GET READY FOR AN EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME!!
I know you're excited!! What's not to be excited about? But I also know you are nervous. Below you will find a bit of information that will help you to prepare. You will have your hair and makeup completely styled. I will have sets/props that will create a variety of looks within your photoshoot. I will help you with your outfit selection once you book the session; however, I will help you finalize your choices if you need help with accessories. I will use lighting that will flatter your beautiful features and will pose you from the top of your head to the tips of your toes. You have nothing to worry about!! So let's get to it.
PROFESSIONAL HAIR AND MAKEUP
Professional hair and makeup services are provided with your experience. The stylist based your style on the information you completed on the questionnaire. You are welcome to change that when you arrive. You must arrive with a clean face and clean dry hair for dry styling. There is no shampooing involved, only styling. The stylist will ask you about your outfits and will coordinate your look based on the colors and your final outfit selections. Hair and makeup can make or break a session; so trust the stylist.
OUTFITS/ WARDROBE/ PROPS
You have access to me at anytime when preparing your wardrobe. I include the signature "white sheet" pose with every boudoir session. I will shoot several images in this set. Although we don't provide lingerie at this time, I do provide different props. In addition to these resources, it is strongly encouraged that you create a Pinterest board and feel free to share it with me. You will find many ideas to inspire you...think of your session as a theme. What story are you wanting to share? If you're not sure which outfits you want to wear, BRING THEM ALL!! I can help you narrow them down.
Here are a list of suggested stores locally and online to find great wardrobe options:
Ross Dress for Less
Marshall's
TJ Maxx
Burlington Coat Factory
PRE-SHOOT PREP
Once you book your session, you will receive a welcome email and a questionnaire. In addition to the welcome email, you will receive tips that will help you to prepare. It will be simple tips such as drink plenty of water, no tanning lotions or tanning beds within days of the shoot, etc. These are all totally optional. The questionnaire will be geared towards providing information that will help us prepare for your shoot. Please be sure to share your selected inspired images that you gather from Pinterest. Once you arrive at the shoot, you will be shown the different images that have been selected for you based on your shared images. I will be sure to try to incorporate those images into your shoot.
POSING
Don't worry about knowing how to pose. You will be posed in ways to flatter your body under the most flattering lighting. When it's time to shoot, I will demonstrate as well as direct positioning of head, arms, hands, chin, hips, legs, feet, and even toes. There will be different eye lines such as through the camera and down your body. There may even be an occasional "look away". It's very simple. You don't need to do anything to prepare, just be calm. No Worries!!
SESSION TIMELINE
The session can take between 1-2 hours. This depends on the number of outfits chosen. When the session is complete, we will plan to schedule your viewing and ordering session. This will be the time you will get to see yourself presented in a beautiful slideshow. You have the opportunity to purchase your images during this time. Payment plans are available.
YOUR ORDER
I offer a variety of different products. Products start at only $249!!! Albums, canvas, folios, and many more options. Albums are the #1 choice for most clients. Once we have narrowed it down, you will be able to select the images you would like to purchase in the desired format. Payments are made via cash or credit. Paypal credit is accepted!! Once your balance has been paid in full, your selected products will be designed and ordered. If you order an album or wall art, you will be emailed proofs of the pages in the album or album layout so that you can review. You have the opportunity to provide notes to make changes and edits that are desired. Please note that orders can take up to 4 weeks. You will receive an email with the details of your order and receipt of payment.
YOU WILL LOVE YOUR EXPERIENCE!!
