Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Some common questions about Boudoir Photography
What is Boudoir Photography?
Boudoir Photography is the newest sexy trend in wedding, bridal and portrait photography. Boudoir Photography are beautiful and tastefully done sexy portraits, usually given as a gift from a wife to husband, or bride to groom.
These are a perfect "for his eyes only" wedding day gift for a groom, but you don't need to be a bride to do this. You can do boudoir photography even if you have already been married for a couple of years or more!
Boudoir Photography is usually taken wearing lingerie, underwear and other revealing outfits. It can also be taken as implied nudes wherein the woman is nude but nothing is showing, for example, covering the breasts with hands or shots from the back.
What does the word "Boudoir" mean?
The word "Boudoir" (boo'dwär', -dwôr') noun is a French word that means "to sulk or pout" and can also refer to a woman's private sitting room, bedroom or dressing room.

When should I schedule the Boudoir Photography session?
If you plan to give this as a gift, I recommend that you schedule the session at least 4 or 5 weeks in advance of when you want the gift to be ready to allow time for editing and printing.
If you are getting married, I advise that you DON'T do the boudoir photography session on the morning of your wedding as the wedding day itself is stressful enough without adding a boudoir session on top of it.
What time of day is the best time to schedule?
Anytime. I use studio lighting to time doesn't matter.
How long does it take to get my Boudoir Photography done?
The sessions usually last around 3 hrs. This includes the time for outfit changes.
Where should I have my Boudoir Photography Session done?
I usually do boudoir photography on-location, either at your home, a friends home or a hotel room (you would need to pay for the hotel room). I am now offering my house if you need a place.
What should I wear for my Boudoir Photography Session?
You can wear lingerie, corset, underwear, even swimwear. You can also wear a man's shirt, a towel or just a blanket. You can also wear jewelry, high heels, stilletos, stockings and other things that you and your man find sexy. Prepare at least three different outfits, or more. Try to prepare outfits in different colors and styles to add variety to your shoot. Reds, blacks, whites and pinks are most popular, but it all depends on your style and taste.
Do you have outfits and props for me to use?
I have just started to collect outfits and props to have my own lingerie closet for my clients. I am gonna be watching for sales and am accepting donations. Tops, gowns, bras and cute props are welcome. Items that touch the pubic area such as underwear and full outfits of the sort will not be available. For health and safety concerns. I will try to get a variety of sizes so there is something for everyone but it will take a while.
Is it okay if I bring someone along for my Boudoir Photo Shoot?
Sure. I want you to feel safe and relaxed so you can bring a girl-friend along. She can also help you with advice on your outfit, makeup and hair. For safety issues Men are not allowed.
Is it okay if I have a sip of wine or champagne before the shoot?
A glass of wine or champagne will help you loosen up for the shoot. Just remember you are probably the one driving. :)
Will you be posting my images on your website or blog?
I will not be posting any images of you without written consent. I respect your privacy and will go along with whatever you decide. I do however ask that you pick up to 3 images for me to use on my blog or website but this is not mandatory. I can use shots that you will not be recognizable in if you like.
