Boston Boudoir anD CREATIVE portraits

Empowered portrait experiences exploring the ART OF SEEING YOURSELF.

  • "It’s been 6 months today since I did my session with Ria and Sarah. And it’s been hard not to book again already! The comfort factor was huge for me and it truly has been a game changer at this stage of life for me. I felt empowered, completely free and I had such a great time laughing and just being around women who truly want to empower other women. If you haven’t booked Boudoir with them yet, you need to ASAP! Don’t wait for “the perfect time”. It’s always the perfect time to feel sexy and strong in your power!"

    —Michelle

  • "I really feel like these experiences are important for women to have! For anyone who works in a male-dominated field (like so many of us) we generally spend so much time suppressing our femininity to fit in, that we lose appreciation for it! Everyone needs to be reminded that women are important as they are without having to tone themselves down."

    —Ana

  • "This experience has been really empowering. Over the course of just a few months I went from, “I could never have the courage to do that,” to “maybe I should try,” to “I love this and want to encourage other women to do it, too.” I’ve finally reclaimed some sexuality that I haven’t recognized in myself for many years."

    —Nicole

  • "I was so anxious about wearing lingerie and being in front of the camera but you made it so easy and enjoyable. I felt beautiful seeing myself in the photos. It was such a surreal experience. I don’t picture myself in a sexy way day to day mom-ing so it really made me appreciate how I look and feel. It gave me a different more positive perception of myself. I honestly had the best time and felt like a movie star for a day! I can’t wait to do it again!"

    —Kristen

  • "Looking at my pictures took me 10 steps forward in my self love journey! I’m in love with all the photos! Sitting down and getting my hair and makeup done was such a relaxing feeling, it felt like sitting down and chatting with a few of my best friends! Even though I was posing half naked, I never once felt uncomfortable! My final photos were beyond what I had imagined, no matter how unnatural a pose felt, it never read that way in the pictures. The knowledge Ria has with posing is truly incredible!"

    —Kayla

These sessions are often meaningful and playfully therapeutic, allowing humans to tap into their own authentic version of beauty and empowerment.
