Frequently asked questions

  • Posing

    The most common question I get asked is "Am I supposed to know what to do?"... and the answer is NO! I direct you from start to finish. PLUS I have lots of little tricks to make you comfortable and capture your pure, joyous energy.

  • outfits

    If you're not a “lingerie” person, you don't have to wear it now! I want to celebrate you as you are. I've photographed folks in everything from Hanes underwear to fully clothed.

  • nudity

    Nudity is not required during your session, however, many folks like to give it a shot. I recognize that nudity is a sensitive subject for some, and strive to make you as comfortable as possible during the session. Your pre-session questionnaire will ask you a series of questions related to your comfort with nudity and partial nudity. It is not mandatory to be nude in my space, however, some folks do change their mind and decide to try some nude poses after the session starts and get more comfortable.

  • body hair

    If body hair is something that you embrace and makes you YOU, then no shaving needed! However, If you choose to shave, please be aware that razor burn may be visible on camera, so if you have sensitive skin, then leave a few days between shaving and your session.

  • hair & makeup

    I don't include hair and makeup in the session fee, but there is an option to add hair and makeup services onto your sessions when you book. I make it easy for you by contacting the artists I work closely with and schedule them to meet us at the studio at the beginning of your session time!

  • friends & other guests

    Please do not bring anyone to the session with you. It's very distracting and it can be difficult for you to relax and enjoy the session when someone you know is watching. Any guest(s) will be asked to leave upon arrival. I am here to be your cheerleader and biggest advocate - I promise to do my best to make you feel supported and comfortable during our time together.

  • spray tans

    If you choose to get a spray tan before your session, please do it a few days beforehand and not on the same day. The tanning solution may damage studio furniture and/or linens and you will be charged to replace them.

  • drugs & alcohol

    If you are visibly intoxicated in the studio, you may be asked to leave and no refunds will be given.

  • no photoshop, slimming, or altering

    The only editing I do is cropping and color adjustments. That means, I don't use any programs to slim you, smooth you, or alter your appearance. I remove small blemishes by request only.

  • deposits

    A $75 non-refundable deposit is due at the time of booking in order to secure your session date and time. You will be invoiced for the session balance separately and it will reflect the remaining balance and your deposit at paid. The session balance must be paid in full 1 week before the session.

  • payment plans

    Payment plans are available with up to 5 separate payments. please let me know as soon as possible if you'd like one set up. Session payments must be completed in full 1 week (7 days) prior to your session date.
