I brought four outfits from home, but ended up borrowing from the studio one amazing piece. Along with shoes and jewelry this studio was stocked. Christina the owner and photographer was so talented. I never felt rushed. She did not seem like she was in a hurry. She made sure I was positioned to be the most flattering and would help me adjust things as needed. Once my session was over, she explained to me the process for getting my album. She gave me options for the cover and let me choose the photos I wanted in the album. Along with that came a flash drive with all of my photos taken on the day. Within two weeks my album arrived at my door and it is beautiful. I would recommend this studio to anyone who might be afraid to do a session like this. I was never uncomfortable and I'm not normally photogenic. This was a great experience!

Christina made you feel so comfortable in your own skin. I had a great experience and had so much fun!!! I would love to do it again! Next time it will be with my bestie!!! I am so happy I did it. I inspired others to do the same thing. Christina and her makeup artist will doll you up and beautify you. It will be ALL about you. If you're on the fence and kinda shy, go see Christina. She's great and you will have an amazing photo session!

For the past 5 years, I've completely dedicated myself to my children and family. It's become a large part of my identity and I needed a reminder that "mommy" isn't the only title that defines me. I wanted to reclaim the strong, sexy, and stunning part of myself and Natalia made it possible for me to do that. I booked a session with her for my birthday this past October and the experience exceeded my expectations. She was very professional, scheduling a consultation before we even set a date to answer all my questions, go over details, and to set expectations. Leading up to our shoot, we shared a Pinterest inspiration board. I had outside-of-the-box boudoir ideas and Natalia was extremely receptive to capturing something beyond the ordinary. When the day arrived, I got to spend a few hours playing the ultimate dress-up and indulging the fantasy-nerd in me. I felt confident, empowered, glamorous, and alive! Natalia was warm and vibrant; made me feel like I was hanging out with my best friend. As a woman and a mother, herself, she really understood my feelings and helped me bring out the best in myself. While the shoot took place during the flatter part of the COVID curve, she took all safety precautions and I felt very safe during our session. Several weeks later, I got a beautiful album and series of photos that truly reflect my inner goddess! Definitely one of the best investments that I've ever made. Natalia allowed me to have a wonderful experience and exquisite keepsakes that I can admire for a lifetime. This was truly a gift and worth every single penny!

Her kind nature and encouragement during the shoot made me relax and enjoy the process. I actually HAD FUN!! I researched hundreds of local photographers around Napa and beyond, and I choose Angie. I LOVED her style and what she does! After our phone consult, I was immediately ready to book because I KNEW she was my woman! The headshots I already had were boring, they did not capture who I am and I wanted photos that relayed my personality, and she absolutely DID! I'm really excited to get these beautiful photos out via business cards and social media to grow my real estate business. They really capture my personality - and are so DISTINCTIVE! Angie also talked me into taking some shots 'just in case' in an outfit I had brought for the shoot but didn't really "love." The shots taken in that outfit were actually my favorite!!! And the outfit I thought was going to be my favorite didn't work out so well - Angie had predicted that too! The best parts of our time together are the AMAZING PHOTOS - and meeting Angie! If you're considering getting new headshots and personal branding photos done, DO IT! This was the best investment I've made in myself! The whole experience was motivating! Just take the time to explain what you're goals are, be clear, and trust Angie. She knows what she's doing! She has a great eye for angles, setting, and a clear but fun way of directing you. The photos Angie took are honestly the best I've had taken in my LIFE - and I'm 62!!

At the start, we were unsure of how to convey what we do - provide incredible sailing adventures to small and intimate groups - and how this fantastic lifestyle could be translated into photos. Well, we nailed it! The photos Angie Capri took are so full of life, and just the spirit we wanted to convey through our marketing and advertising. We had a lot of moving pieces (literally) and people. She was very good at keeping us all organized and on track, without making it feel "staged". The whole experience felt super authentic. Angie made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. The whole group felt relaxed and free to just be themselves! I love all of the fun we all had. There was definitely never a dull moment. She was a fantastic director! Angie will make the whole experience a blast! She is professional, focused, and incredibly fun (even while battling motion sickness too!). We are beyond thrilled with our new and improved brand image. We started sharing our new photos online immediately, and can't wait to begin updating our printed marketing materials too!

A boudoir photo shoot had been on my bucket list for a long time. I was engaged and thought it…read morewould be the perfect wedding gift, but can't say it wasn't a gift to myself as well. I researched different photographers and Andrea caught my eye for 2 reasons: her beautiful, timeless and elegant photos and her dialogue around doing a boudoir photo shoot. She starts with introspective questions about what you want to portray in your photos. She nurtures a healthy body image along the way and makes you feel your best from the inside out. That is truly her magic. The day itself was so special where I got to step out of my normal routine and into the routine of a super model. Andrea and her team had every detail worked out, so I could just relax and go with it. I visited Andrea again to review the photos to choose my favorites. There were too many and I ended up making the book bigger to solve that "problem." The end product is two books (boudoir + fine art) full of beautiful, professional photos. I gifted the book the morning of our wedding day and my now husband was absolutely floored. They now live on his nightstand and we both look at the often. Thank you, Andrea! When can we do it again?!?!

Truth be told I almost backed out because I was not confident in myself. From start to finish, the makeup, hair, photoshoot and photo selection, I felt at peace and to be honest the most beautiful I ever felt. The main rule was not being able to talk down on yourself, which is hard when your body goes through changes like mine has since being pregnant. This wasn't just an experience, it was a life lesson to take home with me The experience is what women need, and myself needed. It was the validation that beyond my job, motherhood, partnership and what I do for everyone and my family that I am worth something so much more. Towards the photot selection I couldn't hold back the emotions of seeing myself from the outside looking in. The confidence I held in those photos is something I will from now on instill in myself. Thank you fem boudoir for giving me a new outlook on myself from the outside in! I will definitely be back

I actually found him after speaking with a different boudoir photography company whose ad I had seen on Instagram; I decided to do some research before committing to anyone, and found Cheshire on Yelp, checked out his website, and put in an inquiry. He called me very quickly and the conversation was so different from the other places I spoke with! Instead of just laying out "here's how it works, here's what you get for this price," etc., he asked a lot about what I was looking for, what I hoped to get out of it, my motivations or inspirations, etc. That personal touch carried throughout the experience. He consistently made an effort to understand what I was looking for--from the planning process to the photo shoot to going through the photos afterward--to make sure that I got exactly what I was hoping for. The photos themselves are absolutely awesome. It's incredible the different looks and feels he creates in a relatively small studio. More importantly, he just has an incredible eye for what is going to look good and how to create looks, moods, etc. I felt super comfortable the whole time, and I think that shows in the final product. Everyone who has seen my pictures has been blown away. He's way more than just a photographer; he's a true artist. Never in a million years had I ever imagined having a giant naked photo of myself on my wall, and yet here we are...and everyone who's seen it has been amazed. Can't recommend him highly enough!

Johnathan's art work speak for themselves and I really was drawn to his artistic/moody/dark/sexy vibe that comes across so clearly in this work. All of his pictures are of high quality and of variety! For me personally, I spoke with Johnathan over the phone before booking him and found him to be easy to talk to. He is super responsive which was important for me as a client. He makes you feel valued as an individual as his services are pretty customized. We worked together to curate something that is deeply intimate and personal for myself, which was also very important to me to have something that was authentically me. The experience was very smooth in that he made sure to find a location that I was comfortable with, and did not rush any piece of the process, at all. It is very important to make the client feel comfortable and not rushed. Johnathan did a great job with making me feel comfy every step of the way. All in all, he is just great to work with, worth every cent!

If there were one word I could use to describe my photo session at Lolo's Boudoir, it would be:…read morebaptismal. That may be far too dramatic a term but it really sums up my inspiring photo experience with photographer Lone Mrch Schneider. My 34th birthday was approaching and I wanted to replace the standard feelings of gloom about growing older with a more positive experience. Indulging myself with a sexy and revealing boudoir photo session was the best birthday gift I could give to myself. In a serendipitous way I happened upon Lolo's Boudoir website (www.lolosboudoir.com) and instantly knew she was the one. Her photographic style instinctively appealed to me: ethereal but natural, timeless, spontaneous, sensual and revealing yet at times coquettish. I can't claim to be an expert on the art of photography but I have strong opinions on what I like and don't like. So many other photo boudoir websites had revealed to be tacky, campy and very artificial. Lolo's Boudoir has heartfelt style. Before our session I felt a little self conscious and I had warned Lone that I might prove to be one of her more 'curvier' clients and that given the wrong angle I might not be one of her most photogenic! She reassured me through examples from her portfolio she would discover the best I had to give. Lone possesses artistic mindfulness. She kindly encouraged the real me to the surface and helped me uncover the beauty I thought I never possessed. The entire experience was an awakening and rebirth of my sensual spirit. Lone has the magical ability to transform any environment. We had an outdoors photo shoot where she transformed the forest into a starlet's dressing room. Lone's gentle, fun and professional personality allowed me to shed all inhibitions. I spent a cold winter morning frolicking about the forest, playing the role of nymph, drama queen and even bathing beauty as I shed all and luxuriated in the freezing cold stream water. At that moment I felt I had experienced a 'creative baptism' of sorts. Regardless of just whom you have in mind while you're smiling (or smirking, flirting, luring) for while posing for the camera lens; you should always be posing for yourself. Just you. A photographic experience at Lolo's Boudoir is all about you. It's a special time for you to be sensual, carefree, indulgent, sexy and alluring. With a complimentary glass of champagne and a few nibbles of fine chocolate...how could you not be?
