Boudoir Photography Price
Boudoir sessions that feel like art — and look like you.
Choosing a boudoir session is a personal decision, and pricing should never feel hidden or confusing. You shouldn’t have to reach out just to understand what something costs or wonder if details are being held back.
This page is here to offer clarity from the beginning — no pressure, no guesswork, and no surprises later. Everything is shared openly so you can decide what feels right for you, with confidence.
My pricing reflects the time, care, and intention that go into every session, while still leaving room for choice and flexibility.
The Session Experience
The session fee secures your date and covers the experience itself — from the moment you book through your image reveal.
Boudoir Session Fee — $400
A $100 non-refundable retainer is due at booking and applied toward the session fee. The remaining balance is due 14 days prior to your session.
Images and products are selected separately after your session, once you’ve seen your photographs and can choose based on how they feel — not assumptions made ahead of time.
- Professional hair and makeup on session day
- A planning call before your session to walk through details and answer questions
- Studio time reserved just for you
- Calm, guided posing and direction throughout the session
- Your image reveal
Image Collections
Choose after you’ve seen the images
Collections are selected after your session — not before. This allows you to experience your images first and decide based on connection, not guesswork.
There’s no rush and no expectation. You’ll see everything before choosing what feels right for you.
Foundation Collection
A thoughtful introduction to the experience with a curated selection of your favorite images.
- 2-Hour Session
- 10 Digital Images
- Print release included
Signature Collection
You’ll arrive to professional hair & makeup, wardrobe styling, and a calming environment. I’ll guide you through every pose — so you feel confident, never awkward.
- 2-Hour Session
- 20 Digital Images
- Print release included
Heirloom Collection
Designed for those who want more time, more variety, and a slower, more exploratory experience. The additional hour allows space to settle in, change outfits, and create images that feel layered and intentional. Film photography is included automatically in this collection.
- 3-Hour Session
- 30 Digital Images
- Hybrid Film Photography Included
- Print release included
Typical Investment
Most clients invest between $1,300 and $1,900, depending on the collection they choose and any optional enhancements they include.
Payment plans are available and can be arranged during your reveal.
Fine Art Albums
Each fine art album is handcrafted to tell the full story of your session, designed with intention and printed on premium materials meant to be held, revisited, and treasured. This is not a collection of images — it’s a narrative, thoughtfully laid out so every page feels connected.
Albums are fully customizable in size, cover materials, and layout, allowing you to create something that feels deeply personal and entirely yours.
Fine Art Albums — $750
Your boudoir session is more than a moment — it’s a chapter. Albums are how that chapter lives on.
Most clients choose to include an album during their reveal once they see their images together as a complete story.
Extra time allows the session to unfold at a slower pace. It’s ideal if you want more outfit changes, more variety, or simply more space to settle in and explore the experience without feeling rushed.
Includes every fully edited image from your session, delivered in high resolution with print release. This option is perfect if you find yourself connected to the full story and don’t want to narrow your selection.
Film adds a softness and depth that feels timeless and organic. Photographed alongside digital, it brings a slower, more intentional quality to select images.
Film photography is included automatically with the Heirloom Collection and available as an add-on for Foundation and Signature.
ADDITIONAL ENHANCEMENTS
Additional Shooting Time — $350 per hour
All Digital Images — $600
Film Photography — $350
Who This Is For
A thoughtful, guided boudoir experience
This experience is for women who are drawn to something more intentional — not rushed, not performative, and not built around trends that fade. It’s designed for those who want to feel supported throughout the process, not expected to arrive knowing how to pose or perform.
You don’t need prior experience or confidence in front of the camera. You’ll be guided gently and clearly every step of the way, with space to settle in, ask questions, and move at a pace that feels comfortable.
You might be booking to celebrate a chapter, mark a transition, reclaim confidence, or simply do something meaningful for yourself. Or maybe you’re not entirely sure why you’re here yet — just that something about this feels right.
If you value trust, artistry, and a calm, thoughtful process — and want images that feel like you rather than a version you’re trying to become — this experience was created with you in mind.
Say Hello
