HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY BOUDOIR SESSION?
When my clients book boudoir sessions with me, I send a guide and questionnaire that helps prepares them, and allows me learn more about what they want for their sessions! The guide includes stretching techniques and tips for those perfect poses, styling suggestions, fake tan do’s and don’ts, and more!
The questionnaire helps me determine the type of boudoir experience and look my client desires, and also helps me learn more about their personal preferences! We also have a phone chat to go over everything they send back, and want out of their boudoir session!
IS IMAGE SHARING REQUIRED TO WORK WITH BRAMER BOUDOIR BABES?
Boudoir sessions are 100% private and are NEVER shared without my clients permission. I do offer a discounted rate if clients allow me to share their images. I value and respect my clients privacy, and only share images with my clients permission signed on their contract.
DO YOUR RETOUCH EVERY IMAGE?
Professional retouching is included in every session. I understand that all of my clients have different visions and desires. Some of my clients rock their stretch marks and every curve proudly, and don’t want to be retouched. Other clients want to flatten their tummy, enhance their curves, smooth their skin, and cover up their scars. I ask all of my clients their ideal amount of retouching before our session. If you’re not sure, I can just do my thing ;) and promise you’ll love the outcome of the images. If there’s something you feel particularly self-conscious about, please let me know.
WHERE DOES THE SESSION TAKE PLACE?
I leave it up to my clients on where they want their boudoir session to take place. Home-based sessions always seem to be the most comfortable for my clients, and make the best memories. But, if they’re feeling adventurous for a change in scenery, I have worked with multiple studios & airbnbs that are sure to match any vibe they are wanting!
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO POSE. I’M NOT A MODEL. HELP!
This is my most commonly asked question! Don’t worry, I’ll be bossing you around the entire shoot ;). Most women are surprised at how much stretching is involved in the poses. I like to joke that you’ll probably feel like you went to a luxurious yoga class instead of a photo-shoot. Some poses may feel weirder than others, but if it feels a bit weird, you’re doing it right!
I value open communication, which allows us to achieve any desired poses you may want, as well as my directed poses.
WHEN WILL I GET MY IMAGES BACK?
My standard turn around time is 2 weeks, but if you’re doing your boudoir session as a last-minute gift to your partner or yourself, we can discuss a faster delivery!
DO I BRING MY OWN LINGERE?
I encourage clients to bring their own lingerie, so the fit is perfect! If they don’t own any lingerie, I do have limited available options. Also, boudoir doesn’t have to be in lingerie, sometimes the sexiest pictures are in your man’s shirt, or just bed sheets!
WHAT KIND OF PROPS DO YOU HAVE?
My boudoir props range from angel wings to wips. Before your session we’ll discuss your vision, and what type of props fit your desired vibe and aesthetic!
CAN I BRING SOMEONE WITH ME TO MY SHOOT?
You’re welcome to bring a friend for the hair and makeup portion of your session, if you choose to include that in your package. But I value the intimacy of each Boudoir session between my clients and myself.
CAN I DO MY OWN HAIR AND MAKEUP TO SAVE MONEY?
Hair and makeup are OPTIONAL in Bramer Boudoir Babes’ packages! If you feel most comfortable and beautiful doing your own getting-ready-routine, then more power to you.
DO YOU OFFER A PAYMENT PLAN?
My standard payment plan is 30% to hold your date, then the remaining 70% is due the day before your session. If you need to break it up more, we can discuss what is easiest for you!
WHAT’S YOUR REFUND POLICY? CAN I RESCHEDULE?
I understand that life happens! If you ask me to reschedule with less than a 2 week notice, the 30% portion of your session is not refundable. This is because I’m blocking out that day or time for you, and potentially paying a makeup artist or studio space to do the same. I’m also turning away other clients because I’m reserving that day or time for you.
If you provide more than a 2 week notice, you may transfer the 30% portion of the session fee you’ve already paid to a future date.
Due to the custom nature of photography, the session fee and anything you purchase is not refundable. I am dedicated to ensure you love your photos.
You’ll have final say on all retouching and final images before they go to print or post.
