Hair & Makeup

Do you provide hair and makeup services?Portland-Oregon-Boudoir-Photography-11

Yes, always! We work with some of the very best makeup artists in the northwest! Hair and make-up services are included in every package. Most clients choose to add on-site styling to make sure that the makeup and hair stays looking perfect throughout the entire shoot. You can also add a second makeup and hair look, if you’d like! We’re always happy to customize a look or package to create your best shoot!

 

Preparing
Chelsea_Peekaboo-051How should I prepare for my photo shoot?

Few Days Before:

  • Get your hair cut or colored so it’s in its best shape.
  • Treat yourself to a manicure/pedicure.
  • Choose what you are going to wear.
  • Don’t forget lingerie / high heels / accessories. We do have heels in the studio for you ranging in sizes from 6 to 10
  • If you have purchased new items then remove the tags and/or stickers.
  • Choose some loose fitting clothes to travel in. Make sure to wear nothing that leaves elastic marks on your skin!

A Few Hours Before:

  • Give yourself time to have a nice relaxing bath or shower.
  • Start imagining yourself as the confident, sexy women that you want to see looking back at you from these photos.
  • Shave anything that needs shaving, or we recommend waxing a few days before.
  • One final check of lingerie / high heels / accessories and pack it all into a bag.

The Day Of

Suzy_Peekaboo-035What should I expect when I come to the studio for my photo shoot?

Your photographer and makeup artist will welcome you into our beautiful boudoir studio with your choice of champagne, sparkling water, or tea.  We will spend some time getting to know you, the looks you want to achieve and what you feel comfortable with. We’re here to get you the looks that you have imagined and certainly some that you haven’t even thought of yet!  Let us know what you think your best features are and what your partner is most into.  We will help you choose your outfits from the selections you brought, will put on some high-energy music from your collection or ours and begin with hair and makeup.  When we’re done we will begin shooting, and we will guide you through the poses that will make your individual body look it’s very sexiest. In no time at all you will be pouting and posing like a pro!

 Outfits

Miss_M_Peekaboo-024How many outfits should I bring?

Bring whatever makes you feel and look super hot! A variety of options are great to have around and we can help you choose what will photograph best. We will shoot as many outfits are included in your package. A lot of our Peekaboo girls stick to sexy bras and panties; classic and seductive. Body suits and corsets always look great! Stockings, jewelry, and pearls are always fun. Many women like to buy new lingerie for the shoot and then hide it away until you get your album. When he sees you in the lingerie that you wore in the photos it’s sure to get a very enthusiastic reaction!

  • The Flirt package includes two outfits
  • The Vixen package includes up to three outfits
  • The Temptress package includes up to six outfits
  • The Sexkitten package includes unlimited outfits

Retouching

Miss_J_Peekaboo-007Do you retouch images?

We prefer to think of what we do as “perfecting” images. Our mission, first and foremost, is to make you feel sexy and gorgeous as YOU, not as a plastic Barbie doll! We do the perfect amount of smoothing and perfecting on all the right places- just the finishing touches to bring out your natural, unique glow. We touch up light blemishes, stretch marks, dimples and small bruises or cuts.

We can do further retouching upon request for a fee.

Guests

Jessica-Hill-Photography-055Can I have a guest in the studio during my Peekaboo shoot?

Yes! We want you to be as comfortable as possible and get the assistance you need, but remember that having another set of eyes on you could make you feel self-conscious. We do limit it to one person, and we ask that you bring a girlfriend. Our studio, as lavish as it is, is small, so we ask that your guest stay seated so that we have plenty of room to photograph. We also kindly request that your guest does not photograph you in our studio.

Group Rates

Deluxe_Boudoir_Party-430Do you offer group rates?

We most certainly do! It makes for a super fun bachelorette or birthday party. We will provide the champagne! Our group rates start at a minimum of 3 girls. E-mail us at info@peekabooportland.com for all the group package details!

Men/Couples

Portland_Boudoir_Photography (10)Do you do couples shoots? What about men?

We specialize in the Modern Boudoir Experience for women only. Our female-run business specializes in creating breath-taking and fashion forward images of women, for women, looking as sexy and empowered as ever! However, we are happy to recommend local photographers for these services.

Web

Miss_J_Peekaboo-047Do you share images on the web?

Never without your permission! We respect your privacy and would never show images that you have not approved, nor do we ever use real names. We do love to show off our sexy photos and your stunning body, so please let us know if you would like to share! We can always crop parts of the image so you remain anonymous, but you still have the thrill of seeing your gorgeous self published!

 

Booking Times

Miss_M_Peekaboo-090How early should I book my Peekaboo shoot to make sure it’s ready on time?

We like to leave six weeks to eight weeks in between your shoot and the day your partner unwraps their awesome gift. This allows for ample post production and album design time, as well as the opportunity to upgrade or order additional add- ons when you fall in LOVE with your pictures.

 

 After the Shoot

Portland-Photography4What happens after the shoot?

Now for the hardest part of all: choosing which of the beautiful shots you want to keep!  After the shoot we will send you a sneak peek of one of our favorite images from the shoot to tide you over until you see the rest. The images usually take about 3-4 weeks to process (we can put a rush on this for a fee) and once they are ready, we will have you come in to our studio for a proofing session to view the images on our large screen.  This is the time to choose the images you would like for your albums, prints, and other products.  There are many add-ons and upgrades that you can decide on and we’re happy to guide you through the process of choosing them!  Depending on which products you chose, they will be ready to pick up or ship within 4 to 8 weeks.  We will always make sure to get your products to you in time for that special anniversary or birthday present.   The best part of all is seeing your partner’s reaction to your incredibly gorgeous photos and feeling the difference in the new sizzle in your sheets!
