Curious about pricing and what we offer? Part 2 is here! | Atlanta Boudoir Photography

(This is a followup from yesterday's post, check it out if you haven't already)

Knowing that the holiday season is basically here (in Atlanta we've had an influx of 30degree days), I wanted to go in-depth with explaining the different types of boudoir sessions that we offer. Outside of the holidays, though, this is just damn-good information to have! Read through it all and you'll have successfully made me feel better about having taken 45min to write all of this down.

 

For those clients that are interested in having a more involved boudoir experience (and having everything taken care of all at one time) we offer our Premium session. This session type is our most popular as it helps take care of nearly everything you could want in a boudoir session.

The Premium boudoir session includes all that the Base session offers with a mountain of added bonuses.

When you book a premium boudoir session with us you’ll have five outfit changes (perfect for all of those different looks that you want to try out), an additional $100 in credit from the base session (giving you $200 to use toward any add-ons and products!), full professional hair and makeup done in-studio, AND a personal wardrobe consultation (woo hoo!!!!). Currently our Premium boudoir session usually lasts around 3.5-4 hours and is $700 (with a $200 credit toward products). 

 

Let's talk more about that wardrobe consult. With the Premium session our wardrobe consultation starts immediately after we sign and seal your booking. Kelsey, our client manager extraordinaire, will set up a call (or your preferred method of communication, we are huge texters over here) with you to talk over your initial needs and wants. Don’t have any CLUE what you need or want? No prob, Bob. Her job is to figure that out with you! From then on Kelsey is available almost any time you need her. She’ll find certain styles for you, offer feedback when you’re out shopping, help you narrow down between which of your 15 black bras looks the best, etc. The wardrobe consultation is like having a personal stylist on retainer. 

 

Outside of the big “what do I even wear for this” question, the next biggest question we get is about hair and makeup. I believe our clients usually ask something along the lines of "can you do something with....this?" (cue a casual wave of the hand in front of the face).

With the premium session hair and makeup is included, though hair and makeup can also be booked separately for those clients interested in the Base session! Our hair and makeup artists are extremely talented and beyond meticulous...which is fantastic for when I'm zoomed in on those eyelashes and brows.

There are about 6 artists that we have in rotation for our boudoir clients, all of which have been working with me for quite some time. They know exactly how I photograph my clients and aren't too prideful that I'm not comfortable saying whether or not I like something. We work together to make sure that your face and hair are recognizable to you (unless you want to look unrecognizable) and that it'll photograph beautifully. The whole hair and makeup process usually takes around 1.5-2hrs and is insanely involved. These pictures will be saved forever… so we try to make sure everything is perfect. We aren’t afraid to wipe it all off and start over if you completely hate you look (although that has never happened before).

Before your session, during one of your many wardrobe conversations, you and Kelsey will have talked through the “look” that you’re going for. We send those pictures (along with a picture of your face) to our makeup artist so that she is fully prepared the day of your session, and so that she can let us know of any issues or red flags she sees for what you have chosen! 

And there ya have it, folks ;) That may have been WAYYYYYY too much information, but if you made it all of the way through you'll be more prepared and basically a professional at this whole 'boudoir ' thing. 

....stay tuned for the next part!
