BOUDOIR BY ELIZABETH YOUNG PHOTOGRAPHY
FEMINITY MEETS ARTISTIC EXPRESSION
WHY BOUDOIR ?
A boudoir photography session is not always, but can be a once in a lifetime experience. It’s something you should plan for well in advance, just as you would for any special occasion. There’s many reasons why women choose to do boudoir photography: - To use photographs as a gift for a significant other. - Brides looking for a unique gift to surprise the groom. - To celebrate a milestone - ike a 30th, 40th or even 60th birthday. - Mothers-to-be looking to document their pre-baby body. p - As a gift for a lover on Valentine Day! - Or simply just to remind yourself that you’ve still got that sassy side in you. With all the daily tasks women face – life gets pretty hectic! I truly feel that every woman deserves to take a break from the hustle of life, be a little selfish, indulge and do something totally outside of your comfort zone!
MY GOAL IS TO MAKE YOU FEEL
DESIRABLE + FEMININE + SEXY I am thrilled that you are interested in boudoir photography! I like to think of it as an extended spa day – but better! A boudoir session is better because you get to take home images that remind you everyday of how amazing you truly are! Overall I want to create images that you would be proud to blow up & hang on your bedroom wall. At every shoot I strive to give you a good mix of tasteful & timeless with a few sexy scandalous photos sprinkled in as well. If at the end of our day together you feel powerful, feminine & sexy then I have succeeded at my job. I love the entire process of boudoir photography from beginning to end & enjoy assisting you every step of the way.
WHAT TO EXPECT First I suggest that you browse through this magazine, read reviews & check out my portfolio. Contact me with any & every question & idea you might have. I encourage a consultation where we can chat about details over coffee or over the phone and decide on a vision for your photo shoot. You can then decide if you want the full works, Half day session with make-up at the hotel or home sessions where you do your own make -up. For a little extra cost, you can of course opt for home session with make up too! Prepping for the big day: Shopping, & gathering inspirational ideas leading up to the shoot! feel free to contact me so we can get some ideas together. A great place to look for ideas is Pintrest, it’s a fabulous way of gathering some ideas. Shopping for outfits & can’t decide what to choose? Text me pics, I love helping!
Think about every day clothes too, such as soft fabrics, floaty blouses, sheer tops, long socks, glasses, hats, statement jewellery. I also do a wardrobe consultation on the day of the shoot Obviosly your nice underwear or lingerie will make an appearance too!
Finally, it’s the day of the big shoot! I work with some remarkable hair & make-up artists who are just as passionate as I am about making you feel confident and sexy during your shoot. For the Hotel boudoir, while we are glamming you up I will provide complimentary drinks & your favorite snacks as we chat away. We will go through your clothing options and put together complete looks. For most sessions about 2 – 3 ensembles. I don’t like to set a strict time for this, but generally we will be shooting you for about 2 hours. Congratulations – we finished the shoot! I will then go home and carefully edit your images. I pay attention to skin tone and will smooth out blemishes and spots, and will produce soft yet natural images. Within two weeks I will have your digital images ready to post out to you on a disc t
HAIR & MAKEUP I do have packages that don’t include makeup but I highly recommend that you get this optional service if opting for the home shoot. The makeup and hair artists I work with have years of experience and are the best that at what they do. Photography makeup differs from normal makeup and even though you might have things mastered day to day for makeup, the makeup artists will have you looking and feeling amazing!
BOUDOIR ATTIRE One of the most frequently asked questions is "What should I wear?" Clients are constantly inquiring about what is "acceptable" boudoir attire. The answer is: whatever you want! Boudoir attire is all about what makes you feel sexy and confident. I have ladies bring suitcases full of Clothes and props. Everything from classic black dresses to barely-there lace underwear. You can reveal as much or as little as you want. Classic boudoir attire typically includes items such as bra/knicker sets, chemises, corsets, and teddies. Contact me and I can help you choose clothing that will make you feel the most comfortable.
FAQ I’m nervous about this! What’s your advice? Being nervous is totally normal but I promise nerves will melt away very soon! After 5 minutes of shooting you will see how fun and easy it is. I will only do what you are comfortable with. Can I bring a friend to the photo shoot? Yes, of course you can, I do however advise this is a female only shoot so no guys allowed I’m afraid. What do I need to secure my booking? I ask for a £30 non refundable deposit for home bookings and £100 non refundable deposit for the hotel booking. Deposits are then deducted off the remainder of the balance When is the final payment due? Payment is due on the day, either in cash or via Paypal/bank transfer How long will it take to see my photos? Generally 2 weeks but could be sooner.. Could also be slightly longer during the wedding season How do I receive the photos? On a disc for you to print at your own leisure I can also order products such as framed prints, poster prints, Canvases. Please see my products page for options and pricing Full payment is due before any products will be ordered.
