Syracuse Boudoir Photography Studio


Welcome
I'm so glad you're here.
I’m Carly, the photographer behind your boudoir experience — and I truly believe every woman deserves to feel powerful, beautiful, and deeply connected to herself.
My studio is located just outside Syracuse, NY, tucked away in the peaceful countryside. It’s the perfect backdrop for capturing your raw, sensual essence in a way that feels effortless and elevated.
This experience isn’t about being “good at photos” or having a certain body type. It’s about coming home to yourself.
My mission is simple: to help you remember who the f*ck you are — beyond the noise, the pressure, and the unrealistic expectations women carry every day. This is about more than lingerie. This is about empowerment, self-celebration, and honoring the woman you are right now.
Let’s create something powerful together.

Hair & Makeup
Professional hair and makeup styling is included in your session fee.
Our amazing stylist comes right to the studio and will tailor your look based on your preferences. Feel free to bring an inspo photo or let her work her magic with a soft, natural glam look that enhances your features without feeling overdone.
For hair: arrive with clean, dry hair. She’ll style it in loose waves or curls to give it texture and movement — perfect for that effortless, “lived-in” vibe we love to play with during your shoot.
Have natural curls or textured hair? Come with it already styled or let us know if you prefer hot tools — we’ll make it work for your vision.

What to Wear
Your wardrobe sets the tone — this is your moment to indulge and express yourself.
- Think luxe lingerie sets, bodysuits, sheer pieces, or an oversized button-down.
- Brands like Honey Birdette and Bluebella are perfect
-
Comfort is key — pick pieces that feel amazing on your body.
- A casual matching set (like Calvin Klein or Skims) can be just as sexy when styled well.
Fine art nude is optional but powerful — often the most transformative part of a session.
- There’s no pressure to bare it all — we’ll go at your pace.
You’ll also receive a full Wardrobe Guide with more tips, styling recommendations, and direct links to my favorite places to shop — so you’ll feel inspired and fully prepared.

Prep Info
Body Hair:
Groom however you normally do — shaved, waxed, natural — it’s all welcome. Come as you are.
Spray Tans:
Optional, but a professional airbrush tan can give a natural glow. (Skip Zoom Tan — go pro to avoid orange tones.)
Facials:
Not required, but a great way to refresh your skin and treat yourself before your shoot.
Nails:
Fresh set or natural — either is perfect. Just make sure they’re tidy and free of chipped polish.
