Together, we'll create beautiful images that genuinely reflect your essence.
What's Included: An In-Depth Overview of Your Boudoir Session
Style Strategy Meeting: Begin your session with an energizing consultation where we set the artistic direction for your shoot. I'll provide expert advice and unique concepts to authentically represent you in the most attractive manner, addressing any queries to boost your confidence and enthusiasm for the session ahead.
Photo Shoot Location Assistance: I specialize in on-location boudoir photo shoots, carefully selecting the perfect setting to enhance the mood of your photographs. During our meeting, we'll consider options like chic hotel rooms, your own home, beautiful outdoor spaces, or unique Airbnbs. Each choice is designed to align with your vision and distinctly influence the aesthetic of your session, as showcased in my boudoir gallery.
Your Boudoir Photography Experience: Engage in an extensive photo shoot starting at 10 am with your makeover. By noon, you'll take center stage as I guide you through a series of dynamic poses, aimed at capturing the most remarkable images you've ever seen of yourself.
Select Your Favorite Photos: Conclude your photography experience with a reveal session, scheduled a few days to a week after your shoot. This is when you witness the enchantment of your session come alive. You'll view the stunning results and select your favorite images to keep in your personal collection.
Before & After: Transforming Perceptions
The ‘before’ photos are captured in their purest form—without makeup, before any hairstyling, without specific posing, and in ordinary lighting. The ‘after’ images are meticulously crafted following a makeover by my hair and makeup artist. I personally oversee every detail of direction, lighting, and editing to ensure unparalleled quality. I handle each stage of this process diligently to maintain the highest standards.

I have nothing but great things to say about my time spent with Jason. He is 100% professional when you might feel the most vulnerable and he does it with style. I highly recommend booking a session with him and letting him work his magic with you. You truly won’t be disappointed. 5 stars!
This was truly a delicious experience that I wish I could repeat every year. After coming out of a difficult time in my life, I wanted to do something to see the more sensuous and seductive side of myself and thought boudoir photography would be a great step. In searching for someone, I wanted to know that I was going to be empowered by the final product and was very impressed by Jason's portfolio and as soon as I kicked off the process, I had no regrets. Jason was a true professional and great at making me feel both comfortable and beautiful. Ducky gave me the best makeover of my life... while still making me feel like myself. The final shots are something that I will treasure - I would (and have) recommended this experience to anyone I know.
Jason,
Thank you, thank you! A million thank yous!
I can't thank you enough for the amazing opportunity to work with you this last weekend. I had an amazing time and truly appreciate your professionalism -- it made the experience very easy and wonderful!
The unknown makes me uneasy. My nervousness was my own insecurities about myself, my body and my shyness. I also have never had professional photos of any kind done and was nervous putting myself in such a vulnerable position. Your easy-going nature and positive personality quickly washed those nerves and fears away. You give off a very familiar positive vibe, that makes working with you so easy and comfortable.
I take pride in my body, working out and feeling good about myself. I have, since my teens, been very critical of myself -- always poking and picking at myself about my body and weight. I've never felt sexy or confident. After our photo session, I felt sexy and confident. This was a life-changing experience for me. It has opened my eyes in so many ways. I feel empowered, in control of my fears, nerves, anxieties.
The roads we choose to take, the choices we make and the people we choose to be with in life sometimes are not the best choices. Some get the best of us and bring us down creating fears, insecurities and sadness. This wonderful experience with you has allowed me to love myself, see my beauty within, hear my voice, and feel sexy and confident. It has, in a way, set me free! I feel stronger and braver.
I truly appreciate your passion and compassion and focus. You gave me the best experience and I look forward to hopefully working with you again. I feel that my next boudoir shoot with you will be just as wonderful -- I will be much stronger after this last experience.
I can't wait to see the final photographs and feel the power of my sexiness! Thank you so much for allowing me to experience this!
With great appreciation and love,
Barbara
What a fear breaker!
The professional experience I had with Jason significantly elevated my journey of expressing self-love. His makeup artist, Ducky, was as fabulous as ever, and I can honestly say that after my reveal, I felt like a new woman on the inside. I confronted my fears head-on and found myself trying to come up with numerous reasons not to gift myself something so beautiful. It's an experience every person should do for themselves. Yes, it's boudoir, but it's the best damn experience to showcase a confidence that fear often suppresses. From discussing the details to showing my reveal, he didn’t miss a beat, and I would highly recommend his services.
Jason is an amazing photographer with an eye for small detail. Most people are shocked when they hear I had a man as my photographer for my boudoir shoot. Jason made the experience very comfortable and poses you in ways that hide your "flaws." By the end I felt like a professional. He is honest, hilarious, and an overall very kind person.
At 38 weeks pregnant I was diagnosed with breast cancer. My little guy was induced right away so I could start treatment asap. With a newborn at home and constant doctor appointments I had very little time to get anything done. I have always wanted to do a boudoir shoot and really wanted to document my body before I got cut into and lost all my hair.
I found Jason’s website on a random search and was immediately impressed by his work. Most of the boudoir photos I came across in my online search came off really corny to me, but as soon as I saw Jason’s work I knew this was what I wanted. I was particularly impressed by his before and after shots. They were beautiful and not the least bit corny.
Jason spoke with me over facetime and listened to what I was looking for and went out of his way to make this happen for me before treatment started. I was extremely nervous, here I am 2 weeks postpartum, no experience taking pictures, and no wardrobe (I’ve been in nothing but maternity panties for months). Jason shows up and immediately puts my husband and I at ease. He is extremely personable, professional, and talented.
The stylist Ducky was delightful and talented. She made me feel beautiful and my hair was perfect. Jason and Ducky helped me look through my closet and made it fun. They made me feel so comfortable. I was not expecting this level of photography.
Jason is an artist and you can tell he is passionate and enjoys his work. He does not settle for anything less than exactly what you want. I can’t say doing this shoot was easy but I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone other than Jason. He made me feel strong even in an environment where you would think I would feel vulnerable.
When Jason showed me the final photos I had a really hard time finding words. I’m not very emotional but was very overwhelmed with the beauty he was able to capture. My body isn’t perfect but it is mine and it is beautiful. He was able to capture ME. I will be forever grateful for him and doing this for me.
I recommend to anyone looking into doing boudoir photos DO IT and do it NOW. Don’t wait for the perfect time because there isn’t one and you will never get to have this special gift. I also recommend having Jason capture your beauty. His talent is only shadowed by his wonderful personality. You will not regret it.
