Our MUSE Essential Collection is for 3 hours of shooting but the experience lasts longer.  If you book hair and make up you should expect to be with us for about 5 hours.  The take the experience very seriously and it cannot (and should not) be rushed.

If a client wants to use the boudoir images for promotional purposes, such as on a website, in advertisements, or for any other business or commercial ventures, we charge an additional fee.  The extra charge for promotional use reflects the licensing of the images, where we grant the client rights to use the photos in a commercial setting. The cost will depend on factors including where the images will be used (online, print, etc.) and the duration of usage

If a client has specific plans to use the images commercially they need to communicate this with us upfront so that proper licensing and fees can be discussed.

No it isn’t.  Whilst it isn’t an essential it makes a huge difference to both how you feel and how you look in your boudoir photos.   All of our clients arrive for their shoots a little nervous – which is totally understandable – but by the time they have finished with the hair and makeup element they are relaxed and looking fabulous.   Because it is a choice to have a professional look after you the hair and makeup is not included in the price of our Essential Collection.  However, you do have the choice to add this element at the booking stage - we organise the booking for you and you pay the artist directly.

With so much skin on show boudoir photography is an intensive edit for us – we will make sure that any semi-permanent blemishes are removed and that you look as if you have just had a 2 week holiday.  We won’t change anything about you in terms of shape and size – making you look your best is all down to how we shape with light and posing techniques. 

You can expect to see about at least 50 fully edited & retouched screen resolution jpeg images from a 3 hour boudoir shoot.  We generally have the gallery ready 2 weeks from the shoot date .

Digital images are measured in pixels per inch, or ppi, which is similar but not quite the same as dpi in printing. Most  computer monitor displays are 72 ppi which is very low resolution compared to print.  Most digital images looks great on your monitor and 72 ppi images will be a smaller file size and load faster than a 300 ppi image.   So we provide you with the images in screen resolution – perfect for sharing via email and displaying on any screens.

When it comes to printing the dpi refers to the amount of ink that is printed on paper. The more ink, the higher the resolution. 300 dots per inch is the standard for quality printing.  You can choose to purchase some or all of your images in high resolution at 300 ppi they will be very large file sizes so should only be used for photographs you want to print.   If you try and print the 72ppi version the print will literally pixellate and look blurry.

You can order professional prints directly from your client gallery – before we approve the order we upload a print resolution version for the lab.

Many clients choose to purchase the full shoot in print resolution which comes in a beautiful USB presentation box.
