Moody Boudoir photography

Empowered women, empower women!

In a world that constantly dictates how you should act, look, and feel, you deserve to embrace your true self and feel confident in your own skin.

I completely understand the vulnerability it takes to step out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself to a boudoir photoshoot. It can be intimidating to pose in front of a camera, especially in intimate positions and outfits. My goal as your photographer is to make you feel at ease, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. Embrace your curves, feel empowered, and leave feeling like the best version of your sexy self.

MEET YOUR

PHOTOGRAPHER

I’m Nicole (she/her), but most of my emails with you will be signed off with β€œNic <3.”

I would place myself somewhere between go-with-the-flow and a Type A personality. I’m a true Aries millennial, fuelled by coffee and only want children with fur. I’m a sucker for 2000s emo music or a good EDM bass stage. In my free time, you can find me paddle boarding, chasing waterfalls, or tending to my indoor jungle.

I’ll be the first person to tell you I know how hard it is to be in front of the camera. I wish I was dainty, but standing at almost 5’9”, without heels, and rocking anywhere from a size 2-12 pant over the years, I’ve learned that we all have insecurities and at the end of the day, sexy is a mentality. If your mentality is strong, you’re a baddie, and trust me, babe, that translates to sexy.

I think all women deserve to feel like the best versions of themselves. We all have a story to tell, and that story has brought you here. Guess who’s been by your side every step of the way? You got it, that body-ody-ody.

Embrace it and let’s fuck it up, sis <3

Experience the art of Boudoir Photography

From your initial inquiry to the delivery of your final gallery, my goal is to ensure you feel comfortable throughout your boudoir journey. Boudoir photography sessions can take place in rented studio spaces around the Toronto or Hamilton Area OR in the comfort of your own home.

My style of photography is moody and warm, evoking a sense of romance in your images. Playing with highlights and deep shadows creates beautiful contrast to accentuate your curves. Organized is my middle name; I believe in strong communication before your session day, so we can relax and have fun when your session day arrives.

Immerse yourself in my galleries, read client reviews, and reach out to share your ideas for our photography session! Once you become a client of mine, you’re forever a client. Let’s celebrate you!

β€œProfessional, organized, and creative, but the quality that most impressed me was Nicole's ability to make me feel comfortable being the only one in front of the camera."

Frequently asked:

  • My Rules:

    I don’t change bodies! We’re here to embrace, not erase! If it’s a permanent part of you, it stays.
    Examples: curves, fine lines, birthmarks.

    If it’s a temporary "boo-boo," I’m happy to make adjustments.
    Examples: cuts, scrapes, bruises.

  • I have a package that includes a studio booking in Hamilton, Ontario, but it's totally up to you! Your boudoir session can take place in your home, or you can add a different studio space to your booking.

    E-transfer is my only method of payment. A 30-50% non-refundable retainer fee will be due upon booking (varies depending on the package booked).

  • Sure do! All packages come with a planning guide and my inbox is always open to help along the way. Bottom line, be you. Wear what you feel the best in!

  • Probably the most common comment I receive!
    Boudoir Sessions are not just about the final photos. The experience as a whole should be enjoyable! If ask you to lay on the ground, I promise I’m doing it right along with you!

  • Yes! I always recommend printing. I offer prints and albums via your online gallery. Albums can also be added to any package upon booking.

  • Only if you want them to be! I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable space for every woman I have the honour of photographing.

    Legally, I have the right to share my work, but at the end of the day, your body, your rules! My contract gives you three options for image sharing:

    1. Allow me to share all your images

    2. You can select specific images for sharing

    3. Keep your gallery completely private

    It means the world to me when clients allow me to showcase their images, as it helps inspire and empower others. A huge thank you to the incredible women who have given me that privilege! I'm so thrilled that you felt safe, strong and powerful after your session and want to show off your images, you go girl!

  • RAW data is simply that...data. It takes editing & a vision to make your images come to life! Because I hold a specific aesthetic with my brand I do not release RAWS for any reason.
