Check out some of our most frequently asked questions, then reach out to us if you still have questions!

GOT SOME QUESTIONS?

LET US ANSWER THEM FOR YOU!

Is hair and makeup included?

Hair and makeup are not included in our boudoir session. If you wish to have your hair and makeup done professionally, we can provide recommendations for local professionals. We have a dressing room where your hair and makeup artist can prepare you for your session.

Is hair and makeup necessary?

No, hair and makeup by a professional is not necessary. Many of our clients do their hair and makeup and their photographs turn out just as fabulous as those who have their hair and makeup done. If dark smokey eyes and curly hair are not your look, don’t do it! But if you want to vamp it up and do something completely out of your comfort zone, do it! Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable with how you look.

Should I go to a tanning salon?

Like the hair and makeup, this is completely up to you. If you do decide to tan, we do have a few recommendations. We recommend tanning a few days before your session since tanning solutions can take some time to set. Watch out for tan lines. We also recommend exfoliating the day after your tanning session to make sure your skin is smooth and streak-free.

I don’t know how to pose– what do I do?

Don’t worry about it! I am here to help you every step of the way. It is my responsibility to pose you from head to toe. If the pose does not look right, we will make adjustments together to make you look fabulous!

How many outfits should I bring?

We recommend bringing at least two outfits in addition to some basics like sexy undies in black, white, or your/his favorite color.

Do my outfits have to be lingerie?

Not at all! Your outfit could be your partner’s old baseball jersey and glove! We have photographed everything from an orange construction jacket with a hard hat, to ski jackets with snowboards.

Do I have to take nude photos?

Only if you want to!

Will my photos be posted online?

We will only share them if you permit us. I do ask my clients for the ability to share their photographs with potential clients, but if you wish to keep your photos personal or are afraid someone might see them online, you can say no! We will respect your wishes–we only share photographs that we have permission to share.

How long are the sessions?

We do not set a time limit for a session, but they typically take a couple of hours from start to finish. This does not include hair and makeup, which adds about an hour to the session. If you have a time constraint on the day of the session, please let us know so we can plan accordingly.

Where are we located?

We are located in downtown Bozeman, with lots of parking, and plenty to do after your session wraps up!
