“Alicia was absolutely amazing. This was my first boudoir experience and she made me feel soooo comfortable. The relaxed environment really helped to let myself be more free with my body. She gave me great direction and I truly appreciated that since she knew what would look great through the camera. This was a bridal boudoir shoot as a wedding present to my fiancee but really it started to feel like a present to me! ;) Highly highly recommend! Great gal and super talented photographer!”

“I had such a great time with my photo shoot! Alicia is amazing, she’s so funny and made me feel super comfortable! I would recommend her 100% she made me feel beautiful and sexy!”
— Isabel
“Even before my shoot I felt comfortable and supported. Alicia has tips and videos that help you get inspired for what to wear. She had a survey I thought was genius! It asked questions like your favorite music and snacks, the level of makeup you are comfortable with etc, things to help your shoot go more smoothly. It was so professional and well-thought-out it made me feel at ease going into the shoot.
The shoot itself was incredible! I am normally a very modest person and this was definitely stepping out of my comfort zone. I felt completely at ease and comfortable and it showed in my photos. The photos came out breathtaking! I couldn't even believe that was me. It still looked like me, but the strength and beauty of that woman I saw in the photos was actually a healing experience for me.
I cried reviewing the photos. They marked a tremendous growth for me, with my sensuality and how I viewed myself as a woman. So grateful for Alicia and her talent ✨🙏🏼✨💗 I absolutely recommend Sovereign Splendor for your Boudoir Photos!!”

FIVE YEARS after her shoot:
“The most memorable part of my session was the incredible energy between me and Alicia. We shared so many laughs, and her positive vibes made the whole experience comfortable and fun. The hair and makeup transformation was awesome; I felt like a new person stepping into the shoot. The way she directed me to find my best angles made the experience not just enjoyable but empowering.
This experience significantly boosted my self-confidence. After going through a tough time with my fiancé's betrayal, feeling beautiful in those photos helped me reclaim my self-worth. It reminded me of my strength and beauty, and I carry that sense of confidence every time I looked at my photos.
Emotionally, I feel more resilient and self-assured. The shoot allowed me to express myself in a way I hadn't before, leading to a creative awakening. I’ve found myself wanting to explore more artistic avenues, whether that’s photography or simply embracing my own style more boldly in everyday life.
Revisiting my images has been a beautiful journey of self-reflection. Each time I look at them, I notice new facets of my beauty and strength. They remind me of that joyful, empowering experience, and they also serve as a reminder of how far I’ve come. It feels like a celebration of my resilience.
I would wholeheartedly recommend a boudoir photo shoot to anyone looking to boost their confidence and embrace their beauty. It's an empowering experience that allows you to celebrate yourself in a unique way. Plus, the fun of getting pampered with hair and makeup and the joy of working with a talented photographer can transform how you see yourself. It’s not just about the photos; it’s about the journey of self-love and acceptance.”

“In the way she collaborates, she doesn’t crowd the model with her ego, she directs gently but with a clear goal in mind. Her personality allows for the model’s comfort which then leads to stunning portraits.”
— Acasia
“After I did a boudoir session, a whole new journey began. I saw myself through someone else’s lens - and damn I was sexy! It felt like I was given permission to be it all. I am sexy, beautiful, intelligent, kind, etc. And since I’ve begun to accept that sexiness is powerful, not provocative, I’ve opened so many new ways of seeing and loving myself.”
