 Yes! This experience is life changing.

 First let me start by saying, Hi, I'm Sunnie, and just like you, I am on a journey to love myself fully and without apologies.  I just turned 50 this year, and thanks to my boudoir experience and journey, I feel better than I did when I was 20. Its all about how you FEEL.

Client Testimonial from Dec 2024
Hex Automotion Design Columbus OH
Rae - Galentine's Day session in St Pete FL

I've been working in the boudoir industry since 2008. After I did my first boudoir session (as a model) back in 2005, it changed my life over night. Years of shame and awkwardness turned into confidence and freedom.  At 34, I was a new woman, who FELT better than I did at 20 (like I said earlier, and I still do). 

 

I became obsessed with sharing the experience with as many women as possible and after spending years assisting a fellow photographer, I decided to resign from my 10 year teaching career and go back to school for photography and design.  

 

I have been changing the lives of women everywhere, ever since, by showing them what I see from behind the lens and even more importantly, teaching them how to be confident in their own skin. When you work with me, sometimes it's not just a photoshoot, it's a whole mindset shift. A bit of life coaching, mixed in with some industry secrets, mixed with me being your personal hype girl ..  Learn to embrace and love every part of you.   

Whether in business clothes or lingerie, fluffy goddess dresses and crowns or fully naked.  You are ART! 

​​

In the 15+ years I have been photographing women, I have worked with over two thousand women of every shape, size, age and body style.   I have a family of repeat clients who have worked with me at least 10 times, but I frequently work with women who have never ever done a photoshoot before.  

​

See yourself from a new perspective when you are in your best light, photographed from your best angles, in your most flattering poses, with someone (me) reminding you to making cute faces.

Walk With Star Leaf - Portland OR

I know you don't know where to start or what to wear. From the moment you book your session, I will start guiding you along my process.  First we will choose the sets and locations that fit your style best (I have a private studio in St Petersburg where most of my sessions take place, but I also travel often and offer destination and on location sessions.

 

If you're not local to St Pete, check my current travel schedule or get on my email list to work with me in your city.

 

Once the sets are chosen, I will help you in choosing your outfits.  We can even do a zoom call or a meetup if you want advice on what looks best. 

 

Keep a natural style or choose to add professional hair and makeup with or team of amazing stylists.

Most women worry about posing and facial expressions, but I will be with you every step of the way coaching you on how to pose, when to point your toes, how to hold your arms and tricks to make a variety of facial expressions.

​

Many women say that they are waiting to lose a few pounds, or until they feel brave enough but trust me, you do not need to wait until you feel perfect to do your session. Your session will make you see how perfect you look right now.  I also offer sexy silhouettes that blow you away when you see your shape outlined.

​

But remember, it's not just the intimate photography. I specialize in all women's portraiture: Business branding, goddess portraits, headshots, pinup, bridal boudoir, maternity and even bachelorette and birthday parties.

​

Schedule your consultation and let's start planning.
