1) How do I pose? I’m nervous I’ll be awkward: Its completely normal to feel nervous about posing. I will be helping and guiding you along the entire session…giving you ideas, helping you to move just the right way…and I will never pose you in an unflattering way. You will go from a little nervous to have an entire Top Model experience:)

2) I’m nervous my pictures will be bad because I’m not super skinny: We, as women, are our biggest critics. Boudoir is an experience for every woman! Women of all shapes, sizes, ages…You will leave feeling empowered and having tons of fun. I will always pose you in a way to show off your best assets!

3) Do you retouch photos? No one is perfect, lets be honest. We spend our time seeing women on TV and Magazines who have been completely altered. Boudoir will play up your best angles, sides, exc. After I shoot the session ALL of the photos will go through a complete editing process to soften and make you look the absolute best you can. Your online gallery will only show your edited photos.

4)Any advice on preparing for the shoot? While your shopping for lingerie online or in catalogs take special notice to the ways the ladies are lifting their chins, opening their lips, popping their hips and over all just looking totally woman! Take sometime to practice your faces in the mirror. Yes, you’ll feel silly but it will help your confidence the day of the shoot.

5)Where will the shoot take place? The shoot will take place at my very posh, downtown Grand Rapids studio. The address of the studio is 401 Hall St. SW, Grand Rapids Mi 49503, Suite 210. Please do not arrive early or late for your session as appointment are usually scheduled back to back.

6) Do you have professional hair/makeup available? Yes! I work with amazing vendors that come right to my studio to give you a total, pampered boudoir experience! Its a little bit of an investment but you’re pictures will look COMPLETELY different when having a makeup artist who knows how makeup can pop in the camera.

7)Do you have albums? Yes!! Albums are the absolute best way to display your photos while still being able to keep them hidden away. After all, these photos are for his eyes only:) You can see samples of all of my albums the day of your shoot.

I believe tasteful Boudoir Photography is an experience that every woman should have. You are beautiful and you deserve to have high quality photos to show that!
