The thought of a boudoir session can be scary. When talking to women about their session, I get asked all kinds of questions. So I wanted to compile a list of the most frequently asked questions to give you some insight on preparing for a boudoir session with me!
DO YOU SHARE MY PHOTOS?
One of the most common questions we receive is “Do you share my photos?” Answer: Our number 1 priority is making sure our ladies are comfortable and we will ONLY share if you give KAP permission to share. We understand some ladies are not comfortable with us showing photos from her boudoir session and we never ever ever make anyone agree to showing her photos. We have an optional Model Release form that every lady has the option to sign or not. You don’t sign, we don’t post or show. The only time the model release is required, is when we are having a model release special because we are trying something new or we need an updated portfolio etc… Some ladies will even agreed to our model release but ask us not to show her face. And that is ok as well. This is your session and your photos. We will always respect your wishes.
DO YOU SUPPLY LINGERIE?
Yes we do have a large collection of outfits including heels ranging in size from 6.5 – 10.0 and some accessories as well that you are more than welcome to borrow from. However, we do always ask you to bring a few outfits of your own as well because we can not guarantee size and fit. We go over this more extensively once you schedule a session.
I DON’T OWN LINGERIE! I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO WEAR OR WHERE TO SHOP! HELP?!?
No worries, as stated above, we do have a very large boudoir closet to help you out. We will also email you a list of places to shop and also a list of what items look good and what doesn’t. So, you will be well taken care of. 🙂
HOW MANY OUTFITS DO WE GET? HOW MANY OUTFITS SHOULD I BRING?
We typically get through 4-5 outfits/looks. We ask our ladies to bring at least 4-6 different looks and then when you are here at the studio, you can look through ours as well. We will then choose the best outfits for you. Also remember to bring a variety of items. Also a good rule of thumb is, if you would not wear it to work then it is probably perfect for your shoot!
IS HAIR AND MAKEUP INCLUDED?
YES!!! Professional hair and makeup is such an essential part of the boudoir photography experience; it can make or break your photo shoot and that’s why we only work with the best makeup and hair artists! Our professional stylists have years of training and experience. Not only do they know how to give you the perfect look you’re wanting, but most importantly they know how to do makeup for the particular lighting and retouching techniques we use.
Hair and makeup is a fundamental part of the experience and the transformations are amazing. Our team will help you create the look you are going for. One of the best parts of the experience is for once, someone else is going to take care of YOU. It’s an amazing day of pampering.
WILL YOU EDIT/PHOTOSHOP MY PHOTOS?
We do light edits with exposure and color balance. We also ask you pre-session what extensive editing you would like. This way your session is catered to you. Some ladies that have a mole on their cheek may love their mole while others say “it’s being removed next month, so get rid of it” Same goes for stretch marks or cellulite. Some say leave it but most say get rid of it. It’s all up to you.
