JAW DROPPING TRANSFORMATIONS
Before & After
We don't use models - these are everyday babes (just like us) with normal lives who had never done a shoot before.
These women were nervous and had a hard time seeing themselves as beautiful.
With the power of Boudoir, professional hair & makeup, attention to detail, posing expertise, and a comfortable studio environment...
They went from SWEET to SPICY and saw a new side of themselves that made them feel empowered, confident and strong!

(busy mom)
I have never seen myself as sexy, gorgeous (all of the above)...I still look at those pics like wow I can't believe that's me.
Highly recommend a boudoir shoot with Vanessa! You will have fun. You will laugh. You will see a side of yourself that may have been hidden from your view. 100% worth the money.

Vanessa and her team were amazing. I was never once nervous once they started. I completely enjoyed this experience and would love to do another session.
I can not express how awesome this was. I had been nervous for weeks but it all melted away so quickly!!! Love, love, love!!!
