Do I HAVE TO SHARE MY IMAGES? Sessions are 100% private and images are NEVER shared anywhere without your permission. There’s NO requirement to share images in order to book a session. I will send you model release after your session where you can choose whether or not you would like to share.
I’M WORRIED ABOUT ACNE/CELLULITE/STRETCHMARKS. DO YOU OFFER RETOUCHING? Retouching is included with every session. I remove scars as requested, acne, blemishes, stretchmarks and cellulite in addition to bruises and other random marks you may have on the day of your session!I don’t “take off 15 pounds!” I work with clients to find the most flattering poses and lighting to highlight their best features. If there’s something you feel particularly self-conscious about, let me know.
I’M OLDER THAN (NOT AS THIN AS, ETC.) THE WOMEN ON YOUR WEBSITE. DO YOU THINK I CAN STILL HAVE A GOOD SHOOT? Absolutely! I often work with women over 40 and up. As you can understand, not everyone I work with wants their photo on my website, so you may not see someone who looks like you. But I photograph women of all ages and sizes. The women on my website are real women just like you who went through makeup and hair, put together thoughtful wardrobes and trusted us to help them create sexy, beautiful images. We can do the same for you. Boudoir photography is for EVERY woman.
CAN I BRING SOMEONE WITH ME TO MY SHOOT? You’re welcome to bring a friend for the makeup and hair portion of your session. Please let me know prior to your session day! For the shoot itself, I do not allow anyone else to be present. Even a best friend can be distracting because the attention isn’t completely on you. While I’m photographing your session there are no other folks in the room. If your friend, partner or husband wants to meet me to ensure I am not an ax murderer, they are welcome to come and meet me as you’re arriving!
ARE MAKEUP AND HAIR INCLUDED? CAN I JUST DO MY OWN AND SAVE MONEY? Every session includes full makeup and hair styling. Getting your makeup and hair done sets the tone for your session. It gives you time to relax, get to know us better and feel pampered. But more importantly, having a professional do your makeup means they know how to do camera-ready makeup that will truly make you feel and look boudoir sexy! Honestly, you will want to have a professional makeup artist go with you everywhere once you experience this luxury!
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO POSE. I’M NOT A MODEL. HELP! This is by far the biggest concern for my clients! Don’t worry – as I’ve said before, I work with clients through every pose during their session. Note that posing will NOT feel like just another afternoon of lounging around on your bed. I tell my clients that if the pose feels a little weird, they’re probably doing it right! There are classic poses that most clients want to incorporate and new poses that clients wants to try. And I try to find several new poses for each session.
DO YOU OFFER A PAYMENT PLAN? I do offer no-interest payment plans that extends the payment window to 6 months – this is a great way to purchase the Collection of your choice. Please talk with me about a payment plan if you’re interested in setting it up. I do not deliver any products until full payment has been made.
HOW MANY OUTFITS CAN I WEAR? I suggest bringing 2-3 different outfits. Than way we get some variety with your shoot but also don't waste too much of your session time changing in and out of lingerie.
