Natural Minneapolis Boudoir Portraits

As we were planning her boudoir session, Arielle was excited about creating these portraits as a way to celebrate herself. She is a passionate, outgoing person who loves nature, and she wanted her portraits to feel strong and happy. As Arielle and I were discussing the style for her Minneapolis boudoir portraits, she felt drawn towards natural, joyful images that would reflect her personality. 

When she arrived her session, I introduced her to my hair and makeup artist, Kelsey Schwartz. Arielle wanted to play up her eyes and keep a natural, fresh style of makeup overall, and she was hoping for loose, romantic curls. Kelsey did a beautiful job showcasing Arielle's natural beauty while helping her feel fancy and camera-ready. 

Here is what Arielle had to say about her Minneapolis boudoir portraits: 

Alyssa did a fabulous job leading the session. I really appreciated the encouraging, playful way she directed my posing. She made me feel beautiful and gave me the confidence to know that I was doing a good job. I felt ecstatic when I left my boudoir session. It was such a fun, empowering experience. It felt like I was laughing throughout nearly the entire session!

When I stepped into Alyssa’s studio and saw all of her stunning photos, I was honestly overjoyed. I could hardly believe how gorgeous the pictures turned out! I loved the way I looked in all of them and was really impressed with the quality and artistry of the photographs.

Alyssa is phenomenal to work with. She is incredibly positive, communicative, and professional. She has an uncanny ability to make her clients feel comfortable, strong, and beautiful. I left my session feeling ecstatic. It was such a fun, empowering experience. It felt like I was laughing nearly the entire time! I couldn’t recommend Alyssa highly enough. She is a true gem!
