Gra Intimate Portraiture

Love and Rachel are a blast, and their makeup artist made me feel like a queen. Gra provides the WHOLE package- pampering, photos, and even a lingerie closet! I went from never wearing lingerie in my life to having favorites because the closet is SO huge. I've worn makeup about twice in my life, live in athleisure, and I LOVED EVERY MOMENT OF THIS! The Gra team professionals coach you to pose in the most incredible ways. I am so sore from posing, but it was worth every moment. During the sneak peek at the end of the day, I was literally convinced they swapped photos with someone else. I truly felt gorgeous and was so amazed and empowered by my body. JUST DO IT! Schedule now before you talk yourself out of it.

If you are looking for a place to feel empowered, find self love and feel accepted as you are, this is the studio for you. Love and the staff and amazingly talented and will go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and valued. Boudoir photography is more than just what you see on the surface; it's about instilling a sense of confidence, appreciation for your body and of your whole being. Gra photography accomplishes that by listening to your goals, your fears and treating you to and experience where you are always in control. I have never felt more respected, cared about or valued than I did while I was in that studio, and the photos that I came away with were some of the most beautiful that I have ever seen. I was amazed at how they were able to showcase the inner beauty that I have inside of me in a way that was tasteful, sexy and honest. I have gone back 4 times and trust them like no other. You deserve this experience. Call them. You won't be disappointed

I had been really interested doing a boudoir photoshoot for a long time but didn't know where to start. After meeting Love and Rachel from Gra at Akron Pride I felt like this studio would be a safe place where I would feel comfortable as a queer person. I was really nervous getting started but Love and Rachel were so welcoming and excellent hype people. I'm obsessed with the photos that I got back from Gra and loved the whole experience!

Working with Love for a photo session was an amazing experience. Love and her team did a great job of making me feel comfortable during the session and of cheering me on throughout the day. I’ve never experienced so much support and kindness. The end result was amazing. I saw my photos and couldn’t believe it was me. Love and her assistant kept reminding me that it really was me. This was a wonderful experience in self-love and a great reminder that we are all more than we think we are. I highly recommend booking a session with Love. It’s a day full of pampering, laughter, and most importantly, seeing yourself in a whole new light.

If your unsure about booking a session with Love, don't be!! It is one of the best things you could do for yourself. I went way outside of my comfort zone for mine, and since I walked through the door they made me feel amazing. Love is amazing at her job. She actually cares and makes all the difference. They hype you up, make you so comfortable, make you see your beauty in ways you wouldn't imagine. My photos were eye opening, and the confidence they helped inspire in me was amazing. Just do it, you wont regret it

Love and the spectacular hype crew provided the best photography experience I have ever had! These ladies are educators, cheerleaders, artists, visionaries, torture artists (just kidding, sort of!), photography ninjas, and just amazing humans. My photo session was SO long and Love coached me into the most amazing, sexy and interesting poses and actually taught me how to not have a totally goofy look on my face every time she snapped photographs. I could not believe the number of beautiful shots she captured and I ended up buying so many more than I had planned--never did I think there would be so many different poses and photographs in which I would look so freaking incredible! Thank you, thank you, thank you, for such a positive, uplifting and incredibly fun day. And these photos....are just to die for.

Love and her team are just freaking amazing! As a single Mom I do not do a lot for myself and this was a treat I decided on at the beginning of the year. I just did my shoot this past weekend and had so much fun. I regained a confidence I had lost. Hands down such a great experience and would recommend to everyone as a treat to a significant other or a special self love shoot. I know I cannot wait to get back in the studio with Love and her awesome team!
