I’m Saulė, a Berlin-based photographer originally from Vilnius, Lithuania. I specialize in intimate and sensual boudoir photography, but I also love creative fashion, portraits, and capturing nightlife events.
Outside of photography, you’ll often find me surrendering to movement—dancing, exploring the art scene, or picking up new hobbies.
My energy has a chaotic flow that cycles from calm to explosive, so while I love the vibrant city energy, I also need periods of distance and time with myself.

What services do you provide as a boudoir photographer?

Within my boudoir photography, I offer sensual photo sessions for individuals and groups (couples and more), as well as promotional and content photography for sex workers and erotic performers.

What turns you on?

In other people, it’s authenticity, honesty, and accountability.
I find it incredibly attractive when people are brave enough to be themselves.
I’m also turned on by ideas and passionate minds that are filled with dreams and curiosity. For myself, I feel most connected to my erotic energy when I’m recharged.
Water gives me a lot of energy—I love swimming in lakes or taking a relaxing bath. I also love to slightly disconnect from the real world and slip into the fantasy world inside my head.

What was your journey to being a boudoir photographer?

I got my first camera as a teenager and have been hooked ever since. It feels like destiny, in a way.
My name, Saulė, means ‘sun’ in Lithuanian, and I’ve always been fascinated by beautiful light, colours, shadows. But more than that, I love seeing the beauty in people and connecting on a deeper level.
Photography became part of the way how can I express myself, especially since expressing myself with words never felt completely honest. The naked body was never taboo for me, and since early teenage years I become fascinated by erotism (I even had a Tumblr, filled with soft porn).
The act of photography actually feels deeply intimate for me by default, no matter if my models are dressed or naked. Showing someone how I see them through my eyes — is really vulnerable for me.
That’s why I always feel a bit anxious delivering the final pictures, as it gives away a part of my world and how I see and feel other people. I’m incredibly grateful for the trust of my muses.

What do the first 60 minutes of your day look like?

I’ve never been a morning person. If I don’t have any early appointments, I let myself be lazy and spend a good amount of time in bed after waking up, just rolling around or snoozing. And then, when I feel ready, I’ll start my morning bathroom routine.

Why do you do what you do as a boudoir photographer?

It gives me a chance to express myself and connect with people, and I’m always touched by the feedback I get from my clients. Honestly, it’s also the only thing that has consistently held my interest for this long.

What is an unexpected pleasure you discovered through boudoir photography?

I really enjoy how different my clients are. I’m so grateful to be trusted by such a variety of unique people, many of whom I probably would have never met otherwise.

 

What should more people know about your work?

That sexuality comes from within—there are no norms or rules for expressing your sensual energy. There are no rules for how much skin you have to show, or how you have to pose or appear to be ‘sexy’.
I provide the space and guidance for you to feel safe and confident, so you can express yourself in front of my camera in a way that feels genuine, authentic, and true to you.

What’s your superpower?

My high sensitivity.
While it can be overwhelming in my personal life, in work, my sensitivity allows me to tune into how someone is feeling, notice all the small, beautiful things, and create an atmosphere completely without judgment.

We love vices. What’s yours?

Clutter. My home is full of sentimental items and just little nonsense stuff that spark joy for me and I couldn’t part with it.

Who are your sensual inspirations?

I draw sensual inspiration from many places. From performance and art—like the cinematic world of David Lynch, music, and burlesque shows.
I’m also inspired by the world around me: beautiful buildings, design, and flowers (I love getting flowers). The friends and creative people I meet are a huge source of inspiration, and I also have a soft spot for the aesthetics of old pornographic and pin-up magazines.
