ARE YOU READY TO EMBRACE YOURSELF?
"Take a thousand naked pictures of yourself now. You may currently think, "Oh, I'm too spooky.", or, "Nobody wants to see these tiny boobies." But believe me, one day you will look at those photos, with much kinder eyes and say, "Dear God, I was a beautiful thing!"
-Moira Rose, Schitts Creek

Hi, my name is Katie and I am an intimate artist that specializes in boudoir/glamour/erotica/kink photography. I'm located in Akron, Ohio and serve all of Northeast Ohio & surrounding states. I do love to travel with my art as well, so if you would like to book me for travel or events, just reach out!
I love and celebrate the beauty and spirit we all have inside us through photography, and hope that you see that reflected in my portfolio. I've been a photographer for 12 years and I've specialized in this genre for 7. I am an educator in the industry and have been published in several magazines and newspapers. I hold a lot of free body positive events & meet ups as well... you can follow along with these events by joining my womens only group, WOMENS ONLY FACEBOOK GROUP I photograph everyday men, women and couples. My clients are of all shapes, ages & Ethnicities. You can never be too old for this type of shoot.. You can never weigh too much or too little. Wherever you are on your body journey is where you should be right now, and that deserves celebration. It has become a mission of mine to remind everyone, especially women, to accept who they are now & embrace their ever changing body. I strive to show every human I photograph how truly incredible, and unique they are. To embrace their scars and "imperfections". Those are the unique lines that tell our story. I believe one of these intimate sessions is one of the most fun and life affirming things a person can do for themselves. This is your “me” time - the time to celebrate being the person you are today. You're strong, you're still standing, and that alone is something worth documenting with artwork that will last a lifetime. You will see yourself in a new light whether you’re already brimming with confidence or a bit shy. I have a great team of hair and makeup artists to help you create the look that is right for you. Want more than one style? We can easily accommodate that as well. We go all out to make you look and feel your best. It should be an experience to remember, not just a photoshoot. I look forward to meeting and creating beautiful artwork of YOU! Explore my site, check out the galleries, head to my personal site to find out how to book with me, or get in Contact if you want to create art together! Hope to chat soon... Katie xoxo HEAD TO KATIE'S PAGE |

I love capturing individuals intimacy, vulnerability, sensuality and beauty because it’s truly a unique experience. It’s a special and timeless gift that will be cherished forever. The way we see ourselves before the mirror everyday isn’t how the world sees us. Let me show you how beautiful you are to me!” TAKE ME TO CHRISTY'S PAGE |

MEET ALEXIS!
Alexis has been a photographer and working close beside Katie for 2 years. She has her own wedding & family photography business, and was rated one of the top wedding photographers in Canton in 2022! "I love shooting boudoir photography because I love being able to capture the beauty of individuals and couples that they that don't necessarily normally see or feel. I struggled with my own self confidence and image my entire life.. but when I had my 1st boudoir session I truly felt beautiful and sexy. Being a photographer already I knew I wanted to make others feel the same way. I love seeing their faces light up when they see themselves in their photos but I also love seeing how much fun and how confident they become during their session." TAKE ME TO ALEXIS' PAGE |

MEET BRITTANY!
Brittany has been a photographer with Katie since September 2021. Photography is Brittany's part time job, as her full time is taking care of people as an Senior Nurse Technician at hospital here in Akron. She loves taking images outside, and is all about bringing your ideas to life. "I chose to get into boudoir photography to be able to find the spark in a persons eyes when they see themselves from a different perspective. Society standards, social media standards, even people hinder our confidence and how we view ourselves. We are so focused on being PERFECT except perfect doesn’t exist. I have had so many experiences and relationships with people who would tell me they loved me one day and the next day i was easily replaceable. My first shoot was eye opening and I wanted to be able to bring that light back into others like it did for me." TAKE ME TO BRITTANY'S PAGE |

MEET BECCA!
Becca is our studio manager and assistant. She's been into photography since she was a teen and has been working on building her skills in her free time. She does most of the video for our clients as well! She's a mom to 3 beautiful souls and loves all things water, music and love. "I first fell in love with boudoir in 2017, the first time I got in front of Katie & her camera. I love the feeling and confidence that comes from experiencing a session. I love seeing other women tap into a sometimes forgotten part of themselves. Boudoir helps us to love ourselves as we are. I hope to get behind the camera soon, so that I can give others the experience too. A part of me has grown with Embrace over the years and I'm excited to be a part of the team!" |
