Embrace your SEXUALITY, don’t minimize and hide it because society has taught you its unacceptable to feel or be sexy. There is power in sex confidence, its natural. What crazy is it’s not even all about sex, its about feeling comfortable in our own skin and expressing ourselves.

Don’t let others devalue or take away what makes you feel strong… What makes you feel, YOU!

Your photographers experience in this niche style of shooting (boudoir) is a lot more important than you might think. Not only are no two boudoir sessions or photographers alike, but the culmination of ones experience with lighting and posing can greatly affect the outcome of a session. “When I started boudoir, I had been photographing weddings for about 8 years, and let me tell you… I was in over my head thinking I could just pick this up.”

Volpe E L Luna is a brand I started to fill my “artistic” void in photography. Majority of my work with alice heart photography & becoming fire boudoir is client facing. Although a lot of my clients give me “free reign” to create, they are still expecting a specific product return, which ads an amount of rigidity to the work. With this new brand I am able to create art and work on projects I would otherwise not be able to do.

Not only is a boudoir session a great wedding gift idea for the both of you to commemorate this chapter in your life. You could even consider a luxury boudoir session as spicy Christmas gift idea for him, a Valentines day gift for your significant other, or just a gift for yourself!

The short answer? No… You do not need lingerie to get some absolutely stunning/ sexy boudoir photos.

If you have a body… Then boudoir photography is for you! Absolutely! Boudoir is about a self love experience. Think of it as a documentation of your bodies journey through life, a sort of way to appreciate the skin your in and all the accomplishments, and scars you’ve gathered along the way.

“Live unapologetically bold and fearlessly. Take risks, chase dreams, and live life today. Because tomorrow isn't promised.”

You don't have to be a model because I'm here to guide the posing process. You are good enough, don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Ok listen... You're going to look AMAZING with my years of experience and expertise in the field, I've been shooting professionally for 10 years and have photographed well over 100 boudoir sessions and I know for a fact that you are going to fall in love with yourself!

So you are looking for the best boudoir photographer in Michigan, maybe somewhere close to Ann Arbor, MI and you stumbled across this blog post. Now you are asking yourself… What makes Jarrett the best boudoir photographer in Ann Arbor Michigan? Oh yeah, and by the way…

Jarrett and Becoming Fire is hands down amazing. I had a boudoir session a week earlier, with a different photographer, that was not able to capture what I wanted. Jarrett captured me and so much more.

I often get asked “what should I wear for my shoot?” Lets face it, deciding what to wear for your boudoir session can be a hurdle on its own. There is so much variety out there, so it can be hard to decide.

In an effort to try and post more blogs this year, I have been looking through various photoshoots over the years and began to compile ideas for your first or next boudoir shoot. While most of my shoots take place indoors, I cant help but love to step even further outside the comfort zone and shoot boudoir sessions outside.

Wow… Its really been a minute since I’ve written a blog for the website. Keeping up with social media and keeping all of you engaged with my work over the years has been no joke. I appreciate all of you for believing in me and choosing me to capture what lies beyond the mask you put on for society, and for allowing me to create a warm and welcoming environment that becomes a catalyst for you to be your intimate and confident self.

My experience with Jarrett was amazing in its entirety! During the planning and scheduling process all of his responses were prompt and professional. I reached out to Jarrett via Instagram and he was continuously kind and provided me with answers to all of my questions and sent me a direct link to the "Welcome Guide" on his website (worth the read btw!). With scheduling, Jarrett was patient and flexible and I was able to contact him through e-mail as well as text. Upon arriving at the studio, I experienced the usual nerves, (I thought about canceling because I was so nervous lol) but I quickly felt at ease and comfortable while getting hair and make-up done. Jarrett is super personable and easy to talk to.

You might be wondering with all these amazing images on the website… What does a full gallery reveal look like? Well it looks a little something like this… Yes, its tough to choose!

I had the BEST experience. Being a female I feel like sometimes it can be uncomfortable working with male photographers. I also arrived SO nervous not ever doing anything like this before, and with in 10 minutes I felt so comfortable. Jarrett was so respectful and professional. Not only that, his work is BEAUTIFUL! I would recommend him to anyone looking for boudoir or weddings, or any type of photography session he offers because he’s so great! My photos turned out AMAZING, it took me almost a week to chose which ones I wanted because I wanted them all lol. I am so happy and my boyfriend is even more happy! I will definitely be doing so many more sessions. But I’m going to yoga first because I realized how bad I NEED it after my boudoir session.
