"Let me start out by saying Amanda made me feel so comfortable! As a plus size woman, who hates her body, it took me a long time to decide to even do this shoot. But scrolling through Instagram of other plus size women who loved their bodys and showed so much confidence, they was very inspiring. I told myself if they can love their bodies I need to try. So I decided to do the most extreme thing.... boudoir! And I'm so happy I did. My photos showed me I am beautiful. I now love myself and have a lot more confidence. My husband was very happy with his birthday present as well!"

"I'm going to be honest, I was nervous and excited about this photo shoot. I originally was doing it as a gift for my husband but it turned out to mean so much more to me. I have never thought of myself as overly beautiful, just more of a plain Jane type, but this experience really made me see myself how my husband sees me everyday... Beautiful! So ladies if you have been back and forth on doing this type of photo shoot, I say be bold and do it for you!"

"Being a bigger girl, you aren't hardly viewed as being sexy. Amanda was so encouraging and sincerely made me feel so sexy and beautiful. I had so much fun and she did such an amazing job making me feel comfortable in my own skin. I can't thank you enough for such an amazing experience. 1000/10 recommend!"

"I was very hesitant on doing this photoshoot. I've always been the bigger girl growing up and I have never felt like I could pull off doing this type of thing, but let me tell you. I am SOO glad that I did. Amanda made me feel amazingly beautiful and like I could conquer the world. She helped me pose in positions that hid my flaws. If anyone is hesitant about doing one of these. I promise you that you won't regret it."

“I’ve never been one to feel beautiful about myself. Even at my “smallest” I still had some severe self-esteem issues. This was BEYOND out of my comfort zone, but Amanda made the session so comfortable and relaxed. I was comfortable in my own skin, in minimal clothing, in front of a camera. It was a very casual, comfortable, session! I felt no pressure to be “sexy” or know what I was doing. We laughed, and I was able to relax enough to get some GORGEOUS pictures that made me feel so beautiful. When she showed me the pictures I said “IS THAT REALLY ME?!” I will cherish these, forever! I highly recommend booking with Amanda! Affordable, professional, and VERY gorgeous work. You can’t go wrong with any of those. You WILL NOT regret it.”
"Although I didn’t necessarily plan this photoshoot because my sisters had surprised planned it for me, I’m so glad I did it. I’ve always been very self-conscious of myself especially my body. Looking at these pictures I’m more confident than ever and I can’t stop looking at them. I’m so glad I got the chance to do this. I totally see myself in a different way. Amanda was great at telling me what to do and how to pose. I absolutely love her!"

"Ok, so here goes. I have been majorly uncomfortable with my body since having kids. Never really was small small, but I had a flat stomach and more confidence. My husband tells me all the time that I'm beautiful but it's different hearing it and not feeling it. So I took a shot and did a session and let me tell you that when I saw the photos Amanda took of me, I CRIED, not because I didn't like them, but because they were so good and I look beautiful in them. I got to see what my husband saw for once and felt beautiful from the whole experience. Amanda does a wonderful job making you feel comfortable and talks you through poses and also just talks to get your mind off the shoot so you just have fun. I recommend her and doing a boudoir session 100%! You are going to feel beautiful, sexy, and confident, no matter your body type."

"For the past 10 years I've wanted to have boudoir pictures done but I've always been very self conscious of my body after a spinal cord injury. When the opportunity came this time I thought, you know what I want to feel beautiful again! And I'm glad I didn't let my insecurities get in my way. Amanda was very professional and fun! I never felt shy or uncomfortable, she helped explain poses and was always going for that perfect shot. I loved working with her and can't wait to book my next session."
- Ms. R
"Let’s just say this was the best experience I’ve ever had. Amanda is an amazing human and so kind when it came to breaking out of my comfort zone and just letting loose. I’ve struggled with my body since I was little. I always let people tell me what was okay to look like and what was not. I got married at a young age and that did not help things at all. Just very toxic and so I kind of let myself go and just didn’t care anymore.. I let my anxiety and depression get the best of me which was something I said I would never do. I’ve always loved the concept of Boudoir shoots. I think women who do them are the bravest souls. I was so nervous coming into this but Amanda helped me relax so much. I left the shoot feeling 100x better about myself and how I view the world. Definitely something I will do again!"
- Ms. H
"I had always thought about doing a session but lacked the self esteem to go through with it. I finally bit the bullet and made the appointment. Amanda and her ladies were like going to a sexy sleepover; talking, laughing, having a good time with music and wine. I had the gastric sleeve done 4 years ago which left me with basically a deflated body. I hated my body and even after surgery wasn't crazy about it. I am proud of my weight loss but still not comfortable in my skin. Amanda made me feel comfortable and sexy. My pictures prove it. Don't hesitate! Book an appointment! It's worth every penny!"
- Mrs. G
"I have always been so self conscious being a bigger women but Amanda made me feel so comfortable the moment I got there. She also kind of showed me it's ok to be nervous but you definitely get to feel comfortable as you go. She really made my self esteem boost by what an amazing job she did on my photos. I would definitely recommend doing a shoot if you never have."
- Mrs. P
"I loved that I had choices to pick for my shoot! Amanda made me smile and feel great before, during, and after our session together! She was amazing. I would definitely recommend letting her take intimate photos, you can look back on. I still look back at my photos that’s she has taken months ago!"

"I had Gastric Bypass surgery January 2020. I was at my heaviest weight of 479 pounds. There was so much I couldn't do anymore, especially with my son. After having surgery, I have had many ups and downs. It hasn't been an easy journey but I'd do it all over again if given the opportunity. As of June 2021 I have lost a total of 269 pounds. I have always been very insecure of my body and was even bullied growing up because I was "bigger". Although I look like a completely different person now, those insecurities still exist, sometimes even more so now than before. I know, I've lost a lot of weight, but with that comes extra skin and there are times I still look in a mirror and feel like I'm huge. I went from a 4/5X shirts and 26/28 pants to L/XL shirts and 14/16 pants. I was very nervous about doing a boudoir shoot. I've always wanted to but never thought I had the body for it and even after my weightloss, I still didn't think I did. I went into this nervous and scared the pictures wouldn't look right. Amanda and Brittany made my shoot an absolute blast. I had more confidence than I thought and I was so much more comfortable than I imagined. If you're on the fence, just do it. I plan to do this again post skin removal but this shoot has done nothing but boost my confidence even more. Thank you so much for this opportunity Amanda. Just remember, we are our own worst critic and you don't have to do this shoot for anyone but yourself and it's okay to feel awkward because that feeling is only temporary. Shine Like A Diamond And Embrace Your Body. You Are A Queen!"

"To say I was nervous was an understatement. I was literally shaking when I first walked in. I was completely out of my comfort zone. I had never felt like a confident or sexy woman, BUT Amanda was very professional and encouraging. She was so easy to talk to and made me feel more comfortable. She helped build my confidence so much. By the end of the our session, I felt like a model. I am so glad I didn't get too nervous and back out. I think my photos turned out amazing! It was a wonderful experience!"

“Take the picture, your as young and beautiful today as you’ll ever be. At first I said why, but then decided, why not? I wanted memories to look back on in 30 years when I won’t want to be photographed and Amanda did just that! She captured me, flaws and all and made me feel absolutely beautiful. I had never met her before the day of my session, but you wouldn’t have ever guessed that! Everything about the photo session was perfect, she made me feel comfortable and beautiful in my own body! So if your asking yourself if boudoir is for you and your not sure if it’ll be worth it, I can promise you it is and you won’t regret it! Thank you again Amanda for the wonderful memories that I’ll cherish for a lifetime.”

"Hello ladies, I chose to do boudoir pics to redecorate my bedroom after a relationship of three years gone wrong, to rebuild my self esteem. I chose Amanda after seeing her work from the birth of my grandbaby. Amanda chose a beautiful setting and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. We had a lot of laughs that day. I am extremely happy with the results and my bedroom decor is amazing."
- Mrs. J
"I have been interested in doing boudoir shoot for a long time. When I saw that Amanda was doing them, I got excited because I knew I would be comfortable with her. I have always been extremely self conscious about my body because I've always been plus size. I lost a bunch of weight, had a baby and gained more weight back once I had my daughter. With the different postpartum body, weight gain, along with PPA and PPD and other health problems, I was really struggling to be myself again. I am finally on the right path, lost "some" weight and feel overall better about myself, so why not take the plunge and do a shoot. When I tell you, I had so much fun, that is literally an understatement. I am an awkward person in general and Amanda made me feel absolutely amazing and honestly really beautiful. If anyone is hesitant about doing a shoot, definitely schedule with Amanda! It doesnt have to be for anyone but just a special treat for yourself, you wont regret it."

I thought I was doing this shoot for my husband but after seeing the photos of myself I realized how much I needed them for my self confidence!! When I had my daughter my body changed, and although it’s been 2.5 years and I wouldn’t trade my daughter for anything I’m still not used to this mom-bod.
So many times we become so focused on “mommin’” that we kind of forget who we were before we become mommy. That’s the case for me, and before today I hadn’t worn sexy lingerie since before she was born.
Take the time for yourself and get boudoir photos done! Amanda is so professional and makes you extremely comfortable the whole time, and I PROMISE you will be glad that you did it. There aren’t enough words to describe how thankful I am that she made me see myself as more than a mom today....a beautiful, fierce, SEXY woman who happens to have brought a beautiful baby girl into this world!!"

“I am a married 39 year old woman and the mother of 4 teenagers. I had been thinking of doing a boudoir shoot for years. I always thought I would wait until I was more fit or prettier. I was invited to Amanda’s group by another member, and I was able to see these amazing photos of not only the member who invited me, but all these other gorgeous women who were in all shapes and sizes. I thought…I want to see myself like that! My husband has always told me I was beautiful no matter what size I’ve been, and our anniversary is coming up. I made my appointment with Amanda and bought some outfits for the shoot. I was a bit intimidated, but Amanda and my friend guided me deftly on poses, expressions, and angles. Amanda got my best sides! The finished photos were amazing, and I had them rendered into a book as an anniversary gift for my husband. He is thrilled with all the photos and definitely has some favorite shots! I felt desirable and very comfortable in my skin, and even more so, she captured my confidence as well as beauty I hadn’t seen in a while. I am likely to do this again! Thank you!”

"I have always struggled with my self esteem and confidence, but after having three babies I felt even worse. I didn’t see myself as pretty or beautiful even though my husband would tell me I was everyday. One of my friends suggested I get boudoir pictures done and I thought “no way! That would make me way too uncomfortable.” I finally got the courage to give it a try and let me tell you, I feel way better about myself and actually seen myself as beautiful. I loved that Amanda made me feel beautiful and gave me confidence as well as made the shoot fun. If you are thinking about it, do it! You’ll feel way better and you will have such a fun time with Amanda. She is so nice and caring. And does whatever you are comfortable with. 100/10 recommend ACD!!!!!"

"I'm going to be 100% real with you, I had 0% self-confidence, self love, so many insecurities. Let's face it, I'm a big girl. I have more rolls than the Pillsbury dough boy (and yes I giggle when poked)! So my first shoot I started modest, like sweater and boy short underwear modest. But after that shoot, Amanda got me hyped. She was so easy to relax around, she boosted my confidence, and showed me no matter your body type, on the other side of that lens is how the world sees you. And it was gorgeous, I was like damn is that me?!? Amanda is an absolute beautiful soul, and pours her entire heart into providing amazing pictures at your own comfort level. I love the work she does and how friendly and comforting she is no matter how awkward you feel."
