Wondering when the best time to book your boudoir session is? Look no further than this post! Here we have listed all of the deadlines and date information that you need!

This post is designed to set you up for success, ensuring that you never miss the cut-off date for the holidays and making sure you know JUST how long it takes to get your album back so that you’ve got the perfect birthday gift. We had a LOT of sad emails this past season because we were booked to capacity and could not accommodate last-minute requests for boudoir gifts. While we don’t mind being booked up, we do hate having to send the “NO VACANCY” email to clients that are so excited to work with us.

In order to help solve that problem I wanted to our clients know now (yes, in January) what the deadlines are for the ENTIRE year. This helps you to plan out your boudoir session, and probably gives you a bit of relief since you now know exactly how much time you’ll need between your session and your requested delivery date. I’m hoping that this helps us all have a little less anxiety next year as we are planning your boudoir session!

The bonus of having these dates out now? You can go ahead and get a head start on booking your session, giving you first dibs on dates and times (also remember that weekend availability is only available to book until January 31st, meaning if you’d like a weekend in November then it’s best to snag it now!).

A couple of things:

• Print Deadline means this is when your session needs to happen in order to have your images printed (be it in an album, prints, or otherwise)

• Digital Deadline means this is when your session needs to happen in order to receive your images digitally only.

Now for the big picture!

• General boudoir delivery deadlines (gift for yourself, birthdays, anniversaries, new job, etc)

  • Printed Images- No less than 2 weeks before your deadline

  • Digital Images- No less than 1 week before your deadline

• Valentine’s Day-

  • Printed Images- January 31, 2019

  • Digital Images- February 3, 2019

• Hanukkah and Christmas 2019

  • Printed Images- December 3, 2019

  • Digital Images- December 13, 2019

And there you have it! These are all of the major deadlines that you’ll need to keep in mind when booking your boudoir session with OWN. Our travel schedule during the summer and fall will affect availability for sessions, but not shipping of products!
