Luxury Boudoir Photography in Dayton, Ohio

For women 35–55 who want to feel confident, powerful, and truly seen.

I used Dorothy for boudoir photographs and would HIGHLY recommend her! Dorothy is thoughtful, professional, and competent through every step of the process. She executed my vision for my photographs flawlessly, and I could not be more impressed with the final product. Not only am I blown away by the photos, but she has thought through every piece from beginning to end. Working with her felt like working with a well-oiled machine but even better, because she radiates care, compassion, and empathy that allowed me to never feel like I was just another client. I loved her non-judgmental attitude, and would feel safe recommending any person or family to her.

This isn’t about looking sexy. It’s about recognizing yourself again.

You don’t have to know how to pose — you just have to show up. I’ll guide you every step of the way through a full-service, luxury boudoir experience designed for real women in Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati & Indianapolis.

Who This Is For

Not just beautiful photos — a transformational experience

This experience is crafted for women at life’s turning points:
• Turning 40 or 50 and rediscovering themselves
• Emerging from divorce or life resets ready to choose themselves
• Celebrating weight loss or embracing body acceptance
• High-achievers who are confident in life — but not in front of a camera
• Couples celebrating anniversaries with a meaningful gift that isn’t cliché

If you see part of your story here — you’re in exactly the right place.

The Transformation You’re Really Booking

This isn’t just a photoshoot.
It’s a space to reclaim how you see yourself — in photos and in life.
Most women arrive feeling unsure, awkward, or hesitant…
They leave feeling visible, grounded, and proud of who they are.

Confidence isn’t something you wait for — it’s something you create.​

A luxury, full-service boudoir session designed around you:
✔ Private pre-session planning + wardrobe guidance
✔ Professional hair & makeup in-studio
✔ Curated wardrobe + accessories
✔ Expert posing & direction (no guesswork)
✔ Same-day image reveal & ordering appointment
