Day 3-We will be going to the Gaslamp area, downtown stuff, lunch, and do some kind of tour or event in the evening... we will vote on a few options as a group and do some super fun shit.


Day 4-Beach Day!! We will head to the beach, enjoy the sunshine, sand and water. And of course you can add on beach photos while playing in the water, splashing, hair flips, sand all over... And we will do a fancy dinner Thursday night, sun kissed. Get all dressed up and head out for our last evening together.


Day 5-Departure day. Sad day but we have to be out of the house Friday by 10am. We will make sure everyone gets to the airport and back to reality. But you will have the memories and photos to look back on forever.

What is included?

~Transportation, once you arrive in San Diego every place we adventure, your transportation will be taken care of.

~Housing, we will be in one huge house. You will get your own room. The house has a full kitchen, beautiful vibe, hot tub and tons of games and entertainment.

~Excursion, We will decide as a group what we will be doing... I love ghost tours so that's on the table. We will find a bunch of options and choose a little later once we have an idea of vibes.

~All dinners, all your dinners will be included in your package. Every night we will have different options to choose from. Thursday, the last night we will go out to a fancy restaurant, get all dressed up for our farewell dinner. No matter what we choose, all dinners will be included in your package.

~Breakfast, I will get a list of foods you love and have the fridge stocked when you get there. We will do breakfast at the house and pack lunches and snacks when we head out for excursions and beach days. If you choose to eat out for breakfast and lunches that will be something you will need to budget for.

~Photoshoots, of course this is the reason we are all coming together... House Photoshoot is included!! Tuesday is a full day of photoshoots with professional Hair and Makeup!! I will provide lingerie and flow you through poses and different locations throughout the house and property. We will do photos inside, outside, the kitchen, that pool table... I CAN'T WAIT! If you choose, we will also do photos at the beach in the sunshine, sand and water. You will get 25 digital images of your choice from house photos and 25 from beach photos if you choose to upgrade and have the option to purchase a customized album, prints and digitals as well.

~Hair and Makeup Krista is absolutely amazing! For your photoshoot Tuesday she will make sure you look amazing. She will walk you through every step of your HMU desires.

~Lingerie, I will be bringing a whole suitcase full of lingerie you can use for your photos. You will get to choose your style, color and I will have it there and ready for you. I do recommend bringing some of your own as well just in case.


Where we are staying? If you can't tell I love me some pink!

This place is absolutely beautiful and perfect for what I am looking for. The pink is just my vibe. The vintage/modern style is so fun for photos.

I can not wait for you to experience this with me!

Hi, I'm Shalee your Boudoir Expert

This is my second Boudoir Retreat I've hosted and if it's anything like the first one... you will have serious FOMO if you miss this one.

I will make sure you are taken care of. Fed, happy, and having the best week ever. If you don't know me... just know I'm a good time. I love having fun, I laugh a lot, I'm a goofball and just enjoy life.


Maybe I'll teach some Buti Bands while we are there too!! haha


I've got you! You. Are. Ready.
