Black Cat, Portland, Oregon Restaurant Details

Food:

I loved my experience with Elaine at BlackCat Boudoir. This was my first time getting professional photos and she calmed my nerves, and made me feel laugh and feel comfortable. The studio space is lovely and Elaine was so easy and fun to work with. I ordered a photo book from her, and it arrived faster than expected and turned out beautifully!

Food:

My session with Elaine was great, I had never had any experience in front of the camera, and she was very knowledgable in what would work best for me as well as making sure that my shoot was totally unique. I would recommend Elaine to anyone who wants something for themselves that they can treasure forever! She's a very sweet, and comfortable person to be around, definitely someone worth getting to know. Very classy, sexy, and fun!

Elaine was awesome! From start to finish, it was a wonderful process. She contacted me several times before the shoot, reminding me what to bring and wear which was helpful for someone who had not done a boudoir shoot before. Her studio is in a quiet neighborhood so parking is easy to find (and free!). Elaine's studio is great; lots of backdrops and examples of her work so you know what you're getting into. I felt very comfortable there and Elaine is so helpful, telling you how to position your body for the sexiest and most flattering shots. She has some little accessories so if you aren't a boudoir aficionado with all the bells and whistles, she's got you covered. I really loved the process of getting hair and make up done by a professional. It's amazing the difference it has on your perception of yourself as compared to doing your own hair and make up. The images I received were beautiful-they captured the most ideal version of myself and my significant other thought they were amazing. I felt like a Victoria's Secret model! I would recommend it to any lady who wants some wonderful pictures for herself or someone else, who wants to try something adventurous, or who just wants a confidence boost.

Had a fabulous time working with Michele and Elaine! Michele did my makeup and hair and I absolutely loved the way it looked. And the photos came out better than I imagined. I felt super comfortable and relaxed, and it was a very fun experience. They are definitely professionals and Elaine will get you the photos you want! You won't be disappointed.
