A Great Experience… and a lot of fun!??

When I first came to Seattle Bourdoir Photography and I was nervous. I will also admit I didnt feel very “sexy” going in. It is amazing what a difference several beautiful people (and a glass of champagne) can make! Phil was wonderful and made me feel very relaxed. Before I knew it I was peeling off layers of clothing and laughing the whole time. I especially appreciated the questionnaire that was emailed to me prior to the appointment- it gave me an opportunity to express my comfort level, and the look I was going for, weeks before I cam in. This let me think about what was comfortable for me and really helped me feel at ease. SO MUCH FUN. You seriously will love these pictures for life.?

Fabulous!??

I did a photo shoot for my boyfriend as a gift for us spending a year apart. Nicole, Phil and the whole crew made me feel 100% comfortable. They did an excellent job of doing my hair and makeup and helping me narrow down my outfits. And the rest of the afternoon was just plane fun. What I thought would be an uncomfortable afternoon was just great! They made me laugh immediately and put me at ease. The gift ended up being a great gift for myself and for my boyfriend. And the photo’s speak for themselves they are really amazing. Even coming back to the studio to view them was a great experience. And most importantly my boyfriend and I loved them! I would do it again and recommend them to everyone. An amazing and talented group of people help make Seattle Boudoir Photography an incredible experience.?

—————————————————————————–

Being a professional photographer myself I tend to be fairly pick about what I am looking for in photographs. After looking around quite a bit I found Seattle Boudoir Photography. After looking through their site and gallery of images I decided they were the one! I recently got married and finally decided that this was going to be the wedding gift to my fiancee. Nicole was awesome at helping me get my sitting done in time to have my brag book done before the wedding. My husband loved it! I had an excellent time during the shoot and everyone there made me feel welcome and relaxed. I felt sexy and confident for once! Phil was great, he has vast experience in all realms of photograpy and it shows. I can’t wait to go back for my next sitting! If you are considering doing this – all I can say is this “JUST DO IT”! You won’t regret it.?

—————————————————————————–

I have never felt so empowered in my life! Nicole and Phil and the whole crew are amazing! They make you feel so welcome once you make the first call, any question you have they answer and any request they honor! Phil has an amazing eye for pictures, his shots come out incredible! Wasn’t really nervous going in, but could have run around naked all day after the shoot. If this is something you thinking about doing, you will not regret it. I can’t wait to go back for another event!!?

—————————————————————————–

Seattle Boudoir Photography is everything you would hope it to be. My husband purchased it for me as a gift and after the shoot I said he could do no wrong and he was set for life. By far the best experience for MYSELF I have ever had. All of the staff tend to your needs and make you feel like no one else exists. You come in feeling relaxed and they spend time with you like you were hanging out with your friends. Have fun with this day and do what YOU want to do and you will be greatly rewarded. Nicole is your personal cheerleader and she adds those final touches that make it more sassy and sexy. Phil is so insanely awesome and amazing. I will do this every year from here on out. Thank you so much Seattle Boudoir Photography, you have forever changed me!?

I had been looking for someone who could do photos like this for a long time, but could never find something I felt comfortable with. From the first moment, I felt like this was the right place and the right group of people to work with. Everyone on the team made me feel welcome and at ease asking any questions or voicing any concerns. When it was time for my session, I was totally excited for it & felt confident throughout the process that this was going to turn out the way I had been hoping it would. I was SHOCKED at how beautiful the photos actually turned out!! I was hoping to just get one or two that I could surprise my husband with & actually ended up with a lot of decisions to make!! Phil is truly an artist and he has surrounded himself with an outstanding team of professionals. I felt like I got to be a “cover girl” for a day & most importantly ended up with a lasting gift for my husband that literally brings him to tears just thinking about it! He was so touched that I would do something this personal for him, but Seattle Boudoir Photography made it such a wonderful experience overall that I would do it again in a heartbeat

—————————————————————————–

It is still hard to find the words to describe the awesome experience that was my photo shoot with Phil and his team at Seattle Boudoir.  Phil was the silent man behind the camera while his team of women who radiate “girl power” were there to cheer me on and tell me how fabulous I was.  I know one of the missions of the boudoir aspect of Phil’s work is for the client to walk away feeling empowered and that was certainly the case for me.  It was not until I actually saw the photographs a week later that I realized that not only was I coming away from this experience feeling charged, I was also going to come away with a book of fabulous photographs.  Phil’s creative eye caught things I could never have seen in the mirror and it was very difficult in the end to choose which photos I loved the most. I would definitely recommend Phil and his team.

—————————————————————————–

I did a photo shoot with SBP for a Valentine’s Day gift for my husband. I am so happy with my photos, and the whole experience was simply wonderful! I worked with Phil, Nicole, Jen, and Kim and just had an amazing time! I felt comfortable, and I couldn’t stop laughing. Besides being so professional and very very good at what they do, these folks are good, friendly people, and I wanted to just hang out with them all day! I never felt awkward or embarrassed, and my nervousness was dispelled as soon as I walked in the door. The studio is beautiful and has fantastic atmosphere. I had such a good time that I even talked my very conservative mother into doing this for my parents’ anniversary! I know that they will even make her feel right at home. I definitely recommend that you treat yourself to this experience! Your significant other will be more than happy with the results too.

—————————————————————————–

I was totally suprised how everything turn out so well. I was a little shy and nervous at the beginning but as i moved around a little bit, i felt right at home. The staffs were so friendly and helpful. I had such a good time-with the champagne and the music. I couldnt ask for more.! I love the pictures. What an amazing accomplishment. The team were so organized from the beginning to the end with picking out poses and picking them up. Would i do this again? definitely a BIG YES! would highly recommend this to all those beautiful ladiew out there to take a chance and make it memorable! Treat yourself well!?

—————————————————————————–

I never would have believed that one of the most nervously-anticipated events in my entire life would end up being one of the most fun things that I’ve ever done. I’m naturally shy, especially about nudity and being the center of attention, but I knew this gift idea would leave my ultra-visual boyfriend speechless (and happy). Plus, I wanted it for myself— at 40, I have very few photos of myself (none professional) and I thought it would be nice to someday look back at them when I think being under 50 is youthful! The entire team made the whole experience unforgettable. Expect pampering, hilarity, professionalism and talent dripping from all of them. They’re sophisticated, yet down-to-earth, relaxed, but absolute experts at what they do. You’ll know immediately that they love their jobs. You’ll wish they were your friends in real life. If you’re considering doing this for yourself or someone else, you will be thrilled that you went for it and that you went with the best; I know I am. e

This was an incredible experience!! …. I really wasn’t sure what to expect when I decided to do boudoir photgraphs, I looked around a little on the internet but didn’t really come up with much or what I did see was extremely expensive. But I knew the moment I clicked on Seattle Bourdoir Photagraphy’s website that I was going to have this done and by them! My bf is in the Army and is currently in a very hostile land where I can’t give him my comfort and I recommend every woman do this either for themselves or for someone special. Phil and his magical crew of women gave me the best experience I coukd have imagined this to b… from the hair, make up and champagne to the encouragment of everyone and help with clothes ( or lack of) but still keeping everything classy, comfortable, and extremely enjoyable! I can already imagine doing this again and again with a bunch of themes.?

—————————————————————————–

I am the kind of person to hide from cameras and who does their best to avoid being the center of attention. But as a personal challange and gift to myself and maybe as gift for my boyfriend too , I decided do some boudoir photos. After researching and debating for months, I finally chose Seattle Boudoir Photography because I loved their sample pictures and the website was very informative and professional (some website you have to dig and dig to find out what you want). I can tell you without any hesitation that I made an excellent choice. Arriving I was greeted by smiles and friendly introductions. Then got to plunk down to get my hair and make-up done while indulging in some champagne. Once I was all beautified, I got into my first outfit and start getting pictures. I was a bit worried going in about outfits because I did not have a lot of things to go together so I had just brought anything and everything I thought might work but they managed to get everything looking put together and fantastic, even filling in some things with stuff they had to round out the looks. The photos themselves were a blast to take and the poses and suggestions easy to follow. Only thing I had to work hard at was not to laugh too much because I was having such a blast! If you are considering getting boudoir photos done, go to Seattle Boudoir Photography. You will have a great time during your session and will get some gorgeous photos as a result

Seattle Boudoir Photography is, simply, amazing!

When I decided I wanted to do something really different and surprising for my husband’s 40th birthday, I could never have imagined I would be giving myself as much of a gift as I gave him. From the first phone call I made to receiving my final product, I had nothing but a pleasant and remarkable experience.

I’ve never been a particularly shy person when it comes to getting naked, but the thought of stripping down in front of several people AND a camera had me a bit nervous. But, the second I set foot in the studio I relaxed because everyone was pleasant, friendly and genuinely excited to meet me and work with me.

Jennifer did a great job on my hair and makeup, capturing the exact look I was going for. Merilee and Nicole did wardrobe, lighting and set design and were the best cheerleaders a naked girl could ever ask for! And photographer Phil put me at ease and brought out the sexy pin-up girl in me. He also seemed just as thrilled about photographing me as I was about posing for his camera. The whole staff doted on me and made me feel like a goddess. They worked together to come up with great ideas and the attention to detail, lighting, color, even hand placement, was impressive. I’ve never felt so hot!

When I went back to see my photos, I couldn’t believe how many I loved and had a hard time narrowing it down. Nicole spent a long time going through each photo, providing her input and advice, and helped me make a great decision.

The best part of the whole experience was, of course, the look on my husband’s face when he opened his gift. And I was able to take him back to the studio later to view all my other photos so he could choose more.

The greatest thing about Seattle Boudoir Photography is that it’s not just about sexy photos, it’s about creating an experience I loved my experience, I love the staff and I highly recommend Seattle Boudoir Photography if you’re even thinking about doing a sexy, pin-up style photo session. I can’t say enough good things about this studio and the people involved.

I am probably the last person who would ever go in for boudoir portraits. I think most people who know me would agree I’m pretty modest and introverted. In fact, the last time I had my picture professionally taken was for my senior portrait in high school (not even for my own wedding!). However, after my awesome experience with Seattle Boudoir Photography, I will definitely be back for more. Phil, Jen, Nicole and Merilee were incredible!

While I will admit it did take me a bit of time to loosen up once I did, I had a blast. The shoot definitely makes you feel like a movie star…..and everyone works hard to make you totally comfortable. I was also very impressed with the hair and makeup. Definitely a glamorous look, but I still felt like myself in there. The best part was presenting the pictures to my husband and watching the astonished look on his face when he opened the box.

Looking for something different and a special gift for your husband,fiancee or boyfriend then I would recommend Seattle Boudoir Photography. I’ve been wanting to do a boudoir pictures for three years as a different gift for my beloved husband,Chris. Everytime I google something, it always came out with just one result in Seattle but I didn’t feel comfortable with it. When they told me around June 2009 that I will be deploy, I want to give something special for my husband. On August, I thought about leaving a really great pictures of me for my husband so I search again for a boudoir pictures . I saw the Seattle Boudoir Photography, I check out the website and I feel like this is the one. I request them to contact me and two hours later, I talk to Jennifer. I explained to her my situation and she managed to scheduled me around with my busy schedule. I got my pictures taken on 29 August and the minute I walk in inside the studio, I never felt so welcome with such a great friendly smile. The studio was nice and inviting. Jennifer did a great job with my hair and make up. Merilee and Nicole picked out the outfit for me to wear and Phil is one awesome photographer. The girls are so great for making me not so nervous and made me laugh and I felt so comfortable with it. On September 12, I went back to view my pictures and I was so speechless. Phil captured my beauty and I never felt so beautiful in my life until I saw it. I had a very hard time narrowing down my pictures and thanks to Nicole, she came to the rescue. The team did a great outstanding job and I want them to thank them from the bottom of my heart for a very wonderful experienced. If I could give this more than a five stars, I would give it a million of stars. I would really recommend this and I would do it again in a heartbeat

When I originally booked my photo shoot with Seattle Boudoir Photography, I didn’t know what to expect. I’ma fairly modest individual and didn’t think I had what it took to “go all out” When I arrived for my shoot, I was greeted with a friendly smile and a strong mimosa. Exactly what I needed to ease the nerves. After getting hair and makeup done (fabulous!) It was go time. So, I changed into my first outfit that the ladies helped me decide on (Bring everything! they told me) and was taken to the set. It was such a natural experience. I got to use some props and poses that I didn’t expect would go over well. ( cat ears, Dungeons & dragons master guide, umbrella) They were willing to incorporate all my crazy ideas and still make it sexy too! The staff was extraordinarily professional and I didn’t feel judged at all. As a matter of fact, for a fleeting moment I forgot I was letting it all hang out! I would recommend SBP for anyone looking for a one of a kind gift for their special someone. Thanks again guys!

first heard of Seattle Boudoir Photography from a work colleague who had a photo shoot for her fiancee. When she told me what she was doing, I thought “Gee, she doesn’t seem like that kind of gal”. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t mean the kind of gal who would dress up in absurdly high heels and lingerie and smile for the camera, I thought any gal, deep down, wants to do that. I just didn’t expect that she’d tell anyone she was doing it. Well, now that I’ve dressed up in heels and not much else, I want to tell everyone, too! Do this for yourself, it’s a blast! Want to feel like a model for the day? Drink champagne and feel beautiful? Who doesn’t? Makes a great gift!

I had my photo shoot at Seattle Boudoir Photography last week and I was pretty nervous going into it, as I had never done anything like that before. From the minute I walked in the studio, I was put at ease by the comfortable atmosphere and warm, supportive team. My hair and makeup turned out wonderfully! Phil is an amazing photographer, and he has an ability to make you feel relaxed and comfortable.

After viewing the photos, I was so excited to see how many I fell in love with. I had ordered ten photos, and I had a hard time choosing! Phil has a real talent for choosing flattering, elegant angles of the body and accentuating your best features. There were quite a few artistic shots that I loved, and I was extremely happy with the overall results. I did the shoot as an anniversary present for my boyfriend, but I also had the photos taken for me. It feels great to have a collection of sexy, classic images where you truly feel beautiful.

—————————————————————————–

I had these pictures done for my husbands 40th Birthday. I had been thinking about doing something like this for years- but never had the courage to do it. I figured now or never and I am so glad I did it. Phil, Jen, and Nicole know how to make you feel comfortable, at ease, and beautiful. I have alway hated my picture taken, but at the end of the photo session I actually said, “That was fun!!”

They do everything for you, you just have to show up and they will make you beautiful and sexy. The studio is amazing!! When my husband open the pictures he was speechless. He thought that it was the best present I could have ever given him. I look at the pictures everyday and can’t believe that it’s me I’m looking at. I thank Phil, Jen, and Nicole for showing that i am without a doubt beautiful and sexy!!!

—————————————————————————–

I have never tried anything like this before but I wanted to give my husband something different for our 10 year anniversary. I am an average looking really shy girl so I didnt expect much. Quite frankly even terrified exposing myself in front of a photographer and a group of gals.

The studio is immaculate! Everything looked so inviting. They did everything and more to make me and my friend feel comfortable. Jen exceeded my expectations with my hair and makeup and Nicole picked out amazing outfits from my collection. I would totally do this again! Every girl should give this place a try! Phil was so professional and talented. He’s a sweetheart! He has a great eye, capturing beauty where there isnt much. Thank you so much to the gang at seattle boudoir photography!

I experienced Seattle Boudoir Photography during a bachelorette party for a close friend.  It was truly the most fun and most memorable bachelorette party I have been to!

The studio is classy, intimate, and inviting.  The staff (Phil, Nicole, Jen, and Marileigh) are phenominal.  They are professional, and they will make you feel like a supermodel!  I was especially impressed with their keen eye for details.  Whether that meant positioning every strand of hair perfectly or letting everything flow, they knew what they were doing!

If you are looking to have an extraordinary bachelorette party or just want to have some boudoiresque pictures taken for a loved one, this is the place to do it!  I will be back!

I wanted to let you know that the mail service did their job.  I expected the photos to arrive in Iraq on Thursday, but low and behold they arrived today, on Armed Forces Day.  If I had attempted to to make that part happened, it never would have.

I asked SGT B to wait and open the box after he was on Skype with the webcam tonight.  The first photo he opened was the corset and wine bottle.  He thoroughly enjoyed that and decided he was taking that one to his office for his desk.  I had included a silver shadowbox frame for him to use.  When he opened the two-fold leg shots, he was speechless.  Seriously speechless, and very emotional.  Soldiers don’t cry, but he was teary-eyed.  By the end of our conversation he was taking the two-fold to work so that he had something to look forward to everyday when going to the office.

I replayed as much of the ’shoot’ day for him as I could remember, from what I had written as a reminder.  Unfortunately, it was a bit of a blurr.   It sounds like I will be back for another shoot, with SGT B in tow this time.   He was enthralled with the whole process and then had to look at your website.  I don’t know if you have a link or can show him some of my other photos, but he would like to see some if you can, and may be emailing you with that request.

Phil, you did an incredible job capturing “me” for him.  Jen, you made me beautiful beyond belief, and Nicole…… thank you for helping me choose the best of the best for him – and putting my wardrobe together  

Thank you for the encouragement all of you gave me to make this such a successful opportunity to do something special for SGT B.
Armed Forces Day was a success with your help! 

Thank you so much!

Phil and his team were fantastic.  I went with my friend for her boudior photography session and we had a great time.  She was excited but nervous.  Jennifer, Nicole and Anne put her at ease with their friendly conversation and the easygoing environment.  It all felt like just hangin’ out with girlfriends.  My friend really enjoyed having her hair and makeup done.  She rediscovered that she is fabulously feminine and beautiful.  There were so many great photos that she had a hard time narrowing down to the favorites.  Her husband will be absolutely thrilled with his birthday present.  It was all so much fun and so empowering that now I can’t wait to go!

—————————————————————————–

I just wanted to give you girls a big thanks for Saturday.  I had a fantastic time and my makeup and hair was awsome.  You all made me feel very beautiful and relaxed and you are great fun to listen to.  I will definately recommend the photoshoot and your salon (Pinup Salon) to my friends.
 
Thanks again, you girls rock.

I had my very first photo session on Sunday, January 25th for the Valentine’s Boudoir Photography Day with Phil, Jennifer, Nicole and Anne.

I was greeted by Phil and the ladies, they made me feel very welcome and excited, despite the fact that I was very NERVOUS!!!

My champagne and snacks were ready at my arrival! Jennifer, who did an AWESOME job on my hair and make-up and a great listener (wink wink). Nicole went through my wardrobe with me and a quick run-down on a few poses that she had in mind…SEXY!!! Phil with his lens and gentle voice and Anne quietly video-taping the session…nervousness….GONE!!!

Phil and the ladies made me feel incredibly beautiful and comfortable during my photo session. I can’t wait to meet up with Anne to see how my photos turned out, so EXCITED!!!

I hope every girl in the Seattle Area gets a chance to treat themselves (and their significant other) to a photo shoot at Seattle Boudoir Photography. If you’re thinking about doing it, DO IT!!! I had an amazing experience and I can’t wait to do another session…

Hi everyone:

Just wanted to thank you for such a wonderful time last night! I really appreciate how nice and helpful everyone was.  You made me feel comfortable and I had such a blast!  You really did go above and beyond all of my expectations and I can’t wait to see the pics!  Hope everyone is having a wonderful day and see you soon

 

Thanks,

I was so thrilled to meet Phil and the team and spend time with them as they discovered the type of photo shoot I had envisioned for myself.  We spent time looking at his own work and other photography books for ideas and his learning about comforts and discomforts.  When setting up my appointment and leading up to the appointed time, he made sure I had all my questions answered, did I have any additional requests, last minute thoughts.  It was all about me.  Everything was set up (makeup), his assistant is as easy to be with/around as was Phil’s easy manner.  I couldn’t have been more comfortable had I been in my own home.  While very professional, it is a relaxing environment. 
 
I would love to do another shoot, but I don’t know how I would/could change the product I have now from this one.
