"Let's keep it casual," she said.
Hi, I'm Michael, I'm a bit of a geek, but more importantly, I'm a boudoir photographer from New Jersey. Boudoir is my thing! I shoot many boudoir sessions each year, and the best parts about my job are all the tremendous women I encounter, and how each session is so unique. My sessions range from demure to down-right sexy, and everything in between. The goal behind each boudoir photo shoot is to (1) tell a bit of a story, (2) make sure my clients have a great time, and (3) produce amazing quality shots they can't find anywhere else!
Each boudoir session is a journey, not just for my clients, but for me as well. Although clients often have an idea of what they would like to do during their session, I never really know the ultimate path a photo shoot will take. Once I get started, each session takes on a mini life of its own. One thing is for sure, a boudoir session tells a lot about the style of the client. It’s fascinating to see how their personality and preferences shine through in the images. Couple that with living in New Jersey—which has some long, cold winter months, and you get a situation which creates some unique inspiration for boudoir.
During the cold winter months, it's especially cuddly to bring in the chunky sweaters and do more of a casual boudoir session. There’s something incredibly cozy and intimate about these sessions. It's fun to photograph, and it really does deliver a bit of a different vibe to the photo shoot, which I love. The contrast between the warmth of the sweater and the sensuality of the poses creates a compelling dynamic that’s both inviting and alluring.
I thought I'd share a couple of super cute casual boudoir photos so you can see what it's all about. You know, of course, here at the Top Secret Boudoir Headquarters I try to take it up to the next level... and I think we did! Can you still pull off sexy poses in a casual boudoir outfit? Yup!

If you have questions about boudoir photos, or boudoir posing, please don't hesitate to send me a note. I'm here to help.
Additionally, if you're considering a boudoir session and feeling a bit nervous, that's completely normal! Many clients feel a mix of excitement and apprehension before their shoot. My job is to make you feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful. From the moment you walk into my studio, we’ll chat, laugh, and ease into the session naturally. I believe that the best photos come from a place of genuine comfort and fun, so I make it my mission to create an environment where you can truly be yourself.
Remember, boudoir photography isn’t just about the photos—it’s about the experience. It’s a celebration of you, exactly as you are. Whether you’re gifting the photos to someone special or just treating yourself, a boudoir session is an empowering and unforgettable experience. So, grab your favorite chunky sweater, bring your beautiful self, and let's create something amazing together.
Enjoy!
Mike
