BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY CUSTOM ARTWORK

Bellingham Washington

I don't know what you've heard, but here's what boudoir really is, what it can be:

-  An empowering experience

-  A one of a kind gift for both you and a partner or loved one

-  A quiet celebration of everything you are at this point in your life

-  Marking a point in time that you don't want to forget

A damn good time

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Your Session

My best tips and advice leading up to your session, from my brain to your inbox.

Up to 60 minutes of photography in a beautiful studio.

Wardrobe and styling advice, plus access to accessories 

Professional, high-end image retouching to take your images from "straight out of the camera" to Art. (Photoshop has a time and a place, but I won't be morphing your body into something it's not.)

All of your digital images, displayed in high resolution in a private, online gallery

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Of course. This is super important to me, and something I don't take lightly. Your contract will have a section for you to sign off on the level of privacy that you feel comfortable with, and you can change your mind at any time.

I also have a blog with more detailed info about this HERE.

Can I keep my images private?

Absolutely! I'm here to help with outfit ideas, recommendations for shops and brands.

I have no idea what to wear. Can you help?

For starters: none of it is required. If you'd prefer not to wear makeup, totally up to you!

At the moment, because I work in a shared studio space, I don't have a hair and makeup artist on my team, but I know several in the area that I can recommend!

What do I do about hair and makeup?

Almost 100% of my clients don't know either! And that's perfectly ok. I'm here to guide you through every single pose, and I'll demonstrate them for you as well. I know it feels a wee bit nerve-wracking right now, but I promise, you don't have to worry about a thing.

I don't know how to pose, s.o.s.

Yes and no.

Photoshop does have a time and place. My general rule is this: anything that won't be there in 2 weeks, I can take care of that for you. Think: pimple, scrape, a loose string from your outfit, etc. What I won't do is "shave off a few pounds" or alter your body in a way that doesn't celebrate it. 

Will you photoshop [fill in the blank]?

Yes!

Your session fee is due up front, but albums can be purchased on a payment plan. I typically do 3 or 6 months, and we can customize something that works best for you.

Do you offer payment plans?
