FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A. Call or text Beth at 240-504-5091 or email her at hello@boudoirbybeth.com, we won't book a session right away, we will simply book your in-person consult.

A. Sessions are $399. It includes hair and makeup styling and time for 3-5 outfit changes and lighting changes.

A. Of course! I will reserve a date and time on my calendar for your session with a signed contract and session fee paid.  No photographs will be ordered until the reveal session.  This makes it easier to spread out the investment for a singe session, so your spouse doesn't get suspicious about the gift.

A. The team Beth works with is experienced in makeup application and hair styling for photography purposes.  Going out on the town for a special occasion is one thing, but photography for photoshoots is slightly different, so I highly recommend having my trusted beauty industry professionals be there for you.

A. Sorry, but at this time, Beth has a limited selection of outfit compliments.  During your in-person boudoir session consult we can discuss the best outfits to wear and where to get them. This is something Beth is considering for the future.

A. Beth absolutely LOVES Pinterest, but for inspiration really. In fact, check out her Pinterest profile and boards for even more inspiration. Beth has been to several workshops and seminars with industry leading boudoir photographers and after photographing over 100 happy ladies with even happier gift recipients, rest assured that you do not need any posing or modeling experience.  Her number one goal is to help you look amazing, feel amazing and exude amazing.

A. Sure, he can come, the more the merrier!  Just know that it could change the way you respond to Beth's directions and heck he may even want to jump and hold the reflector!

A. We love girlfriends and the supportive nature they give to us even in the best of times.  Please do bring your friend, but let them know that this is our show, and that Beth will be the one doing the directing, styling and posing and to hang back and let her do her thang.

A. Beth tells all ladies that sessions take a complete 3-4 hours.

A. After your session, we will set a date that is one week out for the reveal, which is where you will order your prints, albums, and wall art. Our labs take 7-10 business days to delivery your art to the studio. Since Beth is usually booked 2 weeks out, it is safe to say that you should plan to have a session at least a month and a half or two before your special occasion.

A. In order for our beauty team to have its best palate, please come with clean dry hair that was washed the night before and has zero product styled in.  Also wear loose fitting clothing so that pants and bras do not leave marks on your skin.  Clean your face with face wash, but do not moisturize your face, the make-up artist here will do that for you.

A. Beth has photographed in the client's home in the past, it has made for some very beautiful photographs, however, some homes do not afford the best situation for the best results in the photograph. If you really feel that your home is the perfect place that you wish to be photographed, there is a travel/set-up fee of $50 to cover the additional time and expenses for a customized photoshoot location.

A. Beth has two beautiful children, but they gave her stretch marks, so she understands that photoshop is a necessity. She has never sold a single photograph that was not retouched. She even smooths out lines caused by clothing, whitens teeth, brightens eyes, and any other slight enhancements.  However, she will not make you look like you weigh less or do any drastic, unnatural changes in your appearance.

A. Most of Beth's clients order a beautiful leather album of twenty images or more.

A. The experience and session, together with an album, typically average around $3,200. However, we understand that everyone’s budget is different. Some clients choose to purchase just a few single images, so the products and packages are completely customizable based on what you want to spend. We’re here to work with you to create something special that fits your needs and budget. 

A. When your order is ready, Beth will inspect it for correctness and quality. You will then be contacted for a pick-up date/time.

A. Beth will only post images on my website and on social media that she has a signed a model release from and has been given permission from the client to do so.  Your privacy is very important.  Beth's model release has different options for sharing and not sharing her artwork with your image.

A. We proudly offer a 10% discount on products for active-duty military. While our sales and discounts are rare, we occasionally shake things up with exclusive mini sessions—think Valentine’s Day specials or a model call to help us expand our portfolio. Stay tuned for those unique opportunities!
