About Us

Maven Black Story

I'm Julia Snider, and for the past 10 years, I've had the privilege of capturing the beauty and confidence of women through boudoir photography. My passion lies in not only helping women feel good about themselves, but also in building meaningful relationships along the way. Throughout my journey, I noticed that many of my photography clients struggled to find high-quality lingerie that fit well and met their needs. Busy schedules, sizing challenges, and shipping delays often stood in their way. Four years ago I embarked on a new venture to offer the women of Houston a better option. After 4 years of planning (with lots of pivots) we proudly opened our doors in December 2024. At Maven Black, my goal is to offer chic, fashion-forward lingerie to the Houston area, ensuring my clients feel stunning, confident, and perfectly prepared for their photography sessions and whatever life brings them.
