Nanaimo Luxury Boudoir photographer
helping women see themselves in a new light.
Your moment.
Your power.
This isn't just a photoshoot - it's a journey of self-celebration.
Our luxury boudoir experience is designed to honor you in all your beauty, strength and softness.
From the moment you walk through the door, you'll be pampered, guided and celebrated.
Expect a private, curated session with professional styling, personalized direction and exquisite imagery that captures your essence.
Step into a transformative experience that celebrates you.
Boudoir is more than beautiful images… it’s an awakening. It’s a reclaiming.
It’s a deep breath after years of holding yourself small.
It’s not about being “photogenic.” It’s not about hitting a goal weight.
It’s about showing up exactly as you are and letting yourself be seen in a way you maybe never have before—
through softness, strength, sensuality, and self-love.
Because you don’t have to wait for permission.
You are worthy. Right now.
Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, healing from something heavy, or simply craving confidence…
boudoir gives you a mirror you actually want to look into. One that says:
“This is me. And she is powerful as hell.”
This studio is for you—no matter your size, age, ability, stretch marks, scars, or stories.
You do not need to change anything about yourself to be worthy of a luxury experience.
You don’t need to “get in shape,” hit a goal, or fit into anyone else’s mold.
You are already a masterpiece.
My client closet ranges from XS to 5X because every body deserves beautiful options.
You’ll be gently and expertly guided through every pose and expression. You’ll be supported, celebrated, and seen.
This space was built for women who have never done anything like this before.
It was built for you.
Boudoir doesn’t just change how you look at photos—it changes how you look at you.
You walk in nervous, unsure, maybe even a little scared.
You walk out glowing. Taller. Softer. Fiercer.
You walk out with a kind of confidence that sticks with you long after the lashes come off.
These are real women. Real bodies. Real stories.
They cried at their image reveal. They hugged me tighter than expected.
They messaged weeks, months and even years later to say: “I still look at my photos when I need a reminder of who I am.”
Let their transformations inspire yours.
Because this could be you…
“I never thought I could look like that… but there I was.”
“It changed how I talk to myself.”
“I didn’t know I needed this until I saw my images—and then I couldn’t believe I waited so long.”

Frequently Asked Questions
common concerns & the truth behind them
-
Absolutely! By default all your images are private! I only post images that I have full consent to share! And if you say yes at first but change your mind down the road, they will be removed immediately!
-
That’s exactly why you should do it! Most of the women I have photographed, booked before they were confidence too. Then they left feeling like the baddie they are and with picture proof of that so they never forget again!
This isn’t about being perfect, it’s about seeing yourself through someone else’s eyes and learning to love the body you have now. Not after you’ve lost weight or got the surgery done. Because you deserve to be celebrated and feel good in your body now.
-
I got you girl! I have a client closet of over 200 pieces ranging in sizes XS-5X that is available complimentary to all my clients! And don’t worry, I will help you choose pieces that will be most flattering for your body and, will bring out that inner baddie!
I will also send you a Styling guide to you after you book to help you understand your body type, what styles will be the most flattering, what photographs the best AND where to shop with different budget!
-
Being nervous is completely normal! Seriously! Most women walk in nervous, whether they’ve done one in the past or this is their first time, but by the time we get into the glam process, the nerves are already melting away!
-
Girl, that’s literally what I’m here for! I will demonstrate each pose for you first before it’s your turn! Then I will walk you through each step and help you make any necessary adjustments. From your facial expression, to your hands, to your toes, right down to adjusting those 3 pesky strands of hair that keep getting stuck to your lipstick!
-
Razor bumps, stretch marks, scars, hip dips, cellulite… they're all completely normal. I've seen it all, and none of it makes you less beautiful.
When it comes to editing, I follow a simple rule: if it won't be there in two weeks, I'll gently edit it. Everything else is thoughtfully posed and lit in a way that flatters you, while honoring what makes you uniquely you.
-

-
It’s like spending the day with your own personal hype girl… one who swears like a sailor while telling you how incredible you are. Who forgets where she put her camera down every time. One who knows how to make you look and feel incredible while simultaneously sweating her face off and walking into everything.
You will never feel alone or judged in my presence. We will laugh, be silly and let freak flag fly!
-
You have 2 options! The first is by booking online though any of the “book now” buttons on this site! In the booking link you’ll choose your session date, sign the contract and pay your session fee! You’’l also have the option to add on your collection to pay in full or with Klarna!

OR you can fill out the form on the “enquire” page to schedule a phone consult to hear more about the experience and how we can bring your dream session to life! On the call we will also choose your session date and discuss collections and payment options to find the one best fit for you and your needs!
-
Typically I recommend booking no less than 3 months before you’d like your session to take place but most women book 6-12 months in advance to take advantage of the interest-free in-house payment plans! If you have a specific date you need your products by, please ensure you book your session date for no less than 3 months before the date you need them by.
-
After your session you will head out for lunch while I get your gallery ready for you to see! approximately 60-90 minutes after you leave you will come back for your same day image reveal! This is where you choose your favourite images and the products you’d like!
After the day is over, you’ll receive a few sneak peeks within 48hrs and the remaining digital gallery will be delivered within 4 weeks! All prints and products will be delivered within 3-6 weeks of your digital gallery delivery date. The product turnaround time is dependent on a few factors but the main is the time of year and the labs turnaround time at the time.
The Studio
The studio is located on a private property in the beautiful and quiet area of Cedar Nanaimo.
Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully curated space with soft light, rich textures, moody and romantic jewel tones, and intentional details come together to create a space where you can slow down, exhale, and fully arrive in your body.
This environment was designed to hold space for confidence, vulnerability, creativity, and transformation and feel warm, intimate and grounding, allowing you to fully sink into the experience and be present with yourself.
“For the first time in years, I looked at my photos and actually loved the woman I saw. This experience was pure magic!”

Where confidence meets couture - a luxury experience designed just for you.
Got my sneak peek pics the other day and what can I say. I can't believe this is me. The experience with Deanna was awesome and the results are unbelievable. I booked the session because I'm not happy with my body right now and I lack self confidence but Deanna made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. Best thing I did for myself for a very long time.
