Booking a boudoir session can feel exciting, but also a little nerve-wracking if you don’t know what to expect. My goal is to make the process smooth, comfortable, and empowering from start to finish. Here’s exactly how it all works—so you can focus on the fun part: celebrating yourself.
Step 1: Getting in Touch
It all begins with a simple step—filling out the contact form on my website. From there, I’ll schedule a phone consultation with you. This is our chance to connect, chat about your vision, and answer any questions you may have. Once you’re ready to book, a R500 booking fee secures your date.
Step 2: Preparing for Your Session
Every client receives a detailed prep guide designed to help you feel your absolute best—covering everything from skincare to wardrobe tips. If you’d like extra guidance on what to wear, you’re welcome to email or WhatsApp me your outfit ideas beforehand. You can also bring options to your session, and I’ll help you select the perfect looks on the day.
For makeup, I work with trusted local vendors I’ll be happy to recommend. Professional makeup can enhance your confidence and give your images that extra polished finish.
Step 3: The Shoot Day
Your session will take place in my private studio and typically lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes max. When you arrive, we’ll take a few minutes to chat, ease any nerves, and set the tone for your session. I’ll play music of your choice—because the right playlist makes all the difference—and offer you something to drink, whether it’s water or a glass of champagne.
Throughout the session, I’ll guide you with posing, keep the atmosphere light and fun and ensure you feel completely comfortable. My clients often tell me that what started as nerves quickly turned into an empowering, confidence-filled experience.
Step 4: Viewing & Choosing Your Images
Within two weeks of your shoot, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view and select your favourite images. Your gallery will remain live for 5 days three months, giving you plenty of time to make your selections.
Once you’ve chosen your favourite images, I’ll get to work on retouching your final images which you will then receive within two weeks.
I’ve written a full blog post about my editing process HERE if you’d like a behind-the-scenes look at how I perfect each photograph.
Step 5: Final Delivery & Products
When your final images are ready, you’ll be able to download them directly from your secure online gallery, which will be available for three months. For those who want to take their experience even further, I also offer gorgeous add-on products such as custom albums—perfect for creating a keepsake you can treasure for years.
More Than Just Photos
A boudoir session is about so much more than the images themselves—it’s about stepping into your confidence, celebrating your beauty, and creating memories that last far beyond the day of your shoot.
If you’re ready to begin your boudoir journey, the first step is easy: GET IN TOUCH.
I can’t wait to guide you through an unforgettable experience.
