The "journey" Carrie Anne set me on leading up to the actual boudoir session was arguably a bigger part of the photo shoot for me. ;) Carrie had a time line of to-do's for me, websites for garments I might want to buy, soooo much I wasn't expecting. And on the way, I found a new comfort with myself. By the time I got to Carrie Anne's for the photography... I was ready for this! I brought extra outfits and accessories and Carrie Anne helped me dial it in for an unforgettable experience. It's been about 3 years since my session and I still recall it like yesterday. I am close to 60 and have never felt so good about myself - not in a vain way. I was absolutely comfortable with me. Carrie Anne has a beautiful way about her. She'll set you at ease, and make this moment an unforgettable and personal experience. DO IT - you'll be happy you did. (Thank you, Carrie Anne!)

I checked if they were touring again and when I saw a session two days before my birthday, I took it as a sign from the universe that I needed to book another one. Be rude not to! Plus, I've been working hard on my self image and confidence. I'm not lying when I say they helped me be able to say I'm beautiful out loud and believe it. Stacey was amazing the first time, and I looked forward to see if I worked with her again or if it would be one of the other two amazing ladies at Bad Kitty. This time in September 2025, I had the pleasure of working with the wonderful Madison! The bar was set pretty high by Stacey as she was phenomenal with my sensory issues for makeup/hair and talked me through the poses to make me feel comfortable. Madison hit this out of the park! Heck, I'm not just beautiful, I am SEXY is this recent shoot! Wowza madam, you captured some truly stunning photos! I am still blown away by some of them. Would I book again? Heck yeah!!! I can't recommend them enough if you are looking for a boudoir photographer.

Also... her snack game? If you're even thinking about booking a shoot, do it!!! You'll look back 5, 10, 15 years from now and still be so glad you did.

As a Makeup Artist I've worked with many photographers over the years and a boudoir shoot is something I had always wanted to do, but I always had a million excuses to not do it. With my 40th birthday rapidly approaching Keeley encouraged me to do it. And boy was I not disappointed. Keeley's attention to detail is truly unmatched. Your boudoir experience is perfectly curated in a collaborative way between you and Keeley. From booking, to Pinterest boards, to a zoom meeting, to her customized welcome board, to SNACKS, to your custom coffee order, to playing your personal music playlist, to a robe and slippers, her client closet, to any necessity you may need during your time together (tampons, pads, nipple covers, thong panties, deodorant, etc) Every detail is covered and considered. When it comes to actually shooting the photos let's just say I'm NOT a model and shooting with her made the experience feel like you're hanging out with your best friend who has your best interest at heart. She will guide you every step of the way. Once the shoot is over, you'll get to preview your photos, and it'll be hard to narrow down your favorites. Her mantra "You are Art" is an understatement, after receiving my photos I was in tears. I felt so beautiful and am forever grateful to now have these photos to celebrate this period of my life. Book with Keeley, you won't be disappointed.

My friend did a shoot with Boudoir Divas before her wedding in 2017, and while I loved her photos,…read moreI wasn't sure it was for me. However, once I got engaged, my fiancé and I were with my friend and her husband, and the way he spoke about how much be loved and "used" the photos when she was recovering from giving birth convinced me to do boudoir photos for my fiancé. Naturally, I was nervous about doing them, but they informed me that in their entire time in business, they have never had a leak. More importantly, the pictures are so tasteful that if they did get out, at least there is no actual nudity at all. Before your shoot, they send you a super detailed and helpful e-mail about what to bring/order, what they have that you can wear, where to park, and anything else you can think of! Definitely read the whole e-mail even though it's lengthy because it's got lots of useful stuff in there! I did the By the Sea Shoot, which is only done on Saturdays from about 3:15/3:30-7:15/7:30 p.m. includes 1-1.5 hours of hair and make-up. My schedule went like this: 3:30 p.m.-4:45ish p.m.: Ashley did my hair and make-up while giving me some champagne to relax and loosen up 4:45-5:00 p.m.: Get into outfit # 1 5:00 p.m.-6:45 p.m. ish: -Photos in outfit # 1, -Change into outfit # 2 and pics in that outfit in a different area or backdrop, -Change into outfit # 3 and pics in that outfit in a different area or backdrop -Ashley also had me put on a button down over outfit #1 and a fuzzy jacket over outfit # 3 which created 2 extra looks 6:45-7:00 p.m.: Pack-up to leave the studio and drive to the nearby beach 7:00 p.m.-7:15 p.m.: Pics in beach outfit # 1 7:15 p.m.-7:30 p.m.: Pics in beach outfit # 2 I did my shoot on Saturday, April 30, and I received my pictures via a password protected online gallery on Wednesday, May 11 (8 business days later). Then, you select 25 photos for the album using the favorites feature on the online gallery. Once you select those, Lindsey will edit your photos as little or as much as you want and send you a proof of the album. I haven't finalized my album yet, but I'm sure it will be great! My only critique would be that I did feel like the whole experience was a lot of money. I did find other studios that charge less. However, I proceeded with Boudoir Divas nonetheless for two reasons: First, for something like this, you really want to go with someone trusted and used by someone. Knowing my friend used them, that her photos were tasteful, that they made her feel comfortable, and that the photos were secure was important to me. Second, our engagement photos were $700.00 for 2 hours, and that did not include hair and make-up, so I guess $1,695.00 plus tax is pretty fair for a shoot twice the length that includes hair and make-up. Including some of the less scandalous photos or cropped photos that are appropriate that I absolutely loved. An added bonus to doing this is that there is so much pressure to look perfect on your wedding day, but these photos turned out so much better than I could have ever expected that they really boosted my confidence before my big day. Ashley was a great photographer too, who made me feel very comfortable, helped me style my outfits and made suggestions, listened to what I wanted, did a phenomenal job on my hair and make-up, posed me well (and actually showed me the poses first herself rather than just describing them), and is just a super sweet and kind human being! If you are thinking about doing boudoir photos, definitely use Boudoir Divas.

If you're indecisive and looking for that sign to get over yourself and book your photo shoot with…read moreThe Boudoir Divas, this is it. "Do it!!!" Fast forward to nearly 6 years since I've been a client, there is a saying that goes, "The more things change, the more it remains the same." The last time I stepped foot into their location, it was a towering space of wonder located in Sorrento Valley and now it is in a cozy, intimate studio near the ocean in Solana Beach. I had my photo shoot this past March, just a week shy of my birthday. I too, have transitioned in the past 6 years. The last time I was here, it was to celebrate my weight loss journey. It was definitely a milestone worth commemorating at the time, with an additional 30lb loss since those original photos were taken. At this phase in my life, I decided to do this for me. Not for my husband or for anyone else for that matter. In the past 12 months, I have endured and was blessed with a rollercoaster of life events that would test the mental and physical strength of any fierce woman. I chose "self-care" to celebrate my birthday this year and the care and attention of these fabulous women is what they gave me that day. What hasn't changed is the core of what makes The Boudoir Divas well sought after. The core being Marissa, Ashley, and Lindsey...and the addition of Julia on the day I was there. I felt like I was greeted by friends and was comfortable throughout the entire process. I brought in quite a selection of outfits even though they had many options to choose from as well. I was given feedback at what would look best for my shoot. Like before, I just let go of whatever anxiety I may have had and let them take care of me. Let them take the lead for you ladies. Ashley did a phenomenal job on my hair and makeup. Marissa was my photographer, and she worked her magic on me like before. Julia was an added addition to the team that added more positive vibes into my day. Lindsey is behind the scenes working on my selected photos. The whole process from start to finish was 3.5-4hrs. I had 3-4 wardrobe changes. I even opted to have a book this time around. I'm not going to reiterate what I had mentioned in my previous review since it very much still applies as far as the overall experience, post shoot photo review of your photos, and the process leading up to receiving your photos. The only change this time around is that I'm by the beach and there is a cute little cafe just a few steps from the studio as an option to go while waiting for the photos to upload. There is a reason why I'm a repeat client. These women love their job, and it shows. Its money well spent. You will get what you pay for. I feel like my second go this time around was even better. I looked amazing. I felt amazing. The quality of my photos is tastefully done. I'm surrounded by professional, caring women who have the wealth of experience that you will not find in any other photo studio that you may think of booking. I already have a few of my girlfriends booked and ready to go in the next couple of weeks and I'm excited for their experience. Like I said, if you're on the fence and need a sign about which team of professionals you want handling your photo shoot, this is it. It's these team of women. I wouldn't choose anyone else. Highly recommend!

After the ease of setting up day, time, and place, deposit and contract were sent. Everything was done electronically, making it convenient. The day of the session went well despite a little wind making hair placement difficult. Other than that, she arrived on time and accommodated our change of location requests. My only complaint is that she didn't take as many candid or playful shots of the kids or family as I expected. I also felt like we didn't get as much direction as to how to pose. She did advise us in what order to stand. I would have maybe liked a few seated poses as well. Overall, she was friendly and professional. She even took some photos with my old polaroid camera per my request. The finished work arrived quickly via a link through email with direction on how to download and select favorites. The images are beautiful and the turn out with final editing was fast, approximately 2 to 3 days. I am pleased with how everything went and how it turned out.
