Acts of Beauty is a portrait specialist in Edmonton, offering relaxed studio portraits and professional headshots. We focus on authentic expressions and a confident, polished result.
Acts of Beauty Boudoir Photography is rooted in one clear specialty: portrait photography. Based in Edmonton, we create studio portraits and professional headshots that are more than flattering images — they are honest, character-driven portraits that show who you truly are. Why choose us? Because we treat portraiture as an intimate collaboration. Our approach is conversational and relaxed: we guide you through posing, lighting and tiny adjustments so you can stop worrying about the camera and start being yourself. That ease shows in every frame — the thoughtful smiles, the moments of quiet strength, and the natural expressions people remember. Whether you need a polished headshot for LinkedIn or a studio portrait that celebrates a milestone, we make the session feel effortless and empowering. What makes our portraits different is a focus on authenticity and craft. We pay close attention to lighting, composition and styling so every image feels considered rather than posed. Our studio environment is designed to keep you comfortable and confident — from gentle direction to small details like backdrops and textures (yes, we love the character of our “rumpled sheets” backdrop) that help create images with depth and personality. How we work: each session begins with a simple conversation about your goals and the look you want to achieve. On the day, we move at a pace that suits you, using clear, friendly guidance to find flattering angles and genuine expressions. After the shoot, we carefully edit and refine images to enhance your best features while keeping the final portraits true to you. Our passion comes from seeing people discover themselves in a photograph — the common reaction of “Is that really me?” is something we aim for every time. We believe portrait photography should give you confidence, clarity and a beautiful record of who you are right now. If you’re in Edmonton and looking for a portrait specialist who prioritizes authenticity, craft and a relaxed studio experience, Acts of Beauty is ready to create portraits that speak for you.
