First of all, WELCOME!
First, let me say that I am SOO excited that you have taken a very big step towards booking a boudoir shoot with me- inquiring! Literally 90% of the women I speak with about boudoir light up, and immediately say that they want to do it! But- I don't always have the chance to work with them right away because they never actually take that very important first step. Well lovely, YOU are in for a treat!! I like to think of it as an extended spa day – but better! A boudoir session is better because you get to take home images that remind you everyday of how amazing you truly are! Overall I want to create images that you would be proud to blow up & hang on your bedroom wall.
We believe that every woman is uniquely beautiful and should celebrate who she is, as she is, right now.
Hello!
My name is Candace, I am the owner of Candace Gurley Photography. I have been specializing in boudoir portraits for 8 years, this genre is the only one I shoot 365 days a year. Boudoir is so special to me because I love helping women feel confident, empowered, and truly beautiful—exactly as they are. My goal isn’t just to capture stunning images; it’s to change the way you see yourself. I want you to look in the mirror every day and love the woman staring back at you.
We all struggle with self-image, but I make it my mission to help women embrace and celebrate their bodies. Almost every woman who steps into my studio feels self-conscious at first, but by the time we’re done, she sees herself in a whole new light—strong, sensual, and undeniably beautiful.
You may be thinking of gifting these images to your spouse or a loved one, but more than anything, this is a gift for
you
. You are worthy of feeling special, confident, and radiant. Boudoir is an empowering experience that reveals so much more than just your outer beauty—it reminds you of the incredible woman you are.
I promise, you won’t regret giving yourself this gift of confidence and self-love. You deserve it.
Candace Gurley
“The entire experience was really life changing. I arrived that morning feeling like the number on my scale was going to determine how my pictures turned out. I left there an hour later and felt like a goddess. I felt free. The session made realize that I’m still sexy. I’ve still got a fierce lioness living inside me. The experience ended up being more of a gift for my wellbeing, my self worth, than it was a gift for my husband.” -Mrs. B”

WHAT EXACTLY IS BOUDOIR?
To most people, boudoir means sexy, seductive photos of women in lingerie, or little to no clothing. The truth is, boudoir is a celebration of sensual beauty, which is hugely different for each woman on a personal level. I will talk with you about what makes YOU feel beautiful, and I'll customize your experience to bring that out in your photos. To some women, that WILL mean lingerie, but to others, it will mean knee high socks, bikini panties, and a tank top, and that's TOTALLY ok! So the answer is, boudoir is YOU, in your most beautiful state of mind and body. IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY JOINED OUR PRIVATE VIP GROUP ON FACEBOOK, I HIGHLY SUGGEST THAT YOU DO!
FAQ
-
DON'T BE! Every image that you've seen of mine has been posed and directed by me! I tell you exactly where to put your hands, when to look at the camera, when to breathe and show you how to arch. If you can follow simple directions, you CAN do this. I show you along the way so you don't feel "silly" in the poses and I promise to be your biggest hype girl, xoxo
-
Yes, you absolutely should! None of the women on my site are models, they are all real women who wanted pictures just like you. They all come in with their own set of flaws and insecurities. They have had hair and make-up done, great lighting and posing. I will show you the beautiful sides of yourself and capture it in gorgeous pictures for you to cherish long after our session. I am happy not all my clients look the same. I love how we are all beautiful in our own way!
-
That's the fun and exciting and SCARY part for some...but don't worry! I have a HUGE client closet filled with over 250 pieces from sizes XS-4X. I'll pull some pieces for you to try on the day based off your questionnaire. You'll also get a complete Lingerie Guide that'll help you shop locally and online if you'd like to bring your own pieces with you! We shoot anywhere from 3-4 lingerie pieces and then the white sheets at the end if you'd like! *more info below
Picture this: Your favorite leather jacket with a bra underneath or a cozy sweater showing off lacy undies. Your session should reflect YOU — including what makes you feel amazing and confident.
-
Absolutely NOT! I'd never want you to do something you don't want to do. This is why I'll send over a questionnaire once you book in to get to know you and what you're comfortable with during your session. If at any time you'd like to change your mind and do white sheets (where you are naked and the sheet is covering you) or fully nude, tasteful shots, that is 100% your decision.
-
For the CGP Body Love Campaign, a full model release is required.
All body love participants are required to sign a full release for Candace Gurley Photography with unlimited use of images. The images will be used for marketing/promotional purposes, displayed in both print and digital format at the photographer's discretion.
-
More and more we have clients coming to us that bring jeans and a tank, sweaters, shorts, & dresses. This is your shoot!! You can style it any way you wish.
I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING SEXY TO WEAR. Do you provide outfits?
GIRL, I've got you covered (or actually uncovered lol).
A Boudoir Shoot does not require you to go and buy a whole new closet full of lingerie. For starters I have a fully stocked Lingerie Closet for you to pick from with sizes small-3x. However, Boudoir is not about reinventing yourself or having to wear anything you don't feel comfortable in. While it can be a good excuse to buy some new bras or panties, my favorite way to photograph women is in their favorite everyday outfit.
IMAGINE: Your favorite leather jacket with just a bra underneath. A cozy sweater pulled up to reveal lacy undies. Your photos should reflect exactly who you are, and part of who you are is what you like to wear and feel comfortable in.
Is professional hair & make-up provided?
Yes it is!!
I have a very few select wonderful make-up artists that I schedule for all my shoots. I have noticed that make-up helps to give my clients the confidence they need to shine in their images. When a woman shines, this is where the real beauty shows through. If you feel more comfortable skipping this, that is fine too!
