Tips to help you get the best out of the session.
What
is a Boudoir Portrait?
~ This Style of Portraits, main purpose is
to show you off as sexy, cute, flirty, mischevious, sensuous etc. It works
with your comfort level. It is up to you as to what you want to reveal or
not.
Hair
& Make-Up
~
I may supply a MakeUp/Hairstylist or you may have it done by someone else.
It is your choice. My makeup artists are skilled at applying make up for photography.
If you decide to have it done by a salon be sure to let them know that you
are going to be photographed.
The
benefit of having it done by my MakeUp Artist is that she will be here to
make sure it is properly done and make any adjustments if needed from the
first few images.
Themes
~ There are many too choose from. It may be
Pin-Up, Glamour, Fashion Inspired, Maxim Style, Uniforms, Business Suit
up to Playboy Style if you like.
Clothing
Choices
~ Make sure that you bring clothing that you
feel sexy in and its accessories. That means matching Bras and Panties, Teddies,
Corsets, His Shirt.
Accessories jewelry, shoes, pantyhose (nude), anything too add to the look.
Your
Privacy
~ It is guaranteed. Due to its intimate nature
your images will never be shown without written permission by you.. It is
understood that this is for Someone Special and not to be seen by others.
We use Professional Labs and Album Manufacturers that Safeguard your Privacy.
Your
Body Image
~ Women come in different sizes and shapes.
They are not all skinny model types. Each woman has her beauty and it will
shine through. I have been doing this type of photography for many years and
have never had any disappointments. I will emphasize your best features and
minimize the others.
Remember the person that you are doing this for loves you the way you are.
Nudity/Semi-Nudity/Implied
~ These are you choices and they are respected.
You will not be intimidated or made to do what you do not want. I am very
easy to work with and will guide you through the posing. You will become comfortable
and then the real you will shine through. I have been in business over 30
years. My main purpose is to get you the best and sexiest image possible.
Retouching
~ Is included and we can fix just about any
problem. There are additional art charges when it comes to extensive retouching.
I can suggest ways of getting around this without having to get into art work.
I try to do most of my work in the camera and with the MakeUp Artist but there
is always some need for retouching.
Session
Location
~ I usually do these session in the comfort
of my home studio. It is not lavish but it serves its purpose. You are the
center of interest. Sessions may be done on location, at your home, hotel
or any other place you may want. I have done sessions in a salon that was
owned by the client. I have had a request to do a session at a Airport Hangar
because the client was a Helicopter Pilot. So you see the opportunities are
boundless.
Morning
of and the Day After
~
Drink plenty of water, wear loose clothing. Avoid tight fitting garments because
they leave elastic impressions. Lastly, because you will be asked to hold
poses that make you look good. This may give you some soreness that night
or the next day. Please feel free to discuss any concerns you may have prior
to the session. .........Thank You.
