The Les Bella Boudoir Experience

----------------------------------

Before we worry about anything else, I like to start by telling you to take care of yourself before your shoot!

Drink lots of water, exfoliate, moisturize. Spend extra time taking care of your skin, it's going to be your main outfit! If you're shaving or waxing do it a few days before. I can handle a bit of stubble much more easily in post processing than razor burn!

Use this session as an excuse to pamper yourself! Whether that means taking the time to do a pedicure and manicure on yourself, or booking an appointment for someone else to, it's always a good idea. When doing polish I find it works best visually to have the polish on your nails and toes match. If your polish is chipped, I will have to ask you to remove it before your shoot.

Please eat something before your shoot. Don't do anything drastic like a cleanse or fasting. Posing for boudoir sessions is kind of similar to a yoga session. You'll be holding muscles you normally don't, and often times be inverted laying down. I don't want you to feel faint or light headed. I photograph everyone so their body looks awesome. Even if you think you're a bit bloated after you eat, I promise you will never be able to tell in your photos.

Sessions typically take place at 9:00am, Monday - Friday. When you arrive for your session you will immediately sit down for hair and make up. Either during or once you have finished we will discuss all of your outfits and decide what you will look the most amazing in. Your session will last about 3 hours. Once we are done shooting we will sit down and go through your images at your private image reveal, this is when you will decide which ones you would like professionally retouched.
