get to know your boudoir photographer
Hi, my name is Amanda. I love and celebrate the beauty and spirit of women through Boudoir photography and hope that you see that reflected in my portfolio.
I believe a Boudoir Shoot is one of the most fun and life affirming things a woman can do for herself. This is your “me” time – the moment to celebrate being a woman and who you are today – that’s why I choose to shoot Boudoir Portraits to celebrate and capture the essence of you. Honestly, you will see yourself in a new light whether you’re brimming with confidence or a bit shy. I have a great team that works with me to make this experience everything it should be.
Hair and makeup are part of your package and you can do natural to glam makeup, an enhanced “natural” with expertly applied makeup that, or go for the ultra glam or hot girl look, whatever suits you and your personality best, you choose. Want more than one style, we can easily accommodate that as well. We go all out to make you look and feel your best, it should be an “experience” to remember.
Not sure this if this type of photography session is right for you? Call me to chat, ask all the questions you want to make sure we’re a good fit. I want you to feel excited and great your session. I’m looking forward to meeting you and creating beautiful images of you.
empower.
Feel stronger and more confident. Know who you are, find your strength, show off your beauty but most importantly, do this for you.
trust.
Placing your trust in and connecting with your photographer is one of the most important parts of your session. Give yourself permission to relax and enjoy this time for yourself. After all, you deserve it.
celebrate.
Be fun and spontaneous! Celebrate your body with boudoir. Your session is to celebrate the real you – the you the world sees and the secret you that lives inside.
bringing out your inner woman
Your Boudoir Experience is a day of pampering from start to finish – and I am thrilled to be on this journey with you, the entire way. Even when you are in the changing room trying on outfits and you are feeling unsure- send me your visions. (I am also always up for a shopping date!)
I will provide a fabulous hairstylist and makeup artist who will make you shine at your shoot. You can request a natural to high glamour look and the style team will make it happen.
Your experience will start with you having your hair and makeup done. Once you’re ready, we move on to getting you into your first outfit and onto the set. Just relax, I’m a specialist in posing everyone to make them look their best. Before you know it you’ll barely be aware that you’re being photographed in your skivvies. I’m confident you’ll be thrilled with your images, and your experience.
beautiful lingerie should make you feel sexy— even if it isn’t seen by anyone but you.
Choosing outfits can be a bit stressful, the most important thing to remember is to make sure you choose outfits that make you feel sexy, but at the same time are comfortable. Bring at least one or two bra and panty sets. Corsets, garters and nylons are also great. A silk robe to wrap yourself in is a dynamite outfit and really versatile.
An oversized sweater can lend itself to a more casual but outstanding and very sexy look. That gorgeous dress that you’ve been dying to wear can be subtly sexy and create images that you can share with friends and family if you’re the least bit shy about sharing your more personal images. Denim and lace is another killer look!
For an edgier look a bra and leggings with killer heels can be a dynamite look if you have an edgier personality and want to showcase that as well as your romantic side.
Accessorize your looks with killer shoes – bring at least a couple of pair that work with your outfits. Remember you’re not going to be walking in them so they don’t have to be super comfortable. Other accessories that work are necklaces, earrings, scarves, hats, gloves — even boots can provide a whole other look to your images.
relax & be yourself
You’re investing a lot into this experience, so enjoy it! Don’t think about any negatives or what you may consider to be imperfections. Have faith that you look amazing, the rest is up to us and we’ll make sure you look amazing. We’ll have some wine, fun and laughs. You’re welcome to bring music that you love – whatever will make you feel good and either relax you or get you pumped, your choice.

I have to say I had such a great, positive experience getting my boudoir pictures done with Amanda Dinn-Mercer! I am someone who hates getting my picture taken, I don't smile for the camera in poses and I just feel yucky and awkward... Amanda makes you forget all about your insecurities and makes you feel like you are simply beautiful... It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend doing this!

This woman is amazing, if any of you have been thinking of doing a boudoir session but have been hesitant, let me tell you first hand there's no need... go for it! [Amanda] made me feel so beautiful and at ease. We chatted and had some laughs throughout and before I knew it the hour was up! I did mine as a gift for my husband to be on our wedding day and she's been nothing short of amazing taking care of having all my images done and even expressed my gift so we would be sure it would be here for the big day. She was so excited about the pictures, she made me even more excited and with good reason.. they came out better than I ever could have imagined – I was blown away! Such a positive, uplifting experience. In short ladies, my advice is if you've been thinking about doing a boudoir session there's no one better than this beauty... put on those heels and flaunt it!! 💋
[Amanda] made me feel so comfortable from the moment I met her upon walking in to the studio. At first I was so nervous but once the one on one session started I felt completely at ease under her amazing directing! The whole experience was fabulous from the girls who did my hair and makeup... to get me camera ready to the photo shoot. I love my pictures and I can’t wait for my future hubby to see them!! Thank you xoxo
My boudoir session was done originally as a gift to my husband on our wedding day but it was so much more than that. I did it for me. It was raw and beautiful and gave me the confidence to be seen, something I never ever experienced.
Without a doubt, the boudoir experience was one of my favourite things that I have done for ME! Amanda, you are amazing at what you do! I felt so glamorous and sexy.
Thank you for the beautiful pictures and wonderful memories
Best experience ever !! If you wanna feel like a woman again , Amanda’s boudoir photo shoot is where it’s at . My images made me feel like who I’m meant to be …. A little sassy, fun but still classy.
Amanda and her team will pamper you and make you feel so special! I can’t say enough good things about how much confidence they will make you feel for your session. My stomach hurt from laughing after! So much fun would highly recommend anyone to do it, even if it is just for yourself! Such a confidence booster!
