After waiting several months to commit to a boudoir photographer, I found Modern Muse (Allana). She is absolutely fantastic! You can tell she really has a passion for this and is extremely enthusiasti

Allana and Manda are a great team! I have no "vision", no idea what to expect, and this type of situation would normally be awkward for me. This was something I wanted to do for myself. They were empathic, geniune and really wanted me to have a great experince! Not once did I feel awkward.. It was better than a great experience! Thank you!

Had such a fun time with Manda and Allana! They transformed me into a pinup vixen!

My boudoir photoshoot with my partner, Kenny, and Allana was truly incredible. I knew that it was going to be fun, and different, and definitely confidence boosting. However I had no idea how inspiring, intimate, and therapeutic it would be. Allana was clearly in her zone the entire time - professional, friendly, encouraging and super supportive. And she has this very special quality where she immediately makes you feel at home, comfortable, and safe. Within several minutes I felt totally empowered to enjoy the experience, my body, and my partner's body in a very new, yet familiar way. She honestly helped me feel more at home in my own body than I have in awhile. And she did the same for my partner. Both of us felt like we walked in totally normal, and walked out taller, more confident, more in touch with our sexy and primal side, and more connected to each other. Not only was it empowering and inspiring, but it was extremely sensual! Something I feel is missed in our every day lives. And not just in ours, but in most peoples. In our busy every day hustle and bustle it doesn’t feel like there’s a lot of room or time for sensuality. But our session with Allana was all about it. It felt in some ways like our very first date! Not only do I suggest working with Allana with your partner, but definitely on your own! She isn’t just good for couples, she is amazing for individual sessions as well! In fact I did a session years ago by myself that also drastically helped me improve my self-esteem and my body image. And I haven’t even gotten to the photos! Because honestly so much of what is special about Allana is the process and the experience. That’s one of the things I love most about working with her, she isn't just focused on the end of the journey. She is even more so focused on savoring every moment of it. Don’t worry though, the photos are sexy magic captured in time. Seriously she is that good! So not only is it an incredible experience that you will remember forever, and look back on with deep appreciation, but you will also have stunning photographs to showcase your beauty and uniqueness. If you are considering working with Allana don’t hesitate. Reach out and connect with her, and you will see how amazing she is as a human being and how talented and special she is as a photographer. And let her know I sent you!😉

My experience was incredible. Allana and her team are so professional and know how to make you look and feel beautiful and incredible. This is something every one should do for herself and Modern Muse make this about more just pretty picture it is about shifting how you view yourself. I am so grateful to have found and worked with these amazing humans.

Allana is amazing at what she does! I’ve always wanted to do a boudoir shoot and she made it fun, comfortable and easy. From the first phone call she was invested in my experience and my hopes of what I wanted this to be. Her photos are amazing, I can’t wait to see the rest of them! Her makeup artist Manda was great too! I felt confident, sexy but with my level of comfort with make up. Go book your shoot now!

I never in a million years thought I'd ever be comfortable with the idea of doing boudoir portraits, but a year and a half of subsuming everything to managing remote school and other pandemic needs for my kids had me wanting to do something just for me, that reconnected me with who I am as a person separate from just being a mom. Allana and her team (the stylist and make-up artist she works with, too!!) made the whole process really easy and comfortable, and the shoot itself was a lot of fun. I absolutely love my final images, and they feel very ME -- a good reminder to have around when I forget in the day-to-day chaos who that is. I *highly* recommend Allana if you're considering boudoir portraits.

Every woman should do this. And if they are lucky enough to get it done with Allana and Manda, then they should be thrilled. I reached out to in September, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and was told that due to the extent of the cancer, I would have to have a mastectomy. Understandably, I was devastated by this news and for a long time kind of in denial. As the end of chemotherapy and my surgery date drew closer, I started to really begin to mourn my body as it is now. I wanted to commemorate it. I reached out to Allana to inquire about doing a shoot and from the first email she could not have been warmer, she could not have made me feel more empowered, or encouraged, or beautiful. I had my shoot last week, Manda did my makeup and styled my wig, and OMG, wow is all I can say. She's incredible. Then came the fun part...the actual shoot. I was a little nervous going in, thought I'd feel awkward or that the poses would be unnatural and I would be stiff. Not the case, Allana knows her stuff, she gets the amazing angles, makes you look like a queen, and makes the experience so fun. I really never expected to have as much fun as I did. I'm still smiling about it. Thank you Allana and thank you Manda!

I had such a blast working with Allana for my session! She creates such a warm and inviting environment in her studio and makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. Whether you’re keeping these photos for yourself or sharing them with someone else Allana knows exactly how to make your inner and outer beauty shine! Allana creates absolutely amazing photos that I guarantee you’ll fall in love with the moment you see them! If you’re on the fence about doing a boudoir session, 100% do it!
