I’m so excited to announce my first boudoir mentoring sessions! It's taken me a looooooong time to get to where I am, and i’ve basically learned along the way. I began shooting boudoir in 2015, had Facebook groups and then didn’t, blogged, didn’t blog and then did again. Today, you’ll find me on page one of Google, and I didn't pay to get there. :)

I want to invite you into my studio, where we will talk natural light, client experience, sales and simple SEO tricks to get your rankings up.

December 14, 2019 GROUP Mentoring. 9am-1pm

You’ll have the chance to work with two different models, learn natural studio light, watch leslie pose and interact with the models, see products and learn sourcing info, etc.

$200. Only 6 slots available.

$75 due now, $125 due 48 hours before the class.

January 5, 2020 PRIVATE Mentoring. 9-1pm

$500 individual, $650 with a partner ($325 each).

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

I liked that you offered the short sheet session since I hadn’t ever done boudoir pics before.

What were you nervous about going into your session?

Being naked in front of someone other than my husband. Knowing that my body is far from perfect.

What was your favorite part of your session experience?

Feeling more confident once you started taking pictures.

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

I love them. It definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone.

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

Yes, I absolutely would. I love your studio and that you have a lot of outfits to wear. You made things very easy and comfortable.

Boudoir photos don’t have to be lingerie. You can really make them your own. Your favorite t-shirt, or wearing a piece of clothing that means a lot to you. When you think about getting your boudoir photos taken, don’t limit yourself to lace. Try to think outside of the box. ‘

Petite Boudoir Sessions are a great way to book a session with me. The sessions are sweet and to the point. You come to see me with your hair and makeup already complete (either made up, or some ladies love to do a session in their everyday look). We typically have time to shoot 2-3 outfits as well as sheet photos.

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

Leslie is just a wonderful person.

What were you nervous about going into your session?

Just being naked in front of someone.

What was your favorite part of your session experience?

How Leslie made me so comfortable and talked me through everything.

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

I feel great.

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

I Already have to several of my friends!!!

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

This was my second session with Leslie. I saw her post some pictures and knew I needed to get pictures done by her, after the first session I was hooked.

What were you nervous about going into your session?

I am a shy person and although I have done boudoir in the past I always get nervous that I won’t be “sexy” enough and the pictures won’t turn out the way I imagine them to.

What was your favorite part of your session experience?

I love how empowered I felt after the session. I work a lot and am a single mother so I am always putting everyone else’s needs ahead of my own. It’s easy to forget that I am able to be a sexy woman, this session reminded me of that.

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

More self confident.

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

Of course! Leslie is easy to relate to, she makes the sessions fun. She makes you comfortable and it is easy to forget you are half naked in front of her and just be yourself.

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

I chose Blush Studio because her photos stood out the most to me and from reading her posts I could tell every person she worked with had fun and loved their photos so much. And by looking out her photos I could tell she added her own personal touch to them.

2. What were you nervous about going into your session?

That I wouldn't honestly adore my photos or they wouldn't turn out the way I wanted them to look. Or I would mess up on the different poses because I'm super stiff and not photogenic at all.

3. What was your favorite part of your session?

My favorite part of the session was actually the different poses I got to try out, which I never done before.  And definitely getting my makeup done by Hailey.

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

I feel great and more confident in my own skin.  I actually for once feel sexy and beautiful and love the way my photos turned out. I can't wait to surprise my boyfriend with them!:)

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

I would definitely recommend Leslie to book a boudoir session with. Not only she works with on the different poses. She's makes you feel super comfortable through the whole thing and makes you laugh as well to ease your mind. She makes sure you leave happy and knowing that your photos turned out beautiful and lovely. And I would definitely do this again.

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

Leslie is one of the most down to Earth people that I know and I could easily talk to her before the session.

What were you nervous about going into your session?

Was I nervous!? Absolutely! But we got to know each other, talked, and joked around. Made it more personal and easier to be comfortable.

What was your favorite part of your session?

My favorite part was how excited Leslie would get when she would get amazing shots. Like having your own cheerleader and she would show you how awesome it is.

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

I feel more in love with myself. I've had a rough few months and it helped me realize that I still need to focus on me.

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

Oh God yes!! I have already been talking with a friend about getting with Leslie sometime soon to do some shoots! After experiencing the session with her I wouldn't go to anyone else. I adore her!

I’ve known Hailey for about two years. I photographed her wedding and all of the details leading up to it. Even a pre-wedding boudoir session. :). I’m so happy that Hailey and I found each other, and below you can find out a little bit more about her. Because Hailey has been where you will be, I think that you’ll feel even more comfortable during your session and she will show you it’s ok to think “ DAMN, I look good !!!” Read on to find out more about Hailey. :)

What do you think having her makeup done professionally does for a woman, especially when it comes to boudoir?

I think that doing a woman's makeup enhances the beauty that they already have. It gives them confidence and every time I finish a clients makeup you can tell by the way they look in the mirror and start taking selfies !!! Doing boudoir makeup in particular is my favorite. The look on their face when they see the photos and realize that that is them and they DO look sexy! I think it is such an amazing thing that happens to them and it boost there self love. Having a boudoir session in itself is such an amazing experience and I think EVERY woman should do it.

What are some of your favorite hair and makeup products?

I really like to use Mac, morphe, Fenty, and Anastasia the most for makeup. Paul Michael, Moroccan oil, and bumble and bumble for hair.

How long have you been in business?

I have been a licensed cosmetologist for 4 years.

If you had to grab three makeup products in an emergency, what would you grab?

Too faced sweet tea bronzer, Jaclyn hill morphe pallet, and Mac fix plus spray!!

Flat iron or curling wand?

Marcel curling iron over any other styling tools!!

If you had to pick one thing about your job, what is your favorite?

My favorite part of my job is doing transformations and when people say “wow I never thought I could look like that !!!”

Where are you from originally and how did you end up in Shreveport?

I am originally from Canada Prince Edward Island and moved to Shreveport because my mom met my step dad “who was on vacation in PEI” and they got married, so we moved here!

What is your favorite coffee ? (Hint, Hint). :)

I loveee chi tea latte and white chocolate mochas.

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. : )

“Know who you are, and know it’s enough. ”

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.

You might think that a boudoir session is for who society says is ‘sexy’. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. We ALL struggle with who we are, what we look like, are we successful enough, are our kids happy etc.

BOUDOIR IS FOR EVERY WOMAN.

BOUDOIR IS FOR EVERY BODY.

BOUDOIR IS FOR YOU.

Regardless of the faults you see in yourself, boudoir can be the confidence boost you're looking for.

A boudoir photographer should accentuate your favorite body part, and help you see the beauty in the rest of yourself too.

Things to consider when thinking about booking a boudoir session.

PRICE.

You’ll typically see prices ranging from ‘affordable’ to ‘expensive’; and everyone’s idea of those things are completely different. We spend more on a cut of meat because it taste better and we spend more on a certain type of car because we like the way it looks. Why shouldn’t you choose your boudoir photographer with the same things in mind.

How will the photographer make you feel? To me, that is the biggest factor.

Blush Studio by Leslie offers sessions beginning at $199.

LOCATION.

Will you need to rent a motel room, will you have your photos taken at home or does your photographer provide a private studio location that is set up perfectly for boudoir?

Blush Studio by Leslie offers the perfect studio location for your session, and each session is set up with slight differences so that no one session is the same.

WHAT DO YOU GET WITH YOUR SESSION FEE?

Some boudoir photographers give you all the digital images, some limit the amount of digital images that come with your session. Some photographers do not give you any digital images with your session fee, and some might include an album or prints. You have to decide what is most important to you. I think prints or an album are the best option, because you should get to enjoy the images - because you’re going to love them.

Blush Studio by Leslie offers all the digitals with some sessions, limits them with others and offers albums and prints too.

So, is boudoir for you?

XOXO,

Leslie
