“Will my skin look good on camera?”.

Something that comes up quickly with Asian boudoir clients is a concern that photographers won’t be able to show the natural beauty of their skin tone.

I photograph women with all skin types and treat skin very sensitively both on the photoshoot and in editing. So, I can say that yes, your skin will look good on camera and I hope these images showcase that for you.

I also offer multiple lighting styles for boudoir. I have found that different lighting speaks to people differently. You can feel powerful in one lighting style, but not in another.

You can even pick more than one style for your boudoir shoot to show different sides of your personality. Your collection of images will become a story reflecting the complexity and nuances of you.

"I saved the pictures in my phone and they have become my daily anchor now."

“Coming from a traditional East Asian family, my relationship with my body was full of shame and complicated. However, Siorna and the makeup artist Lillie managed to make me feel so relaxed and fabulous during the whole process. They are attentive, considerate and amazingly talented. I followed my own heart, and moved with the music, and the result is amazing! I saved the pictures in my phone and they have become my daily anchor now. Thank you Siorna!

What Asian Boudoir styles do you offer?

The Painterly Style

My painterly boudoir style, ‘Ravishing Renaissance,’ is a client favourite for those who lean toward a romantic, timeless aesthetic. This look beautifully captures the elegance and softness of classic European art, with rich, flowing drapery and soft lighting that mimics the texture and depth of an old-world painting.

It’s a versatile look that suits all skin tones, bringing out the natural beauty of each individual while echoing the warmth and richness found in Renaissance portraits. The result is a boudoir photograph that feels more like a masterpiece—both intimate and artistic.

Dark & Sultry

Asian boudoir takes on an extraordinary allure when paired with my dark and sultry style. This lighting technique is designed to accentuate your favourite features by playing with light and shadow, creating an artistic and sophisticated look that’s uniquely yours.

Whether you choose a soft silhouette to delicately outline your body or opt for backlighting that shines from behind to create an ethereal glow, the effect is always breathtaking.

This style beautifully complements Asian skin tones, bringing out the richness and warmth of your complexion, and allowing the interplay of light and shadow to highlight your features in a truly captivating way.

Bombshell Black and White

Asian skin looks absolutely striking in my timeless black-and-white “Bombshell” photography style.

This classic approach is all about focusing on the beauty of form and connection, stripping away distractions so that your natural grace shines through.

Uniquely You

I love it when clients share their vision with me, and one request I often get with asian boudoir is for natural sunlight.

Asian boudoir photography takes on a truly magical quality when we introduce the soft glow of window light. In the studio, I replicate the warmth of morning sunlight using carefully placed lights, allowing us to create that dreamy, ‘just got out of bed in the warm sunlight’ vibe—without worrying about the unpredictable British weather!

Since we can’t always count on a perfect 7 am sunrise, my studio lighting offers the flexibility to achieve this look no matter the time of day. Whether it’s the soft, golden hues of early morning or a brighter midday glow, the effect is intimate, natural, and perfectly suited to your boudoir session.

"She helped me feel confident and beautiful."

“I’m so happy I went with Siorna. Not only is she extremely talented at what she does, but she’s such a warm, welcoming presence. Siorna calmed my nerves and was super accommodating to my requests and most importantly, she helped me feel confident and beautiful. I’m grateful for both a set of gorgeous photos and a new friend!”

Do you help with Asian Boudoir wardrobe?

When it comes to wardrobe, choosing pieces that complement both your skin tone and personal style is key to creating stunning boudoir photographs. Rich, vibrant colours like deep reds, emerald greens, and royal blues beautifully enhance Asian skin tones, bringing out a warmth and radiance that elevates the overall look of the shoot.

These bold colours add visual appeal but also help set the mood, adding depth and emotion to each photograph. Incorporating elements of traditional attire can further personalize your photos, infusing them with cultural significance and making the experience even more meaningful and unique to you.

I’ve designed this boudoir experience to ensure you feel completely comfortable even before stepping into the studio. During our video Style Consult, we’ll discuss everything—styles, colours, wardrobe, and even props—so you know exactly what to expect on your special day.

Having these conversations ahead of time helps ease any nerves, allowing you to relax into the photoshoot much faster. And, of course, the complimentary sparkling wine never hurts!

Additionally, I offer a video chat before you even book. This is a chance for us to meet, for you to ask any questions, and to ensure you feel fully at ease before committing. It’s the perfect moment to address any concerns and make sure you’re ready to enjoy the experience to the fullest.
