We, of course, would LOVE to share them so other women can get an idea of what the experience looks and feels like! HOWEVER, we take privacy very seriously at our studio. We will NEVER share your photos without your explicit permission, a signed Privacy Policy agreement, and a signed Model Release. We will honor whatever level of privacy you would like. Many clients are so proud of their images that they give us full discretion to choose images; while some clients prefer to choose the posted images. Some clients prefer that only their faceless pictures be put in our portfolio. Other clients are comfortable with anything being posted, as long as it’s after a certain date (for example, after they gift the images).

Sessions take place in our beautiful professional home photography studio. The studio is designed exclusively for boudoir and portrait sessions. Other locations (such as hotels, airbnb's, or even your house) are available upon request and additional fees. Our boudoir photography studio has multiple sets with different lighting, backdrops, and props to choose from. Hair and makeup are done right on location.

Professional photo retouching is included in your boudoir session. We specialize in the most comprehensive and detailed editing techniques and can enhance your images to your liking. It's important to note that we are not here to change you into someone you are not. We are passionate about creating stunning images that celebrate your individuality and one-of-a-kind beauty.

I recommend booking at least 6 weeks before you need your products delivered, especially if it is for a gift. This allows enough time for viewing, editing, retouching, album production, and delivery.

To start the booking process simply fill out the form on the contact page to set up a consult call. I will call on our scheduled time and day to go over the process, pricing, and find a date that works for you!

A $450 booking fee will be required to secure your date. This includes a preparation guide, professional hair and makeup, access to the client welcome and prep guides, 90 minute photo session, private reveal appointment, and professional retouching on every ordered image.

Prints, products, and digitals are sold separately at your private reveal appointment. I have flexible payment plans and outside financing. Full payment must be received before image and product delivery.

Our Luxury Albums are available in several different sizes. We've sourced the finest vendors to ensure you receive quality albums. To ensure quality and privacy, ALL of our album vendors are only accessable to professional photographers, and are based out of Canada, Paris, Portugal and Ireland. We offer elegant textured and genuine leather albums sourced from Europe that beautifully and discreetly stores your favorite printed images from your session. We also offer luxurious tabletop prints. Our typical client spends $2700-$3900 on their product options.

Our Gallery Prints, Acrylic Prints, and Metallic Wall Art are available in several different sizes. Wall art pieces are sold as A-La-Carte options. You work so hard day in and day out to be able to live in a beautiful home. Let's spice up the walls a bit and show off your gorgeousness!

It's important to note that the cost of boudoir photography can vary significantly based on the photographer's experience, location, and the services included. While it may seem expensive, many clients find the investment worthwhile for the personalized and high-quality experience provided by skilled professionals in this niche.

Several reasons boudoir photography is expensive:
Specialized Skill and Expertise
Time and Preparation
Professional Equipment and Editing
Studio and Equipment Costs
Limited Sessions

**Products Are Purchased Separately After Your Session, To Ensure You Go Home With The Products You Absolutely Love!

We're proud to say that there are Zero Hidden Fees! We do our best to be as transparent as possible and we don't belive in nickel and diming our clients to death. That is just a shady way of doing business and we are totally against it.

As for additional costs, yes, there can be additional costs associated with boudoir photography sessions.

Examples of additional costs can be:
Additional outfits / shoot time / sets (optional)
Location fees (if you choose to have your session at a hotel)
Extra editing & retouching (custom ordered by client)
Cancellation / rescheduling fees

Due to the custom nature of photography, the package price and any products you have ordered are non-refundable.

You have final say on the retouching, and custom album designs are sent to you for review prior to being ordered. Further editing requests can be made at that stage, and nothing goes to print without your final approval.

Not a problem! Honestly, even models often don't look like models in real life. They have cellulite, stretch marks, and acne-like every other human being. Having confidence and believing in yourself is what makes fantastic pictures. The glamour & boudoir sessions are all about having fun, getting glammed up, dressed up and letting your hair down, and forgetting about little insecurities. Treating yourself to new lingerie and beauty treatments before the session is a definite excitement and confidence builder!

You don't need to worry about a thing. I am well versed in posing and have even been known to strike a pose or two during our session together, too!.. Just don't laugh too hard. Lol. You can be sure that you always be guided to pose in a way that will flatter your features in the best lighting. During the session, you will be given straightforward directions on how to pose, such as "bring your chin forward," "look up at me with your eyes," "put your left hand on your left thigh," etc. My wife, who will be assisting you during the shoot, will also show you each poses personally, and if you allow—she will help you put a hand in the right position, fix your hair, etc.

No- you are beautiful as you are right now. We have much experience working with curvy, plus-size women. What we can tell- it does not matter what your size is when it comes to posing, lighting, and photographing you in the most flattering way possible, in a way that stays true to the authentic sexy that you are. With our unique posing system, we can accentuate your curves and best features, take off some extra pounds, and disguise features you might not love, just with lighting and posing.

When you book your boudoir experience with us, you'll receive a complimentary wardrobe consultation and emails that will give you ideas on where to shop, what to look for and how to dress for your body type! Preparing a Pinterest board with outfit ideas that you love is also a great idea. From there, we can always guide you towards the best choices. Sessions typically allow time for 2-3 outfit changes. You are more than welcome to bring more outfits with you, and we will help you narrow it down. It is always good to have options. But don't worry- You'll be super prepared by the time your session is here!

Ah yes, the proverbial "elephant in the room." Some women are unsure about a male boudoir photographer, and some actually prefer them. I guarantee a completely comfortable, professional, and FUN atmosphere. To ensure this, I work with an all-female team. Except for me, there will be no other men on-site during your shoot.

For all my sessions, I will have an all-female team to assist me. That being said, you can absolutely bring one girlfriend with you (as long as you'll feel comfortable posing in front of her and she is there to cheer you on). Please note that we do not allow partners in the studio while we are shooting. That's a firm policy.

For sanitary reasons, I do not offer a client closet. I keep a few accessories on hand, like sheer sheets and other items you may wear over your body. You are not alone in selecting your outfits! Depending on what you describe feeling sexiest in, we'll discuss options together and plan your looks accordingly. I also provide all of my clients with a wardrobe guide, including an extensive list of online and in-person lingerie retailers. I curated this list with every body type and cup size in mind. :)​

Not for these types of shoots. Boudoir can be perceived in several different ways, but to me, it's all about celebrating you and all of the amazing things in this life that you have overcome.

Professional hair and makeup are included in all of my sessions. Makeup for boudoir is much different from the makeup you use for everyday life. It is also a way for you to relax before your shoot and feel pampered before we get into this style of poses. My local makeup artist will work with you to create the perfect look for your photos. 

In all honesty, I'd prefer to work one-on-one with you. You may think having someone there for moral support will help ease your nerves, however I've found that sometimes having an ‘audience’ can make you feel more even more self conscious! I want you to be able to feel relaxed and fully present for the shoot; this is a big factor in creating incredible images that you'll cherish forever. If you absolutely must bring someone, they are welcome to attend the makeup/hair portion of your session, then leave to have lunch or go shopping while we do the photo shoot. The only person you should invite is your biggest cheerleader - if they're not excited for you, they can stay home!
