Couples Sessions FAQ
We love offering erotic and sensual sessions to couples! These are an amazing way to showcase the intimate side to your relationship.
We love when couples contact us to ask us questions, but we also love making that information readily available to couples before they even contact us. If you’ve ever had questions or wondered about how couples boudoir sessions run, this is the place for you!
Are these sessions priced differently than your regular sessions?
No they are not! All my sessions can be sessions just for you, or with you and your boo. While we do get a couple of individual shots during the beginning of the session, these sessions are typically focused on the couple and their energy.
Can we use your studio?
I typically do not recommend using our studio as it is a smaller space with limited couples posing.
Do we have to rent a location for the shoot?
You don’t have to! I love doing in-home couples sessions. You don’t need an HGTV-worthy home for this, just some good light and a couple of clean areas! I always recommend renting a location for the full experience. This way it’s like a little vaycay, and once we’re done shooting we can quietly see ourselves out.
How often do you pose vs. letting the couple pose themselves?
I usually tell the couple where I want them to be and the general pose, as well as examples of what I want them to do. However I encourage them to interact once they get settled into the pose and to touch, kiss and laugh all they want! For couples sessions, these sessions are typically less posed than my typical single-person sessions.
Can we have sex during our session?
YES - but this is a free bonus for our clients who are pre-paying or doing a payment plan for our Top Collection (6K INVESTMENT) and we will have many discussions beforehand with all parties who will be involved so we can go over what will be happening during the session. I take safety very seriously! Additional forms will need to be signed in before session can begin.
How can I convince my partner to book?
There’s no perfect answer here! Boudoir certainly is not for everyone, so if you’re having trouble convincing your significant other, I suggest booking an experience just for you so they can see first-hand how much these sessions can boost your self-esteem. If your partner is open, but has reservations, we always love scheduling zoom calls for anyone who’s interested in booking so we can get to know you and answer any questions. This isn’t a commitment to book, in fact we don’t even discuss pricing unless someone is actively wanting to book or asks. Contact us to ask about scheduling a time to chat!
Why won’t my partner do a couples session with me?
If your partner flat-out refuses, definitely don’t push it. “No” may not always be their answer! Some people don’t want to do these session and take it from me, that’s totally okay. Neither you nor myself would want your partner to come to a session if they don’t actually want to. Do it for yourself and show them it isn’t as scary as it may seem!
Do you offer erotica sessions?
Yes, we do! We offer special printing just for these sessions. Due to the explicit nature of these sessions, we ask that you contact us to learn more.
Are you kink-friendly?
Hell yes! We LOVE highlighting different relationship dynamics and personally feel that exploring kink can be incredibly beneficial for not just your relationship, but for all parties involved individually. We are all-inclusive, meaning that we highlight ALL bodies, sexualities, orientations as well as relationship dynamics. Don’t be shy! You kinks won’t make me blush- and I can bet you money on that.
Do I have to get naked?
Not at all! If you, your partner, or both of you do not want to get fully naked for your session, that’s a-okay. Not all couples boudoir sessions need to be overly sexual, and you and your partner are welcome to wear whatever makes you feel like the best you for your session.
Are sexual images required?
Absolutely not! Every session is tailored to my client, their needs and their vision. Just like all clients are not the same, neither are couples. What other couples did for their sessions may not work for you or be your style/comfort level.
Will these images be shared?
We never EVER share images unless given permission. Please refer to our general FAQ for our full privacy policy.
How can I book?
Fill out our contact form and get this party started! There is an option to purchase your session if you’re all in and ready to book. If you’re unsure and just want more info or to see if we’re a good fit, I’ll set up a consult so we can get to know each other. No pressure to book or talk pricing unless you’re ready! <3
