You're in the right place...
You've been telling yourself I'll do it "When I lose the weight." "When I feel ready." "When I'm more confident." My beautiful friend, you’ve got a body to start loving and a photoshoot is the perfect place to start.
"But what do I do with my hands?" "How do I pull a face that’s sultry (not scary)?" "And where can I find a studio where I'll forget I'm in my lingerie because I'm actually having SO. MUCH. FUN!?"
Every single woman who has walked through our doors felt the exact same way. And every single one left saying the same thing:
"I wish I'd done this sooner."
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU SAY
yes
"I'm not photogenic"
"I'm obsessed with my photos!"
"I don't have the body for this"

what our clients say:
Nat
“This has been such a meaningful and empowering experience”
I went in feeling nervous, excited and overwhelmed but from the very start I was made to feel safe, comfortable, and celebrated. I was blown away by the images - they captured a version of me I’ve struggled to see and I would recommend this if you’ve ever doubted your own worth or beauty... it truly is life-changing.
Elena
“I felt like the most gorgeous thing on the planet, inside and out. ”
I needed something to help me reclaim my body and see myself as I really am after weight loss surgery. From booking to post shoot my experience with the ladies at Intimately You Boudoir Photography has been nothing short of amazing.
Tayla
“They definitely know how to make you feel like a goddess!”
As a plus-size woman and 4 months post-partum, I had no idea what to expect, how to feel or what to do. The team made me feel right at home and extremely comfortable! The whole experience was amazing! Will definitely do this again.

Frequently asked questions
Is a boudoir photoshoot really for me? I'm nervous and shy.
That's exactly who we love to work with. We guide every pose, so you don't need any experience. It's our job to guide you to look natural and beautiful.
what if I don't look as good as the women on your website?
Most women share this concern, and there's nothing to worry about. You choose the photos you love, and if you truly don't love any, you're covered by our money-back guarantee.
Where is your boudoir studio located?
Our photoshoots are held in our private commercial studio in Brookvale, on the Northern Beaches in Sydney, styled like a Parisian apartment. Clients travel to us from across Sydney and NSW.
How much does a boudoir photoshoot cost in Sydney?
Artwork options begin at $950 for wall art and $2200 for albums, and most clients invest $3000 to $6000 or more on their final purchase. Full pricing is shared on your consult call before you book, and our in-house payment plans are a client favourite.
Will my boudoir photos be kept private?
Absolutely. Your images are never shared without your permission and a signed model release. There's no pressure from us to share, and we can even sign an NDA if you want complete privacy.
What happens at a boudoir session?
Your photoshoot is a full day just for you. It starts with professional hair and makeup by our in-house artists, then a fully guided 1.5 hour photoshoot with 3 to 4 looks, where we direct every pose and expression. After a lunch break, you'll return for your same-day reveal to view your photos and choose the images you love. Your album or wall art is delivered to your door around 6 to 8 weeks later.
How do I know that I will feel comfortable and confident?
More than 750 women have trusted us with their sessions, and we have over 175 five-star Google reviews. You can read their words on Google or see their stories on our Instagram.
What should I wear to a boudoir photoshoot?
Whatever makes you feel incredible. Your session includes 3 to 4 outfits, and lingerie is the classic choice, though anything from an oversized shirt to a gown works beautifully. Once you book we'll send you our styling tips and lingerie guide, so you'll walk in knowing exactly what to bring.
Who will photograph my boudoir session?
Hayley, the studio owner, personally photographs every session, supported by an all-female team.
How many final images do I get?
We have packages and options to suit every client. Most clients choose between 40 and 60 final images.
Do you photograph bridal boudoir?
Yes, I'm a bridal boudoir specialist. Brides book with us to create a wedding gift for their partner, and just as often to celebrate themselves. The ideal time for your shoot is 3 to 6 or more months before your wedding. Sessions are held at our Brookvale studio on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
