FAQ’s
Questions?
do you have a studio?
I do not but I’m happy to come out to any location you’ve chosen in the Los Angeles metro area. For shoots in Orange County or while I’m touring, please add $200.
i’ve never done a boudoir photo shoot before?! what should i expect?
you don’t need any experience; I will guide you every step of the way, from picking outfits you feel comfortable in to guiding through a series of poses that are friendly to all body shapes and sizes. a boudoir shoot with me is easy, fun and stress-free. I promise I will help you find your best angles and that you’ll walk out feeling like a total goddess, with photos to match.
what should I bring to the shoot?
I’ll send you a guide pre-shoot, but in general I recommend the following:
- as many wardrobe options as you may like (think beyond lingerie: swimsuits, bodysuits, nice dresses, an oversized button-down shirt or even a silk scarf are excellent
- props or accessories you like
- a robe and slippers to keep on while in between setups to keep you comfy
- bevvie friendly! bring in your champagne, matcha, latte…whatever brings you joy ✨
what payment methods do you accept?
I accept Zelle, cash, bitcoin, and venmo.
do you ever shoot outside of LA?
Yes! Sometimes I travel and take appointments in other major cities around the world. Please sign up for my newsletter to get my travel dates.
can I bring my friend/partner/pet with me?
Yes! If you will feel more comfortable with a friend hyping you up, go right ahead. unless you have a trained service animal, I ask that you don’t bring an animal as they tend to get in the way of our photos.
can I bring my partner into the photos?
Absolutely! in case you want to do a spicy session with your lover(s), there’s no additional charge to our existing packages.
do you have a hair and makeup artist you could recommend?
I’m happy to recommend hair and makeup artists for whatever look and style you are going for.
do you require a deposit?
Yes, each appointment requires a $100 deposit which goes towards the cost of your booking. Your deposit guarantees your appointment. Deposits are non-refundable, but should you need to reschedule, you may rollover your deposit to a different date.
what is your cancellation policy?
You may cancel up to 48 hours before our appointment and use your deposit to book another day. However *if you cancel less than 48 hours in advance of your booking, I will request the full appointment fee*
what do I need to prepare for the shoot?
Inspiration photos are always helpful so I have an idea of what you’re looking for. Please bring a selection of outfits and lingerie sets, and don’t forget to pay attention to your nails.
how do you handle privacy and digital safety?
I’m so glad you asked! first off: your photos will never be used on my website or other marketing without your explicit consent first. second: I only communicate via encrypted email and my website is built by me and hosted offshore in a nice European country with stronger privacy laws than we currently have here in the united states. your images will be shared with you in an encrypted, private link that I delete 30 days after our session and review.
why don’t you include final images in each package?
I prefer handing off all of the raw images to you right after we shoot instead of editing for two reasons: one, I don’t love sitting behind my computer and would rather be out in the world taking pictures. two: I’ve found that a lot of providers would rather spend their time finessing each photo themselves instead of agonizing over which 12 images they’re allowed to walk away with (trust me, you will want so many more than just 10-20 images after a session). I understand that we are all particular in the specific angles we like of our body and want to reuse photos quite a bit. the reality is that you can edit raw photos on most current iPhones these days, so you will get a wider array of photos to use as well as more control in the final images so they can match your branding and aesthetic exactly as you see fit.
can you also retouch/edit my photos?
yes! please inquire how many retouched images you would like and if you would like any face or tattoo blurring.
