Boudoir Frequently Asked Questions
So are you scared of the idea of boudoir? Maybe even scared to ask questions that you think may be silly. Well let me put your mind to ease just a bit. Here is a list of the 12 most frequently asked questions.
Do you share my images?
ONLY if you give me permission. This is a very personal and vulnerable journey. You are learning to love yourself all over again or maybe even for the first time ever. There are a million reasons to share or not share your images but those reasons don’t matter. What matters is what you are comfortable with. I do have a variety of releases for you to choose from if you want to allow me to share your images.
Do I have to wear lingerie?
Not at all! If you are not into lingerie, don’t wear it. Wear what makes you feel sexy. Boudoir isn’t about the outfits, it’s about you feeling sexy. I send you an outfit guide for more ideas when you book your shoot. I am always here every step of the way to help you.
Do you have payment plans?
Damn straight we do! We have a variety of payment plans to give you the freedom and flexibility to get EVERYTHING you want. If you want more deets, holla at ya girl.
Is hair and makeup included?
All local shoots in the DFW area always include hair and makeup. This experience is about being pampered, having your hair and makeup done is part of that. The style and intensity of makeup is all up to you. We can do a very natural look, all the way to full glam.
Do you photoshop my images?
I do basic color correction and a light skin smooth on EVERYONE. I will remove blemishes and anything not permanent to you. Other than that, there is no photoshop done.
Think about it, this is about self love. If I photoshopped you into someone that you are not, how is that empowering you to be the amazing badass that you are?
Where should I buy my outfits?
There are a ton of places, depending on what you want.
Honey Birdette is a client favorite, Victoria’s Secret, Adore Me, Torrid, Amazon, Hips and Curves, H&M, Agent Provocateur. If you need help with something specific, just message me.
What kind of products do you offer?
We live in a digital age now but if I’m going to be honest with you… printed photos just have this magic to them that you don’t get on digital.
For this reason, we offer a variety of printed products including 3 different album sizes and styles, metal wall art, even an image viewfinder (like the old school ‘click, click’ viewfinder).
Do you offer digitals?
We of course offer digital packages and even a mobile app for those who want to add to their albums or just don’t need physical products.
I am SO nervous, how do I calm myself?
This is 100% normal. You are doing something that is new, outside of your comfort zone and very vulnerable. If you weren’t a little nervous, I would be worried about you. Nerves are also excited for the unknown. Just know that I am here the entire way. You are never alone.
Just get to my studio and all those nerves will come crashing down. The biggest step you will make is not booking the session but actually coming. You can do it. You are worth it.
How many outfits should I bring?
How many should you bring and how many you will wear are two different things. Bring as much as you want. Bring more than you think you should. I will help you decide when you get here. There are always outfits that you end up bringing that you don’t want to wear on the day of, so come with a suitcase! You will wear 2-3 outfits for your session. Remember, naked can be an outfit. Just the sheets can be an outfit. Don’t stress out too much over your outfits.
Should I get to my shoot early?
Leave enough time for traffic but plan to arrive no more than 10 minutes before your shoot. We will talk about how you want hair and makeup in more detail. We will also go through your outfits during hair and makeup.
Where is your studio located?
Well that’s a loaded question.
My DFW studio is located in Grapevine, TX. It’s a magical space that I have created.
However, I do travel out of state a lot and am able to make any space my studio
