Frequently Asked Questions

At a minimum, I suggest 2 but really no more than 5. This gives us options to play with and given the time we have, we can capture a great variety of images. Props such as a necklace, heels, tie, robes, etc. are great to bring along as well! Typically, we'll start with styles you bring and end your session with implied or nude photos, should you wish. If you’re not sure what to bring, no worries! My extensive size-inclusive client closet is available for us to style you that day!

Yes, tons! Many we choose not to post online due to the sensitive nature of your photoshoot, some we burn and bury like they never existed. I respect my client's privacy, so based on your specific preferences, you choose what we can and cannot share either in our password-protected galleries, on social media or in my print marketing. Therefore, our portfolio of what we showcase is a MUCH smaller representation of what we’ve captured. Inquire about your photoshoot and we'll be able to talk (and show) so much more in both classic and bridal boudoir styles!

Most collections includes digitals which you’ll select from your fave must have can't live without images. Full-Session galleries are always filled with 70+ edited images and Limited Edition Sessions have 40+ images to select from.

Girl, please. If we waited to do anything until the timing was "perfect" then we wouldn't do anything. You're perfect today and I'm here to help you prove it to yourself. No matter what body type, I'm here to capture your own unique beauty. Trust me, you've got this.

Hello, totally normal person! Almost all my clients say this but that's what I'm here for. I'll be coaching you through each pose, showing you myself (yup, I lay on the floor and roll into every pose first), telling you when to breathe, and even how to get the right facial expression. Next excuse, please...

Nope, but I do professionally edit them. I soften skin, remove small blemishes and help shadow areas to give the right peek-a-boo effect you're looking for. I do not "nip and tuck" or remove parts of you that are, well, you! No conforming to society's crazy standards of beauty here! Just beautiful images of you in poses that flatter YOUR figure and celebrate YOU just as you are. 

Anticipate spending about half your day at the studio. You’ll be in hair and makeup for about 60 minutes followed by style planning before we begin your photoshoot. Then, we'll spend 1-2 hours shooting, depending on what Collection you've selected along with any of our amazing bonus sets! Each bonus set adds 20-30 minutes of shooting time. When it comes time to reveal your gallery, we offer this either the same-day or via Zoom about 2 weeks after your photoshoot.

Nudies baby! Also sometimes referred to as “Bodyscapes”. These are tastefully done with a single light, dramatic shadows, and most of the time body oil and water to give an amazingly sexy silhouette of you in all your goddess glory. Inquire to see our password-protected gallery for examples of this style. These fine art photographs are one of my absolute faves!

We completely understand that sometimes life gets in the way of our plans. Please know that all payments made to The Brava Studio are non-refundable. First, we’ll look at rescheduling your photoshoot to another date. If you do need to reschedule within 7 days of your photoshoot, we have a $150 rescheduling fee. Really, this is to cover the staff who already blocked off their time and turned away other clientele for your reservation, so they’re not left high and dry. If you decide to outright cancel, all payments made are forfeited. 

Limited Edition Sessions are specialty sets that aren't available as an add-on during a regular photoshoot. They make an appearance on select dates each year in condensed 30 minute sessions but with all the pampering of a full shoot. They are great for anyone looking to dip their toes in the boudoir waters! They're also a very popular session among my VIP “repeat offenders” when they’re dying for a another fun photoshoot and confidence booster. Once you’ve had a taste of the experience we offer, you’ll be itching to get back in front of my camera too!
