Self-Love Boudoir Photography
to help you reconnect with your
Based in Charleston, WV and traveling worldwide, the Sensual Embodiment Boudoir Experience is the luxury boudoir choice for women on a self-love journey ready for that next step into self-empowerment and feminine liberation.
Centered around self-connection and sensual expression, we’re here to help you unveil a gentler, wayyy spicier perspective so you can see yourself as
the art you already are!
your boudoir session
is feminine rebellion.
In a culture intent on keeping women small, insecure, and disconnected from their innate power, choosing to shake the shame and embrace your ever-changing body, sacred sensuality, and endlessly worthy self is the rebellion your inner-teen never knew she was actually begging for!
Boudoir is such an incredible tool for healing our body image shit and releasing the lies that our patriarchal culture has ingrained deep within our big, beautiful brains since childhood about how a woman is allowed to look, act, and show up in her own life to be worthy of love and acceptance from both herself and others.
The Sensual Embodiment Boudoir experience is intentionally created to not only give you that, “oh wow, I’m actually hot as f*ck” moment you’ve been craving, but to show you that you are worthy of love, acceptance, and allllll the good things in the body you have now, not the one you’ve been led to believe you have to shape-shift into before you can live a life of peace, passion, and purpose.
You are already perfectly enough-
this is you choosing to claim that as your truth ♡
There’s more to explore in my featured session series, and I need a few everyday women like you to join me on the adventure! You can save BIG for letting my creativity run wild for the day and selecting a few images to share in my portfolio. Applications are open!
"The self-love you get from this is unmatched! Truly, every second, every bit of care and detail, all of it was worth more than I can say. I just loved all of it so much! I was nervous I would look at the pictures and only be able to see what I didn’t like about myself, but once Michaela started to show me pictures, I knew that wouldn’t be an issue. I looked at them and saw what I think other people see for the first time in a long time, and it felt amazing."

Hi, I’m Michaela-
recovering people-pleaser, passionate advocate for feminine healing through sensual self-connection, and the first person who gets to stand in awe of a more confident and self-accepting you. I'm into themed Disney movie nights, the way sun rays break through the clouds right after a storm, and the sound of the patriarchy crumbling as we break free from societal standards that have always been pushed on us with the intention of enforcing inferiority and keeping us disconnected from our own power so we don’t rise up to take over the crumbling world they created.
My passion is helping others escape the self-imprisonment that comes with feeling trapped in our bodies- a stranger to what is meant to be our most powerful partner, protector, and friend. Sensual, emotive boudoir photography is so much more than beautiful booty pics- but of course, that's part of the fun! I'm here to help you celebrate the pieces of yourself that the world taught you to reject and repress before you even became acquainted with your own magic, passion, and power.
My intention is that you leave your session with more love and acceptance for your ever-changing body and endlessly worthy self so you can move through your life from a place of confidence, authenticity, and empowerment.

I had in my head, because of societal norms, that boudoir was for skinny, well-endowed, in perfect shape women. I’m learning to love the skin I’m in. Doing this session made me feel empowered! I felt sexy as hell when I was shown a few of the images! I never knew I could feel like that in the body I call home. If you’re on the fence about doing a boudoir session with Michaela, jump off on the yes side!! You’ll never find a better person or experience!!

“The self-love journey my first shoot pushed me on is something I never could’ve expected, but has helped me in more ways than I could ever put into words!”

“If you’re even doing a quick look, something inside of you wants it. Somewhere inside of you, you wanna give yourself a chance, and there’s honestly no reason not to. You are beautiful enough. You are strong enough. You are sexy enough. Most of all YOU are enough, so do it! It’ll be the most empowering decision you’ve made. I was honestly so self-conscious, I didn’t think I could ever do it, and now I feel powerful and confident and worthwhile- like I could live a little more and a little differently if I wanted to try.”
