Whether created for a wedding, an anniversary, a personal milestone, or simply for yourself, boudoir marks a moment worth remembering. I photograph women across Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia with a soft, light-filled approach, pairing feminine sensuality with the polish of refined portraiture. Every session is private, thoughtfully planned, and carefully guided from beginning to end.
-Katrina
I was nervous since I hadn't done anything like that before, but we had SO. MUCH. FUN! If I could start off each day with a Boudoir shoot I would. Christine kept the mood light and fun, and helped me feel confident and beautiful. She went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable through every step, and ensured that my images are kept private and only shared photos with my permission

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Common Concerns
Next
Boudoir photographs are never shared publicly without your express permission. Some women allow me to share five selected images while keeping the rest of their gallery private. Others choose complete privacy. The decision is entirely yours. Because I extend that same protection to every client, a more complete boudoir portfolio may only be viewed during a private video call with Christine. Links to full galleries are never distributed. The goal, of course, is to create images so stunning you can’t help but want to share them.
Who will see my photographs?

You are not expected to know how to pose or what to do. We’ll play music, open a little champagne, and begin gently, often with a robe or flowing silk pajamas. For many women, the session progresses to lingerie and artistic nude portraiture. For others, it ends with lingerie. We move entirely at your pace, with guidance throughout. Ultimately, it feels more like a daytime slumber party than a photo session.
I’m worried I’ll feel awkward.

The Concern:
Next
You do not need to arrive without insecurities. Thoughtful posing and soft light are part of creating photographs that flatter your figure, and every final image includes polished retouching focused primarily on luminous skin. I do not routinely reshape bodies. Body modification is reserved for correcting a distortion created by a pose or camera angle, so the finished photograph remains refined and recognizably you. If a specific insecurity is keeping you from booking, let’s speak candidly about it and how you would like to be photographed.
What if I don’t feel beautiful enough for boudoir?

no.

We will plan your wardrobe together, choosing pieces that photograph beautifully and give the session a natural progression. Once you book, you will receive a preparation guide with recommendations and links to my favorite lingerie companies. Most women invest approximately $100 to $500 in their wardrobe, making bridal boudoir an especially lovely opportunity to select pieces that can also be enjoyed on the honeymoon.
I have no idea what to wear.

The Concern:

These photographs were never meant to live only on your phone. They become artwork through a beautifully made album or a collection of fine-art prints, created for you to keep or to give to someone you love. We will select the format that feels right for the way you want to experience them: privately held, thoughtfully displayed, or wrapped in anticipation of a wedding, anniversary, or milestone.
What will I do with the photographs?

after the session
The Concern:
Your selected photographs become a custom album. You’ll choose the cover and finishing details. The final piece is made to be held, revisited, or gifted.
Your album
Each photograph receives refined retouching. Your finished images are delivered in a private online gallery. From there, you’ll select your album photographs.
Your photographs
We’ll turn on the music and pour a little champagne. I’ll guide every pose and expression. The entire session moves at your pace.
The boudoir session
We’ll plan your wardrobe and creative direction. Each look gives the session a natural progression. Every choice reflects your comfort, style, and vision.
Planning together
Your location must be reserved before I can secure the session date. Once both are confirmed, your boudoir session is officially booked. Your preparation guide will follow.
Your Date is Reserved
We’ll begin with a private conversation about your vision and comfort. Together, we’ll choose a hotel, private residence, or venue. You may also view a more complete portfolio.
Let's Connect
Perhaps it is a light-filled hotel in Paris, an afternoon along the coast, or something that feels pulled from a French perfume campaign. Bring me the idea, however unfinished, and we’ll shape it into something sensual, beautiful, and deeply personal.
Something extraordinary, created entirely around you.
Let’s dream a little bigger
Boudoir is deeply personal, and privacy is the default. This curated gallery offers a glimpse into my light-filled, feminine approach. A more complete portfolio may be viewed privately during a video consultation.
These photographs deserve a life beyond the screen. Your boudoir collection includes a handcrafted album that allows each image to be experienced as its own work of art, whether it is kept entirely for yourself or given to someone you love.
Your 8 × 10 folio album includes ten photographs, individually presented within archival matte pages. After your session, you’ll choose the cover fabric and finishing details, with options to include additional photographs or upgrade the album.
Absolutely. There are stunning locations throughout Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia, but a once-in-a-lifetime experience does not need to remain close to home. Tell me the fantasy location, and I’ll happily travel with you to create it.
Can I travel for my boudoir session?
Your finished photographs will be delivered in a private online gallery within four weeks. Once you select the ten images for your folio album, allow approximately six additional weeks for its design and production.
When will I receive my photographs and album?
I recommend three lingerie sets and a robe, with a new look approximately every 30 minutes. I’ll also provide draping fabrics, while fine-art nude portraiture can serve as a complete look of its own.
How many looks should I bring?
Hair and makeup are not included and are arranged separately. You may also wish to schedule any preferred appointments for skincare, hair, nails, or waxing so you feel fully prepared for the session.
What other vendors should I consider?
I recommend beginning at least six months ahead. This allows time to secure your location and beauty vendors, order wardrobe. Plan for a four-week post-production process, and six week album process, particularly when the photographs are intended as a wedding or anniversary gift.
How far in advance should I book my boudoir session?
Sessions may take place in a hotel, studio, private residence, or private venue. If you’re imagining boudoir outdoors, beside a pool, or along a secluded beach, we’ll need a setting where complete privacy can be secured. I know several beautiful options throughout the DMV.
Where do boudoir sessions take place?
I photograph women who want boudoir imagery that feels soft, sensual, and unmistakably their own. Blending light-filled portraiture with precise posing and refined retouching, I carefully guide every detail while allowing the experience to unfold at your pace.
Based in Maryland and creating boudoir photography throughout Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia, I believe intimate portraiture should feel as elegant as it is personal. Whether inspired by a wedding, an anniversary, or simply yourself, your photographs are created to remain meaningful long after the moment that inspired them.
Whether this is the chapter that brought you here or one still ahead, maternity boudoir offers another expression of intimate portraiture. Soft light, feminine sensuality, and thoughtful posing preserve the beauty, strength, and changing form of the woman you are in this moment.
Sessions may incorporate draped fabric, lingerie, artistic nude portraiture, or more traditional maternity images. Each is created with the same refined approach for women throughout Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia.
