I did a boudoir shoot with Pat and can’t say enough great things about both Pat, as a person, and the whole experience! Pat took the time long before the shoot to learn about me, what I was looking for, things I liked(and didn’t like) about other photos I’d seen. By time the day of the shoot rolled around, everything was so professional and — most important to me — comfortable. There was no cheesy«hey baby, you’re so hot» BS. The hair and makeup person she uses is amazing. I was concerned that the makeup might be too heavy, but that was not the case at all. It was me, only better — exactly what makeup is supposed to be. As for outfits and poses, I had some ideas, but Pat also had some great ideas of her own. Totally natural and sexy! The prints themselves were breathtaking! Of course there is a little retouching — that’s why you go to a professional in the first place, right? Pat will work with you and make sure that the amount is just right — not too much or too little. If you’re still reading this, just stop and email Pat to set up a time to discuss your photo shoot. We won’t be young forever…

Pat Hill is my go to photographer for all occasions. She understands lighting, mood, atmosphere. She has been photographing for 30 years and does everything from fashion to fantasy and boudoir. She was one of the first and only women photographers for penthouse. This is both prestigious in its novelty but I also believe speaks to Pat’s professionalism and understanding of how to make women look gorgeous in or out of clothes. Pat helped me choose the perfect clothes from my own wardrobe to suit the intention of the photo shoot. She brings in the most amazing hair and make-up. It truly is runway gorgeousness. I am not a model. Pat builds on whatever natural strengths you bring to the table in terms of body awareness(for me it was soccer, ballet…) and teaches you all the rest. I was so nervous for my first boudoir shoot that Pat(who knew me by now) kept shooting until I was exhausted enough to relax. I’ve sent friends, clients and all sorts of people I love to her and she has taken exquisite care of them. Last point, I was always terrified of taking more risqué/fantasy shots because 1.) I’m pretty demure and 2.) I wanted none of the Terry Richardson skeevyness. I don’t want a date, I want gorgeous photos. I also wanted someone who could bring out my unique beauty(I’m Latina and I’ve had photographers try to photoshop by forehead, my jawline to make me look more«proportional»). Pat makes you feel gorgeous and then gives you evidence to boot. She is a high quality photographer and an artist. You will get quality and expertise for a great price. But, mind you she is not dirt cheap. And, honestly photos last forever, don’t you want to get some great ones now while you are still stunning and beautiful. Ps. I’ve shared a bunch of pics so you can see the range. And, some new ones she took for my latest biz launch.
