Gothic Romance in the Red Cathedral

Posted on January 18, 2026January 18, 2026 by cassieadmin in sets and themes

a red-toned photograph of a muscular dark-haired woman in black lingerie kneeling in front of an 8' tall cathedral window, lit red. the scene is partially reflected in the polished floor and there are candles all around. the vibe is gothic romance, dark romance.

A full and silly blog post is coming, but for those curious about Red Cathedral themed mini sessions here are a few quick details:

YES you can book this as a full solo deluxe session!

YES you can wear clothes instead of lingerie! YES you can wear colors instead of black, but black looks amazing tbh.

YES you can wear nothing if that’s your vibe!

YES to vampire vibes!

YES you can bring accessories! Horns? Fangs? A secret third thing? I have a few hard limits to what I will shoot but generally I’m very open to your ideas!

YES to horny catholicism!

YES to fans of Guillermo Del Toro and Frankenstein yearning!

YES to gothic romantic valentine’s looks!

MAYBE the set will return in december to dress up with some evergreen and make a gothic christmas set.

Fall in Love with Black and White Boudoir Photography

Posted on February 12, 2025February 13, 2025 by cassieadmin in Portfolio, sets and themes

If you’ve clicked around my portfolio it’s probably no secret that I love to shoot black and white photos! Maybe you’re with me! Please enjoy this collection of my black and white boudoir photography. But if you’re still on the fence, give me a chance to inspire you!

Why Black and White?

Boudoir photos in black and white are a classic for a reason. Whether it’s the rich and cinematic clear contrast of Hollywood’s Golden Age or the lo-fi grit and matte black and white tones of expired film from the 70s-90s, it creates a mood, drama, and intimacy. Monochrome is so personalizable. It helps me give a gritty punk client their DIY venue vibe, or a burlesque performer their perfect backstage sensual glamour session.

Explore Your Darkness and Find Your Light

As a boudoir photographer I love the way that black and white photography really makes light matter. When you remove color from an image it allows the eye to really pay attention to focus and contrast. It helps me shape a dramatic silhouette! Create anonymous boudoir images using shadows! Emphasize a body’s strength or softness.

Shooting in black and white is flattering for everyone, no matter your size, race, or gender. It’s hot for couples. It can help your bridal boudoir session vibe match with your wedding photos. Monochrome can help highlight your favorite features.

Black and White: Beautiful in Print

Black and white boudoir prints make gorgeous art pieces people are delighted to display in their homes. I love to print them on metal, which gives a magical lustrous shimmer that makes the tones shine. Bonus: they can hang safely on a wall without framing, if you’re into minimalism or still waiting for the perfect thrifted frame to find you.

Black and white photos interspersed with color images from the same session can add some drama and extra visual interest to albums. It can draw attention to favorite frames in your keepsake album.

I advocate for them when a client is having a tough time choosing between two beautiful but similar images—each can be a distinct work of art with tonal change and creative cropping.

Can You Have the Best of Both Worlds?

Yes. The best part of the digital age is that you don’t have to commit to an all color or all black and white session!

Most of my sessions are fully digital (with exception to special polaroid/instax bonuses for people pre-purchasing collections!), so you can get edits from your boudoir session in lush vivid color and romantic black and white. This goes for photos and videos.

Just like my color images, black and white photos are lovingly retouched to deliver luxurious, cinematic, and timeless boudoir portraits that show you as absolute art.

Halloween Boudoir is So Fun it’s Scary!

Posted on October 3, 2024September 22, 2025 by cassieadmin in sets and themes

halloween boudoir inspiration! Queer boudoir for LGBTQ+ people by Philly queer photographer Neon Velvet Studio

Italian horror boudoir with dramatic lighting and moody film noir vibes

It’s Halloween Boudoir season again, so let’s get into a few ways you can add a little pumpkin spice to your boudoir session! 👻

I’m a gay goth goblin so it’s probably no surprise to hear I love Halloween and the season that surrounds it. It’s leather jacket weather, the air is crisp but not too cold, leaves crunch when you step on them, and I’m not the only one listening to The Cramps and hanging out in cemeteries. I’ve got a great group of spooky friends and clients, so it’s only natural that energy creeps into my boudoir photography.

Let’s look at four basic categories of halloween hottie!

Sweet Treats

Is this a sweet treat? I think it is! This one’s for my lifestyle spooky babes, who keep halloween in their hearts year-round. You read cozy witch romance novels year round. Your perfect boudoir session is dark and moody, atmospheric, dramatic, a little creepy cute, smolderingly sexy. Maybe you dream of witchy boudoir to help you cast a spell on your sweetie with a one-of-a-kind photo album! Are you planning a Practical Magic costume while you’re reading this?

Maybe you're a witchy woman looking to hex your ex this Valentine's Day? Or want a halloween session that's more cute than creepy? No judgment, bestie!

Spicy Pumpkins

Where are my sirens? Those who embrace sensuality all the time, and are looking to Halloween for an excuse to live out their particular dark romance fantasies! Maybe that scream mask hair pull TikTok awakened something in you and you want to do creepy costumed boudoir. Your dream session a mix of drama, kink, nudity, and maybe fake blood or Evil Dead style black ooze. (Note: I’m keeping reference images here suuuuper PG but please don’t feel limited by that!) Perhaps a dark fantasy photoshoot is just the fit for you!

Spooky Cuties

You’re a halloween movie buff who thrives on all things scary and supernatural! Maybe you’ve been working on a sexy cosplay of an original character or a fan favorite. You’re delighted by fantasy boudoir, elaborate costumes, theme sets. More is more, and you really bring your best this time of year. Pumpkins, candles, skulls; you deserve all the occult trappings!

Autumn Vibes

This is for my Pumpkin Spice Princesses, the babes who aren’t into all the halloween stuff. They want a little candy, some pretty leaves, and a nice latte! You love dress up but like to keep it cute, so maybe you’re a Pink Pony Girl looking for your fantasy dance club photoshoot. Your perfect halloween boudoir look involves lace and rhinestones, more masquerade than mask. You get the picture.

is your halloween boudoir vibe more masquerade than mask?

Halloween Boudoir Inspiration: How to Get the Halloween Spirit

You’ve got a lot of options to make your photos a scream, whether you’re doing a professional boudoir photography session or taking some sexy spooky selfies! Here’s some things to help you prepare:

Choose your vibe: are you silly, spooky, or scary? Horror comedy, or dark thriller?
Pick thematic outfits. This can be anything from goth lingerie to something straight from the scenes of your favorite final girl or haunted horror.
Get atmospheric. Setting is huge! Maybe you’re a Scream fan, so you want to do your session in an oversized sweater in a kitchen while making some stovetop popcorn! Or the isolated woods are calling you.
Lighting matters! Deep ominous shadows and color gels can help create a dark and moody boudoir vibe to perfect your scenery and get that Nosferatu energy.
The devil’s in the details. What little elements can you add to really put the last nails in the coffin? Claw-like fingernails, fantasy contact lenses, ominous ooze? Props are great so don’t forget candles, candy, jack-o-lanterns, or your favorite crystal ball.
Shy? Halloween boudoir is a great opportunity to wear a mask or get out of your shell and into character.

Final Girl Final Thoughts

The most important part of boudoir in general–and halloween boudoir in particular–is to have fun. In my opinion classic boudoir photography is a great opportunity to see yourself in a new way, and themed boudoir sessions are perfect for trying something fun and maybe a little unusual for you! So what are you waiting for? Get your selfie setup and start snapping, or schedule your free consultation for a session with me!

Disco Diva? Strut Your Stuff in a Disco Photoshoot

Posted on April 2, 2024May 9, 2024 by cassieadmin in sets and themes

The Disco photoshoot of your dreams is just a click away

Two truths and a lie about Disco Nights

✧ Disco Nights is a neon boudoir fantasy, and part of the reason I chose Neon Velvet Studio as my studio name!

✧ Dolly Disco was my first TikTok to go a little bit viral!

✧ I got kicked out of Studio 54 in 1978.

Okay, sorry, that’s probably a pretty easy one to figure out, especially if you follow me on social media and saw my recent birthday posts!

Dolly disco, our disco mannequin mascot and savior — *in Dolly Disco we trust*

If you’ve spent even a minute on my site, you won’t be surprised when I say I love things that sparkle! I’m a t-shirt and jeans goth, but my photography heavily features prisms and lights and things that twinkle in dark moody spaces. I also love colorful lighting and set design! Once I spent several days turning a mannequin into a disco ball just so I could have a super unique prop!

I’ve got disco planters (hello, Disco Days!), disco curtain, and disco balls to pose with. The client closet has rhinestone dresses and bodysuits and mirror-silver pasties, and my hair and makeup artist can give you the glam makeover of your dreams.

All that’s missing is you!

Are you:
✧ Corporeal (possibly involuntarily, because you’ve been cursed by a witch)
✧ Extremely into halloween, cosplay, or sweeping dramatically into a room in a floor-length gown
✧ Looking for any excuse to wear a crown
✧ Someone who looks at fantasy romances and thinks, ‘hmm, could be gayer.’
✧ Exploring your sensual side (ominous, possibly as a threat)
✧ Ready to risk it all for forbidden knowledge of the arcane
✧ A will-o-the-wisp
✧ A crone who Knows Too Much
✧ Lowkey obsessed with being a Fae Prince (in a very hot and genderqueer way)
✧ Afraid for your mother to see just which books you read last year (ahem, dark romance readers)
✧ Into the Dark Maximalism or Dark Academia aesthetic

If you answered yes to three or more of the above, it sounds like your butt belongs in the Dark Garden!
