What your shoot will look like in my studio:
I understand how booking a boudoir session can be incredibly intimidating! You're committing to being partially naked and vulnerable in front of a total stranger! (Unless you worked with me before, in which case hi again, I love you and thank you for coming back!!!! I can't wait to make magic with you again!) I want to ease some of your fears and nerves in this! I'm 100% confident you will have fun with me in this. You DO NOT need to be a model or have any idea about posing to do this!
I will guide you through everything (beginning with providing a Welcome Guide of expectations and tips the day you book so you can start preparing) It can be scary but I will hold your hand the entire way and make sure you have a positive and fun experience! My clients choose me because this session is more than just an hour and a half session. This is a life changing experience and a healing process that helps build confidence! I tailor the experience to you and what you need to show that you are beautiful, as you are, in this moment NOW.
The Welcome Guide (received after booking) also includes wardrobe tips and styling points. I am also here to answer any questions and specifically help you with every step of the day. On the day of the shoot, you will show up to the studio with your outfit pieces (or take a look through the client closet) and I'll help with everything from styling, posing, prop handling and show you the images as we take them to ensure you're in love with what you're capturing.
I also handle special prints and products such as albums, folio boxes, and canvas prints. Have any questions? Shoot me an email and I'm happy to answer anything you have!

Boudoir by Black Gem = beautiful photos + a healing side effect!
Boudoir is commonly done as an AMAZING gift for a partner. Imagine the look on their face when they receive a little black leather album filled with saucy photos of their favorite person. They think you're beautiful when you're lounging around in sweats, just imagine how they'll see you in glam makeup and classy lingerie!
I won't explain to you your "why". Only you know why you are doing this but I will tell you some amazing side effects:
I won't explain to you your "why". Only you know why you are doing this but I will tell you some amazing side effects:
- Helps you celebrate your body AS YOU ARE, not 15 pounds less or with some cosmetic procedure. You are gorgeous as you are and I will show you that.
- You unlock a version of yourself you don't see a lot (or ever for some) and she is FIERCE and SEXY
- You get gorgeous portraits of yourself!
- That feeling of confidence and a new sense of freedom as you leave your comfort zone will stick with you for a LONG time
- You can get a little black book of your nudes and put it on your coffee table (or an ass print on the wall??) and that's probably the greatest power move of all time.
- YOU DESERVE TO BE PAMPERED AND UP YOUR CONFIDENCE.

I offer two types of sessions: Basic Boudoir and Luxury Boudoir. Both session types include the studio, client closet access and in person reveal of edited images on the same day of the session.
Basic Boudoir includes 2 outfits, a one hour session and in person reveal of the session during the same day. the timeline is typically 11am-2:30pm (Session starts at 11am, we take a lunch break at 12, and then you come back to the studio at 2pm for the in person reveal of the images)
Luxury Boudoir includes hair and makeup, 3 outfits, a 90 minute session with the in person reveal. The timeline is typically 9am- 2:30 pm (Session starts at 9am with hair and makeup, photos begin at 11, we take a lunch break at 12, and you come back to the studio at 2pm for the in-person reveal of the images.)

Reviews:
"Kieran is spectacular! She is so sweet! It's clear she cares a lot about her clients, how they're feeling during, & even after the photoshoot. The best hype woman & friend all in one. There wasn't one moment I felt uncomfortable or unheard. It's hard to not get along with her. I've felt like I've known her forever just in my first time meeting her. She has an awesome sense of creativity & lots of passion in her work that creates a very fun, confidence boosting experience! She has a crystal clear vision for what we want out of our shoot & does an amazing job executing that! She responds almost immediately, is very hands on with brainstorming for ideas, and has inspiration poses ready to show for guidance. Her studio is beautiful & very welcoming. She just has the best vibes in the whole place. Her experience as a model and photographer help immensely during the shoot. She understands all there is to be known to assist for the best outcomes. Including her cute pup I got to meet upon visit. Turn around time was very quick even with her being in her busiest season of the year, she provides a large quantity of images in return & the photos are phenomenal! Book with her & thank me later! 🖤😍🙌🏼" -Callie

"Kieran is amazing, she really made me feel beautiful and was able to really capture what we set out to do. I was feeling rough after having my last baby and not very sexy or beautiful, and she honored that and still went above an beyond. She is worth every penny" -Payton
"SHE IS SO TALENTED!! There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo turned out that Kieran took! She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and expressions. I felt so comfortable and confident with her!
