Before & Afters ::: Orange County Boudoir ::: Grace and Lace Boudoir

We are firm believers that all women are beautiful – and WE LOVE giving our clients an experience where they can see themselves in a new light and celebrate themselves. We don’t share before and afters to show how different you can look for your session or to insinuate that you are not enough in your day to day look - the reason why we share these is that we hear over and over again from women who say, ‘I could never look like that’… Ummm, YES YOU CAN! Our boudoir clients come from all over and they are everyday women just like you – of all ages, all shapes and sizes, and from all walks of life. These women ARE YOU!

We also believe that you are in control of the entire shoot. You have a say in how you would like your makeup - you’ll let us know when you fill out your questionnaire by choosing from below (multiple answers are allowed, too ;)

Natural (Freckles are still visible, minimal eye makeup, neutral lip color)

Natural with a touch of sexy (Soft glam with glowy skin and a soft smokey eye; almost bridal like makeup)

Full Glam (Sultry smokey eye, glowy contoured skin, bronzed)

Dramatic (Sultry smokey eye, contoured face with a dramatic lip)

I have no idea, I trust the makeup artist

Before & After photos are here so that you can see that ANYONE can do this!

A little bit about us.

So, one of the most asked questions that we get from our clients is how Jeni and I met. Jeni and I have known each other now for over 10 years. We met at church at a small families group that we were both in. Jeni had moved down here from Washington DC with her husband and son, and I was pregnant with my first child. Jeni and I have both been in our line of work for over 15 years, so about 6 years ago we decided to collaborate. We both decided that boudoir was our passion, so we stopped doing weddings and are now focused solely on boudoir. We consider ourselves so lucky to have been able to found a job that seems more like a hobby than work, and we get to do it together! #workingwithfriends #ourstory
