Your Boudoir Session
Boudoir Photography
From ‘What do I wear?’ to ‘Damn, that’s me?!’
I’ve got you.
step 1
consultation & planning
Before your shoot, we’ll have a relaxed consultation (either grab a coffee in person at Twiggs/Salute or have a virtual consult—your call!) to chat about your vision, wardrobe, and what makes you feel confident. I’ll guide you through everything—poses, outfits, what to bring—so you’re never left wondering. This is where the magic starts: getting to know you and planning a session that’s totally tailored to your vibe.
step 2
The Session
This is where the fun really begins! You’ll arrive to a welcoming, judgment-free space where it’s all about you. We’ll ease into the shoot with guided posing, lots of hype, and a playlist that makes you feel like a total babe. Whether you’re feeling a little nervous or totally ready to slay, I’ve got your back every step of the way. You’ll leave feeling powerful, proud, and maybe even a little obsessed with yourself.
step 3
Selection and Editing
After your session, we’ll schedule your photo reveal—aka the moment you see just how stunning you truly are. You’ll get to view a curated gallery of your best images and choose your favourites for final editing. I’ll walk you through it all, help with decisions if you need, and make sure you leave with photos that make you say, “Damn, that’s me?!”
step 4
Your Mic Drop Moment
Once your images are fully edited and your products are ready, it’s time for the grand finale! Whether it’s a luxe album, stunning wall art, or digital files, your final delivery is guaranteed to make jaws drop—yours, your partner’s, or both.
This is the moment your confidence gets to live on beyond the session, reminding you just how incredible you truly are.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What happens during the consultation?
A: Your consultation is where the magic starts! We’ll chat about your vision, comfort level, style preferences, and goals for your shoot. Whether you’re going for bold, soft, moody, playful, or all-out glam, this is your time to tell me everything you’re dreaming about. I’ll also walk you through the experience step-by-step, answer any questions, and help calm any nerves you may have.
Q: Can I choose between an in-studio or in-home boudoir session?
A: Absolutely! You get to pick the vibe that feels most you. The studio is styled to perfection with gorgeous natural light, furniture, and all the posing inspo you could dream of. ✨
Prefer something more personal? An in-home session is a beautiful way to capture you in your own space — cozy, intimate, and uniquely yours. We’ll chat during your consultation about what setting fits your vision best!
Q: How do I prepare for my session?
A: Don’t stress — I’ll guide you the whole way! After booking, you’ll receive a prep guide with tips on wardrobe, skincare, posing prep, and little things you might not even think about (like avoiding tight socks the morning of your shoot to prevent lines on your legs!). We’ll also talk about outfit ideas during your consultation.
Q: What should I wear?
A: Anything that makes you feel powerful and sexy! Popular choices include lingerie sets, bodysuits, oversized shirts, sheer robes, leather jackets, or nothing at all. 👀 I’ll help you plan your outfits to match your personal style and comfort zone, and give you recommendations on where to shop if you need new pieces.
Q: How far in advance should I book?
A: Most clients book 1–3 months in advance to ensure they have enough time to prep outfits, schedule glam, and work around any important deadlines (like anniversaries or weddings!). If you’re thinking about it… it’s probably time to book.
Q: What if I’m super nervous?
A: Being nervous is 100% normal! My job is to make you feel safe, seen, and celebrated. Most clients tell me they’re nervous walking in — and leave feeling like absolute goddesses. Part of my magic is helping you unlock the version of yourself you don’t always get to see… but she’s always been there. 👑
Q: Can we talk about hair and makeup?
A: Absolutely! Professional hair and makeup are not necessary. But can help you feel polished and pampered before you step in front of the camera. During our consultation, we’ll discuss whether you want something natural, glam, bombshell — or a mix!
Q: What should I bring to my session?
A: Bring your outfits (plus a few extras — options are always good!), any accessories like jewelry or heels, and your favorite playlist if you want to set the mood. Oh, and bring an open mind and some badass energy too. 🔥
Q: How long does a boudoir session take?
A: Depending on the package you choose, sessions typically last 45 minutes to 2 hours. This gives us time for wardrobe changes, makeup touch-ups, breaks, and alllll the fire shots you deserve.
Q: What is the vibe like during the shoot?
A: Think of it like hanging out with your most supportive, hype-squad bestie — but you’re getting professional-level photos at the same time. Expect lots of laughs, music, encouragement, and a few “YAAASSS QUEEN!” moments. You’ll be guided and celebrated every step of the way.
Q: Can I bring a friend for support?
A: Of course — if having a trusted friend will make you feel more relaxed, they are welcome! Just make sure it’s someone who’ll hype you up and keep the vibe positive. (No judgmental energy allowed in the studio!)
Q: Will you help me with posing and expressions?
A: 100%. You won’t have to know anything when you walk in — I’ll direct you from head to toe. I’ll even show you how to “breathe sexy,” arch like a goddess, and work those angles you didn’t even know you had. 😘
Q: What if I’m awkward in front of the camera?
A: That’s honestly everyone at first — and that’s why you’re here! I specialize in making everyday women feel confident, sexy, and natural in front of the camera. We’ll warm up, ease into it, and before you know it, you’ll be channeling your inner supermodel.
Q: How much do I have to show?
A: Absolutely — but only if you want to! Boudoir is about celebrating YOU, at whatever comfort level you’re at. We’ll talk about your preferences during your consultation so you feel fully empowered the day of.
Q: What happens after the session?
A: After your session, I’ll hand-select the very best images, professionally retouch them, and then invite you back for a private reveal session where you can see (and choose) your favorite shots. Prepare to be obsessed with yourself. 💋
Q: Will you retouch my images?
A: Yes — but only in a way that enhances your natural beauty! I’ll smooth skin, remove minor blemishes, fix stray hairs, even out skin tones, and lightly contour — but you will still look like YOU. Think polished, not plastic. ✨
Q: Can I request specific edits?
A: Of course! If there’s something you’re feeling a little sensitive about (a scar, a bruise, a tan line, etc.), we’ll talk about it during your consultation and make sure you feel amazing about every final image.
Q: Can I request black and white edits too?
A: 100%! Black and white boudoir images are timeless and stunning. If you love the look, let me know and I’ll include some artistic edits in your final selections.
Q: How much editing is too much?
A: Great question. My style leans toward authentic and radiant — I want you to recognize and LOVE the woman you see in your images. I don’t do heavy “airbrushing” or crazy body morphing. You’re gorgeous as you are; I’m just here to sprinkle a little magic on top.
Q: How long does it take to get my final photos?
A: Sneak peeks usually come within a few days because I literally can’t wait to show you! Final, fully retouched galleries are typically ready within 2–4 weeks. (Pro tip: If you need them by a certain date, let’s plan ahead!)
Q: Can I buy additional images later?
A: Absolutely! Once you see how 🔥 you look, you might just want them all. We’ll go over upgrade options during your reveal appointment — albums, folio boxes, digitals, and luxury print products.
Q: Will my photos be private?
A: Always. I only share images with your explicit written permission. You are always in control of what is kept private or shared.
