Hi! I’m so glad you’re here.
Whether you’re brand new to the world of boudoir or you’ve been thinking about it for a while, this Frequently Asked Questions About Boudoir guide is here to meet you, right where you are. No pressure, just real talk. Let’s answer your questions and help you feel more confident about stepping into this soul-shifting experience.
What Even Is Boudoir?
1. What is boudoir photography?
Boudoir is more than a photo shoot. It’s a celebration of who you are right now—your body, your story, your magic. It’s raw, vulnerable, sexy, empowering, and 100% about YOU. There are no rules here.
2. Who is boudoir photography for?
Literally everyone. No matter your size, age, gender identity, or reason for showing up. Whether you’re closing a chapter, starting a new one, or just want to feel amazing in your skin—this is for you.
3. Where is your studio located?
Right in Ferndale, Michigan at 800 Hilton Rd, just off Woodward. It’s a cozy, private space designed to help you feel safe, held, and hyped up. There’s parking on-site and yes, we’re wheelchair accessible.
Preparing for Your Boudoir Session
4. What should I wear to my boudoir session?
Anything that makes you feel hot AF or totally cozy—or both. Lingerie, bodysuits, oversized sweaters, leather jackets, your partner’s tee, nothing at all… whatever feels like you. And don’t worry, I’ll help you choose.
5. What about hair and makeup?
Professional glam is included, babe. I know how to enhance your features while keeping it totally YOU. This is your time to feel radiant.
6. How should I prep for my shoot?
- Hydrate, sleep well, and eat a nourishing meal beforehand.
- Avoid tight clothes that leave marks (and ditch the hair tie on your wrist).
- Bring multiple outfits + accessories you love.
- Stretch! Gentle yoga and movement will help you feel loose and ready.
- Most importantly: come as you are. Read more about prepping here.
What Happens During the Shoot?
7. I’m nervous! Is that normal?
YES. Most of my clients walk in a little nervous and leave like damn queens. I’ve got you every step of the way—guided posing, your favorite music, plenty of breaks, and zero judgment.
8. Will my photos be private?
Absolutely. Your comfort and privacy come first. I only share images with your permission—you choose what (if anything) gets shared. Period.
9. How long does the whole experience take?
Plan for 4-5 hours. That includes glam time, the full shoot, and breaks to hydrate, change outfits, and vibe out.
Products + What You Get
10. What do I get from my session?
After your shoot, you’ll receive:
- A private proof gallery to choose your faves from
- Gorgeous custom-designed albums
- Wall art + fine art prints
- High-res digitals for personal use
11. When will I see my photos?
Within 72 hours, you’ll get your full proof gallery. You can take your time choosing what you love most.
12. Can I order more products later?
Yes! Your gallery is archived, so you can always come back to add more products (or gifts 😉).
Booking, Payment, + Policies
13. How do I book?
Send me a message on Instagram @maganrogersboudoir or head to the Contact Page on my website. I’ll walk you through everything.
14. What’s your cancellation policy?
A $750 retainer holds your date. Life happens, so rescheduling is totally okay with notice. But cancellation means your retainer is non-refundable.
15. Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! Everyone deserves this experience. I offer in-house payment plans, Klarna, and Affirm. You can set up auto-pay and build a plan that works for you.
Still Have Questions?
I’m here. This is more than photography—it’s healing, transformational, and meant for YOU. If something’s on your mind that didn’t get answered here, reach out. Let’s talk about it, together.
You deserve to feel seen, celebrated, and supported.
Love, Magan
