PORTRAIT COUTURE SHOOT: DUBAI
Once in while we receive inquiries that makes our heart flutter and we'd always instantly say yes even if we are unavailable - or at least we will work around our schedule to accommodate such inquiries.
When Nancy have reached out with The Purple Chair for a styled shoot and TPC asked us about it, there's no thinking twice. Knowing The Purple Chair's styling prowess - I knew the shoot will be amazing and naturally we'd love to be part of it :)

HAPPY 2017 everyone!!!
For our first blog this year we are taking you to a shoot we did over the summer when we have a little quite time for ourselves at the studio. It's this time of the year that really get us excited because we have time to create projects for ourselves that allows us to challenge new photography styles and art identities that are otherwise to ours. It is that time of the year where we open collaborative partnerships and meet fellow industry artists to work on something new!
Enchanté Fine Art Albums and Prints
This week feels like Christmas at the studio!!! We received 4 new album deliveries for our clients and a few more canvas prints for the studio samples (insert one thousand heart eyes emojis here!!!) For photographers such as ourselves - there is nothing more exciting than seeing our work printed in tangible form, something that can be held, touched and feel.
BOUDOIR MATERNITY: DUBAI
How is everyone this beautiful Dubai summer? Whether you are away spending quality time on holidays are staying put in Dubai - we hope you are having the best time!
It has been a crazy busy spring for us and that is why we have been a little bit quiet on the blog. Today I will be sharing with a personal shoot and news. At the time of this writing, I am 25weeks on my pregnancy and couldn't be happier! My first baby is now turning 10 years old and although it feels like this second one is a new pregnancy for me again, there are things that I am more ready and excited about! Such is to document this pregnancy journey. I shy away from the camera with my first maternity - as with many moms I feel extra heavy and didn't feel like myself so I didn't bother with having a maternity session done or any other photos of myself.
FASHION/EDITORIAL BOUDOIR: DUBAI
As a boudoir photographer, we see day in day out regular women for their boudoir session. It's uncommon for us to be photographing professional models at the studio but when we do - we pick their brains on posing, body language and expressions that we can share with our clients! Almost every single client who came in for a session with us will tell me after the shoot just how much they found respect for models who do photoshoots for a living. They will tell you it's not as easy as it looks to look naturally pretty for the camera.
Boudoir Maternity : Dubai
Whilst pregnancy can be one of the most beautiful thing for a woman, it can sometimes also be a rough experience where we may feel poorly about ourselves. I remember my own maternity with my first child where I literally hid from cameras for the whole of the term and even a few months after delivery. I felt huuuugge no matter where I look and it was specially difficult coming from a petite size-O to what felt was going to two size bigger. I wish I knew better then. That was 9 years ago and long before I discovered the beauty of photography. With beautiful light and the natural mommy glow - this time in our lives can be one truly one of the most beautiful thing to document.
Today we'll let you in to what happens at the studio before our portrait couture photosession. Bring your best friend, chat away, music on the loop, refreshments at your reach, and best of all have the pampering you deserve!
BEAUTY BOUDOIR: DUBAI
That's it hands down, Dubai has the prettiest girls! I am sure the whole of Dubai if not the UAE will agree! Local girl gang hi-fives!

BEAUTY BRIDAL PORTRAITS: DUBAI
One of the best things living abroad is you never know who you will meet next and what that person will be to you. What is more amazing is meeting people who you can talk to all day about things that you both love! That is Rasha to me. From chic furnishings to vintage finds, beautiful wedding details, flowers and our obsession to beautiful photography, we can turn to little giggly girls from serious entrepreneurs in an instant when we talk about these things. So you can imagine just how much I share with her my love for photography, luckily Rasha never get tired of listening!

If you are following us on Instagram, we share a couple of these sneak peeks there and you can just tell how much I love these set of my most recent shoot with B! I met Bryony when I was first starting as a photographer and I had the opportunity to shoot for her model portfolio. We have connected on a few more projects since. She has recommended me to friends and I to her whenever I'm asked of a model reference.

Excited to be sharing with you part of a session I did with my fellow photographer Maria. I work with M second shooting for weddings and for a long time I knew I need to photograph her as not only that she is obviously drop-dead gorgeous but M is also one hell of a cool chick! We share many photography tricks, vendors and what program we use, and photoshop and editing tricks that a road-trip to shoots often become a long interesting conversation on of our work as photographers.
It's always been our mission to change the misconception people think of boudoir. We aim to create contemporary, tasteful and has editorial feel to the images we produce and they are largely influenced through posing and styling topped by extraordinary experience. Wardrobe styling will set the tone of your images.

If I was not a photographer right now, another thing that I may have been doing would have something to do with interior styling or a pet groomer, but probably more on the interior side of things as I'd do a terrible job with grooming pets!

Over the summer I had the chance to reconnect with my beautiful friend and favourite 'muse' Fiona to for an intimate shoot. It was a nice summer evening and we decided the beach would be perfect for an outdoor sunset session.
I have photographed Raluca a couple of times now and she's always bring something new to the table! As a former model, now happy mom of two, Raluca's physique is to envy! And one that makes for gorgeous sessions too!
Here at Enchanté Studios, Sundays are extension of the weekend!

This month we renewed on our license for our second year in business as a studio. Today, I thought I will share with you our journey of how we started and how we found and built our studio.
When I look back how we came about as Enchanté Studios, the most bittersweet part was when we found and built our little white space.
So we picked it up from the ladies who call and come to us that Enchanté Studios is building quite a reputation as the go-to studio for intimate portraits for women! (Eeeekkkkk, this makes our hearts sing!!!) Many have expressed interest with our Intimate Portrait session. Now you may ask what it is, and if this photography might be for you.
Read along to these FAQ's if you would like to find out more.
Today’s post is a bit personal and something really honest and close to my heart. I have been wanting to write this for some time now, but I simply can’t find the time. This month with summer and Ramadan around, I finally have some time to breath and catch up with our blog, so YAY!
When I opened the studio back in January of this year, I knew I am going to have a blast with this new milestone in my career as a photographer, it’s been really amazing so far and I really enjoyed working with each and everyone of our client.
Enchanté me lovelies!
Today's post is something that I am really excited to share with you. As you probably know me, I have a special 'love' photographing women and creating feminine imageries whether it is for personal or professional use portraits. Well today's post is not one that is the same from any of the previous sessions I have shared with you. Let me introduce you to our boudoir sessions.
We love it here at the studio when our clients talk about us and their photo session experience not only within their friends and family circle but also within the community. It is a testament that we are doing our jobs right :)
Sonja was referred to us by another client and have come all the way from Austria for her business portraits (which we equally love and will share separately on our creatives blog!). We connected with this beautiful, vibrant soul instantly and was very genuinely happy when she shared with us she is coming back for a very special session to gift some images to a loved one. Knowing Sonja, we knew it was going to be an elegant and timeless beauty session. Her impeccable taste in classic and the vintage is understated so of course, we were excited about the wardrobe she was going to bring to her shoot! Cue, tulle skirts, linen dresses and pink tote and a matching boater hat, yaassss right?
