North Carolina's ONLY Luxury Boudoir Photography Studio - You want photos that represent who you are--not overly Photoshopped or edited, helping you see the beauty in your reality. You've always imagined true-to-color and high resolution images of yourself that look like they were clipped straight from a magazine. Most importantly, you want a photographer who will give you positive, constructive feedback throughout your photoshoot!
Hi, I'm Ana, and I help hard-working, family-oriented women who want a body positive photographer without shooting with an amateur. I bring the professionalism and positivity so their true colors can shine.
Bridal boudoir is my favorite service I offer--it is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! My best-selling boudoir package includes hair and makeup, plus personal styling, and is available with a bridal theme. You might book a boudoir shoot for a birthday, anniversary, or a gift, but the special thing about bridal boudoir is that you will only do it once!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Aside from basic questions about pricing and availability, I don't consult with any clients until they've signed their contract and paid their retainer.
You may contact me through Fash, Facebook, Instagram, or my website to tell me exactly what you need and I will give you a quote from there. I do not offer free consultations before booking. All details will be discussed after booking.
Please read my website for important information about booking.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I first started learning photography from photographers I worked with as a model to build their portfolios. I learned lighting techniques, angles, posing, facial expressions, and camera settings that I expanded on when I purchased my own camera.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
A minimum of $200 is required to work with me.

How did you get started in this business?
I started as a model, and because I worked so hard figuring out how to look good on camera, I wanted to help others feel just as good. I didn't always like how I looked in photos, so if that's where you are, I understand! It took me years of being in front of the camera before I felt good about it. Now, I feel obliged to help you see your true beauty with the help of my lens.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with everyone from children, to brides, to professional signed models and celebrities, to every day wives, mothers, daughters, and grandmothers.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My last wedding project was booked about a week in advance! The whole wedding was about 9 hours, I drove a round-trip of 2 hours, and then culled and edited photos for about 20 hours.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
In this business, you truly get what you pay for. My services are for people who value photography and the hours, work, and dollars it takes to create beautiful pictures worthy enough to hang on your walls. My clients value quality over quantity and receive the best service. There are photographers who will work for $50-100, but they are not paying their bills that way. You should be suspicious of anyone working for so little, as it shows how much care and attention they will put into their work.

What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Here's what you need to know before you talk to a photographer: 1) The use of your images: Is this commercial (for your business, i.e. branding photos, headshots) or personal (weddings, a boudoir album for your spouse, etc.) 2) How many photos you are expecting 3) Whether you want digital photos, a flash drive, or print release 4) Location: If you're choosing a studio, which one? If outdoors, where? 5) Date: Knowing when you're available will save you time in the booking process!
