The Million Monarchs Boudoir Franchise is the first of it's kind in the world. We take great pride in being the first to market, but that's just one of A Million Monarchs Boudoir's many assets.
Our Story
Photographic artistry has followed me around on and off my entire life, from my time studying it in grade school and all throughout my adult life. It started to peck at my heels like a nippy puppy so much I had no choice but to pick it up and embrace this gift.
After selling my first successful photography business, I created A Million Monarchs Franchising with a mission to help women discover their inner beauty, boost their confidence, and helf our clients self-image with boudoir photography.
Today, we have cultivated a brand that is about an ideal, elegant experience and a special treatment for each client. We’re also the leader and a major innovator in the high-ticket boudoir photography space with numerous proprietary systems, techniques, and trademarks.

Imagine Your Clients Talking
About You Like This...
"Before my shoot with Marina, I was so nervous I remember sitting in the makeup chair not being able to sit still (Jacy still did an amazing job)! During the shoot I was extremely comfortable and the compliments from Marina was a super bonus I’ll never forget it, it was such an amazing experience!
I left the A Million Monarchs studio with a major confident boost and strutted back to my car like I was worth a billion dollars. To this day, my boudoir shoot with Marina helped tremendously with my postpartum depression. My pictures gave me a whole new perspective on how I see myself. I feel whole again."
- Ms. X
"In the back of my head, I had kept telling myself I would love to do a photo shoot. I would sit there and scroll through (A Million Monarchs) posts and pictures for quite some time. I knew it was something I wanted to do. I knew I was comfortable enough with myself to celebrate me!
When I look at the wall art or the box, I have the biggest smile on my face, because I know I succeeded in what I was trying to do! Capture me enjoying being a woman, being me, not worrying about what anyone thinks as long as this girl is smiling!
When I made the impulse booking for this, it was hands-down the best idea. If anyone is contemplating booking because you don’t think you lost enough yet or you won’t look good: just book!"
- Ms. X
"I was nervous all the pictures I had seen were of beautiful younger women. If my children knew I was doing this, they would be so embarrassed. I am a business woman needing to always be careful of image, so many reasons to hide!
I walked into that door and, all I can say is, it was a smudging right from the start. Two beautiful souls took me in, made me feel welcomed and cared for.
Now I flaunt those pictures, not hiding a thing. I remember why I wanted them. I am 50, a mom, a gram, a coach, a business woman, and an athlete. I want to show others how beautiful and sexy we still are even though our body try to tell us differently."
- Mrs. X
