Boudoir Photographer for Birmingham and The West Midlands

Worth the journey

You could book a studio round the corner. Be aware of cars and people just outside the door. Or you could drive into the Welsh countryside, spend a day being looked after in a private barn by the river, and come home feeling like a different woman. This page is for the second kind.

A day or why not make a stay of it?

At around an hour and three-quarters from Birmingham, The Cowshed is a destination rather than a quick trip. Many West Midlands clients turn it into a weekend away, arriving the night before, having their session the next day, and exploring Usk, Monmouth or the Wye Valley afterwards.

It’s ideal for a milestone birthday, a pre-wedding treat or a well-earned reset. The kind of thing you’ll talk about for years.

There are plenty of accommodation options and I am happy to recommend. For an extra special treat, why not look at staying at Llancayo Windmill itself, just a short stroll away?

Milestones worth marking

Forty, fifty, sixty and beyond. Some of my favourite sessions are with women who thought boudoir “wasn’t for someone my age”. I photograph women from 18 to 110, and I know how to light and pose real bodies so you look and feel wonderful.

Bridal boudoir for yourself or to create a special gift for your partner. The reasons are endless and who needs a reason anyway?!

Your experience

Luxe Goddess (£895, or £995 with make-up): up to three and a half hours, up to four outfits, robe and slippers, fizz and a grazing board, a cinematic reveal and a 10″×10″ album.

Ultimate Goddess (£1,495): everything in Luxe plus make-up, your full gallery and a mini session for a friend. Bring her along and make it a girls’ weekend.

We’ll plan everything by phone or video beforehand, so the only journey you make is the one for your shoot.

Questions from Birmingham and West Midlands clients

Is it really worth nearly two hours’ drive?
If you just want quick photos, probably not. If you want an unhurried, private, beautifully looked-after experience, clients say it’s the best part.

Can you recommend somewhere to stay?
Yes. Message me and I’ll share my favourites in and around Usk.

Can I view my images without coming back?
Ask me about online viewing when we plan your session.
