There can be so many questions, when you’ve never done a boudoir session! That is COMPLETELY normal. Here is a list of our most frequently asked questions, so we can better guide you and put your nerves at ease.
Are you going to post my images online? Absolutely not! All of our clients fill out a model release form that lets you choose if you want us to share your images or not. We have multiple options including NO sharing, Anonymous sharing, and an option to share all images. We always appreciate when our clients allow us to share so we can represent ALL bodies in our work. Boudoir is for EVERYONE afterall! Those that choose not to share, we 100% respect their wishes. Choosing if you share images or not is done after you see your images, and that usually helps make up your mind.
Do I have to wear lingerie? Not at all. We have SO many ideas of unique outfits. It is most important to make you feel your best— in whatever that may be. If you have specific ideas, we would love to hear them. Otherwise, we do have some suggestions that we can chat about.
We have an entire album on our VIP group of some of the lingerie we have at the studio. If you’re unsure if we have it in our client closet, be sure to send us a message so we can let you know! Join our VIP group here!
Do you have payment plans? We sure do. Pre-payment plans are required at our studio. This allows you to plan ahead and make smaller payments leading up to your session. You are always able to upgrade the day of your session. We like to think of it like a personalized savings plan for your session. We also accept PayPal Credit (depending on the current promotion for PayPal Credit, they often offer 0% interest for 6 months, which is a great option if you want your products and images sooner).
Is hair and makeup included? Yes! We love to include this in part of our session fee because it really adds to the overall experience of your session. Taking time to get warmed up to the studio, us, and the whole idea of being in our birthday suit in front a stranger can take some time. Our makeup artist has worked with us for 5+ years and knows exactly what we prefer to photograph and how to achieve that look for professional photos. Your makeup is generally much heavier for professional photos than it would be for an in person event. That can be shocking for some, but trust the process and you will see how beautifully it photographs!
Do you Photoshop my images? We edit your images for light, exposure, color balance, skin smoothing and more! We prefer NOT to edit out anything that is permanent on your body, however bruises, acne, etc will all be taken care of. An important part of the process is to NOT change your body shape or size and see yourself (even your flaws) as a beautiful part of yourself. Finding empowerment within your imperfections will CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
Where should I buy outfits? Great question! After you book your session we have a What to Wear Guide that we can send to you. This is FILLED with ideas of places to shop and what to look for when choosing lingerie. Something we try to avoid are babydoll style outfits as well as corsets. Keep that in mind when you are shopping. Remember, we also have a FULL client closet of sizes XS through 5X that are available to you to borrow for your session. So if you don’t end up finding something you feel confident in, we can certainly dress you. (We don’t include shoes or other accessories). Our group also has lots of ideas for outfits that we continue to update and link. Click here to join our all women’s VIP group.
What type of print products do you offer? We offer multiple size albums with many luxury cover choices. Your album can be customized top to bottom (acrylic cover, matching box, gold or silver pages, and so much more). Our other most popular product is our Metal Wall art. These are a STUNNING way to display your art in your home. When you come in for your session, you’ll be able to see samples on our walls. Trust us, you will fall in love with them like we did.
Do you offer digitals? Absolutely. Digitals are offered in an online gallery delivered via e-mail. We also have add-ons such as USBs and Mobile Apps. Our Mobile Apps are a super popular add-on for many sessions. Our Collections also include digital images as well.
I am freaking out! How can I calm my nerves? MOST of our clients are extremely nervous for their session. We promise, showing up is the hardest part of the experience. You’ve already decided to go for it, you have nothing to lose at this point. If you are unsure, you can see on our MANY reviews that most women say the same things you’re worried about. It IS scary to be so vulnerable with a stranger, but by 15 minutes into walking in the door, we won’t feel like strangers anymore. I promise.
How many outfits should I bring? We encourage you to bring as many outfits as you like. We can help you narrow down what will work best for the camera and what outfits would look good with which sets available at that time. Unless you extend your session by purchasing extra time, we typically photograph your top 3 favorite outfits.
Should I get to my shoot early? You can arrive at your scheduled time for your shoot because we often photograph multiple clients in one day, so our makeup artist may be finishing another client or prepping the area for your appointment.
Where is your studio located? Our studio is located in Boynton Beach, Florida. Our prime location in South Florida is ideal for clients as it is central for the Tri-county area and a great place to visit. We have MANY clients who have traveled out of state to come see us.
