WHY SHOULD I DO A BOUDOIR SHOOT?
Because you, gorgeous woman, YOU need to know you are beautiful, and feel empowered in your own skin. Uniquely you, no matter what stage of life you're in right now. Reclaim your body for what it is today...not what the media says it should look like, or what you think it could look like. These intimate portrait sessions will capture your beauty and strength. Do it for your own damn self.
WHERE DO BOUDOIR SHOOTS TAKE PLACE?
I have a studio located above our 3 car garage in South Minneapolis. While my husband Bobby and I are business partners at Redmond Digital Media, he has NO part in the boudoir side of our business, so from start to finish, you will ONLY be communicating and interacting with me :)
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Deciding what to wear to your Be Lovely and Free shoot doesn’t need to be stressful! My signature look is “effortlessly beautiful,” which good news for you… probably involves clothes you already have! A bodysuit, oversized sweater, robe, sleep shirt, cropped tshirt or sweatshirt and high waisted panties … you get the idea. Some women opt for lingerie, and many clients opt for a set of tasteful nudes. We have time for 2-3 looks (and yes nude counts as a look!) Don’t stress about your clothes… I’ve done entire sessions with just a blanket or bedsheet :)
I'M NOT A MODEL... HOW WILL I KNOW HOW TO POSE?
I have been photographing women for a DECADE so don’t stress about the posing… I got you :) We’ll chat about your favorite features and focus on those as we get creative and you embrace your beautiful self!! I’ll shoot a variety of clothed, partially clothed, and if you choose, tasteful nudes with exposed breasts and bums. My firm policy is that no pelvic areas will be visible in any of my work. If you’ve seen my work and love it, you’ll love your experience!
WHAT IS THE EDITING PROCESS LIKE?
I’m known for capturing women as they are: naturally beautiful. I will pose you and edit your photos to bring out your most beautiful self. While I will edit your skin to make it look it’s best, I keep any ‘photoshop’ action to a minimum. I will edit out any minor blemishes or skin flaws (so don’t freak out if you wake up on the morning of your shoot with a pimple!) Unless otherwise requested, I will SLIGHTLY lighten scars, stretch marks, and lines on your face, but I will not remove wrinkles or stretch marks because they are all a part of who you are! My standard editing process is focusing on color, contrast, and slight skin smoothing. Any work of mine you’ve seen, follows this process.
WHAT ABOUT COVID-19?
During COVID-19, we are doing everything we can to ensure the health and safety of our clients and everyone we serve. Before and after your shoot, the studio will be cleaned and disinfected. If you’d like any photos in just a sheet or just a blanket (always my favs!) please bring your own and know that whites and neutrals work best. During your shoot, I will wear a mask and will have hand sanitizer available.
WHO WILL SEE MY PHOTOS?
Who sees your photos is up to YOU! Of course, I LOVE when people share their photos with friends and online, however my top priority is to honor whatever you request. Your photos will be delivered on a password protected online gallery. You’ll have the option to say you want no photos shared, only certain photos shared if I ask about them specifically, OR all photos shared. Most ladies get so excited once they see their photos, they give me the go ahead to share away! Bottom line: I will honor whatever level of privacy you prefer.
HOW MUCH SHOULD I PLAN TO INVEST?
Collections start at $475 and most women invest around $1500.
