FAQ
Excited about your Boudoir experience? Let me answer some common questions.
Pricing for the Luxury Boudoir Experience starts at only R500. I am here to help you through the whole experience so you can get exactly what you want. Email or phone me to find out more or to schedule a free planning session! I like to get to know everyone before a shoot so you’ll be a lot more relaxed when you arrive for your photoshoot.
Over the years, I’ve photographed women of all ages, shapes and sizes. Almost no one comes in knowing how to pose, but I’ll be guiding you the whole way through your shoot, and you’ll leave with amazing photos. Your friends will think you’re a pro! You are hiring me to make you look and feel the best you ever have, and you will leave the shoot with a new found confidence. You only have one job – relax and have fun!
Not unless you say it’s OK and you sign a model release. Every client on my website has signed a model release allowing me to use her photos on the internet and social media. Privacy is extremely important to me and I will never post images of you online without your permission. If you don’t want the images shared, that is 100%. If you’re OK with me posting your photos online and give me permission, I would LOVE to share them so that other women can get an idea of what the experience meant to you.
Yes, I do retouch the images. However, I don’t want to make you look like somebody else, so I tend to restrict editing to temporary blemishes that will be gone in a couple of days (like a scratch or a bruise). During your free planning session, I will ask you to complete a questionnaire about any specific retouching you would like to be done, such as removal of tattoos or scars.
Usually, the shoot takes place at my home in Hoedspruit which has plenty of indoor and outdoor space, as well as a swimming pool. This allows me to get a variety of shots of you in different poses. We designed the house ourselves so that the light coming through the large windows would be perfect for photo shoots. Shoots can also be done at your home, any of the B&B’s I use, or even an outdoor location.
Absolutely! Having your hair and makeup done is an integral part of the experience. This also gives you a chance to sit back, relax with a glass of bubbly, and chat to us while you are having your hair and makeup done.
Ah yes, the proverbial elephant in the room! Some women are unsure about a male boudoir photographer, while some prefer them. Remember, I am a professional concentrating on creating the best images for you. This means that I am constantly thinking about factors such as lighting, poses and other technical aspects of the shoot, and not just looking at you. I guarantee a completely comfortable, professional, and FUN atmosphere. One thing is certain, I will capture images that both you and your partner will enjoy!
Of course! I am here to help. Once your shoot is booked I can then make recommendations on attire and themes and give you easy ways of making it all come to life.
Yes! After I’ve finished doing the necessary retouching, you come back to view your images and discuss product options over chocolate and wine. Depending on what you’d like to order (fine art album, luxury metallic wall print, etc.), the delivery time is between two and four weeks.
Please do! I highly encourage that you bring a friend along to your shoot. Also, ask about my specials for booking with friends and boudoir parties.
