Amazing photos start with professional makeup application and hair styling, which is why it is included with every session! I have scoured Seattle to create a very short list of the most talented artists. Below you can meet Nikoma and Erin — two of my absolute favorite artists and each are regulars at my studio. These women are incredibly warm and friendly, fun to be around, and create the most stunning boudoir looks from soft/natural to dramatic/edgy and everything in between.

Meet Nikoma

“When I began as a makeup and hairstylist 13 years ago, my passion was solely for the artistry. I would practice day and night in order to perfect the smokey eye, beachy waves, and precisely defined red lips. Nothing made me happier than a finger wave and flawless dewy skin.

Although I still have an intense connection to the artistry, my passion has shifted to the connections that I make with each of the clients that I come in contact with. I pride myself on helping to draw out the inner beauty in each woman that sits across me.

As women, we give so much of ourselves to everything and everyone around us: our partners, children, jobs, etc. while this is one of the most beautiful things about women, it also causes us to put our desires on the back burner. I love Boudoir because it is a day of pampering that every woman deserves and a reminder that we are beautiful and sexual beings. Participating in a Boudoir shoot is one of the most empowering things a woman can do and I am truly honored to be a part of it. I’m looking forward to seeing you at Belle Boudoir and helping YOU find your inner sex-kitten.”
