Only with your explicit permission. Many clients choose to keep their images completely private, and that is always respected. After you see your images, you’ll decide whether you’d like to allow sharing or keep your photos 100 percent confidential.

Professional hair and makeup is included in four of the five Experiences. The only Experience that does not include glam is the Crystal Experience.

Hair and makeup is done in studio and typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours before your session begins.

Not necessarily. You are welcome to bring pieces you already love, but you will also have access to the client closet during your session.

The client closet includes a variety of lingerie pieces selected specifically for boudoir photography.

If you would prefer something brand new to keep, you can also shop the Curated Boutique at shop.bondageandbows.com for boudoir-ready pieces chosen specifically for sessions at the studio.

Session length depends on the Experience you choose. Total studio time can range from about 30 minutes to up to 4 hours, including hair, makeup, and your photoshoot.

Retouching typically takes about two weeks.

After your Reveal Session, your digital gallery will be delivered within 24 hours. Production times for albums and other products will vary depending on the item, and we will discuss expected delivery timelines during your Reveal appointment.

Not at all. Most of my clients have never done a photoshoot before. I demonstrate every pose and guide you through the entire process so you never have to guess what to do.

Every image receives professional retouching. Temporary things like blemishes, bruises, or stray hairs can be cleaned up while still keeping your images natural and true to you.

I do not alter body shapes or sizes. The only adjustments I may make are small refinements, such as smoothing minor bulges created by lingerie straps.

Before your session, you’ll complete a questionnaire where you can share your editing preferences so the final images reflect both your comfort level and your natural beauty.
