"Be bold. Be brave. Be beautifully, unapologetically you."Book your session
Because you deserve
to see yourself clearly.
Most women have never had a portrait taken that actually captures who they are. This is that session.
A gift to yourself
Birthdays, anniversaries, milestones — or just because. You don't need a reason to celebrate who you are. But if you need one, this is it.
A milestone worth marking
A big birthday. A divorce. A health journey. A new chapter. Whatever brought you here — this session is how you mark it. How you say: I was here. I was this person. I was magnificent.
The portrait your home deserves
A fine art portrait of you — not your kids, not your family, just you — hanging in your own home. Exactly as bold and beautiful as you actually are.
We provide the magic.
You bring the story.
We set the stage — you bring the story. That's what makes every Couture session completely unique. Here's how it works:
We provide
- Angel wings — dramatic, ethereal, and unlike anything you've ever been photographed in.
- Luxurious silks & gowns — flowing, feminine pieces selected to photograph beautifully under studio lighting.
- White sheets & draped looks — for a clean, classic, timeless feel that's endlessly elegant.
- Fine jewellery — statement pieces to elevate every look.
You bring
- Your own lingerie — this is what makes the session personal. Bring pieces that feel like you — whether that's lace, satin, or something that tells your story.
- Your makeup, done — please arrive fully makeup ready. This isn't a hair & makeup session, it's a photography session. Come as the best version of yourself, ready to shoot.
- Anything meaningful — a special robe, a piece of jewellery, something that belongs to this chapter of your life. The more personal, the more powerful the portraits.

"For my milestone birthday this year, I was looking for a photographer who could capture my essence. I came across Pooja's work and immediately knew she was the one! The day before my birthday, I stepped into her studio and found myself. I am forever grateful for Pooja's art! Thank you, Pooja! I can't wait for my next session and many more milestones."— Pamela Paraison · Portraits Couture Client, Bay Area
Portraits Couture FAQs
A Portraits Couture session is a full luxury portrait experience designed exclusively for women. It combines professional studio lighting, our couture client closet, guided posing, and a cinematic image reveal — all in a completely private, stress-free environment. The result is a series of fine art portraits that show you exactly as magnificent as you actually are.
Not at all. Our couture client closet has everything you need — designer gowns, silks, wraps, and statement pieces selected to photograph beautifully under studio lighting. You're welcome to bring something personal if it's meaningful to you, but most clients use the closet exclusively and love the results.
This is the most common thing we hear — and it's always the first thing that disappears. You don't need to know how to pose. That's our job. We guide every angle, every expression, every moment. By the time you see your images, you'll understand why this session exists.
Every woman. Whether you're celebrating a milestone birthday, marking a new chapter, giving yourself a gift you've always wanted, or simply ready to be seen — this session is for you. Age, size, shape — none of it matters. What matters is that you show up.
Portraits Couture is a fine art portrait experience — elegant, empowering, and beautiful. Sessions are styled around couture gowns and luxurious clothing rather than intimate or lingerie-based looks. The result is something you'd be proud to hang in your living room and show your family.
Our private studio is in San Ramon, CA — easily accessible from Dublin, Pleasanton, Walnut Creek, Danville, and the greater Bay Area. The studio is designed to feel like a retreat — warm, private, and completely focused on you.
Everything. The client closet. The private studio. The cinematic reveal. The fine art products. And a photographer whose work has been published in Vanity Fair and featured internationally. This isn't a quick photoshoot. It's an experience you'll talk about for years — and a portrait that will hang in your home for decades.
You've waited
long enough.
Sessions are limited and fill quickly. Reach out now and let's create something you'll be proud to hang on your wall for the rest of your life.
