Where To Do Your Boudoir Photo Shoot In Napa Valley

Here are my top picks for Napa boudoir photo shoot locations to inspire your session. The following hotel rooms offer stunning settings, perfect for those traveling in or opting not to shoot at home. You can also get more location ideas for your photo shoot here.

Mt. View Hotel – Calistoga, Ca

The Mt. View Hotel offers a minimalist high-contrast background for your photos. It has very good natural light opportunities with big windows and nice drapes. I recommend The “Double Queen Suite,” “Queen Junior Suite,” and “King Junior Suite” to maximize the opportunities at your photo shoot. All of these rooms have an attached seating area which gives you more furniture to pose and more background opportunities.

The Medowood – St. Helena, California

For your St. Helena boudoir photo shoot, The Meadowood is a great option. Their cozy guest houses, like the “Cottage Room” and “Oakview Room,” have beautiful settings for photos. If you want more space and variety, the “Hill House” is worth considering—it even has an outdoor clawfoot bathtub for unique shots, however if outdoor bath shots are the main draw you’d do better to rent the Auberge du Soleil.

A luxurious and warmly lit suite features a seamless blend of modern comfort and rustic elegance, ideal for intimate portraiture. The bedroom area includes a large, plush bed with crisp white linens and a textured beige throw, framed by wood-paneled walls and soft Roman shades covering wide windows. A sleek, dark wood divider adds visual depth behind the bed. Sliding glass doors open into a cozy sitting room where a stone fireplace glows warmly, surrounded by neutral-toned upholstered sofas and natural wood floors. Large framed art prints, ambient lighting, and soft textures throughout the space create a serene, upscale atmosphere—perfect for Napa valley boudoir photo shoot locations that emphasize both luxury and relaxation.
A close-up image captures the midsection of a woman lying on a bed, arching her back slightly to highlight the natural contours and toned definition of her abdomen. She wears an intricately detailed lace lingerie set in a deep burgundy hue, accented with gold-toned rings and adjustable straps that frame her body. Soft, warm lighting falls across her skin, casting gentle shadows that enhance the sculptural quality of the pose. Her hands rest delicately near her hips, one adorned with a thin bracelet, adding a subtle touch of elegance. The blurred background suggests a calm, intimate setting, perfectly suited to the refined aesthetic of a St. Helena boudoir photographer.
A refined bedroom interior features warm, ambient lighting and tasteful rustic-modern decor, creating an inviting setting ideal for intimate portraiture. The bed is dressed in crisp white linens and stacked with plush pillows, flanked by matching bedside tables topped with softly glowing lamps. Vertical wood paneling painted in a muted sage tone adds texture to the walls, while woven basket wall art and a large mirror provide visual interest. A cozy alcove with a cushioned bench and framed landscape artwork is tucked beside a window with roman shades. Through the double doors, natural light spills into a hallway leading to an outdoor area, adding dimension and depth to the space. This elegant and serene environment serves as a perfect St helena boudoir photo shoot location.

Auberge du Soleil – Rutherford, California

Auberge du Soleil ranks as my top pick for a Rutherford boudoir photo shoot location rental, especially for those desiring stunning bathtub or shower scenes. The outdoor bathtub and showers attached to the “garden suite” and “Deluxe Private Maison” are unmatched for their outdoor shower and bath opportunities. I highly recommend opting for one of these rooms if you choose this hotel for the most breathtaking outdoor shower and tub photos.

Before & After My Clients Napa Boudoir Sessions

Boudoir isn’t just about what you see in the mirror—it’s about changing how you feel in your skin. Most of the women you’ll see in my portfolio didn’t walk in feeling confident or camera-ready. They had the same doubts you probably do. But with the right lighting, posing, and support, something shifts. You don’t just look different—you start to believe it. Below, are some recent before and after’s from some clients that hired me as their Napa boudoir photographer.

A side-by-side image showcases a transformation from casual to elegant in a Napa boudoir photo shoot before and after. On the left, the woman stands outdoors against a textured yellow wall, smiling brightly with her chin resting on her hand. She wears a black "Warriors Basketball" T-shirt and has minimal makeup, her hair loosely styled, giving a friendly and relaxed appearance in natural light. On the right, she lies on a bed in soft, diffused indoor lighting, wearing a coral-pink lace bra. Her eyes are closed, head tilted back, and one hand rests in her hair, highlighting a serene expression and styled makeup that enhances her natural features.
A side-by-side comparison showcases a woman before and after her napa boudoir session. On the left, she stands in a softly lit bedroom, wearing a black, white, and gray plaid shirt with her hair tied back casually. Her expression is relaxed and confident, with a natural, makeup-free look that highlights her clear blue eyes and soft smile. The lighting is warm and welcoming, enhancing the calm, everyday ambiance of the room. On the right, she sits in a cozy, light-filled nook against white paneled walls and neutral-toned cushions. Her hair is styled in soft waves, and her makeup is more defined, emphasizing her eyes and lips. She wears a black lace-trimmed halter-style boudoir outfit that features delicate floral embroidery. Her pose, with one hand resting on her thigh and her gaze turned to the side, exudes confidence and poise. The transformation highlights the empowerment and elegance captured before and after her napa boudoir session.

How Mrs. M Describes Her Napa Boudoir Experience

“Jason is a true photography WARLOCK! I have never been so intimidated initially and then within 10 minutes felt like I had been doing this for years! His guidance is extremely thoughtful concerning your figure, features, and expressions. He wants to highlight your attributes and erase your mind of your flaws so that they become part of your uniqueness and nothing of a negative nature. He is able to make you extremely comfortable at your most vulnerable.

I initially went to speak to him about a body positivity project. I believe women in all shapes and sizes should feel beautiful.

Though I carry this view, I allow myself to fall prey to societies unobtainable perception of the beautiful woman. Well, friends, Jason is doing this work in the now. He captures your inner beauty and your looks are the icing on that cake. If you are looking for a confidence boost the buck stops here.”
