What Are You Waiting For? Time is running out!
I shoot many styles of women’s portraiture including head-shots, glamour, editorial, fitness, pinup… Boudoir photography has been one of the hottest gifts for the past few years but we’ve noticed a huge increase in its popularity in 2017. Not only is it empowering and a confidence supercharger for the women that choose this style of portraiture, every recipient of this gift has said that it was the sexiest, most personal and amazing gift they’ve received. Who doesn’t want to open a gift of sexy images of the women they love wearing lingerie, his shirt or perhaps, just the bed sheet?
A client recently shared the reaction her photos got:
He opened the box…”Wow!” Then he quietly looked at all the photos with a look of astonishment on his face. When he finished he smiled and said “Can I look at them all again?” When he was done he said “I am floored!!!!- I can’t believe you would do this. That photographer did an amazing job, she must have made you feel so comfortable to be able to take these shots!! She captured what I see every day when I look at you… You’re beautiful, sexy, and mine. You look like a super model. This is by far the best gift anyone has ever given me!!! I love that you did this for me and I love you.”
This is so much more than just having a few pictures taken, both for the woman coming into the studio and the person she is gifting the photos to. This is an all-day event that we plan carefully with each client to capture something unique for each person. I love each woman’s session and we all have so much fun no matter the age or reason for the shoot.
The problem arises when women don’t realize that a session with me should be booked anywhere from 3 to 4 weeks in advance and that it takes another 3 to 4 weeks to view, select and receive there printed images or books. Each of our photoshoots are custom designed for our clients so that we can provide the hair, makeup and photo styling that you have envisioned for your perfect session. In the weeks before your photoshoot, the team assigned to your session will work with you in a private Pinterest board to choreograph images that help inspire you and it gives you a chance to shop for outfits, get a mani-pedi, cut / color your hair… all in preparation for your session date. One to two weeks after your shoot, you’ll be scheduled to select your favorite finished images and choose how you’d like to have them presented. It then takes about 2-3 weeks to have them prepared, ready for you to pick up.
So, if you’re thinking about surprising your significant other with amazing images for Christmas, you’ll want to think about scheduling a session soon. Our calendar books up quick around this time of the year and the last date I’ll be scheduling a photoshoot for Christmas gifts will be November 30th which means you’ll need to schedule your shoot before October 31st. Don’t miss this opportunity for the gift they will cherish forever.
