Ready to start planning your session?
Boudoir is not about transformation; it’s about revelation. A moment to see yourself fully, without expectation, in a light that tells the truth: you are beautiful, powerful and perfect exactly as you are.
My approach is film-inspired and natural, capturing quiet confidence, soft light and effortless beauty. Each session is a curated experience, featuring professional hair and makeup, a stunning Chicago setting, and a gentle guidance to help you settle in.
This isn’t just a photoshoot. It’s a love letter to yourself.

Named one of the Best Boudoir Photographers in Chicago
Recognized as one of Chicago’s top boudoir photographers, I’ve had the honor of working with hundreds of women who wanted to see themselves with fresh eyes.
In a world that often encourages self-criticism, I find this work meaningful because it creates space to pause, honor who we are, and celebrate the beauty already within us. My hope is that you’ll walk away not only with photographs you love, but with a deeper sense of confidence that stays with you long after our time together.

Your final gallery will capture not only how you look, but how you felt: radiant, strong, and deeply yourself.
Sessions take place in Chicago hotel suites or studios with natural light and stylish interiors, chosen to feel comfortable and inviting.
I’ll offer direction throughout, ensuring you feel comfortable, confident, and naturally at ease.
Together we’ll shape the vision, from wardrobe to styling, so every detail feels true to you.
What to Expect

Because the right space makes all the difference.
Every boudoir session includes a Signature Setting — beautiful spaces like The Ambassador Hotel and other boutique suites I’ve chosen for their natural light, inviting style, and relaxed atmosphere. These settings are designed to feel warm and comfortable, so you can be fully yourself in front of the camera.
If you’d like to make your experience even more special, there are also Exclusive Upgrades at some of Chicago’s most iconic hotels. Picture Soho House, The Langham, Nobu, or the Four Seasons — or another space that feels uniquely you. These suites bring stunning interiors and sweeping views that add an unforgettable touch of indulgence to your session.

"This experience and these photos did what I was hoping they would do—they held up a mirror so I could see myself as I really am: as a beautiful person who contains multitudes, whose body tells my story and deserves to be loved in all its forms."
"Ashley has such a gift. She’s an incredibly skilled photographer, and her warm and welcoming personality made the experience unforgettable. She eased all of my nerves, answered every question, and offered helpful advice from wardrobe to posing so I always felt supported."
"I wouldn't have trusted anyone else with both my wedding and my boudoir experience. In two totally different settings, she made me feel seen and celebrated, and I was filled with joy seeing these photos for the first time."
"There are critiques and comments that have lingered with me about my body since adolescence. This experience did what I was hoping it would—it held up a mirror so I could see myself as I really am, a beautiful person whose body tells my story and deserves to be loved in all its forms."
"Postpartum, I look at the photos and feel like a goddess whose body has super-powers. I grew a human life, nursed for 15 months, and now I wear every stretch mark like a badge of honor. I’m grateful to have these photos to look back on and remind myself of that feeling."
"I’d rate my boudoir experience 10000/10—truly the most amazing and welcoming day. I have never felt more beautiful, you captured everything perfectly, and while my husband is going to love the gift, it was truly more for me. I cannot stop looking at these pictures and will cherish them for the rest of my life."
