Boudoir is a luxury experience for many of my clients, and one that they plan out months ahead of time. For weddings, birthdays, or anniversaries, I recommend booking your session 2–3 months in advance so there’s plenty of time for your reveal, product selection, and delivery. On a tighter timeline? Still reach out—I’ll always do my best to accommodate and will let you know upfront if a specific turnaround isn’t possible.
I’m booking for a special occasion—when should I schedule?
Not at all! Almost every woman who walks through my doors says, “I don’t know what to do in front of a camera.” That’s where I come in. I’ll guide you head-to-toe with flattering boudoir poses, soft direction, and easy prompts so you always feel natural and confident. All you need to do is show up and breathe — I’ll take care of the rest.
Absolutely! Your privacy is my priority. All images are delivered on a beautifully packaged USB drive, and nothing is ever shared without your written consent. If you’d like to be featured, you’ll have the option to sign a model release at the Image Reveal and choose exactly where your images may be shared.
Will my photos stay private? Can I choose what’s shared?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes! Professional hair and makeup are included with every session. You’ll begin your day at an exclusive, by-appointment-only salon just 10 minutes from my studio. My trusted stylists know how to create a polished, camera-ready look that enhances your natural beauty, so you feel confident from the very start.
What happens after my session? When will I see my photos and how do I order my artwork?
First, you’ll leave the studio feeling like that woman—confident, radiant, and completely celebrated. Within about two weeks, we’ll meet again for your private Image Reveal & Ordering Appointment, where you’ll see your fully retouched images for the first time. Once approved, your album is handcrafted with care and typically arrives in 3–4 weeks.
How much does a session cost?
The session fee is $450 and includes professional hair & makeup, wardrobe guidance, access to the Bellamy Style Collection, and a 90-minute guided photoshoot in my studio. Images and products are sold separately, with a minimum investment of $1,500. Most clients choose from curated collections of albums, folio boxes, and wall art designed to become timeless keepsakes.
What if I need to reschedule?
Life happens! If you need to reschedule, just let us know at least 7 days in advance and we’ll happily move your session date.
Is hair and makeup included in the session?
I’m nervous — do I have to know how to pose?
Do you edit or retouch my images?
Yes — I provide gentle, professional retouching on all final images. This means I’ll take care of distractions like blemishes, bruises, or uneven skin tones, while preserving the natural beauty of your skin, hair, and body. My goal is that you still look like you — just the most radiant, confident version.
Where is your studio located, and is it private?
My studio is a private, appointment-only space in Wake Forest, NC, designed with comfort and luxury in mind. Because it’s not a walk-in commercial studio, you’ll have the entire space to yourself during your session. Think of it as your own personal retreat, just outside the bustle of Raleigh.
Do I have to be a certain size, shape, or age to book a boudoir session?
Not at all. Boudoir is for every woman — at every age, stage, and size. Most of my clients are women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, many of whom are rediscovering themselves after kids, career shifts, or major life changes. Confidence photographs better than perfection, and my job is to show you just how stunning you already are.
