Help! What do I wear? Or Bring?
This is a question I get asked frequently. I really enjoy shooting boudoir because each photo shoot is unique to each woman. Wear what works for you, your body, your style- and most important, your comfort level.
Sexy isn't just nudity and thongs. For the shy, it doesn't have to be revealing-- pose for your images in your favorite dresses... or his favorite dresses. His button down shirts, your favorite pajamas...anything goes. Of course, lingerie and cute bra sets are sexy, too!
...And don't forget the accessories: heels, necklaces, stockings... we may not use it all, but typically we will use 2 - 3 outfits.
How long before I can see the images?
It typically takes two - three weeks following your session for the full gallery to be completed, although images may be available for viewing as I complete them. I can meet with you to review your images and help pick those you'd like to use in your Boudoir book or prints. You will also receive an online password protected gallery to view and order any prints and products you would like to order. During busy times...it may take a bit longer.
How long does a session take?
Your session will last 2-3hours. (We always allow for 3). Since we never rush a session, you will be more relaxed, and it will show in your photographs.
How many outfits should I prepare?
We generally suggest 3-5 outfits and some incidental extra pieces. Different bras and panties, corsets, garters, etc. By the way, if your outfit includes garters, don't forget the stockings too. High heels are great for these sessions if you feel they fit your personality. The higher and sexier the better! But if you don’t normally wear heels, I don’t want you to feel like you need to wear them. It's up to you! Have a selection of everything!
I don’t know about using a male boudoir photographer, won’t that be awkward?
Let’s kick that elephant out of the room right now. Yes, I am a male boudoir photographer, but I am happily married to someone who supports my career and the idea of female empowerment. I photograph women, couples as well as men. This line of work for me is about creating art, and making you feel beautiful and comfortable with the skin you are in. I understand if you have concerns, but I promise you will feel safe, confident, and relaxed.
However, this session is about you and you being absolutely relaxed and comfortable. I guarantee a professional, fun and supportive atmosphere that you will truly enjoy. If it is more comfortable for you, we can arrange for someone else to be present as well. You could even bring a friend, who is more than happy to sit and chat, have a drink, and be there to encourage and support you.
Is boudoir photography for me?
Well, that depends on you! We firmly believe that boudoir photography is for all women who are ready to take the brave step towards having such an empowering and confidence-boosting experience.
Our clients are not models. They are everyday women, including stay-at-home moms, teachers, nurses, doctors, lawyers, bankers, daughters, grandmothers, and more.
These are busy women who've made the bold choice to step outside their comfort zones and treat themselves to something that goes beyond the usual mani/pedi, seeking pampering and empowerment.
