CELEBRATE YOUR BODY. EXACTLY AS IT IS.
Whatever your reason, my boudoir experience exists to make you feel safe, sexy, empowered, and appreciated.
book your boudoir experience
When I first started offering boudoir, I assumed that most of my clients wanted sexy photos for their partner. It didn’t take long for me to see that boudoir is so much more than that. Done with intention and care, boudoir can be an incredibly empowering, healing, and life-changing experience that is just for you.
Over the years, I’ve crafted a boudoir offer that
is private, tailored to your comfort, and fun. I
wouldn’t have it any other way.
BOUDOIR TAILORED TO FIT YOU - NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
There are many reasons you may feel drawn to a boudoir session. I’ve worked with women who are finding themselves after feeling lost in motherhood. I’ve captured folks who have experienced trauma in their bodies, and are eager to feel sexy again in a safe environment. I’ve helped women surprise their partners with photos that showcase a sensuality they feel ready to explore. Sometimes there are deep, vulnerable reasons behind a boudoir session - and sometimes, it’s just a girly, fun, playground to feel beautiful. It can be both, but it’s always for you.
Uncover your confidence, and witness the powerful beauty that’s always been within.
I host “boudoir” weekends in cities around Atlantic Canada through the fall and winter months. I post my boudoir weekend locations and availability on Instagram - but you can also inquire with me about saving a spot for your city in advance. I typically host Saturday and Sunday sessions in Moncton, Saint John, Fredericton, and Halifax.
To prep for your session, all you need to do is pick out what you’d like to wear (or not wear, haha)! Many clients choose their favourite lingerie, an oversized dress shirt, or loungewear - but I recommend wearing whatever you feel good in. We can also make boudoir magic happen with a white bed sheet, complete nudity, or baggy jeans and bralette!
Booking and preparing for your boudoir session
Lots of women feel nervous before their boudoir session - but I promise those nerves will fade as soon as you walk through the door of our event space. It’ll just be you, me, and my makeup artist. We have a full hour to hang out as you get “glam” before my camera even comes out. This allows us time to connect, share stories, and get comfortable together - which makes your session even more enjoyable. This privacy and relaxed timeline also helps to ensure that you’re never going to run into someone you may know at your session: keeping your choice to celebrate yourself and your body, yours and yours alone.
Your safety, comfort, and enjoyment is my golden rule.
My boudoir shooting style involves lots of compliments, gentle posing suggestions to help you get into positions that will accentuate your beautiful curves, and the intuition to be more “hands-off” if I see you are in the groove, doin’ your thing! We’ll utilize the space - switching up positions and outfit options.
Once your shoot is over, you can expect to receive your full gallery in about 6 weeks. I always keep your choice to book boudoir with me confidential, and will not share photos online or include them in my portfolio unless you explicitly state it’s okay (with a written contract).
See yourself in a new light.

“As a forty-one-year old mother of two, I was far from believing that I had a picture-perfect body, but I decided to come out of my comfort zone and do a boudoir session anyway. Sharlie and her glam team made me feel like we had known each other for ages. Ten minutes with them and I forgot all about my insecurities. They made me feel like I was the most beautiful person. All through the photo shoot Sharlie treats you with the utmost respect, makes you feel so good about yourself, and goes out of her way to capture the little details. I went in there with low self-esteem and very little confidence, but came out glowing. I strongly urge every lady out there to go for a boudoir session with Sharlie, it will positively change the image you have of yourself. Thank you so much to Sharlie and her glam girls: you have changed my life forever.”
Here’s what Sandy has to say about working with me:
“I met Sharlie when I had my first Boudoir session. This was on my bucket list, and I kept putting it off for when I would “lose that weight”... or look a certain way. I finally said “screw it” and decided to do the session. I did my research for photographers in the province, finding that perfect photographer that I’d be comfortable with. What an amazing decision I made. I can’t say enough of what this session did for me and my body confidence. I left feeling like a whole new woman, with whole new outlook on myself and my body. I plan to do another boudoir session with her, because I think this is the type of session a woman should book for herself over and over again, to forever accept herself. Sharlie is carefree and fun loving and makes it not only a photoshoot but a whole experience.”
Here’s what Jana has to say about working with me:
“I booked my first ever boudoir experience with Sharlie after finding out that I was expecting my first baby. Women experience so much pressure to be a certain size or shape, and I had struggled a lot in my early twenties with my body image. Before becoming pregnant, I had finally accepted my body for what it looked like and all it does for me. As I witnessed my belly grow over the weeks, I knew I would look back in my post-partum season and appreciate taking the time to celebrate all the changes. Sharlie and her makeup artist Amy made me feel like the most beautiful mama-to-be, and I’ll cherish my photos forever.”
Here’s what Madeline has to say about working with me:
Celebrating and documenting the powerful beauty of womanhood one boudoir session at time.

Of course. All of my boudoir clients sign a privacy contract at the time of their session that states what I’m allowed to do with their photos. Sharing or not sharing your photos is a decision that is 100% yours, and one I will always respect.
We love a nudie moment! I am comfortable with you being completely nude if you are. Should you plan to go nude, I recommend bringing a robe or cover-up for the “in-between” moments and during your hair and makeup application.
Absolutely. I love working with heterosexual or LGBTQIA+ couples who are interested in celebrating the intimacy of their relationship through photos. If you are interested in bringing your partner, please ensure you let me know at the time of your inquiry and booking.
All of my boudoir packages include the opportunity to have your hair and makeup professionally done. I work with talented artists who will ensure you always feel and look like yourself. You can go as natural or as as glam as you like - and if you really don’t want to wear makeup, we can use the time to make a tea and hang out instead.
