boudoir photography washington state
Born and raised in Washington State, I know the Pacific Northwest like the back of my hand. As a luxury boudoir photographer, my mission is simple: to reach as many women as I can and show them just how incredible they already are. This experience is about so much more than beautiful photos - it's a chance to see yourself through the eyes of those who love you, and to truly reconnect with the woman you are.
Since founding Boudoir Photography by Amber Carl in 2020, I've had the privilege of photographing countless women and couples, each experience as unique as the person in front of the lens. The greatest compliment I receive is how comfortable my clients feel with me. This is an intimate journey, and my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can let your true self shine.
Take a look at my work and reach out - I'd love to help you experience the confidence and self love you deserve.

A 50% retainer is required to reserve your session date and time. This is due within 24 hours of my emailing you an invoice. If this is not paid within 24 hours then your session date and time will be offered to someone else. The remainder is due on your session date. You can set up a payment plan for your retainer and/or your final payment which allows you to make four equal payments every two weeks.
You'll receive emails from me leading up to your session to best help you prepare. Complete with questionnaires, style guides for what to wear, what's included in my client closet if you'll be using it, and much more!
Arrive to the studio at your scheduled time to begin hair and makeup if you have chose to add that on and really get ready for your session! This is such a great way to help you relax and be in the moment.

where is your studio located?
Many women prefer to bring their own outfits and if you are one of them I will help you leading up to your session in deciding what to bring.
I also have an extensive client closet complete with many different styles and sizes. You can view what's available on my Pinterest Board.
do I provide my own outfits?

Yes I do! You can choose to pay for your session in full up front. Or I offer the option to make 4 equal payments every two weeks. Once you receive your invoice you will see the option to pay with Afterpay. Just choose that option and that payment plan will be set up for you.
Do you offer payment plans?
I work directly with a professional hair & makeup artist. Her services can be added onto your boudoir session experience and you can pay her directly on the day of your session at my Grays Harbor Studio only. The fee for hair & makeup is $175.
If you wish you can absolutely use your own hair and makeup artist prior to coming in for your session or do your own.
do you provide a stylist for hair & makeup? can i do my own?
Yes you can! If having someone there will help you feel more comfortable then that's perfectly fine. It's always great to have someone else there to cheer you on! Just let me know ahead of time if you plan on bringing someone and one person is best.
can I bring my partner or friend with me to my session?
You want to be sure to book your session well in advance so we can be sure the studio and my hair and makeup artist are all available for you.

Hey there - I get it.
As a mom, wife, and business owner, I know how easy it is to lose ourselves in the many roles we play. There's nothing wrong with pouring ourselves into what we do, but sometimes we need a reminder of who we are as women. Over time, I've learned that when I choose to put myself first and do something just for me, I show up better for everyone else too. Since starting Boudoir Photography by Amber Carl in 2020 I've had the privilege of seeing women walk into my studio feeling uncertain, sometimes a little hesitant, and watching them leave transformed from the inside out. That's what I'm here for! I love helping women step into their power - and maybe now is your time to do just that!

Anything with a back arch! It creates such a beautiful image. Can I do it myself? Nope! My back just doesn't arch!

A Few of my Favorite Things
Can a boudoir session really change your life?
Maybe.
One thing it can do for sure is set you in the direction of a self love journey that you never thought possible.
I know how you feel, I've been there. Your body is one way and then you grow a beautiful little human inside of you and although it's still beautiful it's not what you're used to. You're having a hard time embracing the new you in this season of your life.
Or maybe you went through something incredibly painful like a divorce or loss of a friend. Things like this can transform us and sometimes in these situations it's incredibly difficult to put ourselves first.
Women come into my studio and leave transformed from the inside out. It's not the hair and makeup or the lingerie, although those things help you FEEL amazing. What really starts to change over the course of your boudoir session with me is how YOU see yourself.
I'll show you images on the back of my camera throughout your shoot and you'll feel this feeling that you maybe have never felt before. Embrace it babe, it's self love! And you're so deserving of it!
Start to see yourself through the eyes of those who love you. Start to believe the wonderful compliments that your partner and friends tell you every day.
Start to see you for you and appreciate all the little things that make up your beautiful body!
Because after all, your body tells a story. Let's make sure it's one you never want to put down.
That my friend is the why behind why I do what I do. My mission is to empower women to reconnect with their strength, beauty, and sense of self.

Whether in front of the camera or in the heart of an inspiring destination, I am here to help you see yourself with love, confidence, and clarity. I love seeing that transformation and watching women get to that place of self love through something I provided for them.

Did you know I host transformative women's retreats three times a year in Hawaii and other breathtaking destinations? I bring together a small group of 5-6 women for an unforgettable journey where we stay in a beautiful villa, enjoy day trips to explore the local sights, experience self love workshops, and capture gorgeous photo sessions. Whether we're swimming in the sea or growing our confidence from within, each retreat is about reconnecting with yourself, creating memories with like minded women, and sharing an experience like no other.
