"I feel like a new, better person because of my shoot. I won’t look at myself the same way again."

From the moment I sent Danielle a message, I felt so happy and encouraged! She is the sweetest soul. We talked like old friends on our first call, and from the second I walked in the door for my pictures I felt like true royalty. Danielle is the biggest hype (wo)man you’ll ever find! We talked while I got my hair and makeup done; everything from Hollywood to childhoods. The setup was gorgeous. I really appreciated that Danielle got in every pose for me to show me exactly how to do it. It showed me that she really goes the extra mile for all her clients. I loved the personal touches and the thoughtfulness that was put into each step of the process. Getting the pictures taken was my absolute favorite thing. I felt pampered and gorgeous. While posing, I was able to forget myself and my anxieties, and lose myself in the process. I felt like a goddess. Without saying a word about it, I knew that Danielle is all about body positivity and inclusiveness. She talked me up and showed pics here and there that showed just how beautiful I am. I feel like a new, better person because of my shoot. I won’t look at myself the same way again.

"The session felt like I was just hanging with a good friend, it was an absolute blast! Best thing I have ever done for myself, hands down!"

I love how comfortable and natural the session felt as this is not something I would have even thought to do before! I was so nervous about the whole idea of a boudoir session. I didn’t even own anything of the sort beforehand. So this entire concept was not in my comfort zone at all, but I am so glad I did it! Initially, I wanted to book a session as a gift to my husband which I am so excited to give him. However, it did become something for me as well to see myself in a different light, build up my confidence. Danielle was absolutely amazing! The session felt like I was just hanging with a good friend, it was an absolute blast! Best thing I have ever done for myself, hands down!

"I went into her studio nervous about the photo shoot and worried that I wouldn't like any photos of myself, but ended up feeling confident and comfortable by the end AND couldn't narrow down the photos I wanted without difficulty."

Danielle is absolutely amazing. I went into her studio nervous about the photo shoot and worried that I wouldn’t like any photos of myself, but ended up feeling confident and comfortable by the end AND couldn’t narrow down the photos I wanted without difficulty. She was able to capture my body in ways I haven’t seen in a while since having my babies and I’m very grateful for that. She found a great team to work with to do hair and makeup that boosts your confidence from the start. Then come time for the shoot, we started off with a more conservative outfit but by the end she had me feeling confident enough to step out of my comfort zone which ended up being my absolute favorite photos. She is very welcoming and makes you feel empowered and beautiful the entire way through. I highly recommend her, she’s great at what she does and you can truly tell it is her passion.

"I was dying to see the images, but I never imagined that they would be just that fucking hot!"

Oh, where to start! First off, Danielle is absolutely amazing! I snagged a session to fill in, but goodness it was like a week and a half between me being interested to literally show up at the studio. It was a fast process, but all throughout it Danielle was super professional and always on top of keeping me up to date with what was needed. Hair and makeup was gorgeous, Carina did such a good job! The photoshoot itself – God, I loved it!! I was dying to see the images, but I never imagined that they would be just that fucking hot! Thank you Danielle for capturing this for me!

"Overall, I recommend this experience highly to anyone interested in a fun, comfortable experience of feeling like a model for a day and getting a very large self esteem boost!"

I highly recommend to anyone interested in a boudoir session to contact Danielle! She did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable and making the experience so much fun! The photos from my session turned out absolutely amazing and I couldn’t be happier with them! My hair and makeup looked phenomenal (thanks to the professional hair and makeup artists you get when booking a session with Danielle), her client closet had so many options of things to wear, her studio was a total vibe and enhanced the sultry feel! Overall, I recommend her highly to anyone interested in a fun, comfortable experience of feeling like a model for a day and getting a very large self esteem boost!

"You won't be disappointed, I promise you that!"

Danielle is absolutely phenomenal to work with. She takes all the guess work out of all the questions you may have. Before your appt, she over communicates and answers ALL things you may have. She has the best hair & makeup gals, along with an outstanding wardrobe of items. She made me feel so comfortable & I’ve never felt so beautiful. Her turn around time is INSANELY quick and all the images were so tasteful & gorgeous!! Her studio is breathtaking with so many different options. You won’t be disappointed, I promise you that!

"10000/10 recommend booking boudoir with Simplicité Boudoir!!"

Danielle is INCREDIBLE!! I feel in love with her dark and moody style and just knew I had to book with her. Not only is she incredibly skilled with the camera, she truly is your #1 hype girl. I didn’t feel nervous at all and the fact that she included HMUA and even had a client closet full of sexy bodysuits for me to use was HUGE because it’s so hard to shop for lingerie, especially when most places are online shops and you can’t actually try things on. She knew exactly how to pose and guide me throughout the session and my photos came back gorgeous! And so quickly too! Her skills outta be experienced all around the world and I’m definitely thinking about planning a trip to Nashville just to book with her again! 10000/10 recommend booking boudoir with Simplicité Boudoir!!

"I promise doing this is the best gift you can give yourself."

Danielle made me feel like an absolute badass goddess! I honestly can’t believe this is me! My self love journey is just beginning! I literally shed a few tears because I have talked down to myself and hated my body for so long. Everyone should do a boudoir shoot if you get the chance! Put yourself first and re-fall in love with yourself! Danielle, you are a gem! I am so incredibly thankful for you! Danielle doesn’t even know how much these pictures mean to me and this experience of learning to love my plus size body – cellulite, rolls, stretch marks and all! I promise doing this is the best gift you can give yourself. Thank you Danielle for showing me that even in this season of my body just how badass my body actually is!

"I had been learning to love myself, but I could barely look at myself in the mirror. Now, I look at these photos and I see a woman who birthed 4 beautiful kids..."

I booked a boudoir session because I needed a boost to learn the love me again. I needed to find a way to try to rebuild that confidence. I had been a lurker in the VIP Facebook Group, but I absolutely loved Danielle’s style and the way she was so authentic as well. I was so nervous about chickening out and not doing the shoot, but the communication from Danielle and the guidance she gave me helped make that avoidable. I had been learning to love myself, but I could barely look at myself in the mirror. Now, I look at these photos and I see a woman who birthed 4 beautiful kids, battled cancer and abuse and overcame everything! My body proudly shows that! I am sure people thank Danielle all the time, but she honestly has no idea what this shoot has meant to me and how happy I am! I am so overjoyed and thankful for Danielle and this experience!

"I never really felt sexy and now I know I am capable of it!"

I wanted to book a boudoir photoshoot to gift to my soon-to-be husband on our wedding day! I was a bit worried about the “modeling” part because I felt like I never look as good in pictures as real life, but Danielle brought out my inner lioness! Before the photoshoot, I was pretty comfortable with myself. Of course, I have insecurities because who doesn’t? But I never really felt sexy and now I know I am capable of it! My experience during the shoot was so much fun! We just laughed and laughed, and she made me feel so beautiful and sexy and comfortable. I really loved how she would hype me up and show me some of the photos on the back of her camera so I could see how amazing I really did look! Although the pictures were arguably the best part of the photoshoot experience, meeting Danielle was my absolute favorite part! I so appreciate what she does for women everywhere! Honestly, it’s so nice to be a part of something that is so female-positive!

"Once I saw the images that changed my whole perspective of myself. I felt really pretty and sexy. And I haven't felt that way in a long time."

Danielle is AMAZING her hair and makeup team really knows what they are doing. I was extremely nervous to do this. As I was very self conscious, Danielle will give you all the instructions on how to pose. She will also make it fun by trying to lighten the mood. She was able to softly edit the images for me to pick from to add to my photo album, I can say I thought I looked bigger than what I was. Once I saw the softly edited images that changed my whole perspective of myself. I felt really pretty and sexy. And I haven’t felt that way in a long time. Please book with Danielle if you want a boudoir shoot. She is professional with an amazing personality.

"No matter how nervous you might be - Danielle is going to make you feel like you've been doing this your whole life."

I booked a boudoir session because I was ready for a confidence boost and it was also a gift for my husband for our anniversary! I found Danielle through Facebook and fell in love with her work. Danielle is incredible. I was pretty nervous about not knowing what I was doing and being un-coachable. However, I found this was not true at all – I was instantly at ease with Danielle’s professionalism and knowledge. Every step of the way I knew what was going on and what I needed to do. She is not only an amazing photographer, but she has a way of bringing out your most confident self. That no matter how nervous you might be – she’s going to make you feel like you’ve been doing this your whole life. She’s amazingly talented and is going to capture the most beautiful you.If you’re wondering “should I do boudoir?” the answer is yes and you should book with Danielle. Every part of the process is laid out for you – she will walk you through everything. It’s no joke when she says “she’ll even tell you how to breathe”. Do it. Book with Danielle.

"I have never felt more confident than when I did during my boudoir session."

I can’t even begin to tell you how incredible my experience was with Danielle. She made me feel so comfortable from the moment we first started talking to actually seeing my photos at the Reveal. She walked me through everything – what to wear and how to prepare my body (stretch, shaving, tanning, etc). She reached out regularly to make sure I was feeling confortable and didn’t have any questions and that was all before we even met! Day of, she made sure I was listening to the music I loved and liked to help me relax. She was goofy and outgoing. I have never felt more confident than when I did during my boudoir session. Danielle would get even more excited than I was sometimes! She shared bits of her personal self to make me feel less exposed and she just absolutely was incredible. I wanted to just be her friend after! The pictures came back in a ridiculously fast timeline and they are incredible. I refuse to believe that the girl in those pictures is me! She’s amazing and was able to capture all the thing that I wanted. Basically, I love you Danielle!

"I think my biggest fear was not liking how I looked in the final product. But I am obsessed with my final images!"

I wanted to book a boudoir maternity session to capture how my body has changed and adapted during my pregnancy. I’ve followed Danielle’s work and I have loved every session that she has shared. I think my biggest fear was not liking how I looked in the final product. I tend to be critical of myself and don’t usually like I how look in pictures. But I am obsessed with the end results! I love everything about my pictures! My self love journey has been just that, a journey. I’ve been working on accepting my body and all the changes it has gone through. It’s easy to want to hide my stretch marks and imperfections but my body has done incredible things and I wanted to celebrate it. That’s why I booked this session. Now after my session, I love the way Danielle captured me and I have zero regrets! Danielle makes the whole experience a treat. The atmosphere is inviting and calm, Danielle makes you feel comfortable, and the end results are amazing!

"Booking a boudoir session is totally worth it - you're worth it!"

Danielle was so sweet and professional. From the moment I arrived until the time I left, she made me feel very comfortable. This was my first time doing a boudoir shoot and I was ver nervous, maybe even borderline scared because of my insecurities with my body. All of that went right out the window once we got started! Danielle is the best hype woman ever!! She built up my confidence as well as my self esteem which made it easier for me to be relaces and enjoy every minute of the session. I never had to guess what it was the she wanted me to do or how to pose because she would literally show me herself. (And I mean, literally got down on the floor lol). She was always quick to respond whenever I had any questions and trust me, I had a lot of them! So, if you are thinking about booking a boudoir session, I am telling you Danielle is your girl! It is totally worth it – you’re worth it!

"The results are stunning! I would do this every day if I could!"

I had a boudoir session about a decade ago when I was small and a lot more insecure with my body. I liked the pictures done but didn’t really connect with them. I’m older now, a mom, and way more confident in my flawed skin than I ever was in my youth. The pictures that Danielle did were exquisite. I feel and look confident, domineering, and sexy in these photos. I liked the way Danielle puts herself out there and shows that she’s a real person behind the camera. She promotes body positivity at every turn. I also really enjoy the darker look she gives to her photos. The photoshoot was a blast! I had so much fun and it was so comfortable from the start. The studio was secluded and well partitioned from prying eyes. She offered snack and music, which is the way to my heart! She gave constant compliments during the shoot which really helped me set a mood with her. The results are stunning! I would do this every day if I could!

"I can't believe I completed a photoshoot like this and I am shocked I looked as amazing as I did!"

Danielle is amazing!! Danielle will have you as your most relaxed head space. After getting pampered, I was ready to get the session going and could barely feel any nervousness! We had lots of laughs and had some good chats too. I honestly have never seen the smiles that are in my pictures be so pretty and genuine before! I enjoyed talking with Danielle, she honestly will make you feel like one hot woman! She helped calm my nerves and made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. I can’t believe I completed a photoshoot like this and I am shocked I looked as amazing as I did! Danielle is for sure my forever boudoir photographer!!

– DESTINY –

"The end result was both beautiful, tasteful and made me fall in love with my body all over again!"

Working with Danielle was a dream! She was such a hype girl who wants you to feel absolutely beautiful and she nailed it! The end result was both beautiful, tasteful and made me fall in love with my body all over again! She legit gets the best out of you while making it so fun and relaxing and I want to do it all over again! It was just that dang good!

– VESNA –

"I felt beautiful, powerful, and more confident than I have in my entire life!"

Danielle made me feel so comfortable in my own skin and like I was an actual model! Honestly, nothing would have made the experience better! I truly loved working with Danielle! Even though I am not super comfortable in my skin after gaining some weight during COVID – I felt beautiful, powerful, and more confident than I have in my entire life!
