The Petite Session

Life is short. Do the photoshoot.

What is a Petite Session?

Modern Boudoir | The Petite Session is a limited edition photoshoot set in a serene, midcentury retreat - where timeless design and quiet confidence come together to celebrate the beauty of being present. A Petite Session is a shorter, more focused boudoir experience designed to be both accessible and powerful. It includes a private, guided photoshoot in a stunning location, capturing honest, elegant images that reflect each woman’s strength, vulnerability, and story. Whether feeling grounded or in transition, this session offers space for connection and self-reflection—no perfection required.

Who It's For?

  • Women who are ready to celebrate - whether you’re standing tall or slowly stepping back into your light.

  • Women who are curious - maybe you’ve never considered a session, and this feels like new territory.

  • Women who want to inspire - your courage to be seen might just give someone else permission to do the same.

  • Women who are ready to see themselves differently - through a lens that reveals your strength, beauty, and power.

Why Now?

Because life’s short - and we so often put off celebrating ourselves, waiting for the perfect time, the perfect body, or even just a decent night’s sleep. If a boudoir session has been on your mind, this is your sign to stop waiting. This pop-up experience is a rare opportunity to be photographed in an absolutely stunning space - a modern, private location filled with natural light and clean, minimal design. Both the airy studio and lush garden will be available for your session, offering a beautiful variety of backdrops. It’s a dream setting with serious East Bay vibes, and I can’t wait to create in it with you.

Why It’s Important?

Life moves fast. We focus on everyone else and lose sight of ourselves - how we’re feeling and who we’ve become. This is your reminder to pause. To quiet the self-doubt and see what’s already here: your strength, your story, your beauty. You don’t need to change a thing. Just show up as you are - and let your images reflect the power that’s always been there.

What’s Included

TESTIMONIALS.

  • “Where do I even begin? This was so much more than I ever expected. I love that Juleen celebrates movement and form and it's about me as a person, not just a sexualized version of me. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.”

    Megan

  • “This is something that I've always wanted to do, but when I looked at other photographers, I wasn't feeling it. I didn't love the idea of a narrow view of feminity or feeling sexy. I wanted photos that felt like me, not me trying to be someone else. I didn't even know this type of photography was a thing until I found Juleen. I'm so in love with the experience and my photos.”

    Alison

  • “So much has shifted in my life since my photoshoot. The whole process opened me up to do some healing around past trauma. I'm able to see myself and even my imperfections in a new way. It's been a catalyst to moving forward and embracing my life.”

    Andi

You’re not here for someone else’s idea of beautiful!

FAQs.

  • I’ll share my prep guide with wardrobe suggestions and links to inspiration boards - plus we’ll hop on a call to talk about the details. Revealing more skin than usual can feel vulnerable. I incorporate robes and draping to find just the right amount of exposure. My boudoir portraits often lean toward implied nudes that focus on the suggestion of a woman’s curves.

  • An everyday look is more than enough - lean into that.

    To elevate the day, I’m happy to recommend trusted hair and makeup artists across the SF Bay Area. To protect everyone’s privacy, professional hair and makeup will take place offsite for this event.

  • I photograph everday people, not models. I’ll guide you through posing that is designed to feel natural and empowering. I promise - it will be fun! None of us know what to do with our hands when the camera comes out. I’ve got you.

  • There’s something deeply powerful about photographing women who are in connection with themselves. That grounded presence, that quiet confidence - it radiates beauty in every form. It might show up as a messy bun and an oversized sweatshirt slipping off one shoulder, a sheer blouse and tousled hair, or a quiet moment wrapped in a robe with a warm cup of tea. Fine art boudoir becomes a reflection of the woman in front of the lens—bold and sexy, soft and sensual, or a blend of both. These sessions are about honoring authenticity, not fitting into anyone else’s mold. And if the portraits happen to be shared with a partner, it’s simply a lovely bonus.

  • I photograph in color, but I’m gaga for black & white images. I often convert my portrait work to B&W to highlight the expression or form. Some photos speak to me in color and others demand to be B&W. Most of the time it’s a feeling.

  • Only with permission. Privacy is a top priority, and all boundaries are respected at every step.

  • I use light, natural retouching to enhance without changing what makes you you. Think polished, not plastic.

  • Yes! Boudoir sessions make meaningful gifts for a partner—or even better, as a personal celebration.
