I have been a client of Marsha's for over seven years now. My first portrait experience with Marsha…read morewas rather unique, I was 50 years old and scheduled for a double mastectomy a few days following our shoot. Marsha was not only a master of her art, she was sensitive and put me at ease. As I left her studio that day I felt both beautiful and empowered with an added sense of well being, a generous gift to possess as one navigates such a life altering experience. In the years to follow, I have been lucky enough to have Marsha include me in some of her photo parties, as well as private sessions. Her photo parties are an incredible mix of women celebrating women and quite honestly some of the most enjoyable evenings I have had in a ladies only event. Each time Marsha shares the images she has captured of me, I am always in awe of her artistic ability, it's almost as if she captures not only my physical image, but my soul as well. I highly recommend Marsha for your photographic needs. Not only is she creative, as well as a Master of her craft, she is very professional and easy to work with.

It was such a beautiful day for us both! People, I am 55 years old and getting soft & and squishy, and I have no idea who this woman is in these pictures. I don't recognize myself. My husband said Melissa perfectly captured my beauty (he is the world's best husband) and even in the pictures where I am pointing out my imperfections, she has used her eye and talent for posing to enhance what one has and camouflage what you don't want shown. Bringing my husband was an upsell because he wanted ALL of the pictures! I highly recommend getting your pictures done here! You will feel comfortable, relaxed and truly enjoy every moment!

They should feel rewarded for all the hard work they do and feel sexy and powerful!

I will be forever grateful that Melanie at Siren Boudoir came into my life…read more While searching for a Boudoir Photographer as a gift to my now husband on our Wedding Day, I reached out to over a dozen photographers and no one shared my vision nor matched my needs more than Melanie. She was impressively responsive, extremely personable, and exquisitely professional. I had so many qualms and anxieties headed into the shoot that quickly dispersed once I met her in person and we got started. Melanie opened up her beautiful home to me and made me feel at ease. She gave me plenty of direction while still allowing me to share my creative suggestions. She kept to her word on when the initial proofs were to be delivered and I was blown away by what I saw. (My husband was too!) Melanie has a genuine knack for capturing the most beautiful aspects of any woman and putting them on film. I cannot wait to return again to do another photo shoot in a few years (or maybe even for maternity photos when that time comes). Her prices were so extremely competitive (even though she wasn't the cheapest) but the value I received from the quality of work surpasses what I paid. She was definitely not even the closest (as I drove over 1 1/2 hours from Upland to Beaumont) but she was worth the traffic. Thank you, Melanie! You now feel like a longtime friend to me.

Love this photographer! Melanie did such an amazing job showing me at my best! I actually had a…read moresession scheduled with a photographer from a different company but she cancelled on me an hour before my shoot. I was so upset because I spent so much money getting myself ready for the shoot (hair, tan, eyelashes, nails). Luckily, I was referred to Melanie with Siren Boudoir and she was able to take me that same day and I'm soooo happy she did! My pictures came out so much nicer, more polished, and definitely more professional looking than the pictures I saw on the other photographer's website. When I gave my pictures to my boyfriend for Christmas, he was literally speechless! I was so impressed that I recommended her to a friend. My friend went ahead and booked a session and loved it too! Melanie definitely makes you feel very comfortable (which can be difficult if you plan on being a half naked sexy seductress LOL). I love that I look like me in my pictures with the advantage and the best lighting and poses. LOL You will definitely be pleased with Melanie's work. She's not cheap, but you definitely get more for your buck with her. Besides, when you're getting boudoir shots captured, you don't want an amateur.

I did a boudoir shoot with Rani and absolutely loved the experience. It can be nerve-racking going…read moreinto a stranger's studio to take photos of yourself in lingerie but Rani's sweet and bubbly personality put me immediately at ease. She played music and made champagne cocktails to help make the experience extra special. Katie from Beauty and the Beach did the hair and makeup, and also did an amazing job, even retouching the makeup and playing with different hairstyles with each outfit change. Now for the pictures - I had absolutely no idea what I was doing walking into it. But Rani is so great giving you tips, instructing you, and posing you to get the best angles for your body. She'll even show you poses herself. You could tell she works incredibly hard but also loves what she does. It was so fun feeling like a supermodel for a day and would highly recommend all women experiencing this. And I honestly believe you can't do better than Rani. Her pricing is also very reasonable considering everything her packages include. Some other boudoir photographs may seem a bit cheaper on the surface, but maybe won't include hair and makeup, etc. Overall, boudoir ain't cheap, and to me, feeling safe, comfortable, having fun, AND getting high-quality pictures is well worth it. You won't regret it.

Rani has a great eye for…read moreposing, lighting, and angles, and I couldn't be more in love with the photos she took for me. When I was going through the proofs, I was in awe of my photos and I couldn't even believe that they were of me. She was able to emphasize the better parts of me while minimizing the areas of me that I don't really care for. It's easy to be uncomfortable while taking these kinds of photos but Rani has such a sweet, vibrant personality that I felt like I have known her for ages. She and Heather from Beauty and the Beach (who did the makeup) are a great pair and it was honestly a ton of fun taking these photos. Rani's customer service is also top-notch and after experiencing less than stellar customer service from some other photographers, I am extra appreciative of Rani. She created a beautiful album for me and since she knew I was very busy planning for my wedding, she included all of my photos on a disc "just because". Her packaging for her products is super cute and fun and definitely added the extra "oomph" to her already great work. The lighting in her studio is really ideal for photo shoots and is very flattering. I researched quite a few photographers in the area and Rani was by far the most reasonable, especially for the quality and what is included in her packages. She has a great variety of backgrounds and props/furniture at her disposal in her studio and she was lugging in more backdrops when I came in that day. She really is enthusiastic about her photography and is always on the lookout for something else to include at her studio for her clients. Her communication with me was always prompt, which is always appreciated. I highly encourage everyone to get these done (and soon!).

Thank you Karen.

I booked a photoshoot as a Valentine's Day gift for my boyfriend, and honestly, I couldn't have…read morepicked a better gift. I usually feel super awkward in front of the camera, but I was completely blown away by how incredible the photos turned out. Karen was very easy and reassuring to work with. She made the whole process feel so natural and effortless, and me confident in how I looked. Her direction made posing way less intimidating. She paid attention to every little detail, lighting, hair, makeup, even the room temperature, to make sure I was comfortable the entire time. She also had a great selection of props that really added to the shoot and allowed for a greater photo selection. I also brought a friend with me, which I saw several other boudoir photographers in OC do not allow. She assisted with hair adjustments, posing, and hyped me up the whole time, which made the experience that much better. During the photo viewing (a few days after the shoot), she went through each photo for a yes, maybe, or no, and took notes on how I would or would not like photos to be retouched. She was a very patient and detailed listener to my laundry-list of preferences. As a tip, don't forget to book well in advance of birthdays/holidays if you're doing this as a gift for your S/O. Upon contacting her, it was about a week/a few days for her soonest availability and then a few more days for editing, selecting, and a few more days to receive prints. I was in a huge rush and Karen was kind enough to rush every part of this process so I could have the photos in time for a vacation with my S/O. Overall, I could not speak more highly of Karen, her expertise, quality, and flexibility. I can't thank Karen enough for making this such a great experience, and leaving me with lots of beautiful photos + a huge confidence boost. If you're on the fence about booking, just do it. You won't regret it!
