BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY QUESTIONS
What can I expect from my boudoir photoshoot?
You can expect a gentle process that allows you to be to completely involved and self-expressed every step of the way. Many clients plan their photoshoot around big life occasions like a wedding gift, an anniversary or birthday or as a gift for themselves and their partners. In the end, they all walk away from their experience with this reminder close to their heart – I am worth celebrating, each and everyday. Clients are often surprised at just how empowering this experience can be.
What is included in the boudoir photoshoot?
DMP is all inclusive! The boudoir photoshoot comes with complimentary hair and make up (with lashes!) 60-90 minute photoshoot, typically 3-4 outfits (depending on which package you go with) and complete posing guidance and direction. Amount of digital images and album options depend on which package suits you best.
Where will the photoshoot take place?
Most clients opt for their photoshoot to take place in my private studio in Easton, MA. I also love to photograph clients outdoors when we have access to a secure location. I’ve even worked with clients at their own homes, or a hotel room. We can discuss which location will be ideal for you during your consultation.
What does the photoshoot session cost?
Most clients end up investing between $1100-$4000 for their total experience. We have payment plans available!
I don’t know how to pose! Will you help me?
Absolutely! A lot of my clients have limited camera experience and have no idea how to pose. I know how to gently guide and coach you throughout your entire session. I even get into the poses with you and show you exactly what to do.
Can I do my own hair and makeup?
YES! If you’d like to do your own styling, I’ll give you some tips and advice for preparing for your session during your consultation session prior to your shoot. However your package does come with hair and makeup so why not pamper yourself!?!
Do I have to pose nude?
Definitely not! Your photoshoot is yours and together, we will plan the ideal session for you. You’ll wear as much or as little as you’d like.
My body isn’t perfect, will I still look good?
Of course you will still look good! We know how to pose you in ways that are flattering to your body style. Outfit choices can also help you covering parts of your body that you are uncomfortable with. We are happy to consult with you before hand so you get the experience that you want and deserve.
What is your approach to editing and retouching?
I aim to create images that are as finished as possible through careful crafting and flattering lighting. I want you to look at your images and recognize and love your unique self. I do use photoshop for smoothing the skin and fixing blemishes.
I’m not sure I want to be featured on your website/online.
Client privacy is of utmost importance to me. It thrills me to share my work with the world but your comfort will always be priority. I will always ask for your permission before any images are shared with anyone, anywhere. I assume by default that clients want to keep their images private and I am delighted when I am given permission to share any images. Even if it means using images where we can’t see your face or with careful cropping. Because boudoir is so intimate, much of my work is not shared publicly and this allows my clients to feel totally comfortable in the image creating process.
Any suggestions for outfits or where to shop?
It all depends on what you want to wear for our session. A man’s button down shirt, delicate nightgown, corset and thigh highs, bra and panties, you decide your look for the session. Anything goes! This is something I love to discuss during your consult. I always suggest to bring one “conservative” outfit. I like to start with that so you feel comfortable behind the camera, so something such as a soft off the shoulder top for example. Some of my favorite stores to shop are adoreme.com, intimissimi.com, bluebella.us And Amazon! Yes, you can find some great items for our session on Amazon! I created a store for some of my top favorite picks that photograph really well and look amazing on! Link to Amazon picks: https://amzn.to/3p930KS
