Frequently asked questions.
Where does the session take place?
Your session will take place at my highly-curated studio about 30 minutes east of Charlotte, NC. The studio is in my home and surrounded by 100s of acres of private land, so you don’t have to worry about anyone peeping through windows!
Should I get my hair and makeup done?
I highly recommend having your hair and makeup done by a professional. It will set your photos apart and give you the pampered experience of a lifetime! I partner with local hair and makeup artists who are phenomenal, and give you the option to purchase their invaluable services. Makeup always appears lighter on camera, so these ladies know how to make it look perfect!
I don’t have anything to wear. Can you help me?
Girl, I got you! Upon booking you will receive a style guide that answers all these questions and more. I recommend bringing a variety of outfits to your session, and I am here to help you decide what will look best on camera, in certain lighting, and what goes well with the location. Lingerie isn’t a must, and there are so many other options that can also provide you with an upscale, sexy look! However, I do have an ever-growing client wardrobe you are welcome to check out!
Are the women in your photos models?
No, but they look like it right?? All my portraits are of real “everyday” women who generously gave me their consent to show you images from their session. I never post an image without a client’s approval, and during your reveal session we’ll chat more about this!
Do you retouch the images?
Honey, don’t you worry ‘bout a thing! Besides basic editing, portrait retouching is included for every image. This involves blemish removal and skin smoothing, and all the other details my professional camera picks up on that our eyes don’t emphasize.
I’m concerned about privacy. How do you keep images safe?
Your privacy is one of my top priorities! Any digitals purchased are delivered in a password-protected gallery, and are never shared without your direct consent!
Why Haven Boudoir?
At some point in your life, you probably needed a haven. Now when you book a session with me, your empowerment portraits or boudoir session in turn helps support the women who need a haven right now. Women supporting women. <3
