"Beauty - it's the light that shines out of people's eyes when they look at you. And when you hold their gaze and then everything else falls away and then you see their true self and it's just staring back at you.
It is magnificent and everybody has it."
-Sue Bryce

You get to relax for an hour before your shoot getting pampered by my team- nerves are normal and I promise you will feel at ease and have nothing but fun!
Do you have payment plans available?
Yes, I offer in house payment plans for up to 12 months for specific collections
What if I dont want my images shared publicly?
All sessions are 100% confidential and are only shared with specific consent from my clients. If you want them to stay private, you will be the only one to lay eyes on them! They are your intimate images and will NEVER be shared without permission
What if I have a blemish or scar I don't want seen?
All my sessions are professionally edited and any specific requests for additional editing is always welcome.
How long is a session?
Hair and Makeup is 1.5 hours and session is 1.5 hours so plan to hang out with us for 3 hours! The time flys fast!
What if I don't want my session inside a studio?
I am happy to do sessions outdoors or anywhere you are interested in- some travel fees may apply
What if I don't love my images?
It's never happened ;) But if it does, I will fully refund you the session fee OR we set up a reshoot! You deserve to have images of yourself that you are in love with for years to come!
Do I have to be a model to have a Boudoir Experience?
Absolutely not! I don't shoot models, I bring out the inner model of everyday women! You will leave feeling like you are a model though :)
What if I want a more modest session?
Sessions are customized to each person. I have lots of gorgeous tulle couture dresses and robes to use to glam it up without showing too much or you can bring your fav sneakers and sweater! Whatever your comfort level is, is what we do in your session.
What if I'm not a size zero?
EVERY body shape and size is invited to my studio. I will use posing and lighting and guidance to make sure you are looking and feeling amazing in every image!
