How far out do I book a boudoir session?When should I contact you?
A.S.A.P. The sooner the better! I hate turning down clients that reach out to me and need a session right away. I typically shoot between 8-10 session a month and that's about it. Try to book your shoot with the intent of at least 3 months out. 6 months is even better! Just like booking with a talented tattoo artist they typically have a waiting list. The more time to prep the better!
Are you sure I can do this?!
Yes. We've heard everything from "I'm not pretty enough" to "I'm too fat," and we have no doubt that you can do this. Even if you've never done anything like boudoir photography before, we are here to make you feel comfortable every step of the way.
Ladies, you are enough. I promise you that. These sessions are all about loving yourself. Let me show you how beautiful you are, how gorgeous your body is, and how amazing you truly are! Boudoir does not have a specific size or look ? it is for every woman.
What do I get with the Session Fee?
The session fee covers the pre-consult, hair and make-up, a reveal session, and my time of up to two hours to shoot and edit your images for the reveal. That total is $400. A non-refundable retainer of $200 is due at booking.
So wait... no images are included with the session fee?
That is 100% correct. the session fee covers hair and makeup and my time for the session, editing, and reveal. All images and products are purchased after your session, products start at $350. When I am done with your session you will feel like a QUEEN who can take on the wold!
During your pre-consult I will go over some perks and discounts for referrals as well as payment plan options.
How Long does it take to receive my images?
You will meet with my team to view your images. Typically 2 weeks after your session this will take place. Any products ordered will be within 4 weeks to have produced
What is your refund policy?
Due to the custom nature of photography, the session price and any products ordered are non-refundable.
What if I have no idea how to pose?
Girlfriend..... I got you!! If I did not know how to pose my gals then I am not doing MY job. Angles are key and can make or break an image. I will pose you from your fingertips all the way to your toes...... and Disclaimer.... you might be sore the next morning after a session with me. So you might want to stretch the night before
Do you photograph couples?
Yes! I shoot couples boudoir as well. Send me an email and we can talk about you steamy couples session.
Payment Plans?
We do offer Pre-payment plans through us. We also accept PayPal Credit and Square Installments.
Who supplies the outfits? What do I wear?
We've got you covered! After you book a session, we send you a complete lingerie guide to help shop for the perfect items to match your body type. However, it is just a guide. You have free reign, so be as creative as you like! This is your boudoir session. We also have an amazing stocked client closet!
Client Closet, what is that all about?
My Client closet results from my shopping addiction to pretty things that make you feel good. My C.C. is at the studio and I offer a range of sizes and styles from small- 4xl.
I am extremely nervous, is that normal?!
Of course it is normal, majority of my babes walk in extremely nervous. but the hardest part is walking through that door. After that... it's my job to take over and ease your nerves. I promise you it will be a wonderful experience that you won't be able to wait to do it AGAIN!
JENA!!! Why are sessions such an investment?
I hear this all the time! And I feel ya girl, but anything in life worth having is worth the investment. Photography now can be claimed by anyone with a camera, but these intimate sessions need to be done by a passionate professional photographer. LIKE ME! I know I am worth it, I know you are work it, so let s do the damn thang!
A boudoir session is an experience that is an investment. It is something you plan and prep for. I promise it's not something you'll ever regret!
What if I can't afford everything upfront?
Don't worry--I offer a few payment options! The only thing you have to pay initially is a $200 session fee at your time of booking. And you don't have to commit to purchasing anything until I wow you with the images from your session! Send me an email, and we can talk about it.
Where do the shoots take place?
I photograph all of my boudoir sessions in my Studio, here in Nampa, Idahol. If you love your home and are more comfortable there I also travel for sessions. I also love to shoot outdoors too!
Do my photos have to be shared online?
Nope! While most of my clients are so proud of their images and want them shared all over, we do not require you to do so! These are your photos and we support your privacy. Your images will be kept completely confidential if requested.
Am I allowed to have a cocktail during my session?
I do not offer my clients a cocktail in the studio, but you are an adult. I won't tell you no. Please do not come on an empty stomach as that is never a good idea.
Do you have a referral program?
YES! and it is nothing less than awesome. For every friend you send my way, I will give them $100 off and you get $100 also. And the best part, you can add these up and purchase products and images with your credit. This is great if there are things just not in your budget. You can get there with your extra credit. You will recieve your referral card within 48 hours of your session so you can start bragging about your experience.
Do I have to show any nudity?
No way ! You do not have to do anything you are uncomfortable with. I send you over a questionnaire, this is where you will fill out a bunch of info about yourself. I use this information to make this session a wonderful experience for you.
I have cellulite/stretch marks/acne. Can you get rid of that?
In most cases, yes*. Removal of acne, acne scarring, and most cellulite is part of the retouching process. What I don’t do is put your face on someone else’s body or ‘take off’ 30lbs. If there is something you feel self-conscious about, we can use poses and lighting to emphasize your best features instead.
I’m older than (or not as thin as) the girls on your website, can I still book a session?
Of course, and if you have followed me for a while I do not allow negative talk about yourself! The fact that I feel the need to go into this makes my soul sad. I feel bad that people even ask this question! I have shot with many women over 50 and curvy babes. Not everyone is comfortable with their photos being in my online portfolio so I can’t show sessions I do not have permission too. What I can promise is that I will create images to flatter YOU and best show your personality. I believe every woman is beautiful and it’s my job to show you just how gorgeous you are.
Can I bring a friend to my shoot?
Generally, I prefer to work one on one with my clients, simply because sometimes an ‘audience’ can make you feel more self conscious. If you must bring someone for moral support, I limit it to one person.
What do I need to do to BOOK A SESSION?!
First things first, send me an email! I want to learn about you, and your motivation behind wanting your life-changing boudoir experience! Once we get to know each other, I will send you all of the important details, we will customize your session to your liking, and then I will send over your contract, questionnaire, and invoice for your session Fee! Once those are completed, you are 100% booked and secured in the calendar for your chosen date, and then the planning begins!
