BODY & SOUL PORTRAITS

GEELONG LUXURY BOUDOIR & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

Black and white specialised intimate portrait photographer.

Servicing the Geelong, Surf Coast and Melbourne areas.

FEEL BEAUTIFUL, STRONG, EMPOWERED!

It’s time to create YOUR legacy.

The Body & Soul Portrait experience is for EVERY woman. You do not need to be a model or have a certain body shape or size…the portraits you see on this website are of real, every day women, embracing themselves, their mind, their bodies and souls and celebrating who they are with stunning portraits.

You are ENOUGH and you are INCREDIBLE exactly as you are right now.

You are worthy and you deserve a legacy.

I offer a one-of-a-kind photoshoot experience to inspire confidence in every woman, to help her reconnect with herself, her body and be shown through my lens how incredible she really is.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

  • “There are no words to express the comparison before and after my photoshoot. I went in skeptical that I could have a beautiful photo taken of myself and walked out blown away by how comfortable I felt. Instead of feeling no love for the person I see in the mirror, I now feel as though I am beautiful no matter my size shape or age and now I will forever look at my photos when I am feeling not worthy of my beauty. This experience was more than I could have ever dreamed of.”

    SARAH

  • “I wasn't really sure what to expect going into it as I'd never done anything like this before but Tania was fantastic to deal with and made the whole process so easy. From our conversations before the session to encouragement and guidance during it and her follow up afterwards was really great and reassuring. It made the whole process so easy and fun! I was already fairly happy and proud of my body but seeing how much beauty Tania can capture in simple poses and outfits made me appreciate my body on a whole other level. Especially as this shoot was done at the start of my first pregnancy it helped me love my body even more and what it is capable of regardless of how toned I am etc. I was really pleased with my experience overall and would highly recommend it to other women regardless of shape, size, or confidence as I think it was a lovely experience. Tania helps build so much confidence in you and your beauty and having those photographs is a wonderful reminder of how incredible our bodies are.”

  • "I've had photoshoots many times before, but never ever anything like this! This was AMAZING and so, so much fun. Tania pampered me and made me feel like a Queen! She truly is incredibly talented, extremely passionate and gee does she know exactly what she is doing with positioning, lighting, props and how to work with a woman's body. She made me feel completely at ease and I 100% trusted that I was safe in her extremely capable hands. Thank you Tania for giving me the experience of a lifetime and images I never thought I was capable of. The closest to a Hollywood actress I'll ever get!"

Hello!

I'm Tania, an award winning portrait photographer based in Bannockburn, Victoria, servicing the Geelong and Melbourne areas. I am a portrait photographer OBSESSED with photographing women, helping them create their legacy through portraits.

I started photography as a hobby back in 2008, the same year I also started a PhD in biomedical science. At the time amidst the craziness of PhD life it was my creative outlet and little did I know it would lead me down this path.

After photographing everything from abstract art (water collisions, smoke art), macro photography, landscapes, I finally fell in love with portraits and after having my first son, decided to launch my business in 2015.

For the past 9 years I've photographed squishy newborns, families, created fine art children portraits, branding and headshots and beauty/fashion. Though I have loved it all, it wasn't until I started 'Body & Soul Boudoir' in 2019 that I KNEW this was my jam. I literally felt it in my bones.. Contemporary Boudoir FOR women, not OF women. And since then I have been in awe of every woman who has stepped in front of my camera.

You see, too many women think too little of themselves and I'm here to change that. I truly believe you are enough and you are incredible exactly as you are right now, with no exceptions!

What I do, is hold space for you to reconnect with yourself, and show your beauty and strength back to you. I want you to own your confidence and be empowered to be the best version of yourself.

To witness an incredible woman transform in front of me once she realises her own strength and beauty is nothing short of amazing. It’s capturing that self love, connection, preserving those memories and creating a legacy for others that truly fulfils me. This is what motivates me to be the best version of myself and what fills my cup. This is why I absolutely adore Body & Soul photoshoots.

My mission is to help you feel strong and empowered and exist in beautiful photographs; for you and for those you love.

I invite you to a session with me to create timeless, beautiful portraits of you. Your legacy. To last a lifetime.
