Boudoir Photography Reviews

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.

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.

Love Alexandra X

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.🤍

✨ Try my 3 Uplifting Boudoir Poses! ✨

Sometimes the simplest movements can shift your energy, boost your mood, and remind you how amazing your body really is. 💖

Here are three of my favourite “feel-good” poses you can try right now:

Pose One

1️⃣ Stand in front of the mirror naked (yes, naked—own it!)

2️⃣ Place your hands on your hips and give yourself a playful wiggle side to side

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.

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!!! 

Alexandra
