How is Boudoir Photography Like Fast Food?

Personally, I prefer gourmet over fast-food anytime!

How is Boudoir photography like a fast food drive-thru? 

Some studios work on a volume basis. Some of them don’t offer hair and make-up on site, and if they do, it’s often an add-on. It’s kind of like ordering a burger; you have your basic patty (your session), and then you can dress it up with lettuce, onion, pickles, and a tomato. 

As for your cook (your photographer), you get who ever is scheduled to work that day. Not only is this person a total stranger to you, but you’ve never seen their portfolio of work. The photos on the website represent a myriad of photographers’ work. You might think this is no big deal, but I know from personal experience that you can put ten photographers in the same space with the same subject and no two photos will look the same. That’s because each photographer has a different eye, and different style.

Like the drive-thru, most volume studios will have you in an out about an hour and a half because they're servicing multiple clients in one day.

With me, you are the star for the day.  There's no rushing about here.  I liken my studio experience to a gourmet burger experience. You get dolled up in my studio with an experienced hair and make-up artist, while sipping on some bubbly. 

Plus, you get unlimited camera time, so you can take as long as you need to warm up and get comfortable.  Bring as many outfits as you please because there’s no limit on the number of wardrobe changes. 

Then you grab some lunch while I cull and select the best photos for your same-day viewing and ordering. You don’t have to wait weeks to make a separate appointment to view your photos.

Best of all, you know the images you’re getting will look exactly like the ones on my website because you know who your “cook” (photographer) is. 

Now, that’s a meal You don’t have to feel guilty about!
