Hello,
Gorgeous!
"I had the most wonderful photo session with Veronica. We started with my makeup being done which made me feel fantastic. I was nervous about my outfits and how I would be in front of the camera for my boudoir session. Not even 5 mins into my session I felt so at home and had so much fun. With every shot Veronica put me at ease and made me feel like a VS Angel. My pictures came out FANTASTIC. I wanted all of them and want to show everyone but they are only for my husband. I couldn't believe the pictures were me. My facial expressions and body language all looked natural because Veronica knew just how to position me and ease my mind. I cannot say enough good things about my session."

SO, WHAT IS BOUDOIR ANYWAY?
JOIN THE VIP FACEBOOK GROUP
BOUDOIR TECHNICALLY IS A FRENCH WORD WHICH MEANS 'A WOMAN'S DRESSING ROOM OR BEDROOM', BUT WE LIKE TO THINK OF IT AS JUST A FANCY WORD FOR WOMEN'S INTIMATE PORTRAITURE. BOUDOIR IS NOT PORNOGRAPHIC. BOUDOIR CAN BE FUN, FLIRTY, BEAUTIFUL, CUTE, SEXY, FEMININE, INTIMATE, CANDID, POSED, OR REALLY ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT IT TO BE.
IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY JOINED OUR PRIVATE VIP GROUP ON FACEBOOK, WE HIGHLY SUGGEST THAT YOU DO!

I initially did this as a wedding gift for my husband. During my shoot, I felt so confident and beautiful and I was blown away by the final images. In the end, it was really a present to myself!
Maryland's Best Boudoir Experience
WE WANT TO HELP YOU FEEL BEAUTIFUL NOW, JUST THE WAY YOU ARE. WE FLATTER YOU WITH HAIR AND MAKEUP STYLING, A WARDROBE THAT COMPLIMENTS YOUR FIGURE, AND AMAZING LIGHTING AND POSING TECHNIQUES TO HIGHLIGHT YOUR BEST ASS-SETS (SEE WHAT I DID THERE?). I DO NOT BELIEVE IN HEAVY PHOTOSHOPPING. DON'T GET ME WRONG, WE WILL GLADLY REMOVE ALL OF YOUR BRUISES AND PIMPLES, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO OVER MANIPULATE YOUR BODY TO MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE SOMEONE YOU ARE NOT. WE ALREADY LIVE IN A TIME WHERE WE ARE CONSUMED WITH UNREALISTIC BODIES IN THE MEDIA, I WANT TO SHOW YOU THAT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AT THIS VERY MOMENT.
WE BELIEVE THAT BOUDOIR IS THE BEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE YOURSELF, TO CAPTURE YOUR ESSENCE AS YOU ARE NOW. WHEN YOU NEED A REMINDER OF THE STRONG, BEAUTIFUL WOMAN THAT YOU ARE, YOU WILL HAVE A COLLECTION OF AMAZING PORTRAITS TO LOOK UPON. WE LOVE IT WHEN WOMEN COME TO US FOR THEMSELVES. THE IMAGES WE CREATE TOGETHER WILL BOOST YOUR SELF ESTEEM AND YOUR CONFIDENCE, AND THAT SHOULD BE CELEBRATED BY YOU! IT WILL HELP YOU RECLAIM YOUR FEMININITY, YOUR SEXUALITY, TWO THINGS THAT ARE OFTEN LOST AS WE GET CONSUMED WITH OUR LIVES, OUR JOBS, OUR FAMILIES. PUT THAT PEP BACK IN YOUR STEP, AND REFLECT ON THE BODACIOUS BABE YOU ARE. CELEBRATE THE BODY THAT YOU LIVE IN!
"What do I do With Boudoir Photos?"
WE'LL LET YOU IN ON A LITTLE SECRET.... ALL THE WOMEN ON OUR WEBSITE BELIEVED THEY DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THE WOMEN ON OUR WEBSITE! CRAZY RIGHT? BECAUSE HERE YOU SEE THEM BEING SO FIERCE AND SO CONFIDENT. BUT WE CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THEY WERE JUST AS NERVOUS AND FULL OF SELF DOUBT AS YOU ARE. THEY ALL SHOWED UP, PUT THEIR TRUST IN US, AND LET VERONICA COACH THEM THROUGH THE WHOLE DAY.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE PERFECT BODY. YOU ARE NEVER TOO BIG, TOO SMALL, TOO OLD, TOO YOUNG (WELL, I ONLY ACCEPT BOUDOIR CLIENTS WHO ARE 21+) TO DO A BOUDOIR SESSION. BOUDOIR IS FOR EVERYBODY. LET US SHOW YOU.
"I DON'T LOOK LIKE THE WOMEN ON YOUR WEBSITE."
"CAN YOU MAKE ME LOOK THINNER?"
HELL-TO-THE-YES, GIRL! NO BOUDOIR SESSION IS COMPLETE WITHOUT A BOMB, PHOTO-READY FINISH. I ONLY HIRE THE VERY BEST TALENT IN OUR AREA TO SERVE OUR CLIENTS WITH TOP LEVEL HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTISTRY.
MANY OF OUR CLIENTS TELL US THEY RARELY WEAR MAKEUP, AND/OR THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO APPLY MAKEUP FOR THE CAMERA. IF THIS IS YOU, THEN HAVE NO FEAR... WE ARE GOING TO TAKE GREAT CARE OF YOU AND GET YOU THE MAKEUP LOOK THAT SUITS YOU AND YOUR PERSONALITY BEST.
"Do you offer hair and makeup?"
What to wear
Boudoir by veronica
Styling & Wardrobe
We recommend bringing wardrobe options that cover all aspects of your personality. From girl next door, to sultry and sexy, to high fashion and glamorous. Your session is the time to explore every facet of who you are. We've partnered with local boutiques where you'll be able to schedule a fitting and get help from our lingerie experts to find your perfect style and fit.
If you have lots of ideas and outfits and you're having trouble narrowing them down then we always recommend you bring a suitcase full of stuff! ...what?!?
Yes! We recommend you bring lots of things when you arrive and we can help you narrow them down once you arrive for your shoot.
Hear from some our Clients
Maryland's Best Boudoir Experience
BEFORE WE HAVE CREATED YOUR IMAGES, IT IS HARD FOR ME TO GIVE YOU AN EXACT FIGURE AS TO WHAT TO EXPECT. SOME WOMEN COME TO ME AND JUST GET A BASIC ALBUM, OTHERS COME TO ME AND WANT IT ALL AND INVEST SEVERAL THOUSAND ON A VARIETY OF PRODUCTS. OUR MINIMUM PURCHASE POINT IS $3800, BUT AFTER THAT WHAT YOU SPEND IS ENTIRELY UP TO YOU.
FULL DISCLOSURE... IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A QUICK ROLL AROUND THE BED AND A HANDFUL OF DIGITALS SENT TO YOUR EMAIL, WE CAN ACCOMMODATE THAT. BUT THE TRUTH IS, OUR CLIENTS ARE HERE FOR A FULL DAY EXPERIENCE AND WANT ALL the PERKS THAT COME WITH WORKING WITH VERONICA AND THE STAFF HERE. WE INVEST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR TIME INTO EACH OF CLIENT TO ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL AND CUSTOM TAILORED BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE.
THE PROCESS MAY SEEM OVERWHELMING BUT IT IS A TRUE EXPLORATION OF WHO YOU ARE AS A WOMAN. FROM SELF ESTEEM, TO SEXUAL INTERESTS (I.E. WHIPS AND CHAINS, ANYONE?), TO LEARNING TO LOVE YOUR BODY AT THE SIZE THAT IT IS.
LUCKILY FOR YOU, YOU'VE FOUND US! WORKING WITH WOMEN IN BOUDOIR IS ALL WE DO. YOU ARE IN GOOD HANDS WITH US AND WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT YOU DON'T MISS A SINGLE STEP.
BELOW ARE SOME MORE QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD BE ASKING YOUR BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHER!
"DAMN, THERE'S A LOT TO THINK ABOUT... WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS SHOULD I ASK?"
OUR STUDIO BOOKS UP 3-4 MONTHS IN ADVANCE AND OUR PRINTED PRODUCTS CAN TAKE UP TO 8 WEEKS FOR DELIVERY. IF YOU HAVE A SPECIAL OCCASION COMING UP OR WISH TO BOOK A HOLIDAY APPOINTMENT, WE RECOMMEND BOOKING 4-6 MONTHS IN ADVANCE OF THAT DATE.
I NEED MY IMAGES BY XX DATE, WHEN SHOULD I BOOK?
WHAT CAN I EXPECT TO SPEND AT MY REVEAL & ORDERING APPOINTMENT?
WE DO NOT ALLOW GUESTS TO BE PRESENT FOR ANY PORTION OF THE TIME YOU SPEND WITH US. OUR SERVICES ARE BEST DELIVERED IN AN 1-ON-1 ATMOSPHERE WITH YOUR COMPLETE UNDIVIDED ATTENTION
CAN MY SPOUSE/FRIEND/MOM COME TO MY SESSION OR MY ORDERING APPOINTMENT?
The Post-production Process
You can rest at ease knowing that we know what women want when it comes to editing. Our clients love how we do this because we bring out the best in them without changing who they are. We remove those unwanted blemishes, lighten the circles under the eyes, balance skin tones, and add that special touch to leave the image looking like your best and most beautiful self without overdoing it!
Although we love to make you look your absolute best, we encourage you to wear outfits that flatter what you love best about your body and hide those you may not love so much. We're happy to provide our advice and experience on what to wear before the session so don't be shy to ask for help!
