I know looking at my pricing and collections can be a little overwhelming. You're probably thinking to yourself, "Whoa, why does a boudoir shoot cost this much?" I totally get it. I would think the same thing if I didn't know what goes into creat ing excellent images. But I can assure you that you will truly get your money's worth.
Many people don't know the actual process of a professional shoot and what it entails. There is a lot more that goes into it besides you showing up and me handing over the images from my camera to you. I have an entire process leading up to, during, and after the shoot that I have spent countless hours perfecting. preparation One of the reasons boudoir photography costs so much is because of the informa tion I provide before and during sessions. I get it, most of you have never done this type of shoot before, and I don't expect you to know how to prepare or what to think. So, with my ten years of professional experience, I've put together tips and questionnaires that I send through email to all of my clients leading up to their shoots. I like to get to know my clients before-hand so I can capture their vision and make them feel as comfortable as possible. After all, the more comfort able and prepared you are, the better the images will turn out.
90% of my clients have never posed in front of a camera, which is completely fine, that is why you are hiring me. During the shoot, I will pose every little bit of you with my expertise. I have spent the last 13 years learning how to pose and what the best and most fl attering angles are so I can pose you in the most flattering and flawless way possible.
