The first step of booking your Boudoir Session is to schedule a consultation with me, either over video chat or in person .

At this meeting, I will ask you some questions to get an idea of what type of portraits you are interested in.

This is also a chance for us to talk about wardrobe ideas and styling inspiration.

A retainer fee is required to reserve your session date.

You can read the entire step-by-step process at the bottom of this page.

I do most of my photo shoots in my chic Victorian home studio, located in Stratford, Connecticut (pictured below).

This is where I build all of my custom sets like After Dark and Dreamland.

My home studio has luxe antique furniture, cozy textiles, and unique furnishings sure to inspire your creative side.

I travel frequently to Denver, Colorado & Nashville, TN (as well as other cities around the country), and when I do, I shoot on location.

I have dozens of boutique hotel rooms, suites, and short term rentals at my fingertips and enjoy scouting just the right spot for your session.

The La Photographie Experience can be summed up in one word: fun!

My hair and makeup team’s expert styling will make you look and feel your best, while the session itself is relaxed and comfortable.

If you are nervous about being in front of the camera, you will see how easy it is to be yourself.

With my extensive knowledge of retro and modern posing and styling, all you need to do is participate in the action.

Boudoir photography is easier than you think!

I normally schedule consultations 3-7 days in advance and sessions 2-3 months in advance. Occasionally I have unexpected openings, if you need to get in sooner. If you are doing the session to commemorate a special occasion, I recommend shooting at least 30 days before the final photos are needed; a lead time of 60 days is preferred. If you are scheduling a maternity session, I recommend doing the session around 7-8 months. If you’re considering a pre-payment plan, you may consider booking 3-12 months out. We will definitely chat about timing during your consultation.

Absolutely! As soon as you book your session, I will send you my exclusive PDFs, How to Prepare and The Wardrobe Guide, which have all the goods on what to expect and how to prep for your shoot.

We also have a virtual styling consultation before your session where we chat about wardrobe options and more.

While my client closet does offer some select wardrobe options, including silky vintage slips and fantastic accessories, I mostly encourage you to bring your own clothing.

I have worked with hundreds of people on wardrobe styling, and I have a thorough list of where to purchase items that will match the style you desire.

My 32-page Wardrobe Guide will help you learn about the options and decide on which ones you want to wear.

Retouching is completely custom! I am a professional high-end retoucher with 15+ years of experience.

Retouching is an art unto itself and it is a big part of what I do, but some clients prefer to have no retouching at all.

Once you choose your favorite images, I will ask you what you prefer and we will go from there. I can smooth skin, whiten teeth, and diminish wrinkles, blemishes, and stretch marks.

Yes! There are many options for displaying your gorgeous images, including fine art albums, gallery-wrapped canvas, metal wall art, and acrylic blocks. We also offer a Digital Collection. Once your session is complete, we will do a same-day Image Reveal so you see your images. At this viewing, you will choose your favorite pictures to be retouched and decide how you want them displayed. I have samples of these items that you can check out when we do your consultation.

I only share images online with your express permission.

Your privacy is very important to me, and no one (except you!) will see your images if you choose to keep them private.
