Most bridal boudoir photographers photograph you in lingerie. I photograph you in lingerie or tastefully nude, if that’s what you want.
Most boudoir photographers shoot in bedrooms. I shoot in my private pro studio.
Most boudoir photographers use daylight. I use studio lighting to sculpt your body.
Most boudoir photographers pose every client the same way. My poses are different and work for your body.
Most boudoir photographers rely on furniture. I rely on light, shape and your body.
Most boudoir photographers create pretty pictures. I create timeless artwork.
Most boudoir photographers show you your photographs weeks later. You’ll see yours the same week.
Most boudoir photographers photograph weddings, families and newborns too. I specialise in boudoir.
Most boudoir photographers have only been doing this a few years. I’ve been photographing boudoir since 2002.
Most boudoir photographers won’t use water, oil, powder or body paint. My studio is set up for all of that.
Most boudoir photographers have assistants in the room. It’s just you and me.m in the room.

🙏When we need help it’s so important to seek it out isn’t it.
🙏When we need help it’s so important to seek it out isn’t it. After my brother tragically died of alcoholism, I went to a therapist who advised me to go to see a reflexologist for 6 months. Since then I’ve been going to Emalee every month. Emalee has helped me massively to help me deal with my grief and anxiety. @emalee_reflexem #boudoirphotographer #fyeoportraits
🐝 The habits I’m building as a 52-year-old boudoir photographer might surprise you… For me, growing older isn’t about denying my age.
🐝 The habits I’m building as a 52-year-old boudoir photographer might surprise you…
For me, growing older isn’t about denying my age. Although some days I’d like to! These are a few of the habits I’m trying, to help me feel better…
Daily dry body brushing…
I absolutely love it. It’s become a mindful way to connect with my body and check in with every little part of it. My skin feels softer and smoother, and the lymphatic drainage benefits are a lovely bonus. I always do it before showering, then apply moisturiser to damp skin and let it dry naturally. I actually learned this little ritual years ago from one of my bridal clients, and I’ve never looked back.
Cheers Chia’s!
Adding chia seeds to almost everything!
Beetroot juice, porridge, yoghurt, smoothies, salads… you name it! They’re packed with goodness, supporting heart and brain health while helping to reduce inflammation. At this stage of life, I’m all for simple habits that make a difference.
❤️ Prioritising intimacy!
As our hormones change, it’s easy for intimacy to slip down the list. For me, it’s an important way to stay connected to myself and my partner. It makes me feel more alive, more present and, quite simply, happier.
✨ Doing things that scare me a little
This definitely doesn’t come naturally! Last night I went into London to a brilliant and empowering talk – Aging Disgracefully @TheIvy, with the utterly fabulous and glamorous @jodalton, @drtam and @emsayle333 I went on my own and met some incredible people and left wondering why I don’t do this more often. Sometimes the best things happen just outside your comfort zone.
Age really is just a number so they say… but feeling your best takes effort! Plus a lot of discipline and desire.
I’d love to know… what’s one habit that’s made a real difference to your life recently?
Love

Brides! Myth vs Reality…
MYTH: “I’m the wrong shape for a bridal boudoir photoshoot.”
REALITY: You’re not the wrong shape. Your perspective has been shaped by years of self-criticism.
In over 24 years, I’ve photographed thousands of brides. I’ve photographed slim bodies, curvy, ageing bodies, pregnant bodies… and I’ve never met a woman with the “wrong” body.
The problem isn’t your shape.
The problem is you’ve spent years seeing yourself through the lens of criticism instead of compassion.
A boudoir session doesn’t change your body.
It changes the way you see it.
Maybe it’s time to stop waiting for the “right body” and start appreciating the one that’s carried you this far.
If you genuinely believe you’re the wrong shape, you’re exactly the person I want to photograph.
Because bridal boudoir isn’t about having the perfect body. It’s about reconnecting with the body you already have. Replacing shame with confidence. Criticism with acceptance. Fear with self-love.
You’ve judged yourself under harsh bathroom lights. You’ve looked down at yourself from the least flattering angle. You’ve believed random holiday snapshots, bad lighting and awkward poses are the truth.
They’re not.
They’re distorted moments not reality.
When you tell me your stomach is too big, your thighs too thick, your arms too soft, or your body isn’t good enough, I don’t see flaws.
I see someone who’s believed a story that was never true.
And that story can end today.
Through expert posing, beautiful light and a fresh perspective, you’ll discover what has been there all along: a body worthy of admiration, respect and love.
This isn’t just a photoshoot.
It’s an act of courage.
A decision to want to see yourself differently.
Because confidence isn’t reserved for a certain size.
It’s available to every bride to be who chooses to believe she’s already enough.
✨ Whatever your shape… own it, celebrate it, and let yourself be seen.
Come and see me.

When I redesigned this beautiful old chapel, I quickly realised something… I didn’t need a changing room.
Because the entire studio is your private space.
It’s just you and me, thoughtfully designed so even the shyest bride feels completely comfortable, relaxed, and confident.
Imagine beautiful, timeless portraits—perhaps your veil delicately draped around you or your wedding shoes as the finishing touch.
All I ask is for 2 hours of your time, around 2 months before your wedding, to create the one wedding gift only you can give.
A reminder of your confidence, beauty, and strength. 🤍
If you haven’t booked your bridal boudoir experience yet, send me a message. I’d love to chat.

The hardest bride to photograph isn’t who you think!
The hardest bride to photograph isn’t who you think!
After photographing thousands of brides over the last 24 years, only a handful really stand outand they all had one thing in common.
It’s the fidgety bride!
During your boudoir session, I’ll guide you through every pose. But if you’re constantly moving before I’ve taken the photo, we often have to repeat the pose to get that perfect shot.
Don’t worry though it doesn’t mean you won’t get beautiful images. It just means I’ll coach you a little more, and we’ll have plenty of laughs along the way.
My job is to make you feel comfortable and create the wedding gift that only you can give.
If your wedding’s coming up, send me a message and I’ll tell you about my current bridal offer.
