Pose with horses at High Horse Malibu, with the stunning Malibu mountain ranges behind you.
Over the spring and summer months, Malibu and other locations across Los Angeles are full of beautiful wildflowers.
There are a ton of choices. Los Angeles is filled with mountain ranges from Malibu to East Los Angeles. One of my favorites is Placerita Canyon, which is adorned with oak trees.
Beautiful caves and rock formations along the California coastline. El Matador is one of the most popular choices.

We will keep an eye on the forecast, but here in Los Angeles we get beautiful weather year round.
I will demonstrate every pose, as many times as necessary. You will never be left wondering what to do with your limbs or your fingertips.
Typically, we shoot at sunrise or quiet times, to avoid onlookers. So, it will just be us and the make-up artist at the beginning. From start to finish, you will be relaxing and connecting with yourself.
There are no mandatory minimums and nothing is ever shared without your explicit permission.
Being out in the open can feel overwhelming at first. Most women who come to me have never done anything like this and they feel nervous. The entire experience is designed to mitigate any nerves you might be feeling.

She is incredibly fun, encouraging, and has a way of making you feel completely comfortable and confident in front of the camera without ever feeling awkward or self-conscious. Her energy is so warm and positive that it feels like spending time with a friend rather than being in a photoshoot.

Testimonial

I grew up believing beauty looked a certain way. The world around me taught me that beauty meant fitting into narrow standards, and for years I picked apart every part of myself that didn't. It was not until I discovered boudoir photography in college, that my sense of self started to change. I saw women who were not trying to be anyone else. They were simply taking up space, owning who they were, and finding beauty in their authenticity.
That same feeling is what drew me to found ELI Boudoir and pulls me towards outdoor boudoir photography today. Whether standing on a mountain-top, walking along the beach, or surrounded by wildflowers, there is something incredibly empowering about embracing yourself in the open air. That's why I founded ELI Boudoir: to help women reconnect with their bodies, their confidence, and their sense of self. Thank you for trusting us with such an important part of your story.
A letter from elili
There is always a chance that one or two people walk by, but I keep your shoot as private as possible. Sometimes this means driving a bit farther out or shooting at sunrise. If you want the classic golden hour look, a weeknight is usually your best bet.
Submit an inquiry form to begin. After we connect, and schedule your photoshoot. After your outdoor boudoir session, you will have a private reveal and ordering appointment where you get to see your photographs.
Yes! Outdoor boudoir sessions are offered in addition to my studio sessions in Venice. I have plenty of clients who book both. You can inquire about a studio boudoir session here!
Absolutely, if you book a couples boudoir photoshoot. Couples boudoir sessions are available and one of my favorite ways to capture love and the intimacy of a relationship.
Completely. Your photographs are yours. I offer three different model release options: a complete release, a partial release, and no release. I will never share your photographs publicly without your explicit permission.
The options are endless. Flowing dresses, bodysuits, and lingerie all photograph beautifully outdoors. We will plan your outfits together and you will receive my outdoor boudoir preparation guide!
No, and no. Under no circumstances do you need to lose weight or are you too old to do a boudoir session. I photograph the body you currently have. Every body, every age, every story, sizes 0 through 30 and beyond. Your body is beautiful and deserves love. I want to help you gain or strengthen your confidence in your current body.
This is the most common feeling I hear from my clients. Our entire experience is designed for exactly that. Your session is fully guided with hands-on posing every step of the way, so you need zero experience in front of the camera. I guarantee you will walk away feeling photogenic.
Every session starts with a $750 session fee. That covers planning, scouting, professional hair and makeup, styling, and your guided shoot. After, you choose a collection: digital from $700, albums and wall art from $1,900. Most clients spend between $3,000 and $5,000.
Some locations charge permit fees and these are not included in your session fee. So, you will have to cover these fees as well. What is needed depends on the location, the type of session, and each location's rules.
We will watch the forecast. before your session and if there is a freak weather disaster, we will reschedule your shoot. However, cloudy days can be beautiful days for photoshoots. Even rain can look beautiful. So even slight weather hiccups can make your photoshoot even more spectacular.
Yes, professional make-up is included by an expert is included in every single session. However, if you would prefer to do you own make-up, please communicate so upon booking your session!
I have a ton of go to spots in Los Angeles. Two of my all time favorites are El Matador Beach in Malibu and Placerita's Canyon in Santa Clarita. If you have a location in mind, we can discuss this further once you book your photoshoot.
