the consultation
THIS PART OF THE PROCESS IS A MUST FOR ALL MY CLIENTS!
Whether we meet at the studio or virtually. I like to schedule your consultation no more than two weeks before your session. After booking your session, I will email out a welcome guide that goes through more details about the session process and tips to help you prepare for your shoot.
During your consultation I want to get to know you, your “why” for a boudoir session, and answer any questions/concerns you have. We will laugh, you’ll hear all about my dogs and discuss ideas for your session. I want your session to reflect YOU. We will also go through my sample products so you can start deciding how you'd like to display and gift your images!
session day
THE DAY OF YOUR SESSION WILL BE A DAY YOU
CAN RELAX AND BE PAMPERED!
Your boudoir experience will reflect you, no session is the same. If you’re normally a cozy person your session will be full of blankets, sweaters and coffee mugs. If you’re a dancer I’ll ask you to showcase your best dance poses. Your session is about being you in the most authentic way and embracing it! I have an eye for details, so don’t worry, I will direct and pose you from head to toe.
When you arrive you’ll hop into my stylist's hair & makeup chair at the studio and let her work her magic on you! Your session will be 2 hours in length so I suggest stretching a bit beforehand, it’s basically your workout for the day! I will have a changing room, private bathroom, and beautifully set up studio for you to enjoy while I photograph you and show you how beautiful you are!
I promise that you will love the experience just as much as the photos!
gallery reveal
ONCE WE’RE FINISHED SHOOTING, WE’LL SCHEDULE YOUR GALLERY REVEAL DATE 1-2 WEEKS OUT
Then we will meet virtually for you to see your final images! Sometimes there are tears and even a few “omg that’s me” moments, all of which I love! Don’t stress about how many times you go through your images. I understand it’s hard to narrow them down, but I’m here to help you choose your absolute FAVORITES! We will discuss the best way for you to display your art work, whether it’s a velvet album, glass box or beautiful wall art. After you’ve placed your order, I’ll put the finishing touches on your images and start ordering.
Once your products have arrived, we can arrange for you to pick them up, or I can drop them off. If you don't live nearby I can also ship them to you.

My albums feature lay flat, panoramic spreads, thick, mounted pages, and a leather or velvet cover with a custom embossed font. When you order an album from me, I design it from front to cover for you! I send you a proof of the design before I order it, so it's easy for you to view your album and request any changes.

These 5x7 boxes come in glass for a peekabo display or velvet for more privacy. They hold 5x7 prints wrapped in a satin ribbon.

product investment
YOU DESERVE TO HAVE THESE GORGEOUS PHOTOS DISPLAYED IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE
During your gallery reveal you'll pick your favorite images and order them via my print collections. I work with only the best print lab to guarantee you are getting the highest quality products. Your photos don’t belong on a computer, they should be displayed and celebrated! I'll be there to help you decide which products are best for you and your art work. The amount spent during this time can vary depending on each person's needs, but specific pricing will be discussed during your consultation!
boudoir Faqs
can't I just get digital images and print them myself?
When ordering prints, you aren't just paying for the paper and what it costs me to order it, you're paying for the artwork on the paper. I spend hours before each session getting to know my clients and putting together a mood board/shot list, to ensure that each session is unique and memorable for the person I’m photographing. Each image is catered to YOU and deserves to be displayed in the best way possible. While you could order only digital images, I highly encourage ordering prints through me and my professional lab. It's less work for you and it guarantees that your images will look their absolute best and no quality will be lost (which happens in many cases at local print shops like Wal-Mart, Walgreens etc.) Plus, all of the collections I offer include web-sized digital images anyways, so why not get the best of both worlds if you can?
what do I get with the sitting fee?
The sitting fee is a non-refundable retainer that ensures you a spot on my calendar for your initial in-person consultation, your photo session date itself in my private studio, and our ordering/gallery reveal session after that! This also includes professional hair and makeup, access to my client closet, creating your inspiration/mood board, taking your photos, and the time I spend culling and editing afterwards.
are there any pictures included with the sitting fee?
No physical or digital products are included in the sitting fee. I offer a full service experience, which means I don’t want to just email you photos and not see your face when you look at your images. I believe in giving the highest quality products and professional experience I can offer. Photography is an investment; I believe the images from your session should be displayed and treasured for years and years to come. This is why I want to sit down with you after your session, look through your gallery and help you pick out the images you love via my print products and collections I have to offer.
what happens during a gallery reveal?
1-2 weeks after your photo session you’ll come to my studio and watch a short video of my favorite images from your session, then I’ll take you to your gallery to show you all your beautiful images! I also have samples of the various products that I offer, so you can see what you're purchasing. This is your chance to pick out your favorite portraits, make any notes on what you want the final edits to look like, and place your order!
what if I really want digital images too?
For each print ordered, I give a matching web-sized digital image for online sharing. High resolution digital images with a print release are also available in my a la carte options or in certain collections. That way you can share your images online or your partner can have your photos as their phone wallpaper!
so how much are your prints and collections?
Specific pricing for my prints and various collections will be discussed at our consultation, but I can give you a quote upon request!
DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS FOR YOUR PRINT COLLECTIONS?
Yes I do! I understand we all have our own budgets. For those wanting to work their portrait investment into their monthly budgets, I offer up to a 6 month payment plan, I just ask for a minimum of $400 of your total print order at ordering, and then we can customize a payment plan that works best for you.
