Meet The Seattle Boudoir Team

Just let the Creative Capricorns handle the details.

Owner & Photographer
Hi, I’m Nerissa—the redhead with a camera in hand, dance in my heart, and at least two fantasy novels on my nightstand.
I’ve always had a rebellious streak, the kind that refuses to take “no” for an answer and constantly asks, “but why?” Turns out — that’s my superpower.
It’s what fuels my art and my passion for helping others break free from systems that try to keep us small and disconnected from ourselves.
Boudoir photography is more than just beautiful photos. It’s a way to choose your own path, to rewrite the narrative, and see yourself through a lens that celebrates every part of you—just as you are. I’ve experienced the magic of stepping in front of the camera, and it’s a joy to help others do the same.
Together, we’ll create images that feel like an authentic reflection of your power, your beauty, and your story—because life’s too short to live by anyone else’s rules.

Makeup Artist & Hair Stylist

I feel incredibly lucky to work with Katy—an artist whose talent goes far beyond makeup. With over eight years of experience, she’s not just a makeup genius; she’s a compassionate soul with a gift for making people feel seen and celebrated.

Originally from Panama and adopted as a child, Katy carries a world of wisdom and empathy into her work. Outside of makeup, she’s a wonderful mother, and a gymnastics coach—balancing strength, grace, and determination both on and off the mat.

Katy truly shines with our Boudoir clients. It’s a joy to watch her connect with clients, listen to their stories, and bring their vision to life. With Katy, it’s not just about makeup—it’s about self-expression and feeling amazing!

Please enjoy several of my favorite images from my own Boudoir sessions done throughout the years.

I’ve booked Boudoir sessions to give as a gift to my partner, to celebrate milestones,
and to document my connection with my lover and her best friend.
