Empowerment

Sophistication

Indulging Allure is a boutique photography studio specializing in contemporary, sensual, and artistic intimate and glamour portraiture.   Located in scenic Orange County, California, I’m available Worldwide.

As an artist and model, I believe that each woman’s body is a work of art with a unique and alluring aura.  My goal is to create a personal gift for you that will empower you to embrace and celebrate your intrinsic beauty and sensuality.  The Indulging Allure Experience isn’t just about beautiful photographs that reflect your uninhibited spirit.  It’s about empowerment, confidence, fun, and an unforgettable day of beauty and pampering.

I can tell you how beautiful you are, but you’ll really feel it when I show you.  During our shoot, you will laugh and you may cry tears of joy with a feeling of validation.  When you tell me what you don’t like about yourself, I will listen and pose you in the most flattering way that will make those areas look fabulous.  When you think you look awkward, I will assure you that you don’t.  When you think you don’t know how to pose, I will show you how.

 

Hi there, I’m your Photographer, Tamara Young.  One of the scariest and most vulnerable things that I’ve ever done as a woman was to be photographed in an intimate setting.  Some years ago, the hour long drive to meet my photographer seemed to last for five.  I finally arrived and got ready.  There I stood in front of her and her camera wearing my lingerie and enough fear and insecurity to share with anyone reading this.  In the beginning, the only things that gave me comfort were my hair and my favorite pair of stilettos.  By the end of our session, I didn’t care what the photographs looked like because I had had one of the most fun, exhilarating and empowering afternoons of my life.  The transformation that I experienced was magical, and it didn’t involve losing one pound of weight from my body.

That day, I also realized that my passion and my purpose in life are to share that experience with others through my own lens.  Sure, I study photography, but I mostly study people, emotion, beauty, and fashion.  I then create ways to combine them in an image that my clients can hold in their hand as proof of their own beauty and confidence.

So you see, I would never ask you do to something that I wouldn’t do or haven’t done; with the exception of talking about yourself first.  But that’s only because our time together will be about YOU.

For now, I’ll just share a few personal things like my love of photography and its ability to have a positive impact on the human spirit.  I’m a Southern Girl from Memphis, TN, currently residing in Southern California with my fabulous daughter, Marti.  My passport is always ready for a new stamp in some far away land for adventure.  I tend to talk a lot about food, but trust me; I enjoy cooking just as much.

 

I believe that:

pretty food tastes better

laughter is the best medicine

music is a universal language  (wanna dance?)  

life is a gift to be shared

none of the 1,440 minutes in a day should be wasted on negative people

it’s healthy to indulge in my desires and life’s pleasures  (with moderation of course)

I should also mention that I have an unhealthy attraction to shoes and I refuse to count the number of pairs I own.  I think it’s just uncivilized.

 

So, back to YOU…

Now is the perfect time to contact me for your complimentary consultation and begin designing your personal Indulging Allure Experience.

It’s an indulgence that you’ll never regret, but someday, you may regret having never indulged in something just for you.

Go ahead and indulge a little…you may just find that you’ve discovered a whole new way to adore and embrace your beauty!
