These guidelines are here to keep scheduling, payments, and sessions straightforward for everyone. Please review them before booking so you know what to expect from your session and from the studio.
PHOTO SESSION GUIDELINES
01 / STUDIO ENVIRONMENT & GUESTS
The studio is reserved for women’s boudoir and fine art portrait sessions. Because sessions may involve changing, lingerie, draping, or implied or nude imagery, I ask that you come to your session alone unless another arrangement has been approved in advance.
Partners, friends, children, and pets should remain at home so the studio stays private, focused, and distraction-free. You are welcome to bring a trusted guest to your Photo Reveal.
Boudoir and fine art clients must be at least 18 years old and no longer in high school. Valid photo identification may be requested. The studio does not create imagery that is exploitative or pornographic in nature.
02 / ARTISTIC STYLE & RETOUCHING
Please review the portfolio before booking so you’re familiar with the style of work I create.
Professional retouching includes skin cleanup, temporary blemishes and bruising, color correction, and final image finishing. I do not digitally reshape bodies or significantly alter natural proportions.
Traditional pinup photography is not offered unless it is part of a specific studio promotion. If you have a particular idea, concern, or creative direction in mind, please bring it up before your session so we can determine whether it fits the work I create.
03 / REVEAL, DELIVERY & PRIVACY
Sneak peeks are not provided before your Photo Reveal, and photographing or recording the reveal slideshow is not permitted.
Final images and products are typically ready within 2–4 weeks after your selections are completed, depending on the products ordered and the current studio schedule.
Your photographs are never shared on the studio website, blog, social media, advertising, or other marketing without your written permission.
If you choose to sign a model release, any incentive associated with that release will be explained before you agree to it.
SCHEDULING
01 / RESERVATIONS & PAYMENTS
Your session is not reserved until the required payment has been completed.
Available payment and installment options are shown at checkout. If you select an automatic installment plan, the card provided at booking will be charged according to the schedule shown when you enroll.
All payments made to the studio are non-refundable.
Please reserve enough time on the day of your appointment so you are not rushed through your session or other scheduled services.
Any additional images, artwork, or upgrades selected at your Photo Reveal must be paid for at the time of ordering unless another payment arrangement is offered. No digital images or physical products are released until the balance associated with that order has been paid in full.
02 / RESCHEDULING
If you need to move your appointment, please contact the studio as soon as possible.
Requests made within five days — 120 hours — of your scheduled appointment are subject to a $150 rebooking fee.
Each client is allowed one emergency reschedule per session for circumstances such as illness, a genuine emergency, or unsafe weather. North Dakota winter conditions are monitored closely, and sessions may be postponed when travel is unsafe.
After an emergency reschedule has been used, additional rescheduling requests are subject to a $500 rebooking fee to compensate for reserved studio time and any scheduled team members.
03 / CANCELLATIONS & NO SHOWS
Cancellations and no-shows are non-refundable.
If you cancel a session and later decide to book again, a new reservation and payment will be required.
Promotional pricing, bonuses, gift-with-booking offers, or other incentives are tied to the terms of the original promotion and may be forfeited if the appointment is canceled or moved outside the promotion’s eligible dates or requirements.
The studio reserves the right to decline future bookings when repeated cancellations, no-shows, payment issues, or other circumstances make it difficult to provide services reliably.
03 / IMAGE SATISFACTION & RESHOOTS
I want you to be happy with the photographs you choose.
If you are unhappy with your images, please tell me at your Photo Reveal before selecting or purchasing photographs so we can address the concern while options are still available.
When appropriate, a reshoot may be offered. A reshoot must recreate the original session as closely as reasonably possible, including wardrobe when applicable, and replaces the original proof gallery. The original images will not remain available for later selection.
Reshoot requests cannot be made after final images have been selected, delivered, or sent into product production.
PAYMENT PLAN POLICY
01 / AUTOMATIC INSTALLMENTS
Payment plans are available on many studio collections and promotions. The available schedule, total cost, and any applicable payment-plan fee will be clearly shown when you book.
A valid credit or debit card is required for automatic installments. Credit cards are often more reliable for recurring payments because some banks place daily limits or restrictions on debit-card transactions.
By selecting an installment plan, you authorize the studio to charge the card on file according to the payment schedule you selected.
02 / FAILED OR DECLINED PAYMENTS
If an automatic payment is declined, the studio will contact you by text or email so you can update your payment information.
You will have three business days to correct the payment.
If payment is not received within that time and we are unable to resolve the account, your session date may be removed from the calendar. Payments already received will be converted to studio credit toward a regularly priced future session or collection, subject to applicable North Dakota gift-certificate requirements. Any promotional pricing or bonuses attached to the original booking will be forfeited.
02 / REPEATED PAYMENT ISSUES
After two failed or declined automatic payments, the automatic payment plan may be canceled. Any remaining payments may then require manual invoicing, with a $25 processing fee per invoice.
No photographs, products, or other deliverables will be released while an account has an outstanding balance.
If an account has repeated late or failed payments, the studio may require the remaining balance to be paid before additional services are provided, including hair and makeup or the photography session itself.
The studio may also require full payment at booking for future appointments when previous payment arrangements have not been completed as agreed.
