STEP ONE

Reserve Your Session

Booking your boudoir session is easy! Just head to our Book Now page, choose your package, and find a photoshoot location. Browse available dates and times to find what works best for your schedule.

Once you’ve booked, keep an eye on your inbox for a confirmation email. Inside, you’ll find access to your Client Portal, where you can review and complete your Session Agreement. Once that’s signed, your session is officially confirmed, and we’ll take care of the rest!

Rather book over the phone? We’re happy to help! Give our team a call at 888-907-0387, Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. PT, and we’ll help you get everything scheduled.

STEP TWO

Your Session Day

The Tuesday before your photoshoot, you’ll receive a Personal Session Details email with everything you need to know before your session, including your photographer’s name and direct phone number. When you arrive, give your photographer a call or text. She’ll meet you in the lobby, introduce herself, and walk you up to your session suite.

From there, it’s time for your photoshoot! Your photographer will guide you through the entire experience, from posing to finding your best angles. All you have to do is show up, enjoy yourself, and let us take care of the rest.

STEP THREE

View Your Images

It’s time for your Virtual Image Reveal & Ordering Appointment. Your Image Specialist will walk you through your photos, help you narrow down your favorites, and explore the different ways you can enjoy them. Whether you’re interested in a custom album, artwork, or a little bit of everything, she’ll help you put together a package and payment plan that works for you.

STEP FOUR

Bringing It All to Life

Once you’ve placed your order, we’ll send everything over to our production lab to get started!

If you paid in full at your Image Reveal & Ordering Appointment, you can expect your products to arrive within 4 weeks. If you chose a payment plan, your order will arrive within 2 weeks of your final payment.

Booking & Preparation

I’ve never done this before, and I’m nervous. Is that normal?

Absolutely, being nervous is completely normal. Most of our clients are first-timers, so you’re definitely not alone in feeling that way.

At Cherie Amour Boudoir, we guide you through the entire experience from start to finish. Before your session, you’ll receive helpful preparation resources, outfit guidance, and support from our team whenever questions come up.

When it’s time for your shoot, your photographer will walk you through everything. Boudoir photography is a specialized art form, and our photographers are trained to direct poses, expressions, and movement in a way that feels natural, flattering, and confidence-boosting, even if you’ve never been in front of a camera before.

Booking is simple! Depending on the session or package you’re interested in, there is typically either a session fee or a refundable deposit required to reserve your date, since our sessions tend to book up quickly and availability can be limited. You can easily book online by visiting our booking page, entering your zip code, and selecting the closest Cherie Amour Boudoir location we photograph out of. If you’d prefer a more personalized experience, you’re always welcome to call and speak directly with our team at 888-907-0327. We’re happy to walk you through the process, answer questions, go over package options, and help you choose the experience that feels like the best fit for you.

For the best experience, we recommend booking your session at least one month in advance. However, if you need your images for a special occasion, we suggest booking 3-4 months ahead to allow ample time for your order to be processed and delivered. This also gives you the flexibility to use our payment plans and avoid rush fees. If you’re in a pinch, we offer expedited delivery options to help get your images sooner.

We offer boudoir sessions ranging from 60 minutes to 150 minutes, and the session length you choose really depends on the type of experience you’re looking for.
Our 60-minute sessions are the most popular for a standard boudoir experience and give us plenty of time to create a beautiful variety of images. If you have a more detailed vision in mind – like incorporating multiple themes, elaborate outfits, props, or simply want extra time to settle in and play around creatively – we typically recommend booking one of our longer sessions. No matter which option you choose, our goal is to make sure you never feel rushed and that you leave feeling confident, comfortable, and excited about your experience with Cherie Amour Boudoir.

Not at all. Most of our clients have never been professionally photographed and often arrive saying they have “no idea what to do” in front of a camera. That’s exactly what we’re here for. Our photographers at Cherie Amour Boudoir will guide you through every pose, expression, movement, and angle so you never have to figure it out on your own. We demonstrate each pose, give clear direction throughout the session, and tailor everything to flatter your unique body and help you feel comfortable. Most clients are surprised by how quickly the nerves fade once the session begins and how much fun they end up having.

We photograph in cities all across the country! We don’t have a fixed studio location. Instead, we hold sessions in luxurious hotels, professional studios, or partner Airbnbs in select cities. This allows us to create unique, intimate settings that align with the mood of your session.

We don’t offer hair and makeup services at this time. However, our team is always here to support you if you have any questions in that area leading up to your session.
We’re more than happy to provide styling tips, general recommendations, and guidance to help you feel confident and prepared for your shoot. At Cherie Amour Boudoir, we want you to feel fully supported from start to finish, and that includes helping however we can with your overall look and preparation.

If you had a deposit required to book your photo shoot, it is fully refundable as long as you attend your session or reschedule in accordance with our policy. Our standard policy allows one free reschedule if it is made outside of 22 days prior to your scheduled shoot. Think of it like a deposit for a salon appointment – it simply holds your date and time for your session at Cherie Amour Boudoir. As long as the policy is followed, your deposit is returned or honored appropriately. That said, session fees are different. If your booking required a session fee rather than a deposit, those are non-refundable.

We do not require you to wear anything specific for your session. Lingerie is what most of our clients choose, but it’s absolutely not your only option. We also have clients who wear slips, chemises, oversized button-ups with panties, boxer briefs with a simple everyday bra, bodysuits, or other pieces that feel more like you.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and confident in what you’re wearing. Just keep in mind that, regardless of outfit choice, the posing style will still reflect the more elevated, sensual boudoir experience you see in our work at Cherie Amour Boudoir and our photographers will guide you through that in a way that feels natural and supportive.
