I’ve been lucky enough to have had some fab boudoir photography reviews over the years. The press reviews emphasise the confidence-boosting experience clients have had, here at FYEO.
Publications like The Telegraph Business Club and Reuters News note my healing work as a boudoir photographer while features in BBC One and CBS The Insider commend the transformative impact of the photoshoots on women’s self-esteem and relationships.
Alesha Dixon highlights FYEO’s ability to offer ordinary women a taste of glamorous photoshoots, significantly boosting their confidence.

Phillip Smith notes FYEO’s growing worldwide reputation and successful business model, emphasizing the empowering nature of boudoir photography.
Reuters remarks on the business potential of FYEO, acknowledging its rapid growth and the empowering experience it offers to women.
CBS The Insider points out the increasing popularity of couples cherishing seductive poses from their early days of love, captured by FYEO.
In 2006, Wedding Professional highlighted the trend of brides having sultry portraits taken as wedding gifts for their husbands.











🥰 One of my favourite couples boudoir shoots has to be with Gemma & David. 💫
I first met David & Gemma a few years ago when David surprised Gemma with a surprise boudoir shoot with me for her 40th birthday — complete with big rose gold “40” helium balloons (the balloons were his idea — and thanks to him, they’ve been a studio staple ever since!) 🎈💋
Fast forward to 2023… and they returned to celebrate their wedding anniversary with me, this time for a couples boudoir experience.
While Gemma was in makeup, we chatted about life, love, and ideas for the shoot. After makeup was finished, we got cracking with the shoot and created an artistic mix of romantic body portraits, music playing and my signature studio lighting flashing to the trigger of my camera. It was fun!! ✨
After the shoot I sent David and Gemma a link to their preview gallery… Honestly — it’s something we’re all proud of.
What touched me most was when Gemma & David said they wanted to share their photos publicly. As many of you know, I never share private work unless clients explicitly ask — so this was such a rare and wonderful gift. 💞
Here’s what Gemma had to say:
“This is my second time visiting Alex — my first was for my 40th, and this time a couples shoot for our 15th wedding anniversary. What an amazing experience. Alex made us both feel so relaxed and confident. We’re thrilled with how she captured our love and intimacy. Can’t wait to return again to celebrate another milestone.”
Gemma & David — thank you for trusting me, twice. I absolutely can’t wait to welcome you back to the studio. I’m so proud of the gorgeous portraits that we have created of the two of you, such a gorgeous couple.
With love,
Alexandra xx

3am. I lie completely still — gripping the covers, fists tight, tension in my neck and jaw, eyes wide open. Adrenaline rushes through me; I feel connected to every fizzing molecule.
I thought I’d already done the hard work of life — the heartbreaks. I figured I’d earned a rest from self-discovery. But here I am, at 52, learning more about myself in my coffin of anger.
Simon. I’m so cross with you.
My brother died last year, age 52, of alcoholism. The trauma is hard to bear.
My beloved nephew — Simon’s son — has lost his dad. 🥹 That child has a right to know his father’s people.
So here I am, awake at 3am, my mind spinning with angry grief.
I know I’m not alone. We all have those moments of 3am anxiety, right?
I’ve realised my deep emotions don’t like the light; they wake me up, tormenting me. My anger is like a coat — heavy and wet from a storm — I long to hang it up to dry.
Anger disguises itself as control, silence, self-criticism. I bury it, but it rises again — in my words, reactions, the strain on my body.
Listen. Learn.
So I listen. And in that quiet, resilient space.
If you’re awake at 3am, buzzing with anger or grief, don’t rush to silence it.
Listen. Let it move through you.
We can use that energy to grow stronger — not in muscle, but in mindset. When we stop running and really listen, there’s power there.
I’ve decided to use that power to
Love more fiercely.
Feel more connected to my body.
Growth doesn’t happen in the light. It happens in the lonely, uncomfortable dark at 3am — the place we become who we’re meant to be.
Let’s turn anger into energy for good.
Are you a 3-amer? How do you cope?

🥰 This is what I do for my brides… I help them create a secret collection of sassy portraits for the groom.
➡️ The idea is to give the groom photos throughout the day of the Bride, for his eyes only.
🤗 Bride-2-Be, come and see me at the studio around eight weeks before your wedding day to create a collection of cheeky portraits. 📸
It’s such a fun thing for you to do and makes you feel amazing and more body confident!
If you love this idea and you’d like to do this send me a message I’d love to help you create your photos.

⭐️ Boudoir Photography Transformation Story: Kirsty ⭐️
Kirsty’s photoshoot journey is one of the most beautiful chapters in my book The Queen of Boudoir (available now on Amazon 📖✨).
This shoot wasn’t just about photos—it was about self-discovery, confidence, and love. Her husband gifted her the session with a heartfelt wish: that Kirsty could finally see herself the way he sees her… radiant, powerful, and absolutely beautiful. 💕
At first, Kirsty was nervous (as so many women are before stepping in front of the camera). But as the shoot unfolded, something magical happened—she began to let go, to laugh, to celebrate herself. What started with hesitation turned into an experience that she described as fun, liberating, and life-changing.
From sultry lingerie sets to timeless nudes, and even a striking pair of black Louboutins 👠, Kirsty embraced every side of herself with courage and elegance. Her story is a reminder that boudoir photography isn’t just about images—it’s about transformation, empowerment, and seeing your true beauty reflected back at you.
🎥 You can watch Kirsty’s full story here: https://youtu.be/qiFwjhV2UdY?si=jUD_fGwYbm7QSmac
✨ To every woman reading this: you are worthy of celebrating yourself. Sometimes all it takes is a little nudge, a spark, or a moment of courage to rediscover the goddess within.

🎈 40th Birthday Boudoir Photoshoot Balloons 🎈
Birthday balloons are such a fun, playful accessory to add to your boudoir photoshoot — especially when you’re celebrating something major like your 40th / 50th / 60th /70th! birthday.
I’ve created a full series of flattering poses with balloons: standing, kneeling, sitting, even lying down — where you can either hold your balloons with pride or let them float around you while we wrap your body into the most beautiful shapes.
It’s creative, sensual, and so much fun. ✨
My personal favourite?
Rose gold balloons.
They pair beautifully with my artistic, backlit studio lighting and add a stunning glow to your skin, whether you’re in lingerie, a body harness, or nothing at all.
The light catches the foil and creates this dreamy shimmer that flatters every curve. Trust me, the results are 🔥.
I first started using balloons in shoots a few years ago when a client’s husband, David, added them to his wife Gemma’s session as a surprise.
When the balloons arrived, Gemma was over the moon — and honestly, so was I!
We spent the shoot experimenting with artistic body shots: sometimes Gemma nude, sometimes draped in delicate lingerie, always powerful, always beautiful.
Since then, I’ve encouraged my birthday clients to bring balloons to accessorise their birthday boudoir shoots.
It’s become a bit of a signature look — a mix of celebration, sensuality, and art.
One of my favourite shoots ever was a “body oil & balloons” session — the balloon colour rubbed off onto my client’s skin and it looked like body paint!🎨
So, would YOU add birthday balloons to your boudoir photoshoot? Are you celebrating a milestone birthday like your 40th or 50th or 60th and want to mark the moment by honouring your body with a beautiful, sensual portrait experience?
Let me know below or DM me — I’d love to help you plan your dream birthday boudoir session. 🖤

🥰 “These pictures are from my 3rd boudoir shoot at FYEO Portraits. I have to say, every time I step in front of the camera, I feel a little more me.”
“Today I wore my favourite sparkly shoes, a crisp white shirt, and carried with me a story that isn’t always easy to tell.”
“In 2019, I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis. Since then, I’ve had four surgeries. Four times I’ve gone under the knife, four times I’ve had to piece myself back together. These scars—both the ones you can see and the ones you can’t—mark chapters of resilience that I never imagined I’d have to live through.”
“My body is different now. It looks different, it feels different. But through all the pain, the recoveries, the ups and downs, I’ve grown stronger. I’ve learned to advocate for myself in ways I never thought I could.”
“And yet… if I’m honest, the last couple of years I felt like I lost something. My spark. My mojo. That part of me that lit up rooms and laughed too loud and dreamed big. Maybe you know that feeling—the quiet slip of losing touch with yourself while you’re just trying to survive.”
“That’s why today mattered so much. This shoot was about showing up for myself.”
“Stronger now.” Jodie 🦋
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost your shine, I hope you know it can come back. Maybe not all at once, maybe not in the same way—but with patience, courage, and a little bit of sparkle, it can return.
Here’s to healing, to rediscovery, and to never giving up on the version of ourselves we still dream of becoming. 💫

I’ve had a shift in mindset…
⠀
For years, I believed my body was mine. That it belonged to me — something I had full control over. We say, “My body, my choice.” And those words do matter.
⠀
But now… I see something deeper.
⠀
I don’t think I own my body anymore.
⠀
I think I’m its caretaker. A steward. My body isn’t a possession — it’s a vessel for something much bigger:
⠀
Love.
⠀
When I care for my body now, it’s not about vanity or selfishness. It’s about staying strong for the people who rely on me.
⠀
As a mum, my body has created, carried, and supported life.
⠀
As a business owner — especially as a boudoir photographer — my body is the tool I use to serve others. It lifts, moves, creates, comforts, and welcomes.
⠀
As a partner, my body connects me to love, intimacy, and shared joy.
⠀
As a daughter, my body helps me care for my aging parents.
⠀
My body is how I show up.
For work. For love. For life.
⠀
So no — I don’t think my body is mine anymore.
⠀
My body is owned by Love.
⠀
By the love I give.
The love I receive.
The love that moves through my family, my relationships, my purpose.
⠀
This isn’t about sacrifice — it’s about meaning.
It’s about seeing the body not as something we own, but something we honor.
⠀
A sacred vessel.
A gift.
⠀
❤️My body belongs to Love.
⠀
What do you think? Let’s start a conversation.

Every January feels like a reset for me, ✨ does it feel the same for you?
A chance to reprogram my mind.
Begin again. 🌱
Heres’s what I was thinking on my run today…
I remembered how I started my photography business, fresh out of university.
Full of belief 📷 I was fearless, I had no doubt!
I grew my business FYEO Portraits
And became a mum at the same time. 🤍
I don’t know why but I hid the juggling…
Trying to look like I had it all together I guess.
Then life changed.
My second child was my gorgeous daughter was born with a cleft lip and palate.
Hospitals replaced normality.
My then husband and I felt differently about the news.
Resentment crept in
And eventually we got divorced.
I felt ashamed.
Like I was letting everyone down
Then another chapter,during my divorce
my lovely son was diagnosed with a pituitary tumour at 18.
Life asked even more of me. Sometimes I still wonder why.
At one point I ran studios across the UK…
Big teams, big turnover, national advertising.
After divorce I chose something different
To reshape
Refocus
Reframe
Nowadays I work from my specialist studio near Marlow.
With incredible women.
Women rebuilding themselves.
Just like I did 🌸 just like you?
I’m happier than I’ve ever been
With my children, now in their twenties.
And my new husband!
I share this because Instagram can look shiny, can’t it?
But real life is layered.
Messy!
Still beautiful ✨
If you’re ready to stop doubting yourself
and reconnect with your inner GODDESS
I’m here for you.🤍

✨ Would you strip off for more body confidence? ✨
Meet Callie, who said this after her shoot:
“It’s a great thing to do for you — self-care, self-love, self-confidence — everyone should do it!” 💖
Because when we build our body confidence, it’s never just about your body — it’s about how we show up in every part of life.
💭 Imagine…
— Feeling truly comfortable in your own skin — every day.
— Bringing that deep-down confidence into your relationships (yes, even in the bedroom 😉).
— Owning your presence at work — from the meeting room to the boardroom.
After all, our bodies are our life vehicles — they carry us through everything we do. 🚀
So tell me…
👉 Would you ever strip off for more confidence?
👉 How do you think it would change the way you see yourself — and your life?
Let me know!

3️⃣ Lift through your ribcage, push one shoulder forward, lift your chin, and shake that gorgeous hair out!
Pose Two
1️⃣ Plant your feet wide, legs strong
2️⃣ Reach both arms high to the sky
3️⃣ Chin up, eyes up, and don’t forget to smile 🌟
Pose Three
1️⃣ Turn around with feet together, bend one knee
2️⃣ Place one hand on your chest, one on your hip
3️⃣ Squeeze your elbows back, glance over your shoulder
4️⃣ In the mirror say: “Damn, I love YOU!” 💕
Take a moment to feel how powerful, radiant, and worthy you are—because you are! ✨
Have a beautiful day, and remember to love your body exactly as it is.
With love,
Alexandra x 💫 #fyeoportraits #marlow #boudoir #poses #loveyourself #selflove❤️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️What SHOCKS people most when they see themselves in a body-paint photoshoot with me?
🚀 It’s how quickly they stop judging themselves and start seeing their bodies with appreciation, softness, and pride.
Why is it so powerful to view your body as a work of art?
➡️ Because it helps you embrace your uniqueness, honour your journey, and recognise the beauty in individuality.
What makes my body-art boudoir studio experience so different from a typical boudoir photoshoot?
Aside from the fun of getting messy… it’s the way the body paint and artistic process shift your mindset. You begin to see your body’s shapes, colours, and contours as pure art, like stepping into your own painting.
How do my body-sculpted poses help you see yourself differently?
➡️ They reveal how your body moves into powerful, expressive shapes that highlight the full dynamics within us all: strength, softness, curves, often in ways you’ve never witnessed before.
What does my boudoir lighting teach you about your body?
➡️ My studio lighting helps you understand how light transforms the way you perceive your own form, allowing you to see yourself with fresh eyes.
Are you ready to transform how you see your body with my body-art photoshoot?
➡️ If you’re ready to see yourself as the masterpiece you already are… let’s get you booked in.

P.s. HUGE Thanks to the very gorgeous Michelle ❤️ for featuring in the reel. Xxx

⭐️📸 Have you ever worried your body isn’t “enough”?
I get it.
I’ve been there too. Breakups, menopause, weight changes, ageing… life takes us through so many seasons doesn’t it?
🌷Or maybe you’re getting married and suddenly feeling the pressure to love the body you’re bringing into this new chapter but all you feel is uncertainty about your body.🙃
My photoshoots are designed to change the way you see yourself.
I’ll guide you into shapes that flatter your body and show you how your curves, lines, and angles catch the light in beautiful, stunning ways.
Most women say the same thing when they see the pictures I take of their bodies:
“I didn’t know my body could look like that.”
In one studio session, you’ll go from feeling lost… to feeling like a lioness!
Just like these incredible women did:
✨ “Alex is a very talented artist… creative, skilled, and so warm. The session felt like being with a friend. Can’t rate her highly enough.” Carole
✨ “She’s so incredible at her job. The confidence you get is just amazing.” Trinity
✨ “A wonderful confidence-boosting experience. Out of my comfort zone at 61, Alex made me feel special and glamorous! A powerful celebration of the body at any age, shape or size.” Jo
✨ “An absolutely fantastic personal gift for the man who has everything! Alex made me feel wonderful!” Jackie

In 2023, I did something that scared the absolute life out of me —
I self-published my own boudoir photography book.
To this day, it’s the work I’m most proud of.
But I’ve never really shared what it actually meant to make it happen — or how much it changed me.
At the time, I had zero confidence in my career. Everything felt uncertain.
After Covid — and a lot of personal change — my creative path had taken a complete handbrake turn.
I needed to pause, to reflect, to figure out where I’d come from and what my art had become.
That reflection turned into ‘The Queen of Boudoir’.
Launch day.
I opened the first box of books from the printer with shaking hands… and cried.
Happy tears. Grateful tears. Relief. Pride.
Because I knew exactly what it had cost me to get there.
Years, decades of work.
Months of 5 a.m. starts.
Thousands of photo edits.
Laying out the entire book myself — in design software I’d never touched before.
And then there was navigating Amazon’s publishing hurdles for a global eBook — a tedious, stressful nightmare that nearly broke me! 😅
But I was determined, because I had a dream.
Looking back now, I’m proud for taking that wild, terrifying leap of faith —
for believing so fiercely in something no one else could see yet.
‘THE QUEEN OF BOUDOIR’ changed everything for me.
It wasn’t just a creative project.
It gave me something far more powerful:
Confidence.
Confidence to stand on my own as an independent artist.
No publisher. No gallery. No middlemen.
Just me — connecting directly with my tribe.
If you’re an artist feeling disheartened right now, please hear me:
We are living in a time where you have the power.
You don’t need permission.
You can build your own audience, your own path, your own legacy.
Take risks on yourself.
They do pay off.
📣Friends, I only have 8 printed copies of The Queen of Boudoir left.
Once they’re gone — that’s it. No reprints.
If you’d like one of the final signed copies (UK only) 💌
👉 DM me now — first come, first served.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for supporting me & believing in my art.

❌ Don’t let your brand whisper when it’s meant to command the room.
🚀Clients come to me for confidence-boosting photoshoots and it’s not always boudoir.
Sometimes it’s my powerful SUIT SHOOT.
Like Chang.
Chang booked a session to build a collection of images for her speaker pack, LinkedIn, and the next chapter of her business journey. She arrived with a wardrobe of suits, blouses, jewellery, and shoes, ready to step into her evolving identity.
Working with coach Tamsin Napier-Munn (highly recommend!), Chang has been reconnecting with the life experiences that shaped her. She’s cultivating resilience, agility, and the ability to pivot with intention. She’s becoming an inspiring speaker with a story that will impact many.
If your personal brand deserves imagery that speaks before you do, DM me, Alexandra, and discover how a signature studio session can elevate your next strategic move.
This is your time.
To rebrand how you show up.
To stand stronger in your voice, presence, and image.
Live more. Love fiercely. Level up relentlessly.
Rewire your mindset. Grow. Share. Care.
Release what weighs you down.
Say goodbye to doubt.
Say goodbye to old stories.
You are becoming the next version of you.
Own it.
Book your photoshoot and step into the version of you the world is waiting to see:
Powerful. Clear. Confident. Unapologetically you.
For over two decades, through my boudoir brand For Your Eyes Only Portraits, I’ve helped women unlock profound confidence.
With The Suit Shoot, I bring that same mastery of lighting, posing, and empowering direction into personal brand imagery.
A supportive space where your personality and power are visible in every frame.
DM to reserve your 2026 Suit Shoot session today.

🚀Bride to be Danielle was the SECRET STRIPPER at her own husband’s stag do… Here’s her story!
Right after Covid with restrictions marginally eased, no entertainment was allowed at functions, including the stag do...
The best man called her in a panic. They hatched the secret stripper plan together.
They planned it perfectly. Danielle ordered this high-shine PVC catsuit and a mask that made her look like a mysterious troublemaker. She styled her hair completely differently and practiced her sexy dance.
On the night, she slipped through the side entrance, music hit, and in she strutted—full confidence, full chaos, fully enjoying herself. The best man nearly lost it trying not to laugh.
And her husband? Not a clue.
Danielle could’ve been a complete stranger. She stayed in character the entire time, giving her best performance purely for the fun of it. Then she disappeared as quickly as she arrived 😂
The two of them kept quiet. Not a whisper.
Then came the wedding.
During the speeches, the best man paused, smirking like he’d been waiting for this. “Before I carry on,” he said, “the stripper from the stag do realised she left something behind. She’s actually here to collect it.”
Every head in the room swung towards the door.
And that’s when Danielle stood up.
The place erupted. Gasps. Her husband stared at her like he’d just witnessed the twist ending of a film. Danielle simply grinned, soaking up every second.
Danielle booked her boudoir photo sheet with me to create a surprise anniversary wedding gift for her again unsuspecting husband.
She zipped back into it, and instantly that same bold, bubbly, unstoppable energy filled the studio.
Because once you’ve revealed yourself as the secret stag-do stripper at your own wedding… the rest is just fun.
We had such great fun in the studio and the pictures are stunning!!
Don’t you just LOVE THIS STORY!!!

📸 Here’s Lauren posing on my boudoir platform! ➡️ I’ve been working with my boudoir platform—also known as my ‘body sculpting platform’ —since I first started doing boudoir all the way back in 2002. 🚀
It’s been with me through every era of my photography, helping me shape, sculpt, and celebrate the female form.
The boudoir platform is purpose-built. It’s just the right height off the floor, allowing me to capture the perfect flattering angles that define my boudoir style.
Here, you can see the stunning Lauren posing on it.
What makes this platform so special?
💫 The Size – Spacious enough that clients never feel “too big,” only beautifully held and supported.
💫 The Firmness – No sinking or soft spots like you would on furniture/a bed or sofa. The firm surface helps me shoot clean lines, lifted, sculpted body shapes, and it works so well.
💫 The Elevation – It keeps my clients off the floor, maintains their dignity, and helps them feel elevated—physically and emotionally. I never ask my clients to lay on the floor!!
This shoot with Lauren was so much fun. She came in to help me celebrate my 20th anniversary as a boudoir photographer here in my studio near Marlow in the UK. Lauren has been in to see me a few times now, and every time we create such beautiful pictures, and have a good natter.
For this session, Lauren brought the most gorgeous lace gown, and as you’ll see, we used it in all sorts of creative ways. 🤍
I’ve added a little behind-the-scenes video of the shoot in action, along with some of the finished photographs.
If you’d like to learn more about my boudoir sessions, you can explore everything on my website—including my downloadable Boudoir Look Book filled with prices, a shoot guide, portfolio, and more.
And of course… if you have any questions about booking—or just want to say hello—I’d love to hear from you.
With love,
