North Carolina born and bred…I enjoy the smaller things in life and my friends describe me as genuine, passionate, and quirky. I have photographed well over 500 women of all shapes, sizes, and professions inside the walls of our chic vintage boho loft studio. My ultimate goal is to help empower and encourage women to love themselves, just as they are.
Hi! I’m Stacey - Owner & Photographer
So, why boudoir?
I fell in love with intimate portraiture when I first starting shooting it in 2009; so much so that I left behind my day job and prior wedding photography business and founded Simply-Boudoir. That’s right - this has been my full time job (and devotion) for over 12 years!
I loved the more personal connection I have 1 on 1 with clients and showcasing a part of their life journey via photographs all the while maintaining my artistic freedom. I love that every client tells their own unique story about why they desire a boudoir shoot, allowing us to work together and create a customized experience just for them. I am a natural introvert who comes to life inside my studio walls, hyping up everyday women to see their beauty in a sensual yet fun light.

How it works
-
You’ve been thinking about a boudoir session and may be a little nervous; I completely understand! You’re worried you may not know how to pose or even what you’d wear. All of those worries can be put to rest, though - I got you, girl! Let’s chat about your vision for your shoot, down to your favorite colors and what your personal style is. Would you like dark & sultry images, more bright and airy or a mix of both? I want your images to reflect YOU! You can also rest assure that on top of having your hair and makeup done (yep, that’s included as well) that I’ll be guiding you through each and every pose the day of your shoot.
-
Once you pay your session fee, I’ll send over your contract and prep guide, which includes tips and tricks to prep you for your shoot as well as what you can expect the day of. We’ll chat about your wardrobe options and I’ll help you find the perfect pieces you’ll love. On the day of your shoot you’ll be fully pampered with all inclusive hair and makeup by my professional artists, a mimosa or wine if you wish, full posing guidance and LOTS of laughs! I guarantee you’ll walk away feeling amazing and empowered!
-
I retouch your final proofs with magazine quality editing. If there’s anything you’re concerned about, I’ll take care of it for you! Once you view your edited images (1-2 weeks after your shoot), you’ll decide how you’d like to showcase your images (album, digital files, canvases, etc.) and place your order then. Once your beautiful art arrives back to me I’ll get it in your hands for you to revel in every single time you view them.

“I was completely blown away with my experience with Stacey at Simply Boudoir. From booking my shoot to receiving my album, I was extremely impressed with every thing! I was nervous about how it would go, being half naked in from a lady with a camera is a little nerve racking but Stacey made me feel unbelievably comfortable. I've truly never felt better about myself! My boudoir shoot is the most empowering thing I've ever done. I seriously felt like a super model the entire time! I felt like she listened to me and captured the looks I was going for. Stacey was very prompt with everything and she kept to her timeline! Finally, I received my album and USB, WOW! I was completely stunned with the presentation. My album was perfectly wrapped and packaged in a gorgeous box, my USB was perfectly tucked away in a beautiful little box, and she wrote me hand written card. Simply Boudoir is Simply Amazing. 10 stars across the board! I loved everything about it.”

“Stacey was amazing and my photos turned out fabulous! I was a little nervous at first going into it. I always wanted to do a boudoir photoshoot but was worried about feeling negative about myself and my body when looking at the photos. The experience was the EXACT OPPOSITE! I feel better about myself now than I ever did before and it makes me feel fabulous...at 40..with two kids :)”

“I had been wanting to do this for a while for my husband who works on the road. I was a little apprehensive of the whole process of posing in lingerie in front of a stranger, but turns out it was such a fun experience that I do again in a heartbeat! Stacey and her hair/makeup girl made me feel so comfortable and I’ve never felt more beautiful!! It was a fun girls day that I really didn’t want to end. The icing on the cake was James opening his gift- he absolutely loved it! If you are contemplating doing boudoir photos- absolutely do them. You will never feel more beautiful and empowered- and you won’t find a better photographer than Stacey at Simply-Boudoir!”

“My experience while working with Stacey was nothing short of AMAZING! From her hands on help with picking out pieces for the shoot, to the glamorous studio, the pampering I experienced, & her extreme talent and professionalism; nothing fell short. She has a sense of ease that leaves you feeling completely comfortable & trusting in her. Of course my photos were absolutely beautiful & I was blown away! I was so in love with her work that I have chosen to work with her on more than one occasion, each time being just as wonderful as the first! Working with Stacey is one of the best gifts you could give to yourself!”

“Stacey is the BEST boudoir photographer hands down! I researched every boudoir studio I could find in the Triad, Raleigh and Charlotte areas and Simply Boudoir was an easy (and my only) choice. After having a baby I was nervous to do a boudoir shoot, but when I looked at Stacey’s photos on Simply Boudoir I knew I could do it. It was clear that she took time and care with each client to pose appropriately and accentuate everyone’s favorite body parts! It was no different with me! I’m obsessed with my photos and never thought I could look so good! 👏🏻 Already thinking of another session. 📆
The photos are sexy and classy. I will never go to anyone else and you shouldn’t either!! ❤️
PS- this is my first ever online review, so you know it’s legit! 💯”
