Session Details & Preparation Tips
I know every woman is beautiful and sensual. I know most women don’t feel that way about themselves. Every session continues to fuel my passion to show you that you ARE beautiful, and SEXY. Client after client has giggled in awe of their images, FINALLY seeing what others see in them. There is nothing more fulfilling for me in my profession. That is why I do what I do. As a wife for 17+ years, I also believe a little sexiness here and there keeps things fun. ;)

~ “Francine, I almost cried when I saw the images. I wonder if this is what my husband sees when he looks at me. Thank you for showing me something I couldn’t see in myself.” by Miss G.
~ “Francine, Thanks for much! I really like them! I have to tell you, this was way out of my comfort zone and you made me feel right at ease. I felt like I have known you forever!” by Miss P.
BOOK YOUR BOUDOIR SESSION HERE
Boudior sessions are a time for you to feel beautiful, sexy, confident, and playful. Whether you are doing this for yourself or someone special, we will work together to create images that are elegant, sultry and fun! Flattering poses and beautiful hand-editing create images you (and your man!) will love! Sessions can take place in the privacy of the studio or in your home if there is strong natural light. While sessions usually last over an hour, we will take time creating beautiful images at a pace that makes you comfortable.
What to Wear, or Bring Along ~ Bring along a few lingerie options and lots of accessories. Must-haves are high heels, a statement necklace and bracelet, and a matching panty & bra set. Great options are your man’s white button-down dress shirt, favorite nighty, thigh-high stockings and garter belt, thong panties, and fishnet stockings. Have fun with these! Check your lingerie for fit, making sure there isn’t the dreaded “spill-over” or stays that pucker. We want you looking like your perfect self, which means comfort and fit are key!
Makeup & Hair ~ Professional makeup makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE! Makeup should be heavier than normal, and false eye lashes are the perfect touch. Fake tans almost always look orange or too red, so proceed with caution. Be sure your face matches the rest of your body. Contouring is more important than highlighting to show mood and emotion. Bright or soft lipstick photographs better than dark lipstick, unless you are going for the “Strong” look. ;) Finally, keep highlighter to a minimum or at least avoid frosted/glittery highlights. Love highlights but soft ones work best for strobe lighting. Your makeup artist may not work with photographers or understand the effects of strobe lighting on makeup. Please be sure to review these tips with him/her!
Here is a wonderful example of the beautiful Miss J. before her makeover and after. Well done!
Images will not be posted on the website without permission from the client unless they show no identity. Images are edited in the privacy of Francine’s studio by Francine only.
INVESTMENT: $300
This includes your session time and a CD of at least 20 images artfully retouched high-resolution images in both color and black & white, and a sexy little 3 x 3 accordion mini album with a discrete black cover to gift to your special someone. Images will be posted in a password protected online viewing gallery. You will have full printing rights, as well as the ability to order professional print products directly from your gallery. $100 is due upon booking as your reservation fee, and is deducted from the total $300 due. This is non-refundable but may be applied to a reschedule within 30 days of your original booking if necessary.
EDITING ~ All images are hand edited with the goal of making you look your best while still looking like yourself. Curves will be enhanced and smoothed, but size will not be changed. Blemishes and stretchmarks will be removed, tummies and arms will be gently tucked where needed, and skin will always be smoothed and softened. Below is a perfect example of what a full edit will look like compared to the image out of camera. This means stretch marks are no excuse not to get those gorgeous images you deserve!

Here’s what Miss A. had to say: “He LOVES them. He said his favorite is #7978. My favorite is 8035, but I love almost all of the ones with the pink bra. OMG I am SO excited about these! They turned out more beautiful than I imagined :) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!”
Here’s what Miss G. had to say: “Um, all I can say is…WOW! Yes, I like!! And it was fun!!”
And a little about your Photographer: I am thrilled to bring over two years of portrait experience with hundreds of families and tons of passion to the Boudoir genre! As a mom of three girls, I strongly believes women everywhere should feel beautiful, no matter what age or size. As a wife for 17+ years, I also believes a little sexiness here and there keeps things fun. ;) My main goal is to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, have you leave thrilled with your experience, and leave you seeing how beautiful you really are.
