For over a decade, I've been photographing boudoir sessions as an add-on for my wedding photography clients. In that time, many women from all walks of life have asked me to photograph a boudoir session for them for a variety of reasons.
You may be celebrating a wedding, an anniversary, a pregnancy, a milestone in your recovery or a victory in your health journey. All of these are fabulous excuses to have a boudoir session, but let's be real: you don't need an excuse!
It's 100% ok to want a boudoir session to celebrate your own femininity and get a boost of self-confidence that this type of portrait session inspires.

“she took the time to make me feel comfortable, laugh and truly enjoy the session with her.”
Every woman deserves to be celebrated (regardless of size)
There is ZERO model experience needed (I'll guide you through the entire process)
Boudoir is a celebration of femininity in every curve
You are enough, just as you are.
Every Milestone is worth celebrating!
Things you need to know before booking your AUstin Boudoir Session
"Mylah recently photographed my boudoir session and I am blown away. The entire experience was flawless and luxurious. From the get go Mylah provided the most professional advice leading up to the day. So much detail and precision goes into her process of making sure you feel sexy and confident and that you are set up for success. From the lingerie selection, hair and makeup and then of course the day of. Mylah is a talented, lovely fairy goddess and delivered a gallery of the most jaw dropping photos I've ever seen of myself. I was brimming with joy and happy tears when I saw them. It was such a gift to have this experience with her and myself. Every woman deserves to feel this way, I left feeling so cared for, confident and sexy. You won't be sorry when you book Mylah for your boudoir session! Love you Mylah!!"

MYLAH IS A TALENTED, LOVELY FAIRY GODDESS AND DELIVERED A GALLERY OF THE MOST JAW DROPPING PHOTOS I'VE EVER SEEN OF MYSELF.

“And I said to my body, ‘I want to be your friend.’ It took a long breath. And replied, ‘I have been waiting my whole life for this.”

Boudoir is a Form of Self Love
- S
“Her photos are gorgeous and she has a way of capturing you at your best.”
We’ll start by having you create a Pinterest Board of Boudoir images you love. This isn't to recreate them, but to discover the kind of images you're drawn to. Is it giving Victoria's Secret vibes (bright, smiling at the camera) or is it leaning more anonymous where it's mostly the female form?
01 - Get to Pinning
Once we review your Pinterest Board, we'll have a better idea of the types of images you're wanting. Then, you'll book a hotel room that you love for a bachelorette party or a staycation in Austin.
I'll send you a ton of information about how to pick the best outfits (Petticoat Fair is my favorite place to be fitted for lingerie in Austin) and you'll gather inspiration for the hair and makeup artist that is included with your Boudoir Experience.
02 - Location and outfit prep
It's the day of your session and you're probably thinking about cancelling because of all the butterflies! It's 100% normal, but all you have to do is show up on time! My hair and makeup artist will get you glammed up and I'll walk you through the entire process, even showing you how to pose by doing it first. You don't have to know poses or worry about your best angles - that's what I'm there for!
03 - Session day
Within 3 weeks of your session date, we'll meet up to go through your gallery images together. I'll help you pick out your favorite images to go into your printed album. Most women can't narrow it down to 20 because they have too many favorites. We can design the boudoir album of your dreams together and see if there are any additional ones you'd like printed for your home.

Planning tips for your Austin Boudoir Session
“There is nothing more rare, nor more beautiful, than a woman being unapologetically herself; comfortable in her perfect imperfection. To me, that is the true essence of beauty.”
- Steve Maraboli
no
Nope! I have a wonderful hair and makeup artist on my team who gets my Austin Boudoir clients to be the most polished version of themselves! This way, you don't have to know what looks best on camera - she knows the best for all skin types and face shapes!
Of course, you can bring her any hair/makeup inspo you love to tailor your style to.
03.
Do I have to do my own hair and Makeup?
Neither are any of the women on this page. Every single one of them is a REAL WOMAN JUST LIKE YOU!
They're brides, moms, sisters, and aunts. They could be your vet, your nurse, your dentist, your realtor, your accountant, or your insurance agent.
They stepped out of their comfort zone and so can you!
04.
Yea, but I'm not a model....
No, but I do strongly encourage it! My favorite thing to photograph is a lace teddy! Its so figure flattering for all body types! My favorite place to get fitted for lingerie in Austin is Petticoat Fair. They're size inclusive!
Jeans and topless, a sheer robe, and a bedsheet will all work, too, if you're opposed to lingerie.
06.
Do i have to wear lingerie?
I'd LOVE to share the images we create together, but
SHARING IS 100% YOUR DECISION.
You don't have to share any or you can choose from a range of sharing options. This includes only images you specify, or only images in your album, or only anonymous images that won't identify you.
08.
Will you share my boudoir images?
Within 3 weeks of your session, your full gallery will be ready! We can meet in person or over Zoom for you to see your images. During this time, we'll go through each image together so you can pick your favorites for your album, decide if you want more than 20 images or a larger album, and purchase any wall art you'd like for your home.

When will I get to see my images?

"she made me feel comfortable with her confident direction and caring demeanor and how she was able to capture angles of me that were the most flattering. This was huge for me coming from someone who struggles with body image (as so many of us do) that I was able to see myself as my husband does and really accept the beauty in me. "

She is very personable and instantly makes you feel comfortable. She and the pictures are absolutely incredible."
