Flaunting your stuff in itty bitty lingerie in front of a camera isn’t exactly something you’re feeling confident about. But at the same time, you WANT to blast past those insecurities, do something incredibly thrilling for yourself, and have stunning images to boot!
That's where we come in. We've got all of the knowledge, tools, and love to make it happen for you!
After you schedule a session, you will get a confirmation email containing tons of information on how to prepare for your session, what to bring, directions, etc.
Next, we will set up a time for our pre-session consultation. Chatting over the phone ahead of time helps me get to know you, answers any of your questions about boudoir, and makes it a truly customized experience.
You will also be able to fill out a questionnaire so that we will know what your preferences are for music, hair & makeup, and photo styles ahead of your shoot.
If you want to go a step further, you can collect images you like which will help us know what style(s) you want to pursue during your session. An easy way to do this is hop over to our pinterest account and start making a boudoir board of all your favorites!
When you arrive at the studio, you are welcome to park directly in front of the entrance doors and come right in! Your professional makeup artist/stylist will be there ready to make you beautiful. Lashes and hair extensions are both included.
After hair and makeup, you’re invited to get comfortable and unpack in the dressing room. We will spend a good chunk of time creating a game plan for your session. I'll take a look at the photos you've collected (or we can look at my portfolio book full of samples) so I can get a solid sense of what imagery and style you like.
Next we'll finalize each of the 5-6 outfit changes by combining any items you want to borrow from our huge wardrobe collection with any items you brought along. We'll even select the jewelry, shoes and accessories you want with each outfit.
I will give you super easy-to-follow posing directions so no prior experience in front of the camera is needed at all. Really, my attention to detail is insane and I'll make sure every shot is PERFECT! Everyone leaves saying that it was so much easier than they thought it would be!
We have speakers throughout the studio to play your favorite music to get you in the boudoir mood.
Your session will be 2 hours in length so be prepared to tighten your stomach, arch your back, and just have fun! I promise that you will love the experience just as much as the photos!
After the photo session is over, you’re invited to take a one hour coffee/lunch break in Ballard. There are dozens of amazing coffee shops and restaurants just steps away!
When you return your images will be edited/retouched and ready to view! You'll see a slideshow of all your photos set to music and then together we’ll pick your favorites through a process of ellimination. This is actually the hardest part of the entire day because you are going to love them ALL!
Most people choose to purchase a photo album with multiple images, but we also have individual prints, canvas wall hangings, and specialty items that are popular add-ons. Before leaving the studio, you also get to choose a complimentary 4×6 print to take home with you!
The product(s) you order will undergo additional retouching, design work, and then move to printing and production. You can anticipate a beautiful package to arrive 3-4 weeks after your session!
