the boudoir experience
the details on the boudoir experience, kind words from past couples & your FAQ's answered.
refined, timeless, romantic
It's who you are. Not only that, you're a wife, a mama, a successful woman, someone who's struggled with loving her body or someone who's been comfortable in it. You're an incredibly multifaceted human being worthy of celebrating yourself for who you are.
And I wholeheartedly believe you are a work of ART. The Renaissance got it right in depicting goddess. Soft skin, sweeping curves, delicate touches in powerful and strong women.
Darling, you're a goddess. Powerful and beautiful. Strong and delicate. Bold and romantic. Refined and imperfect. Let's create art that shows you exactly the way you are.
refined, timeless, romantic
We're at this step now! This is our chance to get to know each other a little better. We'll get on a phone call so you get to know more details about the boudoir experience and I get to know more about you! Why you want to do the session, the things you love about yourself, and how to create an incredible luxury experience hand tailored just for you.
step 01: get in touch
After our phone call and you pick your session date, I'll send over the contract & invoice for the session fee. Once I get both the contract and the session fee back, it's officially official! We'll prepare you for your day of pampering and being treated like a literal goddess with a prep guide and pre-session planning consultation...
step 02: officially official
Before your session, we'll jump back on the phone to plan your session! I'm talking about lingerie guidance and prop ideas, poses you want to try and we'll discuss products & collections. I know this is an experience and an investment in yourself and finances do have a role in this too. But never fear, I know how it is and that's why the Boudie Bank is here for you.
step 03: planning the session
You fall in love with your images but your wallet might not be in love which kind of kills the mood. The Boudie Bank is pre-session payment plans to fit your lifestyle so when you come into your session, you have your products already selected and fully paid for so you can truly relax and enjoy the experience! Plus, there are exclusive BONUSES available for my Boudie Bank babes.
step 04: the boudie bank
The session date is here! You'll come into the gorgeous light-filled space we have for the day and get glammed up by our professional hair & makeup artist while you sip on a glass of bubbly. You'll get dressed (or undressed!) and we'll get started on creating absolute magic on camera. You feel like a goddess and you absolutely deserve it.
step 05: the session day!
After your session, you'll head out to grab some lunch for an hour and when you arrive, your gorgeous images will be ready for viewing and when you see them on the screen, you are BLOWN AWAY. You'll select your favorite images for your products and collections that you pre-purchased (thanks Boudie Bank!) and head home feeling like a literal goddess.
step 06: the reveal
In some weeks time, your luxury products will arrive at your front door and you'll be able to gift them to a surprised partner (or yourself!) to enjoy for years to come. Everytime you flip through your heirloom album, you'll admire yourself and know that this experience showed you truly how magical you are.

Boudoir is an investment in yourself. This is you saying that you are worth the experience. When you see your images that make you say "wow, I can't believe that's ME!" then you'll see exactly why it was worth the investment in yourself.
A Session Fee of $400 is due to book your Boudoir Experience.
There is a minimum investment of $1900 but because most women fall in love with more images than they can narrow down, the average investment is $3400.
I know it is an investment though and that's why we have the Boudie Bank, where you can take advantage of a prepayment plan and bonuses available ONLY to those who use the Boudie Bank!
The boudoir Experience
Products & digital images are not included in the session fee and are sold separately.
I've seen it before. You get excited, get glammed up, you're exuding confidence and sexiness. You come to the image reveal and fall in love with ALL. THE. IMAGES. But now you're *slightly* stressed about money, which is definitely killing the vibe. Let's avoid that altogether by using the Boudie Bank. During our pre session phone consult, you decided on your product collection and have made interest-free payments on it in the time leading up to the session date so when it arrives, there is nothing to worry about. Plus because I love to give a little extra, there's some pretty kickass bonuses available ONLY for my Boudie Bank babes.

I totally get it, I'm not natural in front of the camera. But I'll guide you through every pose, tell you where to put your hands and where to look at. It's a different kind of posing but I'm here to help you every step of the way.
06. i'm not a model, i don't know how to pose! is boudoir for me?
You get to see your images the same day! After your session and you select your favorites for your products, you'll receive your products in the mail in 4-6 weeks depending on the item. This is why I recommend scheduling your session 3 months before your wedding so we have plenty of time in case of shipping delays! ;)
05. how long until i get my photos?
The 60 minute boudoir session has time for 2 outfits. I suggest bringing 3-5 outfits with you so you have options in case you change your mind on anything the day of! And if we're making this bridal boudoir, I definitely 10000% recommend bringing in your veil, garter and wedding shoes! It'll be magical, I promise.
04. how many outfits do i get & do i need to supply them?
Yes! This is the most common way my clients make their boudoir session more affordable, is by paying over time. And there's some pretty amazing bonuses for using the payment plan.
03. can i take advantage of a payment plan?
There is a minimum investment of $1800. Most boudoir clients spend $2500-4000 on their experience. Our in house payment plans make this experience more affordable!
02. is there a minimum amount i have to spend?
Yes! You will have your hair and makeup done professionally by one of my incredibly talented makeup artists so you feel your absolute best. This is included in the session fee.
01. is hair & makeup included in the session?
