Thank You For Booking! WWW.ALISIADAWNPHOTOGRAPHY.COM


THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR SESSION Don’t stress over your upcoming shoot; trust me - we’re going to have a great time! We laugh & have fun and it's really just like a girls day. I know for some women the thought of an upcoming boudoir shoot can be scary and overwhelming, but I PROMISE you, it's not as nerve-wracking as it sounds. I PROMISE you really will have fun! You are going to look gorgeous and we are going to capture some great photos! Your total session time including hair & make-up will be approx 2.5hrs. It is very important you are on time to ensure enough time for hair & make up so that it doesn't cut into your shooting time. However because we are shooting back to back sessions, please try not to be more than 5 minutes early. If you have any questions regarding your upcoming session please don't hesitate to call/text/email/message!


WHAT TO EXPECT You will arrive at your scheduled session time and begin hair & make-up. Your one hour of shoot time begins when we begin shooting. Sessions are private. The staff for these sessions are all female and consist of the Photographer, and the stylist, and often times a photographer's assistant. If you would feel more comfortable bringing a guest, we welcome you to do so. We do ask however you limit the guests for your session to one additional person and I'm sorry ladies, no men are permitted to attend these sessions. Your session will take place in a suite or condo provided by your photographer. The day before your session you will be provided with the location & address & any additional access directions needed. Your session balance is due the day of your session, unless you have previously made arrangements to use our payment option. We accept cash or cards, no checks please.


WHAT TO WEAR You are responsible for your own wardrobe. Please bring as many outfit choices and accessories as you would like! It's always great to have options and we can create looks together at your session. I encourage you to Google "Boudoir Photography" and check out some images and get some ideas. Things like, hubby's shirt or his uniform, men's ties, favorite team jersey's, sexy dresses, fur coats, cute undies, high heels, knee or thigh high stockings, and anything you feel luxurious & sexy in are all good examples of items to bring, you can also bring props and of course lingerie is always great! Let your imagination run wild! Think of things you are personally interested/involved in or hunny is and take inspiration from that. I do always recommend bringing a pair of flattering fitted black panties. However please don't stress too much about wardrobe, sometimes all we use is a sheet! You are also welcome to call anytime for a consultation. 406-871-9230.


TIPS TO PREPARE Make sure you get plenty REST the night before your shoot. It's hard work being a model so you will want to be well rested. For your session professional hair & make up will be provided. Please arrive wearing no make-up and unstyled clean dry hair. The only thing our stylist asks is you bring is your own foundation to ensure we match your skin tone. If you have lip color you love bring that also! Don't forget about your nails! Â Be sure that if your nails are painted, the polish is not chipped. neutral colors usually work best with most looks. Make sure finger nails are clean and filed. Don't leave out the toenails, we will be shooting barefoot at times during the session! Remember to shave and moisturize for your session so your sking looks it's best.


SHOULD YOU TAN? I personally have mixed feelings about spray tanning before your session, because sometimes it looks great, but when it doesn't it's not great. However if you decide you want to get a spray tan prior to your session, please #1. make the extra investment for it to come out even and more natural looking by having a cosmetologist spray you (i.e. not the spray tan beds, which can be inconsistent or make your orange), #2. Please make your spray tan appointment approx 2-3 days before your shoot, so it has time to set in, look more natural, and won't rub off all over the linens and furniture. I suggest wearing thong/g-string underwear to get spray tanned, so that your tan lines are very small and easy to edit out if needed. Don't be afraid to get sprayed topless either! Trust me, we want to avoid tanlines! One last thing to keep in mind with spray tanning, your make-up/foundation may be lighter than your skin tone after tanning. I would recommend getting/bringing a finishing powder a shade or two darker to match your tan. However your images will come out beautiful, with or without a tan! Please do not use any tanning product that could potentially stain the linens. Thanks!
