After over 10 years in this business and hundreds of boudoir photo shoots, I can confirm one major truth: It’s never actually about the photos (though they are always incredible *winks*).
This experience is about:
we want you to feel safe, feel seen, and above all, enjoy this Boudoir photography experience from beginning to end!
These photos are about what YOU NEED them to be; I’m just the catalyst, artistic eye, and support to get you there and remember that feeling forever.
Pittsburgh's Most Trusted Boudoir Photography
At the end of the day these photos are about your power, about you feeling powerful, and about you telling yourself - you are a force to be reckoned with and you aren’t going anywhere!
I'm Steff!
Well…I’m just a Woman, standing in front of other Women, helping them love themselves and feel damn good in the process!
But seriously, I’m Stephanie, the leader behind this luxurious operation, and it’s my mission to make Boudoir Photography less intimidating and more accessible for everyone, especially Women, especially you.
I noticed very early on the level of vulnerability involved in this style of photography, and I wanted to ensure from the moment you send that first inquiry, that you feel like you are with your best friend every step of the way!
So here I am, dedicating my life to the most encouraging, liberating, and life changing photography session you can imagine!
Who does the Girlfriend Experience Boudoir photograph?
Anyone and everyone! But most of the time it’s Women. Women seeking to be seen, to feel good, and to take back their bodies and souls. I said it before and I will say it again, it’s not about getting boudoir photos. I’ve worked with Women who walked through my door timid and very nervous only to leave feeling brighter and more confident than EVER!
I’ve worked with Women who needed to take back the control that someone stole from them, watching them flourish and grow right before my eyes! I’ve worked with Women that know they are fierce and aren’t afraid to own it!
Plainly put, I specialize in Women’s bodies, no matter the season it’s in and I am here to help you improve your relationship with that body and yourself.
