Why choose me as your boudoir photographer
01
5 rooms to choose from
The atelier is made up of separate rooms, each with its own mood, from romantic to cinematic. It isn't one big space we move around in: we pick the room that fits your idea and stay in it.
02
A shoot in the water room
You can also choose the water room: 70 m² with no windows, a waterfall and coloured light. You'll find photos from these shoots in the gallery above. We often combine it with a white background shoot. This studio is in Targówek.
03
Skin looks like skin
I don't slim hips, I don't erase pores and I don't smooth wrinkles into a plastic effect.
04
You set the boundaries
Whatever you say before or during the shoot is binding. The photos go to a private, password-protected drive and I don't publish them without your written consent.
05
A makeup artist on location
Makeup is done by Dominika, whom I've worked with for several years. She is on location, right before the shoot. Makeup with hair costs €105 / $120, and makeup alone starts from €80 / $95.
06
600+ shoots since 2018
Boudoir is a big part of that number. Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 200+ Google reviews.
Five rooms to choose from
The boudoir studio where I work
It isn't one big space we move around in. It's a studio with separate rooms, and you choose the one closest to your idea, without mixing rooms. Each has its own light and its own mood. Below is a short description of each, and together we decide which one fits what you're looking for.
In every package
Film set room
An interior straight off a film set: a cast iron bathtub right by the bed, white brick on the wall, a tiled stove and a cowhide rug on the floor. A huge old factory window looks out onto a park.
Gold and Platinum packages
Piano room
A spacious room whose star is a 19th-century Budynowicz grand piano. Two large old factory windows let in beautiful light, and there is also a freestanding bathtub.
Gold and Platinum packages
Swing room
A darker, moodier room, ideal for low-light shoots. It features a pre-war G. Wolkenhauer (Stettin) upright piano, an original painting called "Mona Lisa at the Piano" and a vintage shower with a large glass screen.
Gold and Platinum packages
White room
A bright room with a bed suspended on ropes. Two large windows let in plenty of beautiful light, and a vintage shower with a large glass screen adds character.
Gold and Platinum packages
Water room
70 m² with no windows, so complete privacy. Four waterfall lines, a heated floor, decorative walls, a bathtub, a rock and coloured light create a setting for unique water-themed projects. We often combine it with a white background shoot. This studio is in Targówek.
Skin looks like skin
I don't retouch anyone into a version they wouldn't recognise. I don't erase pores. I don't slim hips. I don't smooth wrinkles.
I want you to look at these photos in a few years and think I was really beautiful then, not I was well edited.
For anyone who wants it
Who it's for
- For women in their twenties and in their sixties
- For new mums
- For brides
- For the newly divorced
- For women in long relationships
- For women in treatment and those who have just finished it
- For those who are losing weight
- For those who no longer want to
You set the boundaries, in a message before the shoot or during it. Your "no" ends the subject and I don't come back to it.
Would you rather something gentler, in clothes or in lingerie? Take a look at the women's photoshoot or the portrait shoot.
Before you step in front of the lens, I make sure the atmosphere is relaxed and I guide you through every pose. If you like, we meet beforehand and talk about what you want to avoid and what you're curious about.
You arrive in the morning, usually around ten. The door is open and coffee or tea is waiting. If you add makeup and hair, they take up to two hours. Most people say that time was the calmest moment of their month.
The shoot itself lasts from one to four hours, depending on the package. The first photos are in clothes, fully in your control. I show every pose, the placement of the hands, the angle of the head. I demonstrate them myself, so you're never left to guess. After the first change you usually forget the camera is there.
All the material goes into a private, password-protected gallery. You choose your favourite shots, I edit them, and you get the finished photos within 5 days.

Three women who did it
Roksana Świerczek, midwife.
I was nervous about the idea for about half a year before I finally got in touch. The first conversation already relaxed me, and we calmly went through what I didn't want. On the day, within five minutes I forgot where I was standing. When I got the photos I cried with emotion. Highly recommend.
Martyna Goławska, auditor.
I did it for myself for my fortieth birthday. I decided I wouldn't wait any longer until I lost weight. A very relaxed atmosphere, every movement of the hands explained, really step by step. A fair price and no extra costs afterwards. I got the gallery on the promised date.
Iga Reguła, vet.
My husband gave me a voucher for our anniversary and it was a brilliant idea. The atelier has a great atmosphere, and the shots by the bathtub came out best of the whole shoot. I never once felt awkward, even though I'd never stood in front of a camera before. Delicate editing, no plastic look, skin looks like skin and not like a doll.
What you're afraid of before a boudoir shoot
I need to lose weight first.
You don't. I've photographed women of every size, and every body looks different in different light and framing. I know how to guide you so the shot falls into place. Most people say afterwards that they regret only one thing: not booking sooner.
I don't know how to pose.
Most of my clients have never stood in front of a camera before. I show every pose, every placement of the hands, every angle of the head. I demonstrate it myself or with photos. After the first ten minutes your body starts to know where it should be.
I have stretch marks, scars, birthmarks.
Everything stays in the photos. I don't smooth or erase anything unless you ask me to. Most women say afterwards that these were exactly the photos they wanted most.
What if I change my mind partway through?
We stop. No discussion, no explaining yourself. We make coffee and talk about something else. It's happened a handful of times over the years, and every time the client wrote a few days later saying she wanted to come back.
Will my photos end up anywhere?
Nowhere without your consent. The photos go to a private drive with a password only the two of us know. If I ever wanted to show a single shot, I ask for written consent first.
Can I bring someone with me?
I prefer to work only with the person being photographed, because an extra person is distracting and it's easy to feel judged. If you'd feel more confident with someone close nearby, write to me and we'll talk it through.

Who I am
Tom Bort. I've been photographing professionally since 2018, with more than 600 shoots and a 4.9 out of 5 rating from 200+ Google reviews. Boudoir is a big part of my work, and I know how to take you through a shoot like this calmly, step by step. I work in English, Polish and Chinese.
Frequently asked questions
How do I book a date, and how much is the deposit?
Tell me when you're thinking of having the shoot, and I'll first confirm the date is free. You secure it with a deposit of 30% of the package value, paid by BLIK, card or Przelewy24.
How much time should I set aside for the whole day?
The shoot itself lasts one to four hours, depending on the package. If you add makeup and hair, allow up to two more hours before it. We usually start around ten in the morning.
When will I get my finished photos?
The five days start from the moment you pick your shots for retouching in the gallery. If you're short on time, you can add express editing in 24 hours.
Can I give a boudoir photoshoot as a gift?
Yes. I issue the e-voucher straight away, so it works even as a last-minute present.
Can we talk before the shoot?
Yes, the consultation before the shoot is free. We talk by email or phone about what you want to avoid, what you're curious about and which room to choose.
Book a date
Write two sentences about what matters to you and when you're thinking of. The first conversation always comes before the shoot, by email or phone. No pressure.
