Krysten of Bedhead Boudoir is a TLC coaching client, a six-figure boudoir photographer, and is consistently booked out nine months in advance.

Throughout this interview, we talk about how it feels to be a successful boudoir photographer after struggling in the industry for so long.

Six-Figure Boudoir Photographer

She's a super-talented photographer from Barrie, Ontario. And she's been a superstar since we started working together in 2021.

Here are just a few accomplishments and milestones she's had in the last two years.

  • In 2022, she hit 100K–meaning she is officially a six-figure boudoir photographer!
  • She's consistently booked out nine months in advance–without Facebook ads, Facebook groups, or model calls.
  • She sold out her bridal fair sessions with just two emails.
  • Her Black Friday sale sold out with just one email!
  • In 2023, she had a $20K month–her highest cash month.
  • Episode Highlights:
