"I booked this shoot as a gift to my husband and it quickly became so much more. Nova was so great at communicating and giving me all the information I would need to make my shoot successful...Her attention to detail is amazing, she knows exactly what is needed to get the best photos! This ended up being a gift to myself as well. I left the studio each time feeling beautiful! If you're considering a boudoir session, do it!!"
“I recently turned 51 and have had some pretty big changes in my life over the last several years, right up until last month. I've wanted to do [a boudoir session] for quite some time, and after I got over the last hurdle I had, I knew it was time… I’m amazed at the photos...[The best part was] how patient and helpful you are! I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, and your guidance and expertise made the session just perfect. Thank you so much for making me feel so comfortable!”
"Having a boudoir session is something I've always wanted to do. I felt like I was ready. It was kind of a "coming of AGE" thing for me to do. On the day of my session I was scared to death. I was very nervous. I didn't really know what to expect. Afterward I felt amazing. I felt empowered... Often women my age wouldn't do a shoot like this, for a number of reasons... The reality is we need to do what makes us feel good. Step out of our comfort zone, our age self-imposed rut."
"I was blown away with everything...What an experience! I felt so comfortable and confident through the whole process... Every woman should experience a boudoir session! "
“Thank you so much for today. It made me feel empowered, like a goddess, and really just down right beautiful...I am shocked and blown away that these photos are me and am realizing that I’m very hard on myself. Thank you for making me feel like a Queen for the day!”
"I think EVERY woman should do a boudoir photo shoot...After seeing how stunning and absolutely gorgeous I turned out in these photos my self-confidence has definitely gone up! It was all that I was expecting and MORE!!"

"WOW is all I can say! From someone who was as nervous as can be...and almost cancelled the shoot multiple times...to feeling the most EMPOWERED I've ever felt in my life (at age 50 no less!) I am now recommending this to every woman who will listen!..."
"This was one of the best experiences I've had and if you have ever thought about doing a boudoir shoot all I can say is DO IT!! I took a leap out of my comfort zone and Nova was AMAZING. She ensures you feel comfortable during the shoot and helps with ALL the prep weeks before the shoot. Thank you so much Nova!!"
“I did a boudoir shoot to free myself from things that were holding me back and to try and let my inner spirit shine...The session made me feel like…it doesn’t matter if you have flaws…and that I can do anything...it was liberating and awesome! I would tell everybody don’t wait - book!!!”
"Originally, I wanted to do (a boudoir photoshoot) as a fun gift for my husband before I started trying to have a family. But as I started doing more research, I realized I also really wanted to do the shoot for myself. Nova made me so comfortable during the session, it was such a blast...I would just like to say a sincere thank you from the bottom of my heart! I walk away from this experience with a better mindset about my body and beautiful images! I'm so grateful."
"Hi Nova, I just wanted to let you know that my album arrived today and it is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for everything you did to ensure it would arrive on time... We did a first look photo shoot and at the end I presented him with his gift and got the photographer to capture his reaction and it was priceless! He loves it and says it is the best gift he's ever received hands down. Thank you.🥰" "
