Something I`ve heard from a few people lately:
"I`m interested, but I`m really nervous."
And listen, I`d be more surprised if you weren`t.
Most clients walk through the studio door nervous.
That`s completely normal.

It`s been one whole year since coming to the new studio (peep the selfie from my first session here), and it still feels a bit like a pinch me moment when I come in. Sometimes it`s crazy to reflect on a years growth because it`s a lot of time while simultaneously being no time at all.
I generally am someone who will do things on a whim with the belief it`ll work out, and deciding to take a chance by saying yes has continued to still be a pretty rad decision.
Thanks for being here. 💕

A common misconception about boudoir?
That you need to know what you`re doing. You don`t.
In fact, most people have never done anything like this before.
That`s literally why I`m there.

It`s been a while since I`ve done this and there`s lots of new, beautiful faces. So, hey. I`m Arielle, your personal hype girl and I`m so happy you`re here!
Let`s get down to some fun facts:
-I`ve been shooting for around 10 years in commercial, weddings, and lifestyle. Ya girl loves boudoir though.
-I also own a marketing agency and specialize in web design.
- I shoot in my bra and underwear so you aren`t the only one half naked during your session.
- I`m five years sober, crazy!
- I`m slightly (a lot) obsessed with my cats, a good book, and bubble baths.
-I collect PEZ containers.
- I`ve hiked around 50 places solo around Michigan.
-I`m severely ADHD and type B, I will misplace things minimum 100 times during a session.
- I`m beyond thankful for every client who trusts me with this experience.
- My print supplier is 100% women ran and owned, and all their products are handmade.
