Hi! It's Melissa!
I believe that all women are beautiful as their true selves. What makes a woman beautiful isn't just what's on the outside, it's honestly what's on inside that makes them epically beautiful and shine!
But in the journey to let the emotions and beauty that's inside show, it's powerful to doll up on the outside and pamper yourelf!

Why do I love shooting boudoir?
This is a powerful and luxurious type of photography. It’s also a very intimate type of photography. I care deeply about people and mental health. I believe that learning to love yourself is an important part of your mental health.
I love shooting boudoir because this is a chance for the women in front of my camera to learn to love themselves. It's luxurious to finally be able to feel like yourself.
I love it because not only is it my opportunity to show these women how amazing and strong they are but also for them to finally see themselves the way the world sees them. Confident, strong, brave, powerful and of course beautiful.
Boudoir to me is more than just beautiful photos of amazing women, it is a chance to change a life and show love and support to everyone!
hi, I'm Melissa!

Boudoir is more than just sexy photos. It's about beauty, empowerment and learning to love the skin you're in. To see yourself as beautiful as you are seen in everyone else's eyes.
Boudoir photography has been an artform since literally the invention of cameras. Still, there’s a bit of confusion surrounding the topic, so I wanted to take a second to dispel some myths and tell you exactly what boudoir photography is. In short: it’s a series of tasteful, artful sensual images — usually of a woman, but sometimes of a couple or even a man.

What is Boudoir?
From today this is what I got.... from the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything! 💕 I feel amazing! I'm impressed with how they turned out honestly .... my body shape and size... my view of myself.
I loved how playful, fun and sexy it was... pulling out the feminine side of me which doesn't come out a whole lot. I feel in love with the brave, fierce, compassionate, gentle, understanding woman that I am.... and accepting everything I am not.... not a policy writer, I am not a follower, I am not one to look the other way... I am a stunning human being that brings light to so many people and a voice to those who don't have one without trying, I do it with grace, ease and comfort. My life is made for something bigger than the corporate world or just some job. My life's purpose is reignite the light of hope for life through love and laughter! ❤️🤣🤪💝
Because that is who I am.... unstoppable and unfuckable with!
😍🥰❤️💕

I did the boudoir session to feel more confident in myself and my body. After a recent divorce and weight loss I wasn't feeling like I felt like I should and wanted to find something that would take me out of my comfort zone and show me and others that I am beautiful and worthy. Melissa and Jessi made me feel comfortable and at ease the whole time. I felt empowered and strong. I can't wait to be able to show people what I accomplished today.

Being a mother of 3 kids the idea of having a boudoir shoot was scary to say the least. Melissa made me feel amazing and encouraged me every step of the way. I came in nervous but left the studio feeling like an absolute goddess.

What an amazing day! Melissa greets you right at your car. It felt like I was going to see a friend. Jessi did an amazing job on my hair and makeup, while I talked with both Jessi and Melissa they made me feel so comfortable during the entire session. Melissa walked me through the entire photo session, showing me poses and making me feel beautiful. She had so many great ideas. Walked out feeling beautiful and confident! Thank you!

Melissa Quiring thank you so much for today! I can't even tell you what an ego boost it was to embrace my vulnerability and have the return be so rewarding ❤❤ I am so grateful to you and your team!
Today was an incredible experience. Nothing like a little girl time with some new friends! The entire process of Melissa's boudoir was comfortable, welcoming, encouraging, and a huge ego boost. Thank you to all of the gals that helped me see the queen I am!

I initially booked this session back in February. I’ve been trying to find my self confidence again. This entire idea was out of my comfort zone. I was afraid of being judge because of my body. I was afraid of taking such intimate pictures. I was mainly afraid I wouldn’t like the experience at all. After spending the afternoon getting pampered and taking pictures, I felt a noticeable difference my self confidence after the session. This entire experience was for myself, and now my boyfriend gets a bonus of not only seeing the pictures but having me gain some of my confidence back. Thanks for everything Melissa!

Omg!! What a day! Melissa is more than professional at her craft. She is lovable and easy to talk to. She makes every detail matter. Every moment is captured perfectly.
Everything about my session was perfect. Jessi and her makeup, The Femme Farm’s setting and Melissa make perfect trio.
Worth the drive and time to spend a day with awesome women who share the same trials and tribulations in womanhood - with conquering attitudes.
Thank you for making it so easy to get in front of the camera without thinking about the lies your mirror tries to tell.

This was an amazing experience and Melissa and her team did a phenomenal job. I only wish I would have done this sooner and more often! Never let the price you put into yourself make you feel bad! This was one trip I would most definitely do again.
