about us
Trust fall into the process, and I will reflect a woman back to you through luxury photographs that you’ll worship forever.
This is where we splurge and get off on it. Where juice drips from our fruit and we lick it off our own elbow, all the way to our wrist, and we don’t apologize for watching ourselves do it. Where we take a shower so hot it burns the apologies right out of us, and we come out the other side somewhere between clean and confessed.
By invite only. For the women who've become undeniably self-obsessed and want to return to this feeling time and time again.
Our signature experience. For women ready to become their own obsession.
The Wet Tease Set: a wet tank top and fishnets, nothing else. Nothing to prepare, nothing to shop for, nothing to figure out.
The Threshold™ experience includes everything from on-site hair and makeup application, access to a luxe client lingerie library, custom add-ons, all of your digital images, our Signature Heirloom album and more!
I used to feel wrong for picking myself apart. As I was surrounded by women who were… just themselves. “Normal” looking women who were GORGEOUSLY themselves. The epitome of self-love.
And I would hear the women quietly admit what they were worried about. And that’s when I realized… Self-love had become another lie. It wasn’t enough to have the “right” body. We also had to love every inch of it, every second of every day, with no room for messy, human thoughts. That’s when it hit me.
We have outgrown self-love.
It is time for Self Obsession.
Hi, I’m Kara Mia
Self love is the lie we've been taught.

I just want to let everyone know KARA IS A GENIUS BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHER!!! I decided YOLO, let's do this anyway!! Between poses, she would show me what the unedited photo looked like on her camera.... I thought MY ASS LOOKS LIKE THAT?? Unedited, my body, her instruction, her vision, her genius. And of course the final outcome with edits were If you're on the fence about it... do it. You will not be disappointed!!!"
"I'm not gonna lie, I was thinking eh, I'm too heavy for that, or I'm too old for that.

Kara has a special talent for being honest but uplifting, empowering women to feel confident about themselves. Confidence is the sexiest quality a person can have and this session will make you feel more confident and sexy. It's absolutely crazy how undressing with all your insecurities actually can do the opposite of what you think, will make you feel confident as hell like a stunning sex kitten (or TIGER! MEOW), letting loose and not covering it all up!"
"Any insecurity I had was eased and addressed with understanding and empathy.
Lauren
Absolutely loved every single moment of my experience! I had so much fun ! Looking at my pictures she took was crazy, I didn’t even recognize myself. They turned out better than I could have ever expected! HIGHLY recommend!"
"I was extremely nervous for my shoot but as soon as I showed up, Kara made me feel so comfortable and relaxed.
Amber
I set my date, and I immediately thought I had lost my ever loving mind. My body doesn’t belong trying to be sexy in front of a camera. Leading up the shoot, my anxiety increased, but Kara left minimal room for this. I texted her a couple of days before expressing pre-pic jitters, stating that I’d be a beached whale with decorations on. But Kara quickly encouraged me and reminded me that I was going to love this. I freaking loved it. I literally felt like I was spending time with a sweet friend who embraced me for who I am. I think EVERYONE should take a chance and do this for themselves, a beautiful opportunity to see you ARE enough and you DO matter, just as you are!"
"women who look like me DO belong in these photo shoots.
Lynsay
Absolutely loved every part of my session! I loved that she gave me a natural look and I didn't feel like my face was overloaded with make up. She made me feel more confident and sexy than I normally do, and view myself in a way I don't normally see myself. I would absolutely do another session with her again! Thank you for making it a very chill and fun day with absolutely no stress or body image issues for me!"
"Kara made me feel like we were two friends getting together chatting and taking pictures.
Ashley S
Where do I even start. From the first call you get with Kara, you feel so at ease with the whole process. You walk in to a clean beautifully decorated space that is 100% private. The hair and make up was top notch and the fact that it’s automatically included is incredible. The only thing you truly have to bring is your body. She has everything planned out and thought of from start to finish. You feel like you’re hanging out with a friend."
"When she showed me my pictures, I didn’t believe it was me. I’ve never felt more beautiful and sexy in my life.
Monica
My first one done through someone else in the past left a very disappointing taste in my mouth but after my shoot with Kara I felt beautiful, sexy, and confident. She made the entire experience fun and made me feel very comfortable. Thank you Kara for showing me a side of me I never thought existed!"
"I walked in super nervous and was hesitant on even trying to do another boudoir session.
