Pioneer Square Boudoir Studio - Light Space

We are located right near the water, a quick walk off the ferry if you are coming from the peninsula. It is actually pretty easy to get to no matter where you are traveling from. We are right off of the I-5 and I-90 interchange.

The studio is actually two different spaces and you can choose which style best suits you.

One of the spaces is light bright white, very romantic. Bridal themed sessions are popular for this space. Since it is a simple yet elegant space it is great for anyone.

Pioneer Boudoir Studio - Dark Sultry Space

Our other studio space located in the same building is great for those who are into a more mysterious and sultry style. Many hours have been spent in here to create a unique one of a kind experience.

15 Couples Boudoir That Embody Intimacy to the Core

Intimacy Feels So Good

Get Ready to get close and have all the feels.

We believe that intimate photography should be about more than just the physical act of sex. It should be about capturing the love, dedication, commitment, and fantasies that couples share with one another. We think that's pretty darn sexy! Providing an open space of acceptance allows couples to unfold into one another, and their voice of intimacy is reflected into the images that are documented.

Trust in the Process of your Photographer

The process of a couples boudoir photo shoot is not much different than that of a solo boudoir session. We prepare you in much of the same way with consultations around self-care, lingerie, wardrobe, the day of photography experience and final art and albums that are offered. During your consultation we go over the timeline from when you book to your actual shoot in the studio, all the way to your order and reveal session. A couples boudoir session can be as modest or and sensual as you want it to be. If you are looking for something more erotic or kinky we can talk about that option as well. When it comes to privacy, that is up to you. Some of our couples opt to showcase their images on the website and other who are more private opt to keep them to themselves. It is 100% up to you how who sees your photos.

Who does a couples session?

Anyone who wants to spice things up, celebrate a milestone, design a hot steamy unique date night or just do something special with their loved one. I have had couples come in for 1 year, 7 year, 10 year and 25 year anniversaries. I have had couples who have been beaten down by the toddler between them in their bed. Couples who found themselves after their kids moved out. A parter who wanted to shower her lover in feeling like the diva she sees her as. Many couples just want to feel sexy with one another and the beautiful artwork created is a way to show that always.

What, you've never done a couples boudoir session before?

Rest assured you are not the only one. All of these couples here tried something new and all of them would definitely recommend this photoshoot. It is totally natural to feel awkward at first, I mean you are taking your bedroom experience and bringing it into a boudoir studio.  You are my only session of the day, so their is no need for us to rush through anything. I work at your pace, which helps you feel comfortable.  Through our process we get to know one another and I start you off easy with casual playful prompts that bring our your genuine facial expressions. As we progress through the day you, will feel completely comfortable and the entire experience will fill you with a adventurous spark igniting a flame that pulls you both closer together.

How much clothing do we have to take off during couples boudoir photography?

How much clothing you wear is up to you. I have couples bring outfits, lingerie, harnesses and even just be nude. I want you to feel comfortable about being passionate and expressing your feelings with your spouse. If that means you are covered that it totally fine. Remember this boudoir shoot is your boudoir experience. Like all things your consent it the number one aspect. When you feel at ease your images show that, and my job to make you feel that way.

Your last experience you felt weird being posed ?

We've heard that before, and it is okay. Most of the time couples are referencing their engagement shoot, wedding day or headshots. It is not uncommon to feel like you were put on display. A boudoir photography session is way more private, just the three of us. The way I pose is more natural and less contrived. I start you off with a fluid prompts that you would probably find yourselves doing anyway at home. We are in a private setting, and no one is watching. I will always make sure you look your best, and the wonderful part if it is, this photo session is about the candid moments of affection between the two of you.

We are different, how do you feel about that

All people are welcome in this space. I feel we are all unique yet the same. We are all humans, and we all express ourselves differently. When you share your story with me know that I am open to it as long as all people are consenting adults of sound mind.

What is Erotic Photography?

Erotic photography is a form of art that captures the beauty and sensuality of the human body.  The term “erotic photography” is used to describe a type of photography that captures the beauty and sensuality of the human body.

By definition the word erotic pertains to “relating to arouse sexual desire or excitement”

When the term erotic is said it does not always infer explicit.  Many things can provoke sexual desire, the things that provoke sexual excitement do not have to be profane. It is totally possible that erotism is found in subtly, hidden between the lines, as well as blatant sexual content. Everybody has a different opinion regarding the meaning of eroticism. In general, the erotic word is also used to describe the action of any emotion that is revealed on the human face. To be more specific, it is a sexual expression. Although, you might find that there are other less sexually related things that are called "erotic" so this term is not written in stone.

What are you turned on by?  What do you find provoking? What draws you toward another person or even toward yourself?  

One night my partner and I were lounging in bed, just resting in our sweats, just scrolling through our digital devices, and he asked me, “Is your check engine light still on?”  Right there at that moment, I feel compelled to fervently attack him, he was the most sexy hottest being ever at that very moment.  You must realize that Acts of Service, is my number one love language. A few days prior he had replaced the battery in my car, and all he was doing was checking up to make sure everything was running smoothly.  That lingered in my mind for a few days, and when I shared with him my experience he chuckled. 

Another totally non explicit thing that is a total turn on is the voice of Sam Elliott that is deep, robust yet velvety and romantic all in one. To hear him speak ignites something in me. 

Erotism is not always bare flesh.  

Now that you have an idea of what really is erotic you can visualize what that means to you. With the birth of the photograph so was the birth of erotic photography. This was not a profound discovery, nothing really ground breaking. Before erotic photography we had erotic painters. Look at anything produced during the renaissance and you will find erotism. Travel even further back in time and you will find it too. 

Erotic photography can be emulate romanticism with slight suggestion or border on the lewd and downright obscene. As the famous saying goes, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” 

I challenge you to think about what feels erotic to you. Are you looking for a more sublime hidden message or are you overt and blatant?

Think about what has drawn you to individuals. What propelled you to desire them?  What brought them to you?  Are there aspects of yourself that excite you that attract others. There is nothing like loving something that you do yourself, and also having that excite others. 

Are you ready to explore your own session and create something erotic for yourself or for someone special.

Spicy Day Date - Couples Boudoir Sessions

Looking for a creative way to celebrate?

If these past couple of years have brought us anything, it really has tested our ability to be vulnerable and spend a lot of time with one another.  As we have slipped into new routines of social distance we are pushed closer to our immediate circle of intimacy.  Have we learned to distance ourselves or have learned to strengthen our  bonds with our partners. Either way it never hurts to focus on your intimacy whether it be emotional, mental, spiritual and yes of course physical. 

Boudoir photography is a special type of photography that is taken to promote self-esteem and body acceptance. Typically it is viewed as an empowering experience for women who are looking to celebrate a milestone in their lives. The reality is men can benefit from it too, and together couples can experience this journey as well.

You might be asking yourself, who does a couples boudoir session? Just ask yourself…..

Do you want to spice up your relationship? Do you want to do something that will be fun for both of you? Do you want to create a bond with your partner that you both can enjoy?

This article will cover some tips on how to prepare for a couples boudoir session to make the experience all the more enjoyable for both partners.

For the couples who are about to take this journey together, I want them to know that they are not alone.

It often starts with an impulse buy - you see an Instagram post of a boudoir session and think that it would be a good idea for your partner.

A professional photographer will teach you how to feel confident in your skin while capturing these moments in the most beautiful way possible.

It's all about taking charge of our sexuality, being comfortable in our own skin, and being able to share this with our partners.

Planning a couples boudoir session can feel challenging for some because we are working with two bodies, two minds, and three relationships. You have the relationship of the two people, and then their individual relationships of self. One partner might be a little more timid and shy than the other. Through a series of questions and getting to know you we discuss how to overcome any nervousness.

As with all sessions, I am here for you along the way. You can ask me anything. The most important thing is that you feel heard int he process. Like all relationships, communication is key. From the moment you inquire I will help guide you through the process. The session and the images are not the only part of this experience, but also the preparation leading up to your session. I have great tips and tools that will help ease you into the day of the shoot.

I have a guide specifically tailored to you and your partner.

3 Best Tips for your Boudoir Session

When you come in for a boudoir session with us, we will help guide you so you feel prepared. I also know we all have super busy lives and sometimes we just cannot accomplish every task we set out to do. If you find that life takes over and you show up with nothing, these three tips are are going to be your savior and hopefully only a day or two of preparation.

You might be surprised to find out, but none of these tips require lingerie to be purchased or really any money to be spent. All of these tips are self care that can be done at home.

1. REST - get a good nights sleep, stay away from alcohol the night before your session. A solid 7-8 hours sleep will provide you with a fresh well rested face.

2. Hydrate - Drink lots. of water in the days leading up to your session. Take a bath, moisturize your skin. Especially if you are prone to dry skin make sure you do these simple things to help you skin look supple and fresh.

3. Manicure - This doesn’t have to be fancy at all. You don’t even have to do polish. Of course I recommend that you treat yourself to the salon, but not required. You can do a simple home manicure. Make sure your nails are clean and even. I incorporate your hands a lot and you don’t want to have jagged ripped nails. If you are curious about nail colors check out my blog article on manicure ideas.
