The boudoir experience has empowered me by being able to feel even more comfortable showing a bit more skin. Feeling sexier, although I am not in my “goal” body at the moment! Lol It also helped my model skills enliven and made me comfortable and receptive to future gigs/shoots.
My favorite part of the experience/shoot was during scene & wardrobe changes. I enjoyed all of my looks that Olesha curated specifically for me as well as seeing the creative process of the scene changes. I am a very visual person so I appreciated that. But, I also enjoyed my makeup application (as well as meeting the talented make up artist), and the fact that the room was set up for me with my name on the door, goodies, and great wine!
One thing to mention to other Beauties about doing their own experience is that Olesha is very accommodating and comforting. The entire shoot process and the way it unfolds is totally up to you. So you lead the way. This was great because it was my first boudoir shoot and I was apprehensive about it initially because of feeling like I didn’t have the “photo shoot body”.
Overall the shoot was a great experience and I’m glad I opened myself up to experience this. I am now comfortable with working with Olesha for any future projects.

The overall experience was empowering for me. I have never done a professional photo shoot let alone a boudoir shoot so for a lens to be able to capture the intimacy between two queer people of color was empowering. I looked at the pictures in awe as the photographer, Olesha caught everything from the laughs to the sexy which I appreciate.
The best memory of the overall experience was the constant communication. Olesha constantly checked in to ensure our comfortability, offered direction and support when necessary, encouraged creative input, and had Jennifer and I laughing the entire time ! The communication allowed for a necessary level of transparency that allowed everything to flow naturally.
As I mentioned this was not only my first boudoir experience but my first professional photo shoot so I was NERVOUS! I didn’t know what to expect however after meeting and engaging with Olesha I felt right at home. She is warm, insightful, and encouraging. She also allowed us to set our own boundaries and didn’t apply any pressure. My body had never been photographed in such a way so to have someone willing to listen and acknowledge your input was enlightening.
Don’t overthink it and question yourself you are beautiful enough, sexy enough, and captivating enough. This experience will give you an opportunity to embrace and appreciate yourself.
Again thanks for the opportunity!

The boudoir experience made me feel like a goddess. I felt uplifted and encouraged to embrace my vulnerability and divine feminine energy.
Overall the best memory I had was dancing like nobody was watching. I love to dance, it always makes me feel free, being able to do so without judgement made me feel even more comfortable and open.
I did have some reservations because I hadn’t been in front of a camera in a long time, almost 10 years. I wasn’t sure which poses I should do or if I should pose at all. That went right out the window because Olesha walked me through each shot. She showed poses and then allowed me to build upon that and do what felt natural. That was a breath of fresh air and removed that awkwardness.
Let this experience be another form of self care. Allow it to show you how much courage you truly have. You are worthy of feeling and being sexy, beautiful and powerful. What Olesha does is so different than any photoshoot I’ve ever done. She will be sure you are comfortable and supported and put you in the best light possible.
