What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
_Alli Murphy Photography is a full service Boudoir Photography Studio based in Long Island, NY. We are a female owned and operated studio. Our staff is entirely female to make sure you are comfortable! Our studio is a JUDGMENT FREE zone. Come in, kick off your shoes, and hang with the ladies for a relaxing experience!
The very nature of this type of shoot can be very hard for some women, but as female photographers, we understand the high need for comfortability. One on one session time gives the client time to get comfortable with the setting, and to get to know us, not only as the photographer, but personally._
What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
For Alli, a love for photography started at a young age. She has been behind the camera since the age of 16, and first began within the film medium. After 10 years, she opened her 2000 sq. ft. boudoir photography studio. As business has grown rapidly over the last few years, we have expanded to include two additional photographers - Courtney and Katie.
What do you love most about your job?
We love the ability to show a persons true beauty and personality. Today, there is a stigma of "beauty" and we believe in going above and beyond to help people see past what they think beauty should be. Our clients end up becoming our friends through this experience, as we help them understand that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, colors and ages!
What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
We have been told by many of our boudoir clients that they have considered doing a shoot of this nature many times, but never have felt comfortable until meeting us. There are many photographers out there, and being chosen because we make that person feel safe, is a great feeling. Many women will cry when they see their photos because seeing oneself glammed up, completely vulnerable and out of their comfort zone and recognizing that they are GORGEOUS just as they are is a truly empowering experience.
