We start with a free consultation (no strings attached) where we get to know you, what you want from the session, share our client closet, products, portfolio samples, and answer any questions you have.
Session Preparation Guide
When you book a session, you will get our session preparation guide with detailed advice on how to prepare in the days or weeks ahead of your session. We'll also start to share inspo and ideas with each other for hair and make-up, poses, etc so that we can form the perfect photo shoot day!
Our Hair & Make-Up professional(s) will help you prepare in-studio! You'll be able to share ideas and inspo for your look so that you can ensure when you step in front of the mirror you'll have the look you want!
You do not need to buy any new outfits or lingerie for the shoot, but you certainly can! What's important is that everything fits properly and the session preparation guide will have recommendations on attire we recommend specifically for your figure! You may also choose something from our Client Closet.
The day of your session is all about YOU! Your session will be a few hours (2-4 depending upon your package) and will be framed after the ideas you've shared with us since your consultation (which scenes you like, what outfits you brought, what kind of images you're looking for, etc).
We'll have refreshments available for a sip or a snack throughout the session!
You'll have the opportunity to wear 2-4 different outfits depending upon your package. Each outfit will be captured in various poses and settings!
If we're in our studio, we have multiple scene options available and, if you're feeling bold, we can incorporate some outdoor images in the private green space out back. Or if we're on-location at your home or a destination, then we'll find several areas to use for our boudoir scenes.
Anika will coach you on poses & facial expressions. She'll be right there showing you exactly how to do it!
Feeling a Little Nervous About Being Solo?
If you're shooting a solo session, you can come solo or you can bring a companion if you feel more comfortable. You can bring any person you'd like.
While you take a short snack break and relax after your session, we'll prepare your images and then we'll do a reveal on the big screen! No waiting weeks to see your images! We are proud to share them right away!
Same Day Album Customization
Once you've seen your images, you'll select the ones you want in your album and then you can select from various custom album embellishments. These include things like cover materials and colors, page colors, page thickness, album cover titles/designs printing, etc.
You can also select any add-on products that you'd like (you can do this same-day or at a later date).
We'll email you a proof of your album within 2 days following your session, and you'll be able to provide your feedback, any requested changes to the layouts, etc and then it's off to production!
Production times vary based upon the product. Typical production and shipping time is 2 weeks. The Handmade Album is 6-8 weeks. As soon as your products arrive, we'll arrange for a pick-up and product reveal!
