confidence is not required! You don't have to be perfect or ready. Nerves are normal! You just need to show up for the opportunity to love yourself. I promise you – after you get to relax for an hour before your shoot getting pampered by my stylist you will feel at ease and have nothing but fun! You will leave the studio smiling and feeling confident.

You will see your images the same day as your session and be able to choose your absolute favorites. We show you a lot of images and create a lot of variety in our time shooting together. 

I do edit your images. We smooth skin, remove blemishes (acne, bruises, scratches, etc) and add our signature color edits that make your images POP. We do not edit anything out permanent unless requested. We think you are beautiful as is but if there any parts of your body that you don't want highlighted, we discuss this before your session and use posing and lighting to make you shine!

YES! We specialize in creating gorgeous boudoir portraits of every woman no matter your shape or size. Again, we specialize in lighting and posing techniques to make you look fabulous!

Fill out our contact form and we will be in touch asap via text and email. You may also give us a call at 269.775.4995. We will hop on a quick phone chat to go over the experience and any questions you have. There is a retainer session fee of $399 to book your experience.

We have curated our collections with the most popular products purchased as bundles to save you money! Our most popular collections include digital images, our gorgeous luxury albums, a mobile app and bonus credit to use towards other goodies such as metal wall art and more! The sky is the limit with what we can create with your gorgeous images.

YES! We offer payment plans and financing through Paypayl and Klarna to help meet every budget. Most clients opt in for a pre payment plan to get access to our bonus sets!

Because we only specialize in boudoir, our calendar fills up quickly. We recommend coming in for your shoot 4-5 weeks before you need your products. No matter what your timeline is, get in touch - we can sometimes accommodate last-minute requests.

We are located in Downtown Kalamazoo at 326 W. Kalamazoo Ave in a beautiful commercial building with tons of character.

Hey there, I'm Brea! An everyday woman. I wear many hats as us women always do. I’m a mom, a wife, a best friend, a sister, a daughter, a spirited human and a passionate creative.

Though the technical term to describe my job is "boudoir photographer," I consider myself to be your storyteller, your advocate, your encourager, and a new friend who can speak absolute truth into your life. 

The experience I offer my clients is designed to help you face your fears, step outside your comfort zone, and along the way…find yourself again.
