Ive always wanted to do a boudoir experience, it was one of those bucket list ideas for me. I decided to finally book this session as a gift for my fiancee as a wedding gift.

From the moment I booked my session, I was both excited and nervous. I wasn't sure what to expect, and I had concerns about how I'd feel in front of the camera. But as soon as I arrived at the studio, all my worries went away. The environment was so welcoming, and Julie made me feel at ease. She really took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and confident in every outfit, and in every pose. It felt like a partnership, not just a photoshoot, and that really helped me open up and embrace the moment.

When I saw the images, I was honestly blown away. I couldn't believe that was me in those photos! The images made me feel so proud of the woman i am. Julie did amazing and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Julie was professional yet warm, and her encouragement throughout the shoot made a huge difference in how I felt. She is an amazing hype woman! I felt like I could completely trust her.

Without a doubt, I would recommend anyone to do a boudoir shoot with Julie. Whether you're celebrating a big life event, looking to gift something unique to a partner, or simply doing something for yourself, this experience is empowering. I will 100% come back to do this again!

I had such a great experience. This is my first time doing anything sexy so to say I was nervous is an understatement. She made me feel beautiful and confident throughout the entire session. My makeup was amazing. I sent over pictures but we still discussed exactly what I wanted. Not only was she focused on my comfort but she explained her process to eliminate any confusion. Doing some poses I felt silly but then she showed me the pictures and I was amazed. I've never seen myself so sexy and beautiful. My fiancé is going to be so surprised when I show him his personal wedding album. To say I'm happy and pleased wouldn't do justice.

I'm getting married soon and thought of wanting to capture my bridal era as much as possible. I'd heard about Boudoir shoots but never thought I'd go through with it. SO HAPPY I DID IT.

I had complete focus on me during the entire day. Julie's passion for what she does just adds to the overall experience so it was such an amazing time. I can honestly say out of all of the major take away from the wedding, these photos are going to be my most prized possessions haha it'll be amazing to look back and say I did something out of my comfort zone. I was a little nervous as I just didn't think the photos would look as good as I wanted them to but we were both jumping when going through set of photos!

I would HIGHLY recommend everyone to do this, even without an occasion. Best decision ever.

Truly one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever gifted myself.

Julie at Adore La Vie is extraordinary. From the very first message, her communication was warm and thoughtful, and every detail of the session was handled with so much care and intention.

She makes you feel like the most stunning version of yourself--inside and out. The hair and makeup were flawless, enhancing my natural features without making me feel overly done-up. The wardrobe options were gorgeous and curated with such precision, I felt like every piece was meant just for me.

Julie has this rare gift of helping you see yourself through a new lens--when I saw my photos, I was honestly moved to tears. She captured something I didn't even know was there.

This isn't just a photoshoot. It's a celebration. Of beauty, of self, of strength. Whether you're treating yourself or gifting this to someone you love, I couldn't recommend it more. Julie pours her heart into every step of the process, and it shows in the results.

Five stars, forever.

I had a maternity session with Julie as a gift for my husband. I was nervous because taking risqué photos is completely out of my comfort zone, but she made me feel so comfortable in my own skin (sexy even). She had so many beautiful lingerie pieces to choose from and the poses we did turned out awesome. The photos turned out amazing and it was really fun to go through them. I kept thinking, "I can't believe that's me!"

Julie is absolutely amazing! It was my first experience with boudoir for my wedding and I was very nervous. Not only did she make the experience so comfortable, but the ending results are absolutely amazing! I have honestly never felt as beautiful as I did that day. I just received the final images and OMG I can’t stop staring at them!

I had the most incredible experience with Julie and her team at Adore la Vie Boudoir! From the moment I walked in, she made me feel completely at ease. I was definitely out of my comfort zone and felt nervous beforehand, but her warm energy turned the entire shoot into one of the most empowering and confidence-boosting experiences I've ever had. From the start, Julie took the time to get to know me and plan our session in advance. On the day of, the hair and makeup artist did an absolutely stunning job, and I wound up having a blast taking photos with Julie. While I booked this shoot as a surprise wedding gift for my fiancé (which I cannot wait to give it to him!!) I’m so glad I did this for myself, too. If you're looking for the best boudoir experience, I cannot recommend Julie and her team enough!

I was super nervous about doing a boudoir photo shoot but Julie being the professional she is put me at ease from the beginning! She made me feel really confident and paid attention to the smallest details. It was such a great experience and I have never felt sexier! I cannot wait to see the final product!

This was one of the most wonderful experiences I've had in my life! I wanted to do boudoir photography for about a year, and I'm so happy that I chose to work with Julie. This was one of the best things I ever gifted myself. Julie was so helpful and inspiring, and I felt so beautiful and safe. And I wanted to say a big thank you to the make-up artist-- I looked like a princess :) If I ever get a chance, I would definitely do it again!
