Boudoir {Investment & Information}

What is a Boudoir Session?

Our Boudoir Session are tasteful photos with a hint of sexiness. We know that everyone has their own idea of what sexy is, and also know what they are comfortable with.  These sessions are Fun, Flirty, Sexy, and even a bit sensual all the while maintaining your comfortlevel.

How to prepare?

If you are interested in getting your hair and make-up done before the session, contact Jennifer, she knows several salons and make-up artist around the area that would love to assist you! We know many ladies are very good at doing their own make-up and hair, and if that is something you want to do that is perfectly fine as well. Keep in mind that to wear your make-up a bit darker than you usually wear it, so that the boudoir affect will be just that!
Being a woman my self I know that the super model stereotype is all in the back of your mind. Being the professional photographer I know just how to highlight your assets best while disguising the parts of you that you are self conscious about.
There are several Fashion inspired Themes that you can choose from... The most popular are Career inspired, such as business suits, uniforms, construction belts... And 40s PinUp is back in style and very popular.
Bring clothing that you feel the most sexy in, here a just a few ideas... bras, panties, corsets, teddies, panty hose, tanktops, booty shorts, sport jerseys & men's business shirts are popular. And a BIGGY is Shoes! Bring your heels!

How far do we go with nudity?
To be sexy you do not have to take your clothes off! It is all up to you {your comfort zone} You can be fully clothed, partially clothed, hinted nudity, or fully nude.

Images taken may be retouched for perfection, some may not. If you wish to not have them retouched, please advise the photographer before the session!

We know that privacy is a concern to most, and we want to assure you that your session will be completely private. No images will be shown without permission from the client in writing.

Where can you session be held?
Your session can be held at a studio location, a local hotel, bed and breakfast, at your home, and even outside in a private or secluded location.

Tip for the morning of your session: Drink lots of water and wear loose clothing. Avoid tight fitting undergarment as they are the most likely to leave elastic pressure lines on your skin.
