Paris has always been my heart’s second home. There’s something about the way the light hits the old stone buildings, how the city hums with romance and creativity, how every little alleyway feels like a scene from a vintage film. And for me, as a boudoir photographer, there’s truly no better backdrop than Paris. If you’ve ever dreamed of being photographed in the City of Light, I’m here to tell you: this is your sign.
I’m Critsey, the woman behind Couture Boudoir®, and for over a decade, I’ve been helping women step into their power, beauty, and confidence through the art of boudoir photography. It’s not just about photos—it’s about the experience, the transformation, the way you’ll walk a little taller afterward. And when you combine that experience with Paris? Magic happens.
What Makes a Parisian Boudoir Session So Special?
First, can we just acknowledge that Paris is the queen of romance and elegance? Whether you’ve been once or a hundred times, or you’re dreaming of your first visit, the charm never wears off. But beyond the city’s beauty, a Parisian boudoir shoot offers something deeper—it’s about capturing the essence of how you feel when you’re there. The confidence, the allure, the freedom. That’s what I aim to bottle up in your photographs.
Imagine yourself lounging on a vintage velvet settee in a Haussmann-style apartment, soft Parisian light pouring in through tall windows. Or wrapped in a silky robe on a balcony overlooking rooftops and chimneys, the Eiffel Tower peeking in the background. That’s the vibe we’re going for—timeless, dreamy, effortless.
Why Women Book Boudoir Sessions with Me in Paris
The most common thing women tell me is, “I just want to feel like me again—or maybe like the best version of me.” Whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, a personal transformation, a solo trip, or simply want to do something bold and exciting, a boudoir shoot in Paris is an unforgettable way to mark the occasion.
My sessions are built around trust, comfort, and authenticity. No over-posing. No awkward angles. Just real connection, real emotion, and a whole lot of fun. And in Paris, it’s not hard to feel completely immersed in that energy. You’re already surrounded by beauty—you are beauty.
Also, I take care of everything. Location, hair and makeup, wardrobe guidance, even a glass of bubbly to calm the nerves. All you have to do is show up and be yourself.
But… Is It Really for Me?
I hear this a lot. “I’m not a model.” “I don’t know how to pose.” “I’m not sure I’m confident enough.” I’ve heard every version of this, and here’s the truth: boudoir photography isn’t for models. It’s for women. All women. Every shape, size, age, and background.
I’ve photographed women in their 20s and their 60s. Women in the middle of a life pivot, and women on top of the world. Women healing from heartbreak, celebrating love, honoring their bodies after children, or simply saying “yes” to themselves for the first time in forever.
So no, you don’t have to “feel ready.” You don’t need to lose five pounds. You don’t need to know how to pose (that’s my job!). All you need is the willingness to show up and trust that this experience is for you—not for anyone else.
The Power of Seeing Yourself Through a New Lens
One of the most beautiful parts of my job is showing women how the world sees them—how I see them—through my lens. And almost every single time, I get the same reaction: “I can’t believe that’s me!”
But it is you. The empowered, radiant, sensual version of you that’s been there all along. Boudoir has a way of reminding us who we are, especially when life has made us forget.
And when that moment is captured in a Parisian apartment, or with the soft light of a cloudy French afternoon wrapping around you like silk? It becomes art. It becomes a memory. It becomes part of your story.
A Parisian Experience You’ll Never Forget
Doing a boudoir session in Paris is more than just a photo shoot—it’s a moment that’s just for you. It’s an act of self-love, of courage, of celebration. And whether you’re traveling solo or building it into a romantic getaway or girls’ trip, I promise the experience will stay with you long after you return home.
Some of my clients turn it into a full Parisian adventure: spa days, croissants in bed, shopping in the Marais, late-night wine under string lights. Others keep it quiet and reflective—just them, the city, and a whole lot of self-discovery. There’s no wrong way to do this. Only your way.
Ready to Make the Dream a Reality?
If Paris has been calling your name, if you’ve felt that little tug that says, “This is something I need to do,” then trust that. I’d love nothing more than to help you create something unforgettable in this city I adore so much.
Booking is easy, and I’m here to walk you through every step. Whether you already have a trip planned or need help creating one around your session, I can help make it seamless and magical.
Your Parisian boudoir experience is waiting—and so am I.

Critsey
