I KNOW you have questions, girl. Let me help you answer them. Here are the top 10 FAQ’s I’ve received over the years.

1. What is boudoir?

Boudoir by Veronica defines boudoir as intimate portrait photography and a self love experience. I want you to fall in love with yourself in a new way. I am going to show you the beauty in you that has always been there; but I will take your hand and support you the entire way as I walk you through exploring finding a new comfort zone.

2. Will you help me with posing?

100% YES! Put your trust in me, babe. I have photographed over 900 everyday women in my career as a boudoir photographer. Every woman you see on my website is an everyday beautiful woman, just like you. All you need to do is follow my lead, mimic my movements, and be able to take simple instruction. I will coach and pose your body AND your facial expressions.

3. Do you offer hair and makeup?

Hell-to-the-yes! No boudoir session can be complete without it. You will have your hair and makeup done here in our studio as part of your experience with us. I vet and interview the top makeup artists in my area to ensure our clients look their very best on camera. Want a classic, natural look? We can do that. Want that Kim K snatched jaw? We can do that too.

4. What should I wear?

Once you officially become a client you get access to the Client Portal which will house all of the prep guides on how and where to shop for lingerie. I’ve broken down what all of the style are and how they relate to your body type and your level of comfort. You’ll then get my curated list of absolute favorite lingerie retailers that you can trust to shop with. The budget you allocate to your wardrobe is entirely up to you. Some of our clients spend less than $100 on their pieces, and some have been known to spend $600+ on the ultra dreamy luxury brands. You’ll also have access to borrow from our Client Closet to add body jewelry and luxurious robes to your outfits!

5. Do I need to lose weight before having a session?

Absolutely not. I love celebrating with my clients when they achieve their goals, and if weight loss happens to be one of them, I will never invalidate your desire to be the healthiest version of you. However, you do not need to lose a single pound to celebrate yourself as a beautiful woman. We are often conditioned to believe that our worth is tied to our physical beauty. At Boudoir by Veronica I flip it and reverse it. Our physical beauty radiates from our inner beauty and confidence. Don’t rob yourself of self empowerment over what the scale says–you are already worthy of this experience. That cycle ends now. I’m here to encourage you to love yourself at this very moment. Our future selves will thank us for it.

6. When should I book my session?

Although we do take session sooner, I recommend at least two months out; this will give you plenty of time prepare without feeling rushed to find the perfect outfits. The calendar books up quickly though especially during the holiday season starting in August and wrapping up in March. Turn around for printed products is 6 weeks, so make sure to plan ahead. Or stay on our email list to try and snag any last minute openings!

7. What is the Image Reveal?

After your session I’ll schedule you for an online Image Reveal within 1 to 3 days after your session date. Whether you’re purchasing an album, a wall art installation, or other display pieces, I love the process of making the artwork come to life in tangible products for you to cherish for a lifetime. I will be your personal hype woman and concierge to help you choose your absolute favorite images of yourself.

8. Can I bring a friend?

Yes and no. If you feel you would like to bring a guest or a chaperone, they may be in the studio during hair and makeup. I’ll ask them to leave the studio for the duration of your shoot. Anyone not included in purchasing decisions in not allowed to be present during the viewing.

9. Will you be posting my images on social media?

This decision is entirely up to you. I have many clients who chose to remain private, while some clients opt for an “anonymous only” release where I can share only the images that don’t show their face or any distinguishing marks, others don’t mind at all and see it as their public declaration of self-love an encouragement for other women. Whether the decision to remain private is personal or professional, I hold client privacy of the highest importance and support any decision you make that you feel is right for you.

10. Do you offer payment plans?

Absolutely! I understand that for some of our clients, working with me and my tea, is an investment they need to carefully consider. While some of my clients swipe a credit card with ease, others need more time to arrange their finances. Our incentive program, the Pre-Session Payment Plan, was designed with the babe in mind who would benefit from booking up to 8 months out to take advantage of making smaller installment payments on a desired collection. When their session date finally arrives, they’ll have their collection paid up in full.

For clients who want financing options without the long wait for their session, I utilize a 3rd party financing company called Affirm who will issue you a virtual credit card to shop directly with our company. I also take all major credit cards (many clients will sign up for one with points or special zero interest financing), as Ill as PayPal credit.
