A boudoir session is a photography session where you wear sexy outfits, lingerie, and dresses, or even go scantily clad and get your photographs taken for a number of reasons:
• A great gift for your partner
• The best pre-wedding gift
• Make it a girl’s day out / bachelorette party
• Celebrate a milestone
• Just because you love yourself
It is more than the art of the female body, it is also about loving and celebrating you as a woman. This is a gateway to boost your confidence and empower things you can do for yourself and as a woman! In our world today, women feel pressured to look and act a certain way. We oftentimes try to fit the image that has been created for us by society. Boudoir shoots may show you the “flaws” in a new positive light and highlight the unique you, it drives you to transform your insecurities into accepting them.
I have been doing this for the last 5 years and I will be honored if you trust me to be a part of your boudoir experience, it has been fulfilling watching a woman’s confidence soar high during each session, one that as a woman myself excites me and warms my heart.
Your boudoir experience will include:

Seasons come to pass, each time the same and yet different in ways. Every year, as the months of March and April approach, rippling white and pink flowers bloom on the cherry blossom trees adorning iconic spots such as the Thomas Jefferson Memorial and Tidal Basin signifying the arrival of spring. Another amazing background is the blooming of beautiful magnolia blossoms found in Rawlins Park and Smithsonian Castle just a week before the cherry blossoms bloom.
As the Cherry Blossom Season approaches, it is fitting to talk about Julia’s engagement session with Por and Jared that was taken in the Thomas Jefferson Memorial.
“Our love story is fun and adventurous. We both love photography. Jared and I met through the photography event in DC. in 2019. He took me on the 1st date to the dark room where we developed film shots together. When Covid lockdowns happened we spent a lot of time together which deepened our relationship. We decided to get married at the beginning of 2021. Our wedding took place at his parents home with a small group of family and friends.”
Getting engaged to the person you love is one of the best things in the world. You have made the decision to commit to your partner for life and spend the rest of your days together.

Capturing a magical elopement in the Washington National Cathedral and the Bishop’s Garden seemed like a dream as the sun rose from the horizon and served as the best lighting for the couple, Jen and Edgar.
Washington National Cathedral will leave you in awe of its stunning Neo-Gothic architecture and has always been one of the top locations for photo sessions, you can never go wrong with its classy and classic dream look. It can accommodate approximately 250 people and facilitates weddings of all faiths and traditions. Along the way through, you’ll find the Bishop’s Garden that’s just behind the National Cathedral. A lovely hidden garden that is beautifully maintained and filled with emerald foliage giving the venue a fairy-tale-like feel, in no doubt a good location as well for perfect photos.
Jen and Edgar got engaged in November 2021 and planned to originally be married in August 2022, however, due to the bride’s father’s health conditions they rushed to have the wedding earlier in May 2022 so he can be in attendance and have the strength to walk Jennifer down the aisle. With that being said they were not able to get a lot of portraits done or some engagement pictures they wanted either. They just had a friend who came out with them to take some pictures with their camera. But they wanted to get some professional pictures done and when they reached out to me, we planned and executed the romantic elopement session just for the two of them on their originally planned date of August 21st, 2022.
Jen and Edgar were amazing and I wanted to do all I can to give them perfect portraits that perfectly photograph an amazing moment in their lives. I made sure to take care of the photography permit for the venue and to get the best possible lighting, we started preparing really early to get magnificent sunrise shots. It was all worth it as I captured their most precious moment, that they can fondly look back on.
Permits must be requested at least one week before your desired photo date. Professional Still Photography price is at $250/day, this permit applies only to the Cathedral exterior, grounds, and the Bishop’s Garden. A permit will not be issued until the date and time have been cleared with the Cathedral calendar.
