Frequently Asked Questions

I live and operate my photography business in Calgary AB, but I often travel nationally and overseas, for creative and commissioned projects. I've been in US, Europe, Middle East and the Caribbeans. For specific inquires that involve international travels, please Contact Me and I will get back to you within 24 hours.  

My photography services are 100% mobile, therefore I have a few options to offer to my clients, like a luxury hotel suite, a very nice boho-chic studio - or - at the comfort of your own home/place. (There is nothing more relaxing and comforting, than doing a photo session of this style/type, while not having to leave your home). 

Yes, and from professional perspective there should be no difference.
I've noticed over the years, while some women are unsure about this, many would prefer to work with a male photographer. There are actually quite a few benefits in working with an EXPERIENCED male boudoir photographer, for example: 

- Men and women typically see women differently. Also - what men find sexy and what women find sexy are typically different things. A woman might say something like, "That ripped and old looking hoodie? That isn't sexy". While a man might say something like, "I love that hoodie on you, first thing in the morning when you are walking around with your coffee... it looks so sexy..."

- Most of my clients are getting albums and collections as a gift for their husband, therefore they want a man's opinion and perspective...
When I begin designing the album and ask what images to use, the answer is usually - “I'd prefer you to pick the best you think he will like, since you are a guy". 

- Playboy, FHM, Maxim, and Sports Illustrated Swim Suit (just to name a few) are mostly shot by male photographers. Boudoir as an industry, is dominated by women photographers because of the perception that the client and her spouse will feel more comfortable if they are shot by a woman. The fact is - if you're hiring an experienced and reputable boudoir photographer, male or female, they will be focusing on posing, lighting, emotion and experience. We are not really looking at "you", but at the composition that will create the best image of you.
You should look for and hire the photographer (male or female) who makes you feel accepted, sexy, and with a style you love. They will always show and remind you that you are beautiful, powerful, sexy and special. Above all - they will make you feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, whether you've done it before or not. 

I guarantee a completely comfortable, professional, and FUN atmosphere. One thing is certain, I will capture images that both you and your partner will enjoy! 

As an established and experienced photographer, I have a wide network and I work with some of the best HMUAs in our local industry. Your Boudoir & Intimate Portraits Experience includes the HMUA services prior to the photo session. 
Some of my clients prefer to use their own professionals, so that option is also available.   

Although Photoshop is way cheaper than plastic surgery (yes, I've heard a photographer saying that...), I actually do way less of the editing process than many other boudoir photographers...
I simply believe in capturing and portraying the REAL YOU.
I personally am not a fan of images where people look like porcelain dolls with
glass-looking eyes. I want you to be able to look at your images and RECOGNIZE that fun, sexy, confident and romantic woman looking back at you.  
Photoshop CAN'T do that kind of effect.
I want you to look at your images and LOVE how you look, rather than how Photoshop makes you look like.
After hundreds of photo sessions with many different women, I know just the right lighting and posing that will flatter your specific body type, no matter of your curves or age. 

VERY RARELY...
Usually I offer two options:
- The standard (and recommended) photo session is about 2 hours long - and for a good reason, that is actually benefits the client. You see, an experienced model needs about 20 minutes in front of the camera, to "warm up", before she's in her "A-Game" and can create "usable" images. For someone with less or no experience in front of the camera, I usually recommend to go with this option. The longer time frame also allows you to bring and work with a few looks/outfits, usually about 5-6 looks. 
- Approx one hour photo session is available upon request, if/when a client requests that. Of course, less looks/outfits will be included in that option. Usually 2-3 max.  

If you're looking for anything shorter than one hour boudoir photo session - I'm not a good fit for your boudoir experience. There are lots of guys/girls with cameras out there, who will gladly do that for you. I can send you a few names ;) 
 
 

Boudoir & Intimate Portraits Experience is an INVESTMENT in YOURSELF. The kind of investment that you will never have to justify, with final products/collections that will always remind you how AMAZING YOU ARE.

The sitting fee is $495 (includes your consultation meeting, a professional hair&makeup, 1-1.5 hours photo session with 4-5 looks/outfits, complimentary headshots, professional editing of the final images, private online gallery for the viewing & ordering process, 48 hours after your session)
"Photoshoot Ready" option is available (without hair&makeup) - $375.
Digitals, Prints and Modern Boudoir Albums are purchased separately, after you review your digital edits on the private online gallery.
(Corresponding digital high resolution edits, on USB, with a Luxe Case, are always included with any collection you chose to purchase). 
There is also an option to purchase only the high resolution digital collection. 

Boudoir Collections start at $1500, with À-la Carte options available. 
(Our clients invest an average of $2000-$2500 in their experience and our most popular collections).

SPECIAL AND EXCLUSIVE PROMOS ARE AVAILABLE EVERY MONTH.
Please contact for more details.

With your agreement signing, I will send you the detailed price list with products and collections options, so you can build the package/collection you love the most. 

*prices do not include GST

Yes, definitely. Normally I offer 2-3 payments. In certain cases, a couple more payments can be done - but - no collections are delivered before the overall payment is completed in full.  

ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE, unless you will say otherwise. As a boudoir photographer I'm bound to the trust of my clients' confidentiality. The samples and images that are featured on my website are from clients that gave me their consent to use their images for that purpose. My clients' trust is the key element of my reputation as a business and a person.   

From the initial consultation, through the whole process of photo session / post production / image reveal & ordering session - to delivery of your luxury collection chosen by you - I'm the person you will be working with. I DO NOT OUTSOURCE ANYTHING from my work, other than the albums, wall art and folios printing, which is done by a reliable and confidential printing business I work with.

Absolutely! I always meet my clients in person before I work with them! The initial consultation/meeting is complimentary and is the perfect (and recommended) way to get to know your photographer, discuss ideas and concepts, view some samples, chat pricing, get answers to any questions you have and to make sure you have all the info before you ready to book your Boudoir & Intimate Portrait Experience.
We can meet over a coffee (my treat) or for a Zoom-Chat.
