Julie Sawatky
Owner & Principal Photographer
Along this journey I have had the pleasure of being featured in some amazing print and online publications. Lush and Lace boudoir takes great pride in offering magazine worthy images, and editorial style bridal sessions. My brand is all about capturing the mood of confidence, beauty, intimacy, seduction and tasteful provocativeness. Our aren’t only the combination of planning, wardrobe, styling, and photography and killer images. They’re also a means to empower women to feel sexy, gorgeous, and confident, no matter what shape, size or age they are. But not without a little fun along the way. As a professional boudoir photographer, I create amazing images all the while making you laugh and feel completely comfortable. “Don’t worry… I will coach you through every move so that you won’t have to worry about the dreaded ‘duck lips’ or feeling awkward in front of the camera!” Our sessions are designed to give you a great selection of services as well as products.
Scarlett Edwards
Assistant and Session stylist
With any business that is booming, it is essential to have a tribe of amazing hard working women who have the same creative thought process for the business. Scarlett is that person for me. She is the behind the scenes girl who helps book appointments, helps me to brainstorm for creative sessions, and assists at a majority of my larger sessions and event dates. Scarlett is a creative bee herself and she adds a new dynamic to the team that we all love! If you send an inquiry about sessions, don’t be surprised if she is the one helping with the initial stages of booking. She will make you laugh and is an absolute joy to be around.

I’ve worked behind the scenes on fashion shows in Toronto and Montreal, music videos, theatre, weddings and many more special events. I love trying new techniques, working with color and making my client shine. My mission is to work with each person that sits in my chair and assist in creating the look you imagine. Classic beauty to modern edge, let’s explore your beauty together! I believe in empowering women to look and feel their best, every day.
