TRANSFORMATIONS
From Nervous to Unstoppable
Ever wonder what kind of transformation happens inside our studio? In this series, you’ll see exactly how our clients arrive: bare-faced, nervous, maybe even unsure (but definitely excited!) and how they walk away: glowing, confident, and owning their moment.
These side-by-side images aren’t about perfection—they’re about revealing the beauty and strength that’s already there. With professional hair, makeup, and expert guidance, we bring out the version of you that’s been there all along—ready to shine.
Our transformation experience is about more than just how you look—it’s about how you feel walking out of our studio.

I was fortunate enough to do a boudoir shoot with Idalia Photography. From the start, the client concierge Cassidy was so helpful in preparing for the photo shoot. My photographer, Amber, was amazing and very happy to implement all my ideas. They also have an in-house make up and hair stylist, Corrine, whose services were included, and she does a lovely job. Corrine took the time to listen to what i wanted done, asked for inspo pictures, and executed it perfectly. The owner, Alex, did my photo reveal and very patiently helped design my keepsake book, combing through all the pictures that Amber took. Since there was no shortage of great shots, I even bought a few extra pages. Couldn't recommend Idalia enough!!
"She made me feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful!"

I didn’t step into a boudoir studio until I was in my 40s—but the moment I did, I was hooked. I left that session knowing without a doubt that our studio needed to offer this experience to our clients.
By blending the softness of light and airy photography with the authenticity of true-to-life editing, we create images that feel both timeless and empowering. Our approach is full of warmth and encouragement, helping you feel comfortable, confident, and unstoppable in front of the camera.
And none of it would be possible without the incredible women on our team. Each of them brings her own style, talent, and heart to every session—creating a space where you’ll feel truly seen, supported, and celebrated from start to finish. Meet them all below!
"I have never felt more empowered, confident and gorgeous in my entire life."
Boudoir sessions take place in our Point Pleasant, NJ studio, which allows our clients to relax and feel at ease. With us, there's no having to feel uncomfortable renting a hotel room or Airbnb, and you won't be interrupted by other clients as we only hold one session at a time. Our focus during your session time is on you only, which makes our clients feel taken care of and can translate into more beautiful and natural photos.
