The Experience

Welcome to Boudoir by Iris, a transformative experience that celebrates your unique story through intimate portraiture.The majority of my clients have never had a professional photoshoot, much less a boudoir photoshoot. No worries, you are in good hands! I'll walk you through the entire process.

Based in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and working in the vibrant NYC boroughs, my photography is all about empowering you to see yourself in a new light, capturing the essence of who you are with a style that’s both classy and edgy, never cheesy. You might have found me on Instagram, TikTok, or through my Google page —however you arrived here, what likely drew you in was my unique take on boudoir.  Clients describe my work as bold, elegant, and refreshingly free from the clichés of typical boudoir photography. Whether you're celebrating a personal milestone like maternity, post-breast cancer recovery, an upcoming wedding, or treating yourself to a self-love session, the experience is deeply personal and tailored to you!

The Process:

Once you reach out here or send me a DM on social media, I’ll send you my pricing guide, where you can select from three thoughtfully curated packages designed to meet your needs. After booking, we’ll secure your date with a 50% non-refundable deposit, and we’ll remain in close contact leading up to your shoot. I’m always available to answer questions via video call, phone, text, or email, making sure you're fully prepared and excited for the day.

Before the big day, you’ll receive a comprehensive digital preparation guide that walks you through everything—from what to wear, to how to prepare mentally and emotionally. If you need extra outfit advice or reassurance, I’m just a message away!

The Day of the Shoot:

On the day of your session, you’ll arrive at my cozy Brooklyn studio, where I’ll welcome you in. I’ll introduce you to my professional makeup artist, with whom I’ve worked for over five years. Her gentle touch and incredible skill will make you feel radiant as you settle into the experience. We will look through all your wardrobe option. Then as she applies your makeup, I’ll be preparing everything for the shoot—organizing poses and ensuring you feel comfortable and relaxed. You can sip on coffee, tea, or water, and enjoy the chill vibes of the studio as we listen to your favorite tunes.

The Day of the Shoot Continued:

Once the makeup artist has finished, we’ll start the shoot, and this is where the magic happens. I’ll guide you through every pose with care, showing you exactly how to move and making sure you feel comfortable and confident. It’s a fun, playful experience—far more lighthearted than many expect. We'll laugh, and I will be coaching you and encouraging you the entire time. If you are lucky I will give you a few sneak peeks on my camera. I don't want to spoil the reveal, but most of the time, I can't help myself. As the shoot progresses, the studio transforms into a creative whirlwind. I’ll be moving props, rearranging sets, and getting into the flow. By the end, you’ll probably find me with my shoes off, my hair up in a messy bun, and mascara smudged from looking through the camera. It gets a little chaotic, but that’s part of the fun-trust the process!

After the Shoot:

Two weeks later, we’ll have a photo reveal over Zoom, where you’ll see 50-60 of the best images from your session. Together, we’ll select the images you love most for final edits. If you’ve ordered an album, expect it within 6-8 weeks, either mailed to you or available for pickup at the studio.

From beginning to end, the experience is straightforward, and I provide guidance and support every step of the way.
