Boudoir photoshoots are already intimidating to think about, but listen, you first have to BOOK your boudoir session in order to think about planning it. I’m here to help you with that first hurdle… BOOKING. This post should tell you everything you need to know about the process of booking your boudoir shoot!

The first step of booking your boudoir session is to find your boudoir photographer! Here in Atlanta there are some AMAZING and incredible photographers. If you love us but find that we don’t really check all of your boxes then we can act like a great second-date and introduce you to our friends that you might like better. No hard feelings; let’s all come out of this better than ever!

1. The second step of booking your boudoir session (if you’re booking with us, I cannot speak for any of our above friends) is to choose the session you’d like! We have our full session pricing list right here. Our pricing sheet is set up like a Chipotle menu, but the results are way sexier and involves less beans. If you have any questions or need clarity then don’t hesitate to ask questions before moving to the third step!

2. The third step to booking your boudoir photoshoot is to select your date and time! Once you’ve decided on the boudoir session that best works for you use our online booking calendar to select your date. From there you’ll be asked to add any additional items to your session, but please know that our options are limited. If you’d like for us to find a peacock for a series of images then I’m afraid you’ll be on your own… though I’ll gladly photograph the peacock.

3. The fourth (and final!) step in booking your boudoir session is to pay your deposit! Our sessions require a deposit of 25% of your session fee. Payments are all made online using credit/debit cards, but you can pay your last payments in cash if you choose. So many of our clients are hiding payments and so we get it!

And there you have it! It’s a simple four-step process that takes all of about 4minutes if you know what you’re looking for (maybe 8 minutes if you’re coming into it completely blind). Once your session is booked we will welcome you into our arms with love and FUN mail. Each client gets a welcome box from us that is full of pampering goodies, boudoir session info, and some discount cards for local lingerie shops. We want to make sure you’re well taken care of and we want to make sure you have fun from the start. You’ll get entirely too many emails from us about directions to the studio, what kind of snacks you want at your session and what to wear for your boudoir session. These can be ignored, but we definitely prefer you look at them at least once :)

We cannot wait to have you!!!

And here is one of those booking links, just in case you have all of the info you need.

You are fully responsible for making sure your poses for your boudoir session are perfect, so you better start practicing!

“Will you help me know how to pose?” is probably the #1 question we get from clients. I’m here to tell you that we will absolutely help you pose and guide you the entire way throughout your session.

For me, posing ideas come very naturally and I don’t necessarily need to write down a plan of attack for posing. That being said, I do love to know a general direction or “vibe” that you’d like to go with. Kinky posing isn’t for everyone, and neither is more sweet and innocent posing.

Boudoir photography is meant to be intimate, personal, and often sensual in nature. Here are a few classic boudoir posing vibes that you might consider (and we can even do ALL of them at your shoot if you’d like!):

1. The classic pin-up pose: This pose involves lying on your back on a bed, with one leg bent and resting on a stack of pillows or a chair.

2. The "come hither" pose: In this pose, you might sit on the edge of a bed or chair, with one leg crossed over the other and your body turned towards the camera.

3. The "bedroom eyes" pose: This pose involves lying on your stomach on a bed, with your head turned towards the camera and your arms resting above your head.

4. The "sultry" pose: This pose involves sitting on a bed or chair with one leg crossed over the other, and your body turned towards the camera. You might also try placing one hand on your hip or behind your head for added glamour.

5. The "sexy silhouette" pose: This pose involves standing with your back to the camera, with your arms raised above your head and your body turned slightly to the side.

Remember, boudoir photography is all about capturing your OWN personality and style. Don't be afraid to try out different poses and see what works best for you. I’ll always show you images on the back of the camera, so if you’re not feeling something we can pivot in order to make sure you’re 100% in love with your boudoir images.
