Your Session- What to Expect From Start to Finish

    During this step, you will receive access to the Client Lounge, and you will begin coordinating your outfits and choosing the perfect location for your photo session.

    About one week before your session, I will send you some last-minute reminders along with a link to pay the balance of your session. 

Day of the Session

On the day of your session, feel free to reach out to me with any questions. At your session, sit back, relax and enjoy yourself while I capture the goddess you are.

Post-Session

  • Sneak Peaks

    Within a few days after your session, I will send you a sneak peek of some of my favorites from your session in a text or email. If you signed a model release, you will also be able to see the sneak peeks on my socials. Feel free to share in your own stories. If you prefer to keep your photos private, that’s no problem! Your session images will not be shared on my socials.

  • Gallery Delivered!

    Within 2 weeks, I will deliver your gallery via email. You will get access to a private gallery where you can download your images. You will also be able to order your products at this time.

  • Check-in & Leave a Review!

    About a week after I deliver your products, I will check in one last time to make sure you were happy with everything. If you loved your experience and love your photos, please consider leaving a 5-star review!

 FAQs

  • If this session is a gift for a significant other, please book at least 1 month in advance of when you wish to receive your finished products. Session editing takes about 2 weeks. Album and product orders take another 2 weeks for ordering and delivery.

  • All boudoir sessions take place on the weekends only. In the months of July and August, there is weekday availability.

  • I work exclusively with women and welcome women ages 21+.

    I work with women in all types of backgrounds and bodies. You don’t have to be in a relationship to request a boudoir session. Foremost, I want you doing the session for YOU.

    The most popular reasons for booking a boudoir session are:

    • to celebrate you

    • maternity to show off your body in this season of change

    • postpartum to celebrate what your body was able to accomplish

    • birthdays

    • bridal

    • fitness or health celebrations

    • anniversaries (as a gift for your partner or to celebrate as a couple)

  • In the event of booking a Fantasy package as a couple, I work with married couples only.

  • We have options of natural light studios, luxury hotels, or your home in and around the Rochester, New York area. Each session is tailored to you.

  • I’m Anna, your photographer. I work closely with an all-female glam squad.

  • I offer outfit ideas in my Client Lounge. You get access to all the content to prep for the most confident look.

  • Majority of my clients prefer to come alone to their session. Should you choose, you are allowed to bring one (1) friend for moral support only. Your friend must be female and cannot direct or interfere with the shoot in any way. Should they interfere with your session, they will be asked to leave.

    I do not allow significant others to be present for the shoot, except in the event of the Fantasy package couples boudoir session. They are participants in the session and allowed in.

  • Yes, light retouching is included in your package to remove non-permanent markings such as scratches or bruises. Permanent markings are part of your story. and are not removed. Your body shape or size will not be altered. Should you wish to not showcase specific angles or permanent markings, we’ll discuss this in our consultation, and I will work to guide your posing to minimize these areas. My mission is not to transform your images to be unrecognizable. It is to showcase your inner and outer goddess.

  • I will only share your images with your written consent. In the event of receiving consent to share your images, you will be able to select which ones you approve to be shared. I will not tag you or list your name in any use of your images.

    I am greatly honored when clients love their images so much and wish to share them in my portfolio.

    If you prefer your images to be kept private, they will never see the light of day.
