Hi, I'm Elisa
Hey, I’m Elisa.
I work with women who are really good at holding it all together for everyone else… and not so great at letting themselves be seen.
I’ve photographed hundreds of women—moms, business owners, newly single, starting over, healing, numb, hopeful. For a long time, it was mostly boudoir. Now, I’m just as obsessed with the quiet, black & white moments where we sit together, breathe, and let the real you come up for air.
In the studio, I’ll give you direction and tell you exactly what to do with your hands. Still, underneath all of that, I’m watching for her—the way your eyes soften when you finally exhale, the way your mouth shifts when you talk about what you’ve survived, the way your face changes when you remember you’re still here.
These photos aren’t about who you “should” be.
They’re for the woman you already are, in this exact season, without the filter, the role, or the performance.
If you feel a little lump in your throat reading this… you’re exactly who I created this work for.

Why
You need this?
Who is this experience for?
This work is for women who are tired of performing. For mamas whose bodies carried and healed, for grandmas whose laugh lines are family history, for women in the thick of real life who want to feel like more than the role they play. You don’t have to undress or “be confident first” — you just have to be willing to be seen.
The why is simple: you want a record of the woman who does it all—and still deserves softness. Maybe it’s a birthday, a milestone, a comeback, or a quiet promise to stop waiting for perfect. Maybe you’ve survived something and need proof you’re still here. This is space to honor strength and tenderness in the same frame.
These images are evidence. Evidence that you were here, in this chapter, on your terms. On the days you forget, they hand you the truth back. One life, one lap. Let’s make something you can hold.
The Boudoir Gallery
Quick Look at Our
SIGNATURE SETS
Can be added to any boudoir shoot
.01
The Wet Set
The Wet Set uses a fine mist of warm water to deepen shadows and make skin glow. Bring a clingy white tee or go nude—your call. I’ll guide every angle and keep things private; the images are sleek, dark, and ridiculously flattering.
.02
The Honey Set
Our Honey Drip Set is liquid gold—warm, skin-safe gloss poured in slow trails over collarbones and curves so the light catches and sculpts. Lingerie, implied, or nude—it’s your call. I control each pour, direct every pose, and keep towels/robes on hand. The look is dark, moody, and unapologetically luxe.
.03
The Shower Set
Our Steamy Shower Set wraps you in fogged glass and bead-lit highlights. Steam softens the edges while water traces clean lines; I direct every angle for dark, moody frames. Wear a white tee, lingerie, or go nude—your call. Private, towels/robe on standby.
