About Lavish
As a woman, I get it. We are sooo freaking hard on ourselves. Especially when we look in the mirror. I have literally cried at Victoria’s Secret. Seriously… they have got to do something about that lighting. If I’m speaking your language, it’s time to book a boudoir photoshoot.
Instead of seeing your wobbly bits, bumps, bruises, blemishes or any other number of “flaws,” after a photoshoot with us, you’ll see a woman confident in her body, her smile, and exuding power.
Our all-female team with years of experience, will help you with everything you need from start to finish no matter how nervous you are.
I specialize in clients who want lots of guidance and coaching from an expert. That’s me! I’ve been doing this since 2009… so I’ve seen and photographed it all. And I’ve loved every minute of it.
Join me in the studio for a laid back, confidence-building and ridiculously fun experience. I’m so excited to meet you.
Cheers!

Founder & PhotographerI started Lavish waaaay back in 2009 when I fell in love with the art of changing the way a woman sees herself. The first time a bride looked at her photos then looked at me with a tear in her eye… I was hooked. Through 2 kids, 4 military moves, 6 studios, hundreds of clients, thousands of photos… it isn’t my job to make you look and feel amazing in photos. It’s my purpose and I am so honored to be considered for your boudoir experience.

Calvert StudiosWhen you book a session, I reserve the studio for 4-8 hours just for us. The makeup artist will meet us on site so that we can get comfortable. Feel free to browse their site to see all of your options… it’s completely gorgeous.

THe boudoir experience
Your experience with Lavish Boudoir will give you the guidance and direction to see yourself as beautiful, truly love photos of yourself, and create confidence you’ll exude every day.
-
Prior to your photoshoot, we will plan everything together. You’ll be sent my Boudoir Bootcamp workbook, we’ll chat on the phone and you’ll get a series of helpful emails. Knowledge is power and power creates confidence.
No idea how to start? Start by trusting me to guide you to look freaking fabulous.

Everything is handled for you. By this time, I’ll have taken care of helping you prepare, booking the studio, hiring the best makeup artist, and knowing just how to take you from nervous to feeling bold.
I have an obsession with detail. Coaching for flattering poses and sultry expressions (no you don’t need to know how). You will be absolutely stunned when I show you the back of the camera the first time.
-
I am not going to leave you to make decisions on your own. Trust me, choosing from dozens of smoking hot photos can be overwhelming. Most women assume they’re only going to truly love a photo or two. Sorry, girl, you’re going to want them all.
We will meet again shortly after your photoshoot. I have samples of my products, swatches of the gorgeous leathers and can help you make the best choices for you. No hard sell. Just a friend to keep the process as easy as possible.

REVIEWS from clients
“I was a little nervous but Leslie’s fun personality will instantly put you to ease. I have never felt more beautiful!! I am so in love with my photos and can’t wait to give my husband the beautifully crafted book”
- Miss B - 10th Wedding Anniversary Gift
“I’m more appreciative of my body and feeling extra confident. I have photographic proof of being a goddess. Leslie and the team made my boudoir dreams come true!”
- Miss S - Bridal Boudoir
“Leslie doesn’t just take incredible photos, she also made the experience fun. Yes, at first it’s odd to be in lingerie around someone you don’t know, but I became extremely comfortable and relaxed. To this day, I look at my photos and feel gorgeous and elated that I chose Lavish Boudoir."
- Miss B - 40th Birthday
All my clients tell me they’ve been “thinking about a boudoir shoot” for ages. Each has let months or maybe even years pass without just going for it. Boudoir is an amazing way to boost your confidence and connect with a new side of you. It’s not just about amazing photos. It’s about pampering yourself, looking your best, and feeling flat-out amazing every time you look at your photos.
