Have you thought about getting Boudoir Portraits done before but then too many insecurities hit you and you chickened out? If your reading this then you clicked here because you are probably unsure of it all and not sure if you have what it takes. Believe me, I get it... It's a scary thought not being fully clothed and having your picture taken by a stranger. I know it is out of most of our comfort zones, and I am sure you are asking a lot of questions about the experience and if you have what it takes.
It is completely normal to be nervous. Most clients tell me before their session begins that they kept questioning why the decided to do this in the first place. But by the end of the session, they are comfortable and having fun. By the time they have gotten their final images they are running telling all of their friends how much fun it was, that it wasn't as scary as they thought and that they have to do this.
So you're probably nervous about a couple of things:
1. Photos in your underwear by a stranger.
2. Not entirely comfortable with your body!
3. No clue how to pose!
4. Makeup/hair/what's that going to look like?
5. My privacy. -- I don't want these photos to be seen by anyone.

1. Photos in your underwear by a stranger.
I promise I wont be a stranger long. When arriving for your session, we will pour you a glass of wine (or anything else you would like), turn on some music and hang out while you get your hair and makeup done. It takes about an hour to get your hair and makeup done and I take that time to get know you and make you feel at ease. By the time your pictures start, you are warmed up to me a little bit, and feel a little more comfortable. An hour may not be enough time for you to be fully comfortable so if you would like to meet me before the session, just say the word. We can meet up for coffee or you can come to the studio and see what it is all about.

2. Not entirely comfortable with your body!
We often have a warped sense of image when it comes to ourselves. Often times being overly critical of our bodies (myself included). When we look in the mirror, we see negatives but we should always remember all women are beautiful no matter your age, shape or size.-- Be kind to yourself and don't beat yourself up over your body image, no one is perfect.
Be honest with me, tell me what you think are problem areas of your body. This will help me in choosing poses that will work well for you. My main mission is to make you feel sexy and gorgeous in your own skin. Knowing what you think are problem areas from the beginning will help me chose poses that will be most flattering to you.
3. No clue how to pose!
Don't worry about the posing. I am the expert and I will make sure that I have chosen poses that will work for you and your body type. To help you get an idea before your session, I will send you a little bit of information regarding posing in your welcome packet. We can also create a private Pinterest Board that we can both pin ideas and poses to. During your session I will guide you in your posing, I will tell you how to position your body and even where to put your hands. Trust me. -- I promise I will make you look your best!

4. Makeup/hair/what's that going to look like?
Before hair and makeup starts, Breia will talk to you about how you usually wear your hair and make up. How comfortable you are with make up and the look you have in mind for the session. Most of our makeup consists of a smokey eye, and nude lipstick, and curls in your hair. How dramatic the look is totally up to you! All our makeup is done by Beauty To Go. Check out her Facebook page to see some of her work.

5. My privacy. -- I don't want these photos to be seen by anyone.
Your privacy is of the utmost importance to me. I will never share any images of you unless given permission. I even offer in-person viewing galleries so that your images are not on the internet what so ever.
With that being said, I do love to share images for use of advertising and for my portfolio, however I will always ask you for permission and a model release (listing the images I am allowed to share) will be signed by both parties.
When using your pictures I give you the option of picking the level of sharing you are comfortable with:
• Full images (full body and face images).

• Images where the face isn't showing (body only, I will creatively crop your face out of the image).

• Images where the face isn't showing (body only, I will creatively crop your face out of the image).
• For private portfolio viewing (only prospective clients will see the images in a private online gallery).
You have the choice to which level and if you don't want them shared at all, I completely understand and will not share the images. -- I will never share without your written permission.
