Love Letters
"I wandered into my session wide-eyed & awkward. A girl who didn't know what it meant to feel sexy or why it mattered. But after working with Stacie to unlock parts of me I didn't even know existed, I left changed. Because you can't un-have an experience...it becomes a part of you. Sure, you may forget some of its intensity as time passes & the memories fade...but what you discovered never fully leaves you.
That day I discovered that despite all the opinions & baggage individuals and cultures put on the idea of being "sexy," it is actually a whole lot of fun! I discovered that day that feeling sexy also feels creative, dynamic, & life-giving...why would I ever want to shut that part of me down?! THAT is the essence of being a woman."
Mrs. L
"I just wanted you to know that the pictures of Mrs. R weren't good, they were absolutely awesome! Mrs. R and I have been together for over 30 years and your work captured the beautiful, sexy, classy woman that I love.You've helped make this a birthday I'll never forget."
Mr. R
"I wanted to write to you and express my gratitude for the positive and uplifting experience you gave my wife yesterday. When I picked her up from the hotel she was glowing. But before I could write that note, you sent her the preview she just showed me. I am quite overcome. You have captured perfectly the woman I love and given me images of surpassing beauty that not only met my expectations but went far beyond them. I booked you because you were her choice and her favorite. But frankly I was worried about the expense of this Haute Couture session; a small doubt hovered in the back of my mind about whether you were worth the sums you charged. I doubt you no more. You are the best bargain I have ever had the fortune to find."
Mr. V
"I had an amazing experience with Haute Shots and Hera Beauty. I was a bit nervous going into it but their relaxed positive attitude immediately put me at ease. They made me feel beautiful and were a lot of fun to work with. I will always remember this and would highly recommend them!
Stacie, Kat, and Whitney all went above and beyond what I expected. You can really tell that they care about their clients and what they do. Throughout the whole session they made sure I was happy and comfortable with what was going on. Stacie was so bubbly and easy going and had so many ideas, she made the whole experience the best it could be. And Kat was so friendly, giving me tips the whole time she did my make up, and even fixed me up to go out that night. They were such a great team to work with, I couldn’t imagine going to anyone else after this.
I was thinking about anniversary gifts for my husband and found out about boudoir photography. Then looking online I found Haute Shots. Haute Shots had an endless number of amazing reviews. And after contacting Stacie, she answered all my questions and made everything easy. I loved the looks Kat created for me, I felt sexy and confident. And I thank her again for all the tips she gave me during the whole process. My husband commented on my hair when he got back, saying that he loved the big curls Whitney had done for my 2nd look. Kat and Whitney were such a pleasure to work with (or be worked on by), they really made me feel beautiful and were so friendly and helpful.
I cant think of anything I would have wanted done differently. Everything was above and beyond what I expected (and I'm not just trying to be nice, the whole experience really blew me away Thank you for everything you did, you all are amazing!"
Mrs. J
"I can’t say enough about Stacie, Kat and Whitney! Each of you ladies is a true artist in your own right! Even better, it was a joy to share time with you ladies. This shoot was THE BEST momento of Vegas I could’ve ever chosen…for my husband AND myself! Being an “out of towner,” I took a gamble on setting this shoot up so far from home…lucky for me I hit the jackpot!! Stacie you rock!"
Mrs A
"My wife and I booked a couples session as a birthday gift for me. We weren't to sure about posing for these type of photos (especially in front of a stranger). When Stacie, Kat and Rachel arrived, we were relieved by their friendliness. After introducing each of us, we felt like we had known them for a long time. Kat and Rachel had my wife looking like a movie star in a flash. Stacie took some amazing pictures of us that we are still amazed with. The Haute Shots crew were professional, encouraging and fun to work with. My wife and I had a blast and we would recommend you use Haute Shots. We can't wait to use them again. Thanks again Stacie, Kat and Rachel for the great time."
Mr. & Mrs. G
"There are no words to thank you enough ... as a person who has faced a lifelong struggle with self-esteem, your photo session did more for my confidence in one day than I had been able to achieve on my own in a lifetime! I've never felt as comfortable in my own skin as I do now, thanks to your wonderful encouragements and our phenomenal session. Not to mention how much FUN it all was! You are such an amazing, talented woman, and your love for your craft is so evident in all you do. Thank you for the experience of a lifetime... I'll forever be a fan of Haute Shots!"
Mrs. W
"Stacie made me fall in love . . . with MYSELF!"
Mrs. H
"Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! That is all I can say. Thank you for making the boudoir session so much fun. Thank you for helping me to feel sexy in my new body. Thank you for your kindness and for answering all my questions throughout the entire process. I could not have asked for a better experience.
I felt like a new person walking out of the session today - somewhere between showing up in sweats, getting my make-up and hair done and undressing to the bare necessities I found something I had been missing - my confidence. I am not sure what happened, maybe it was the continuous vote of approval from behind the camera, maybe it was the ambiance and music, maybe it was the mimosa - I have no idea - but I do know that I loved everything about today and it will forever be one of my favorite memories. Hera Beauty are AMAZING!!! I loved how at ease you made me feel - it was such a wonderful time, I just don’t even know how to thank you enough.
Just on a side note - I completely turned heads when I went to work for a meeting tonight ( I did happen to go home and change into a nicer outfit to compliment the hair and makeup) - the other employees had never seen me with the hair and makeup done in such a way and were very impressed - I even had a few I caught getting second glances It was nice to see that kind of reaction! Thank you again for all that you have done - I can’t wait to see the pictures. You are absolutely amazing and I will be telling everyone I know about you!"
Mrs. D
"I'm seriously sitting here (looking at my photos in the gallery for the first time) typing this with tears running down my face. I can NOT believe that's me! I'm so stunned, but in the best way possible. Thank you so much."
Mrs. D
"You're high-gloss drama. You go straight for the erotic, using dramatic lighting and high-end finishes {both on your sets and your clients} to turn even the most "everyday pretty" girl into a ravishing vixen. You offer a no-holds-barred experience that's sure to leave your client, and her lover, breathless with anticipation of what comes next."
Mrs. C
"Thank you so much, I had a really, really fun time, i just couldn't believe how easy you made it, and it seemed like it was effortless (for me anyway :). Was nervous that I wouldn't be as "supermodelish" as i envisioned in my mind, but I'm blown away by the pics! Also if i didn't tell you before, you and your team are absolutely fantastic...you made me so comfortable during the shoot. You all work so well together, and just chit chatted like we all knew each other for a long time which just made it even more fun...cannot express to you how awesome you and your team are."
Mrs. M
"I wanted to take a quick second this morning and say thank you for (boudoir shoot) yesterday. It was a wonderful experience for me. You made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. I will be recommending you to all of my girlfriends and guy friends too."
Mrs. H
"This was an amazing experience and I believe every woman should do this. Stacie and her crew have this down to a fine art. Very fun, exciting, and enjoyable. I love how Stacie can
put you at ease and in poses so easily. She truly makes you feel beautiful and sexy and has a personality that makes you feel like you've known her forever.
The best part and what made me the happiest was the fact that Stacie, Kat and Rachel made me feel beautiful. My husband tells me all the time, but it feels amazing to have someone else make you feel beautiful and tell you that.
Walking into my session, I had a lot of different emotions. In the weeks before the shoot, I was getting cold feet. Yet, I felt amazing when I walked out. I felt beautiful, sexy, and ready for the evening with my husband. Even in the days after, I still feel sexy, walk with my shoulder back and head high because Stacie brought out another side of me that I didn't know was there. I still catch myself posing a little here and there. I also believe my husbands heart jumped a little when he saw me.
An unexpected benefit from my boudoir session is I have noticed that I now see myself and keep looking for that sexy girl. Wearing hair and make up a little more bolder or sexier, I feel like I can do just about anything and want to make myself better and continue to be more confident and try to not be so critical about myself. You showed the beautiful side I have kinda forgotten about.
I am over the moon in love with my images! Like I said earlier, I am my worst critic. I have body issues I probably never get rid of, but you did make me look sexy, and incredible. I was
blown away with my reveal and all the photos I had to choose from. Was very hard to choose.
I can't wait to do this again."
Mrs. M
"You changed my life Stacie...for real. I have taken on things I never even thought I could do, all because you saw in me something I never saw...all through the eyes of a camera. You help women SEE themselves for the first time!"
Mrs. D
"I don't know you terribly well but I do know that you have talent. I don't know where you have come from or how far and hard it was to get where you are at today but I do know that God broke the mold after he made you.
Your photography is amazing. AMAZING. I know, you know, you do a good thing by taking those pictures but for the women that hire you, you are doing a great service. Every woman deserves a day with you and pictures like yours. You make women feel beautiful and you showcase their inner beauty and outer beauty. Yes, you have your own genre of style in each photo but you also really capture the inner beauty of the women you photograph. In the pictures that I have seen you can see a spark from each woman that is truly their own."
Mrs. H
"I gave my fiance the album last night and upon opening it he was completely speechless. He absolutely loves it. He has looked through it at least 20 times. I told you I was giving it to him as our wedding gift and since I am impatient I gave it to him early and he said that I really upstaged him for anything he could possibly get me. The smile that has been sitting on his face was well worth it. The album that you suggested was beautiful as well. I am glad that I went with that one, it adds an extra touch of super special to the whole thing.
Now onto the praise that you deserve everyday that you do this.... When we talked you knew how nervous, scared, and self conscious I felt about doing this whole boudoir photo shoot. Even though my friend that drove me there was able to talk me down from a lot of the nerves I had I still walked in scared of the unknown. During the shoot you and Kat made me feel so comfortable and beautiful.
This is so unlike anything I would ever do. I am normally a very reserved person so this really challenged me to step outside of my comfort zone. I was on pins and needles waiting for my preview of the photos that I was even dreaming about them. When I got the album I was completely blown away. You have such an artistic eye and you made me look amazing in every single one of those photos. You took the time to lay them out so beautifully in the album. YOU are the reason that the album turned out so fabulously!
I am so glad that I did not pick a local photographer and that I went with you all the way in Vegas! I have a feeling that you will be seeing me again. From the bottom of my heart Stacie I thank you so very much. You are an amazing photographer."
Mrs. C
"I can’t even begin to thank you for the amazing experience you, Kat, Rachel and Whitney gave me. The photos were beyond amazing and my husband absolutely loved them. He told me that those pictures are how he always sees me, which blew me away. Please let the rest of the girls know how much I loved the photos and the whole experience. I have a major decision to make about my health and this experience has proven to me that I am a beautiful, strong woman even if all my girl parts aren't inside me anymore! Thank you for that reality check."
Mrs. G
"I just had to send you a note letting you know that you have an awesome talent. Mrs. J. just forwarded the three pictures you sent her and all I can say is WOW! I always knew my daughter was beautiful but you have put icing on the cake. Mr. J will be thrilled with his anniversary gift this year."
Mrs. J
"I enjoyed the shoot so much. It was a true pleasure to work with you. You know just how to make people feel at ease and beautiful. It was so much fun! I told everyone at work how great you are and how beautiful your work is, so I'm sure you'll have many more shoots to come. Thanks again."
Mrs. B
"When the ‘rubber met the road’ it was not a difficult choice choosing who my boudoir photographer was going to be. In fact, from following your work in this industry I already knew 2 or 3 years ago it would be you!! it was just a matter of time and getting into shape, plus those amazing albums you offer just snagged me. Stacie, your artwork is sooo incredibly STUNNING! From the way you pose your clients to the lighting you manipulate, you truly are a gifted artist at what you do. I completely understand the day-in and day-out a photographer’s job can become mundane, but please never stop pursuing what you love. My hopes for you and Haute Shots are continued growth and bringing inspiration to others. You have a knack at making women feel welcome and comfortable because I honestly felt as if you were a close friend from the first email. Thank you so much for helping me along in this vulnerable process and getting me comfortable in my own skin. I couldn’t have done it without your ideas and encouragement. Also, I can’t thank you enough for working with me, for trusting me, and for dealing with me. Thank you for editing in detail and for designing my album to perfection. Thank you for understanding how important it was to me. I would not change a single thing about my experience with you. You were the perfect photographer and I will forever be grateful."
Mrs. K
"Love my photos! I felt like, as my BFF calls it, 'sex on a stick'. I'll be in Vegas again probably next year. Can't wait to update my photos!!"
Ms. B
"This was an amazing experience and I believe every woman should do this. Stacie and her crew have this down to a fine art. Very fun, exciting, and enjoyable.

Mrs. K
"I've had several shoots with Stacie, and I cannot believe how sexy and confident I always feel afterwards!!! Her Boudoir shoots are beyond compare - and I have had them done elsewhere, they weren't even CLOSE to the quality and beauty that Stacie produces!! I'm saving up for another shoot right now and I cannot wait to see what Stacie does this time. She is WELL WORTH the trip to Las Vegas. It doesn't matter if you're doing the photos for someone you love or just for yourself - Stacie will show you an inner goddess you never knew you had!"
Mrs. W
"Let's just say that he liked the album enough to quit the overseas work for good and came home!! It's been a whirlwind since he saw them!! Answer to prayer!! He is asking for some more photos now. He was very much impressed!! Do you know how talented you are? I don't think you do!!!"
