THE
Team
This is us.
We are Sabrina and Jake Turner
Let's be real - we never planned to start a business that would change how women see themselves. We were just wedding photographers who stumbled into something incredible.
It started with a bride's simple request and our total confusion about what boudoir photography even meant. Our first google search? Not inspiring. We saw some weird, uncomfortable images and thought, "No way, this isn't us."
But that bride saw something in our work we hadn't yet recognized. She believed our photography style could capture something more - something real, something powerful.
So we took a chance. We put out a model call, set up our home studio, and everything changed the moment our first client saw her photos. She cried - not from embarrassment, but from seeing herself truly, maybe for the first time ever.
That moment hit us hard. This wasn't just photography. This was healing. This was giving women permission to love themselves exactly as they are.
We didn't just want to take pretty pictures. We wanted to show women they work too hard to feel anything less than beautiful. We wanted to create a space where self-love isn't a luxury, but a necessity.
Our journey wasn't glamorous. We invested over $100,000 - in equipment, in education, in creating a studio that feels safe. But the real investment? Emotional. Every session is a chance to help a woman reconnect with herself, to challenge the negative stories she's been told.
We believe it shouldn't be this hard for women to feel beautiful. We believe every woman deserves to be seen, to be celebrated, to feel worthy.
Apricot Aura isn't just a photography studio. We're a movement of self-love, one empowering session at a time.
A husband and wife team who specialise in boudoir photography.
We work with women of all ages, shapes and sizes to reprogram your inner dialogue, to give you real perspective and to allow you to see yourself the way we see you.
A husband and wife dream team!

The Turners
Nearly seven years ago, our love story began, and it's been a whirlwind adventure ever since. Together we have forged a path filled with love, creativity and photography, leading us to incredible moments we could only dream of.
We are passionate about boudoir photography because we believe in empowering others to find self-acceptance. Why? Because we've seen the transformative impact it has on those struggling with self-esteem. And let's face it, when you don't feel confident, it seeps into EVERY aspect of your life.
You in this very moment is a version of yourself that you won't be for very long. You are changing by the day and it might be hard to see it now... but one day you will miss your current self. This version of you deserves love now and is worth being remembered.
That's why we are here! To create a lasting impression of the time you embraced all that you currently are and decided to show yourself love despite all your insecurities. Capturing the most incredible images that you can cherish for a lifetime!
