Q. I’M NOT COMFORTABLE SHARING MY IMAGES ONLINE. IS THAT REQUIRED TO WORK WITH JOLISE PHOTOGRAPHY?
A. Sessions are 100% private and images are NEVER shared anywhere without your permission. There’s NO requirement to share images in order to book a session.
Q. I’M WORRIED ABOUT ACNE/CELLULITE, STRETCH MARKS. DO YOU OFFER RETOUCHING?
A. Professional retouching is included with every session. I remove scars as requested, acne, blemishes, stretchmarks and cellulite in addition to bruises and other random marks you may have on the day of your session!
If you are self conscious about your weight, rest assured that I always work with my clients to find the most flattering outfits for their body type. It is my job to know exactly how to pose you to highlight your favorite assets and conceal parts you wish to hide. If there’s something you feel particularly self-conscious about, let me know and we’ll work through it together.
Q. HOW LONG WILL THE SESSION TAKE?
A. Allow up to 3 hours for a session. Hair and makeup takes approximately an hour and the session itself lasts 90 minutes. Add in champagne breaks and outfit changes, and a session can easily take 3 hours from start to finish.
Q. I NEED MY PICTURES BY A SPECIFIC DATE. WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY SESSION?
A. I tell clients to allow at least 4 weeks from the shoot date until the date you need your products delivered to allow ample time for editing, ordering production and delivery.
Q. WHERE DOES THE SESSION TAKE PLACE?
A. Unless otherwise discussed, your session will take place in our beautiful private studio located at 1825 S. Pinellas Ave. Tarpon Springs FL 34689
Q. CAN I BRING A FRIEND WITH ME ON THE DAY OF MY SESSION?
A. Absolutely! I know how intimidating a boudoir session can feel at first. I am very open to you bringing one or two female friends or family members for moral support! Just be sure that whoever you pick, you are completely comfortable being half naked or fully naked in front of and that everyone is over 18. NO SPOUSES ALLOWED unless otherwise discussed.
Q. ARE MAKEUP AND HAIR INCLUDED? CAN I JUST DO MY OWN AND SAVE MONEY?
A. Every session includes full makeup and hair styling. Getting your makeup and hair done sets the tone for your session. It gives you time to relax, get to know us better and feel pampered. But more importantly, having a professional do your makeup means they know how to do camera-ready makeup that will truly make you feel and look boudoir sexy! Honestly, you will want to have a professional makeup artist go with you everywhere once you experience this luxury!
Although you can opt to do your own hair and makeup, the session will not be discounted.
Q. HOW MUCH DOES A SESSION COST?
A. You can find a breakdown of starting prices here. The session fee is $450 and products are purchased separately. Collections range from $1800-$3900 with upgrade options.
Q. DO I BRING MY OWN LINGERIE? DO YOU HAVE SOME I CAN USE?
A. I have a variety of shoes and sweaters/jackets for you to borrow but you should bring your own lingerie and outfits.
Q. DO YOU OFFER A PAYMENT PLAN?
A. Yes! You are required to pay your session fee up front in order to book your session but any collections and products purchased can be put on a customized payment plan.
Note: No products are ordered until your the final amount due is paid in full.
Q. DO YOU THINK I CAN STILL HAVE A GOOD SHOOT EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT 100% COMFORTABLE WITH MY BODY?
A. Absolutely! I photograph women of all ages and sizes. The women on my website are real women just like you who went through makeup and hair, put together thoughtful wardrobes and trusted us to help them create sexy, beautiful images. We can do the same for you. Boudoir photography is for EVERY woman.
