I am thinking of booking a photo shoot. I’ve never done anything like that and I’m nervous. How does one prepare for a shoot?
There’s nothing you need to prepare beyond showing up as yourself. Feeling nervous is completely normal—whether it’s portraits, branding, boudoir, or something more personal or conceptual. We’ll move slowly, I’ll guide you throughout the process, and the session will unfold at a comfortable pace so the images come from ease rather than performance. There will also be plenty of laughs, good music, snacks, and maybe a little booty shaking along the way.
I don’t have any locations or styles in mind. Do you have any ideas for shoot?
Location:
Absolutely! Most shoots start that way. I’m always happy to help with ideas, locations, and direction based on the feeling you’re drawn to.I primarily shoot outdoors and at interesting locations like parks, beaches, rooftops, boutique hotels, or other creative spaces depending on the vibe. If you’re not sure what fits best, we’ll figure it out together. There is also an optional pre-shoot styling and thrift shopping add-on if you’d like extra help building looks and inspiration before your session.
Style:
Wear something you feel comfortable and confident in! Something that feels like you. We can talk wardrobe ahead of time, and I’m happy to guide ideas around colors and styling so everything feels cohesive but never forced. If you want to go for a specific look, I can also send shopping recommendations once we plan your shoot, and for boudoir sessions I can share a list of great lingerie brands. I also offer a “thrift before your shoot” add-on if you’d like extra help building looks before your session.
*Check under I N V E S T M E N T for tentative pricing guides and again under BOOK a SHOOT you can email me to discuss locations or wardrobe ideas as well.*
Would I have to be posted on your website or will they be confidential forever?
Around 60% of what you see on my website is work created with models, especially for boudoir and fine art projects. Much of this work is collaborative or TFP (time for print), where images are created for artistic use rather than paid commercial sessions. For all clients and models, I always use a contract that clearly outlines what can and cannot be shared. If you prefer privacy, that is absolutely an option! Most private and paid clients choose this for their images to remain completely confidential.
I retain the rights to all images I create, but usage is always discussed and agreed upon beforehand so everyone is clear and comfortable.
******I retain the the rights to ALL my images. NO RAW FILES Period, please don’t ask.*****
Do you shoot men?
Yes! I do, and I’d love to do more. I’m here to capture men at their best and explore male sensuality and expression in a respectful, empowering way. My goal is always to create a space where you feel comfortable, seen, and confident in front of the camera.
*Really I shoot A N Y O N E that wants to try a new photo experience and leave feeling empowered and with a new sense of self love for themselves. Respect is expected on either end*
How much are you shoots?
Pricing depends on the type of shoot you’re looking to create, and full details can be found under the I N V E S T M E N T link here, to find out more. An email inquiry from “Book a Shoot” is also always welcome to get the ball rolling on your shoot. Sessions vary based on concept, location, and scope—from portraits, boudoir, branding, events, weddings, commercial work, to more elaborate fine art or conceptual work.
Payment plans are available upon request, and I accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards. A non-refundable $100 retainer is required to secure your booking and is applied toward your session, with the remaining balance due on the day of the shoot. One reschedule is allowed when needed due to life circumstances; however, if a session is canceled or rescheduled again, the retainer is forfeited and a new deposit will be required to rebook.
Are you a model or creative looking to work with me?
I love collaborating with PRO models, creatives and other content creators and see every shoot as a shared creative process. With permission to use photos on my website, social media, and to post a set on my Patreon, we can work at a 50% Creative Promo Classic session rate ( mention “CREATIVE PROMO” in your email!). HMUA can be added to classic session for $250, or it’s included when booking an Indulgent Session. Full details can be found under the I N V E S T M E N T link here, to find out more. An email inquiry from “Book a Shoot” is also always welcome to get the ball rolling on your shoot.
