"  I was looking for a body-positive, queer-friendly, Non-traditional photoshoot and I am so glad I stumbled upon The Silken Shadow Collective! Working with Ellen was excellent from beginning to end . I had been hesitant about getting pregnancy/ boudoir photos done but Ellen put me right at ease. She met with me in-person to discuss my goals, which was important to me. She was supportive of my ideas and offered helpful suggestions about poses, props, and the studio! Ellen was so professional!

This was my first time in front of the camera in a professional setting and i felt nothing but comfort the whole time.She made me feel very comfortable in my own skin and walked me through every step of the way. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to gain some confidence! 10/10 ! "
