Frequently Asked Questions about Boudoir Photography


I'm really nervous. Is that normal?

It is definitely normal to be nervous for your boudoir session, so don't worry. Most of our clients are nervous until the session has gone on for a few minutes. After it starts, you’ll begin to loosen up. If you’re still nervous, try out these relaxation tips we’ve provided in another blog post!

 

How do I know how to pose?

Don’t worry about posing. I've totally got you covered in that department. I know all the tricks to create the most flattering angles for you, no matter what shape or size you are.

 

Do your packages include hair and makeup?

As of right now, I do not offer Hair & Makeup. I hope to be able to in the future!

 

Am I allowed to bring alcohol to help loosen my nerves?

As long as you're over 21, that’s totally fine with me.

 

Do you provide the wardrobe?

As of right now, I do not provide your wardrobe. This is something you’ll have to pick out and bring along yourself. If you need help choosing an outfit, we can definitely give you some suggestions, though. I hope to eventually have a client closet!

 

I want share these pictures with my partner, but I don't want loose prints floating around. Any ideas for the best gift?

This is a very common concern and I totally understand. We recommend placing an order for an album. This is much more discreet and will keep all of your images in one place and not floating around. I also offer folios and accordion albums as well. For more information on these products, just ask.

 

What should I bring to my boudoir session?

For our sessions, we suggest two to three different outfits and any props you may want to incorporate. Need help choosing props? Check out this blog article we’ve written on incorporating your partner’s interests by clicking here.

 

Can I bring a friend?

Yes, you can bring a friend if you think it will help you relax. However, sometimes an extra set of eyes has the opposite effect, even if it is a friend. They are more then welcome, but if they are making you uncomfortable, they may have to leave.

 

Who attends the photoshoot?

As a solo photographer, It will just be me!

 

Do you do touchups?

Yes, I will smooth skin and do some basic retouching on all of your portraits.

 

I’m not a model – are boudoir photos still flattering even if my body isn’t perfect?

Absolutely! Nobody is perfect and every woman is sexy. If you have any specific concerns, contact me and we can talk about it!

 

Do you do outdoor boudoir sessions?

We currently do not have our own outdoor location to do this, but if you have some private land, let me know and I set something up. I do offer outdoor boudoir sessions, but only if they take place on your private property. It also has to be in a secluded area, so nobody can see us during the session. I do this to protect you and my company.

 

Do I have control over who sees my images?

Yes, most certainly. I will only share photos if you have given permission and have approved the images for sharing. I respect your wishes and won't post or share any images if you’d prefer they stay private.
