Brittany came to me after her husband urged her to. A lot of my clients struggle with their self-image, we all do. We get lost in the day to day of our lives, kiddos running us around like crazy all the time, doing all the things we do for our husbands or partners. Laundry, I know it overwhelms me. So often, with all the things we need to do, we forget who we were. We forget to take care of ourselves while we are busy taking care of everyone else.

Brittany came to see me because her husband encouraged her to and she ended up LOVING it, begging to come back again only a few months later. Boudoir sessions aren’t just about who you might be giving the photos to, these sessions are really for you - even if you might not mean for it to be.

You don’t even have to worry about what you are going to wear, because I’ve got over 300 outfits for you choose from! Our closet is full of outfits ranging from size 5x-Xs. Whatever you want, I got ya girl.

Hair and makeup are also provided by my in-house stylist, Hailey. Hailey is licensed to work in Louisiana too, and even went to school for hair and makeup! She is so fabulous; I seriously can't even tell you how many times clients ask me for her contact information so that they can hire her for an event.

Take a look at Brittany’s photos below, these are from her first boudoir session with me, she’s already been back for another session. :)

I have this little Facebook Group. I guess it’s not so ‘little’ anymore, at over 2,000 members. We keep it to just women, so that each member is able to feel safe talking about girl stuff. :) Anyway, from time to time I will post model calls for specific ideas. Mrs. A answered a model call I did a few months ago for a glitter bath. We were supposed to do this session the beginning of August, but I ended up developing pre-eclampsia at 33 weeks and delivering at 36.6 weeks (just a few days before we’d scheduled this particular session). We finally got to do this session last week, and it was so much fun!

Mrs. A came to the studio at 930 and meet Hailey in her space for hair and makeup. She’d washed her hair the evening before, and it was brushed backwards. Typically, we curl or do big waves, but Hailey thought the slick backed look would look so good for her glitter bath. Her hair would be getting wet anyway, so curls would be a waste in the end. Hailey was so right! I ended up loving what Hailey did, and Mrs. A asked for a pop of purple in her eyeshadow. I did greens, blue and silver for her glitter bath and IT TURNED OUT SO DANG PRETTY!!!

This is the third session that Mrs. A has done with me, she keeps coming back for more. Boudoir photos are seriously ADDICTIVE, and I really can’t blame ya’ll. They are definitely one of my top three session types that I do, and they definitely are a love of mine. I love the outcome, you guys seeing your photos. Did you know that my clients see their photos THE VERY SAME DAY of their session? I do not want you guys to have to wait to see how fucking fabulous you are, and really there is a science to it. I want you to see what the camera sees, before I edit. I think it really brings your self-confidence full circle. I am not a heavy editor anyway, but I find that if you do not see your unedited images that clients THINK I’ve done some crazy editing to them - when I DO NOT. I want you to see what everyone else sees when they look at you! I want you to see yourself, for the badass that you are!

If you’re looking to be lifted up, if you’re looking for a boudoir photographer in Shreveport, I would absolutely LOVE to talk with you and see if we are a good fit! Fill out my contact form so we can get started.

Hailey has been my client for a few years! We normally do boudoir when she comes to see me, but this time she was getting married and i just had to take her bridals. She’s coming back to see me soon, with her new hubby and i can absOLUTELY not wait! he’s so nervous too, lol. it’s going to be a blast.

hailey got her hair and makeup done in studio, by my artist who is also named hailey. it’s confusing, i know. lol. I feel like i have so many clients named hailey, and caroline has been a name I have a lot lately too. That has no corelation to each other lololol.

We took photos in the studio and then walked a couple of blocks around the studio too. makeup hailey went with us and helped fluff the dress, we had a client after her that day too and hailey was a ton of help with the dress. she doesn’t normally get to hang out with us as we shoot, so it was a totaly treat for her.

I hope you love Hailey’s Bridal PORTRAITS; they are so freakin gorgeous.

A lot of perspective clients are so nervous about the day of, and not even just about being nakey in front of someone new. I try to make the entire day silly, all about the client and super simple to follow. The last thing I want is for my client to ask me what’s happening next. So, we go over what to expect on the phone and in their day before e-mail too. Keep reading to find out how my sessions flow.

Sessions are held on weekdays, typically Tuesday through Thursday. When you arrive at the studio, I meet you downstairs and walk you up. My on staff stylist are waiting on you upon arrival and we begin hair and makeup. It will take the stylist about an hour to complete your look and during that time I am near by so that we can get to know each other better and decide on outfits for your session. I also have snacks, drinks and bubbly out for you to enjoy during this time.

Petite sessions allow for three outfits and artistic nudes. Now, you might have just gone “OHmygawwwwd. I could never do nudes!”. You’re wrong, I promise! Just look below. :) Full sessions can be up to 10 outfits, sheets and artistic nudes. A petite session typically has at least 30 final images and a full session can have 70 or more.

After makeup and outfit selections are done, we get right to shooting. We shoot for about 45 minutes with a petite session and up to two hours for a full. Depending on how things go, we may not need that much time for either session.

After we are done taking your boudoir photos, I give you time to change back into your street clothes and I get all of your images pulled up and saved. I make the first pass on my own, but you’re able to watch me. I get rid of anything out of focus, repeats, crazy faces (we giggle a lot) and anything I would think unusable in a final gallery.

Then you get to take control. You get to view every single image and choose which ones are your favorite. Don’t worry, I help you the whole time. I have spent years learning how to use light + shadows, how to get the most out of my camera, and how to get the photos I take as close to the final product as possible.

A lot of my clients already know that they want a 10x10 album, the digitals and some wall art and most of the time they pre-pay for those items before their session. When they do that they get free stuff too! Like, a second hair and makeup look, free product, they get to wear my wings or even do a shower set (there’s more!). So we get to work getting our image numbers right for what they are wanting. Sometimes clients choose to upgrade, because there are SO MANY good images!

After the session digital images and prints take about 2 weeks to arrive and albums take about three. I do my best to have a quick turnaround, because who wants to wait!

Want to book your own boudoir session with me? Go to the tab called “contact leslie” and fill out the form. I’ll get back to you super soon!

xoxo, Leslie

I take care of everything needed for your boudoir session. I have over 200 lingerie outfits on hand, ranging between sizes xs to 4x. I provide jewelry, shoes, hair and makeup too! You don’t have to stress over what you’re going to wear, ordering online and it not fitting or making a special trip to the store. Every single thing is taken care of for you!

Sometimes you just have to get yourself a birthday present! What better than gorgeous photos of yourself, a self love day with me and a confidence booster? Kera did just that! She’s got two babies, just changed jobs and was running on empty. She needed a pick me up and boudoir photos were just the ticket!

Her favorite color is yellow, so we added in a little spice even when she wasn’t wearing yellow herself.

I love how her session turned out, and her album is gorgeous!

These are my top 5 favorites from her session. :)

There’s something about simple sheet boudoir photos; I absolutely love them! A lot of times clients will choose ‘sheets’ as one of their outfits. You can go completely bare, using the sheet to cover. You can wear a simple outfit that matches the sheets, or you can wear your favorite color undies to add a pop of color.

Check out my ‘blush babes’ from March. I’m drooling. :)

Eight women are a part of my monthly model club. A simple sign up fee, monthly sessions and three complimentary images each month. By the end of the year they’ll all have thirty six images with 12 different themes! That’s pretty cool right?

Check out each model below, and tell me who’s outfit you liked the best!

First up - Sweaters!

Christina is a new client, and I love shooting with her! I think she may be as addicted as Hailey :). She came in with NO confidence, and you’d never know it now! My favorite part about being a boudoir photographer is watching women blossom. It isn’t even about feeling sexy, boudoir is about feeling beautiful. There is a big difference!

What made you choose Blush Studio by Leslie for your boudoir session?

I have followed Leslie’s work for a while on Facebook. I really admire the work she does and I love the elegance and beauty of her images.

What were you nervous about going into your session?

I was very nervous until I meet Leslie and Britney; they made me feel so comfortable instantly. They’re also both hilarious!!

What was your favorite part of your session experience?

My favorite part of my session was being out of my comfort zone, but being confident in my body.

How do you feel now that you have completed your session and received your images?

After four children and in my mid 30’s I’ve aged and my body has changed so much. Doing a boudoir session was always on my bucket list, but I never thought I’d have the time much less confidence to do it. Now after seeing my images I have a new found sense of confidence and self worth that I’ve never had. I am addicted to the feeling two sessions later and I’m scheduled to go back all year!!!!!

Would you recommend Leslie to other ladies looking to book a boudoir session? Why?

Hell yes! Leslie is absolutely amazing and so good at what she does!! Go for it girl, she’s got you and you won’t regret it!!

Hailey came to see me near the beginning of January for her first session (yep, she’s already had another one). She booked for a personal reason, one that required her to remember who she is. People book for a lot of reasons. Sometimes it’s because they want to give their partner a gift, sometimes it’s because they are getting married and want to give their new husband an album on their wedding day, sometimes it’s because they just need a pick me up and sometimes it’s because they’ve been through something and they’ve totally lost themselves. Whatever reason you do it for, at the end of the day… it’s really for you. At least it will be when it’s over.

One of the best parts of booking a boudoir session with me is that you get to see your images before you even leave the studio. Everyone loves immediate gratification, and I do it because I know that clients do. But, really I do it because I love to SEE you SEE yourself. EVERY SINGLE WOMAN who sits down with me to see their photos, just as the camera takes them… with NO editing, says “ that’s me?!?!? I look like that? “. We spend so much time focusing on our flaws, we miss our beauty. We have stories, reasons to not like our appearance, reasons we think give us an excuse NOT to love ourselves. If we can just look past them, we’ll fall in love all over again - maybe for the first time - with ourselves. Watching as that happens, that’s worth more than any dollars, worth more than any words I could hear. Seeing you fall in love with you, that’s my favorite part.

What made you choose Blush Studio by Leslie for your boudoir session?

I saw some of Leslie's work on a friend's page and was immediately drawn to it. She does such a great job of capturing the fierceness and beauty of these women. None of her work ever made me think "o that's a little too raunchy", every thought was "hell yea, look at her owning it!"

What were you nervous about going into your session?

EVERYTHING! Lol, would they turn out good? Would I be comfortable doing them? But Leslie is awesome and makes you feel completely at ease!

What was your favorite part of your session experience?

The way I felt while taking them. It really is an empowering feeling. It was so much fun to do!

How do you feel now that you have completed your session and received your images?

I feel more self confident and just fierce in my own skin, dang it! It really helped me to stop being so hard on myself for all my self determined "flaws".

Would you recommend Leslie to other ladies looking to book a boudoir session? Why?

Heck yes! She's awesome at what she does! If you are contemplating it, just stop and DO IT! You won't regret it, as a matter of fact, you'll be ready for session 2 before the first one is ever over.

You’re pregnant. You’re excited. You’re thinking about maternity pictures.

This is the perfect opportunity. Why not combine maternity portraits and boudoir? The female form changes a lot during pregnancy, and it’s gorgeous. I know, you might not feel all the hotness - but you should !!!

Yoana booked both, and it’s spectacular. : )

I am obsessed with making women feel beautiful. Yes, we all struggle with seeing who we are, and measuring our own worth. I struggle with it daily, and in some way when women tell me how amazed they are by their photos it makes me see the beauty in myself. I love hearing, “oh my gawwwwd, that’s ME?!?!”, and they knowing that I literally didn’t do anything to their bodies in the final images.
