Why You Should Try Boudoir

What would I do with portraits?

A professional portrait is the best gift you can give yourself, to capture your essence as you are now. When you need a reminder of the strong, beautiful woman that you are, you will have a collection of amazing portraits to look upon. We love it when women come to us for themselves! The images we create together will boost your confidence, and that should be celebrated! It’s time to reclaim your femininity and sexuality, two things that are often lost as we get consumed with our lives, jobs, and families. Put that pep back in your step, and reflect on the bodacious babe you are. Celebrate the body that you live in!

But I don’t look like the women in your portfolio?

Actually, you do! You just haven't had the chance to see yourself from our perspective. Come into the studio and let us show you how beautiful you really are! There is no such thing as the perfect anything. But portraiture is for every body — you deserve this.


Who will be at my session?

Just you and your photographer! Your hair and makeup artist leaves after completion of the service, and our studio manager may be present, but is not involved in the shoot. We have an all-female staff, and our studio is designed with private rooms for each portion of your shoot day.


What should I wear?

We have created a comprehensive wardrobe guide to help you look and feel like a bombshell. Our policy is always "when in doubt, bring it!” You are also welcome to share a Pinterest board to help make your dream shoot a reality. We have an diverse Client Closet that you can borrow for your session with over 200 pieces to choose from (sizes XS - 6X). Most of our clients bring nothing to their session and rely on our fabulous wardrobe!

Schedule Your Call

Can we talk beforehand?

Most of our clients book their session over the phone, which is kind of like our first date! Then, a week or so before your session, we will have one 30-minute phone consultation so we can make sure you're ready for the session and answer any questions. We are here for you every step of the way to make sure you feel prepared and comfortable during this process. If you have questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.

The Process

How does this work?

During your four-hour session, you’ll receive a professional hair and makeup treatment, access to the client wardrobe, and more! With posing from head-to-toe, we’ll be there to help you with everything from facial expressions to where to put your hands! Studio sessions begin at 11am. After the session, photos are retouched and we will meet on a video call to review them. We will select which images you would like to purchase. Ordering appointments take approximately an hour. We do our best to make the ordering process a breeze!

 

How long does it take to get your products?

You will receive your images in about 8-10 weeks after your session! We typically ship everything directly to you in order to keep this process as simple as possible. We do not offer online galleries or multiple appointments for your reveal. All ordering decisions must be made at your reveal appointment.


Can I bring someone with me to my session?

We do not allow guests to be present for any portion of the time you spend with us. Our services are best delivered in a 1-on-1 atmosphere with your complete undivided attention. We promise you‘ll be loved, supported, and guided every step of the way in our studio environment.


How do I book?

After you schedule your consult call, you’ll select a date and pay your session fee to save the date! It’s that easy, so don’t be shy!


What if I need my images by a certain date?

Our studio books up 3-6 months in advance and our printed products can take up to 10 weeks for delivery. Make sure you reach out to book well in advance of when you need your images! If you have a special occasion coming up or wish to book a holiday appointment, I recommend booking 1 year in advance of that date.


How much will I spend at the ordering appointment?

This is all up to you! Some women want a basic album, others invest several thousand on a Collection with a variety of products. What you spend is up to you! You can purchase from our Collection or A La Carte, our full Investment Menu will be sent to you immediately following the completion of your booking process.


How do I pose?

We’ll show you everything and all you have to do is come as you are. You’ll be guided through every pose from start to finish.
