Boudoir might have the perception of just posing as sexy as possibly while wearing as little clothing as possible - and while that can be true, boudoir is so much more than that!

• YES to connecting to your sensual, divine goddess that lives within you and allowing her to emerge from where she has been hidden!
• YES to unleashing your powerful and sexy warrior that fights to be seen and appreciated!
• YES to not only feeling, but knowing your worth because darlin', you are SO worth it!!!
• And YES to an incredible, unforgettable boudoir experience and gorgeous photographs of yourself that you will be proud of and love forever!!
Are you ready to say YES to yourself?!

I am absolutely in love with the photos from my boudoir session with Marissa and cannot recommend a session with her enough!! :)
I am very camera shy and was amazed at how comfortable Marissa made me feel. The session was awesome and I can't wait to book with her again! Her artistic vision was immediately apparent, and she guided the direction of poses, location and wardrobe with ease. Marissa made me feel like the wild forest witch I've always dreamt of being, and the entire experience was so empowering, compassionate, and FUN <3 Thank you, Marissa, for making all of my photoshoot dreams come true.

It is amazing how an artist can capture a moment in time through a lens or on a canvas. Its as if they see the world from a different perspective. All the beauty we do not see they capture for us. A few months ago, Marissa helped me discover my own beauty that I felt never existed. As a photographer and an artist Marissa has this magical ability to capture your most beautiful parts of yourself and the environment that surrounds you. She took the time to listen to all my thoughts and ideas that were floating around in my head and somehow, she was able to assemble all the pieces and created a beautiful backdrop near a river in the middle of nature. It was as if she could see the photoshoot in her own mind before I even stepped in front of the camera. She made my dream come to life. I will never see myself in the same light. After our photoshoot I discovered a new self-love that was never there before, and I owe her so much. Marissa is a woman that holds so much talent, imagination, creativity and artistry. I am so glad that I entrusted her with my vision, thank you Marissa for sharing your beautiful talent with the world.

ELYSE
I recently did a boudoir photo shoot with friends with Marissa Jay. When I was young, my best friend’s mom had gorgeous prints of herself, from pre-baby years, framed and hanging in one portion of her house and I decided back then that I would do the same. It was so fun to see a younger version of my friend’s mom expressing her beauty, femininity and overall self. I loved expressing myself in front of the camera and in the safe space with Marissa. She helped me with poses, provided music and an overall light, uplifting and empowering experience.

Marissa is amazing at what she does. Her photography is her passion and that labor of love really shows through in the work.
I've done a natural boudoir photoshoot in the forest with Marissa and those are a lot of fun! Feeling sexy and free surrounded by nature was intoxicating. Marissa makes you feel and look like a goddess. Her photographs will be something I'll cherish forever.
Not only is she professional and talented, but she's just fun to be around too! I felt completely at ease and sexy and empowered during my boudoir session. It was so much fun and I couldn't recommend the experience or Marissa enough!

Marissa has a gift for bringing out each individual, couple or family authentically through her photos. I did a nature boudoir shoot with friends (which was a first for me!) and she created an experience that was comfortable and empowering at the same time. She takes time to understand your vision, offers helpful suggestions (outfits, poses, etc.) and brings such positive energy to her shoots that you can’t help but have fun!

RACHEL
Q: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A PHOTOGRAPHER?
A: Pretty much my entire life! Photography made a huge impact on me as a child, and I always wanted to be a photographer when I grew up. In the last 12+ years, I have photographed elopements, weddings, births, branding, families and personal branding for small businesses - but my heart and passion lie with boudoir!
Q: WHY DO YOU ONLY offer BOUDOIR experiences?
A: I am so passionate about boudoir because I have repeatedly see firsthand the impact it makes on a woman's self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-love. The inner transformation is what I am here for! I LOVE witnessing a woman who has forgotten that she is divinity in motion wake up and realize that she is, in fact, a goddess! For me, boudoir is not just about being sexy . It is about fully embracing your body and who you are as a woman, giving yourself permission to be unapologetically yourself, and becoming empowered in your skin!
Q: I'VE BOOKED MY DAY & TIME...NOW WHAT?
A: Now you can get excited and start preparing for your boudoir session! I send out emails prior to your photo shoot, but here are some tips on how to best prepare:
* Choose outfits and lingerie that fit and flatter your body shape, as well as ones that you feel confident and beautiful in! Your photos will be impacted by this if they are ill-fitting and you feel uncomfortable while wearing them.
* Do not get a spray tan within 2 weeks of your session. I will not edit your photos to correct the weirdness this causes, and I doubt you'll be happy with them.
* Do not starve yourself prior to your shoot in order to lose those last few pounds. Nourish and love your body with food because your body deserves it!
* Do get great sleep, hydrate lots - it'll help your skin glow!
* Do focus on all the things you love about yourself. This is, after all, one of the biggest ways you can show yourself some love!
Q: I WANT TO DO A BOUDOIR SESSION BUT I FEEL NERVOUS & SCARED!
A: You might be feeling nervous and a bit anxious before your session and that's totally normal! Lucky for you, one of my gifts is making women feel extremely comfortable, relaxed, and holding space for them as they navigate stepping outside their comfort zones to embrace and embody their sexy, badass empowered selves.
The best part about being brave and stepping outside your comfort zone will not only be the reward of amazingly beautiful boudoir photos of yourself, but also an increased confidence that YES! You are a rockstar and can do hard things!
Q: DO I HAVE TO WEAR LINGERIE??
A: Wear what you feel best in! This can be an oversized sweater, a favorite t-shirt, your partner's button-down shirt, or a delicate lacy lingerie. It's up to you! In your pre-session consultation call, we will discuss ideas for what you might like to wear that matches your vision for yourself.
Q: I don't know how to be "sexy"! should I still book a session?
A: YES! And don't worry about you making yourself look "sexy" - my job is to make you feel comfortable and loving being with yourself while guiding you through various poses. This is where magic happens, and your photos turn out to be the most sexy-licious (pretty sure that's a word :P).
Q: Do you offer payment plans?
A: Yes, I do! I offer a pre payment plan customized to you and your order. Payment plans can be scheduled up to 3 months. For payment plans created at the ordering session, there will be a 10% payment plan fee added.
Please note, I will not be able to send your order to print until the payment is made in full. Please take this into consideration when purchasing gifts to be printed for loved ones.
Q: How do I book you for my boudoir experience?
A: Love that question the most! To book me for your special day, simply let me know what day and time you're thinking for your session and pay a small non-refundable retainer of $500 to hold your spot!
Boom, it's that easy!
