  1. General Overview

  • My boudoir studio is located in a modern, private loft on the beautiful Lachine Canal in Montreal. The space is designed to make you feel comfortable and luxurious, providing the perfect backdrop for your photoshoot. You'll enjoy the privacy and exclusivity of the studio, ensuring that your experience is both intimate and memorable. It's easily accessible by car or public transit, and I'll provide detailed directions when we confirm your session.

  • A boudoir photoshoot is an empowering and intimate photography experience designed to capture your beauty, confidence, and personality. It’s all about celebrating who you are, in a way that makes you feel gorgeous and empowered. Whether you're dressed in luxurious lingerie, a favorite outfit, or something completely unique, the focus is on making you feel comfortable and confident. The session is tailored to highlight your best features, creating stunning, tasteful images that reflect your unique essence. It's not just about the photos; it's about the confidence and self-love you gain through the experience.

  • A glamour photoshoot is a transformative experience designed to capture your beauty with a touch of high fashion. While it can be as intimate and empowering as a boudoir session, glamour photography is all about creating editorial, fashion-forward images that showcase your unique style. With professional hair, makeup, and a carefully curated wardrobe, you’ll feel like you’re stepping into a magazine spread. The focus is on celebrating your confidence and elegance, resulting in stunning images that reflect both your inner and outer beauty.

  • Boudoir and glamour photography for anyone who wants to celebrate themselves and embrace their beauty, regardless of age, body type, or life stage. It’s for individuals who want to feel confident, empowered, and see themselves in a new, positive light. Whether you’re marking a milestone like a birthday, anniversary, or just because you deserve to feel amazing, boudoir and glamour photography is a perfect way to honour who you are. It’s for those who want to step out of their comfort zone, indulge in a luxury experience, and create stunning images that capture their strength, sensuality, and personality.

2. Before the Photoshoot

  • To prepare for your boudoir and glamour photoshoot, here are a few steps to help you feel confident and ready:

    1. Self-Care: Treat yourself to some pampering before your session. Consider getting a manicure, pedicure, or a massage to help you feel your best.

    2. Hydrate and Rest: Drink plenty of water and get a good night’s sleep before the shoot to ensure you’re feeling and looking refreshed.

    3. Outfit Planning: Decide on the outfits or lingerie you want to wear. You can choose from the wardrobe available at the studio or bring your own pieces that make you feel amazing.

    4. Avoid Tight Clothing: On the day of your session, wear loose clothing to avoid any marks on your skin.

    5. Relax and Trust the Process: There’s no need to worry about posing or looking perfect— Andrea your photographer will guide you through everything. Just relax and enjoy the experience.

    By following these tips, you’ll be all set to make the most of your photoshoot and feel fabulous in front of the camera!

  • We offer a fully stocked wardrobe with a variety of luxurious lingerie, accessories, and dresses to suit different styles and preferences. You're welcome to use anything from our collection during your session. However, if you have specific pieces you love or want to include something personal, feel free to bring your own. Combining our wardrobe with your personal items can make your photos even more unique and tailored to your style.

  • While I understand the desire to bring a friend for support, I recommend coming to your boudoir photoshoot solo. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in the experience without distractions. The photoshoot is a personal and intimate journey designed to focus entirely on you, helping you feel confident and empowered. Rest assured, I’ll be there to guide and support you every step of the way, ensuring you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the session.

My goal is to create a comfortable and supportive environment where you can relax and embrace the experience. With 18 years of experience, I know how to guide you through poses and moments that highlight your best features, making you look and feel amazing. Remember, this session is all about celebrating you, and by the end of it, you'll likely feel more confident and empowered than ever.

4. After the Photoshoot

  • You’ll typically see your photos within 10 days after your photoshoot. Your images will be narrowed down to the best from your photoshoot and they will be lightly retouched. Once you’ve made your image order, I’ll retouch your chosen images to perfection, and your final photos will be sent out within 4-6 weeks. This approach ensures you get exactly the images you love most, beautifully polished and ready to treasure.

  • All images that you order from your virtual reveal will receive professional retouching to enhance your beauty while maintaining a natural look. The retouching process includes smoothing skin, removing blemishes, softening lines, and adjusting lighting and colour to create a polished finish. I also refine the overall composition to ensure each image is as flattering as possible. My goal is to enhance your best features while keeping the final result authentic to who you are. If you have any specific requests or concerns, we can discuss them during your consultation to ensure you’re thrilled with the final images.

  • Your privacy is my top priority. All images and personal information are handled with the utmost care and confidentiality. Your photos are stored securely and are never shared without your explicit consent. If you choose to allow any of your images to be used for marketing or portfolio purposes, a model release will be required, but this is entirely optional. Additionally, the reveal session is conducted privately, and only you will have access to your final images. I take every measure to ensure that your boudoir experience remains discreet and that your images are protected.
