How The Swan Boudoir Studio came to creation

Hi there!  I am Tara Starr Hurley, the owner of Tara Starr Photography at The Swan Boudoir Studio.    

I have been working as a professional photographer since 2010 but the passion for stopping time with my camera goes way back to my childhood.

When I first started working professionally I took pictures of anything and everything.  Weddings, families, kids, newborns, headshots.  I tried it all.  Boudoir came to me when a friend asked if I would take "sexy pictures" of her.  Was this a thing?  I had no idea but of course I said "Let's do it!"  We had so much fun and that same friend requested 2 more sessions at her house with 7 more friends each time!  Many more boudoir marathons would follow shooting in my livingroom or at Hair by Christine & Co hair salon.  

In 2014 I opened my home studio and jumped into my business full time.  I decided to really focus on children and families and took a little break with boudoir.  But it just kept calling me back.  I would do a session here and there but my studio wasn't really set up for boudoir.  

In late 2017 I had to do it!  I transformed my space into the cozy bedroom feelwhere my studio provides the perfect setting for intimate portraiture.  

Boudoir portraits don't have to be scary!  The idea is to photograph a woman in her private space. A space where she is allowed to feel sexy, beautiful and confident.  The Swan Boudoir Studio acts as her bedroom during the portrait session......her "boudoir".  

Contact us today and let The Swan be your  "boudoir".
