Where do the private photo sessions take place?
We can shoot where you will feel most comfortable, at your home, at my studio or at a posh hotel of your choice.
What if I have a very specific look in mind?
Then please share it. If there is a certain look you saw on a movie, magazine or somewhere let me know and I can share it with my style team. We will do everything possible to recreate the look while using your personality to make it your own.
Do you shoot weddings too?
I never wanted to be the photographer who will shoot anything from pets to weddings :) I think a great photographer knows their strengths and focuses on a niche' that fits their style.
I have shot weddings in the past and if a client insists, I will :) however, I have found my niche' with Boudoir photography! :)
Do you just shoot future brides or can anyone schedule a session?
Anyone! I have women doing it for her wedding, for her honey's birthday, their anniversary, for Valentine's Day or just because…because she just got a divorce, she lost weight, she just got "enhancements". There really is not a bad reason to do it. The reasons are endless and your images will be timeless.
Would you shoot romantic photos of me and my fiancé/husband together?
Yes, call me to talk through the specifics.
Do you bring in special lighting equipment?
Yes, if we are shooting anywhere other than my studio, I will bring everything needed to capture my signature look.
Do you provide hair and makeup?
Yes, it is included in our Bombshell Experience packages but it can also be added on to the other packages. I have an amazing style team! Elizabeth (Liz) Hello is our master hairstylist and Lisa Jauregui is our amazing make-up artist. My Bombshells and I are lucky to have them.
Who retains the rights to the photos? Tiffany Tagle Photography owns all the rights to all the photos. Having said that, I have and will always completely respect the decision of my clients to publish or not publish their photos. The women on my website, Facebook, blog, etc have all given me permission to use their images.
How does the private photo session work?
The day of your private session, we will start with you getting your hair and make-up done by our awesome style team (if you choose that option) then we will go through your wardrobe to help you decide your favorites and when you are ready we’ll take our time and get you working the camera in no time. :) When we are finished with our session, you will schedule your gallery viewing party and you will also have a chance to look through our products to help give you an idea of what you'd like.
Can I bring someone?
Sure, however once we start its usually best if they wait somewhere else to not distract you and the photographer
What sort of wardrobe options would you recommend?
Wear what fits your personality! If you go splurge on lingerie you would normally not wear and aren't comfortable in, it will show in the photos, trust me! Your outfits can be fuzzy pajamas, a cute bra/panty set, corset w/ garters, fishnet stockings, a babydoll teddy, boyshorts, tanktops, you honey's shirt or just a tie! :) I always say bring it all and I can help you decide if you can't :)
What should I bring to wear?
Again, bring what fits your personality…lingerie, bra and panty sets, corsets, robes, tank-tops, boyshorts, fuzzy pajamas, your honey’s shirt…just think outside the box, you can make anything look sexy. Bring it all if you are unsure. Don’t forget the accessories, jewelry, high heels!!! High heels are a must!!! ;)
How do I prepare for the session?
Wear loose fitting clothing and undergarments when you arrive so that you don’t have red lines or marks on your skin. Drink a lot of water the day before. If you are getting dolled up with our hair and make-up team, moisturize your face the morning of and shape your eyebrows for a cleaner refreshed look. Wash your hair day before and keep it loose. If you usually apply mousse or product in your hair, that is ok too.
When do I pay for the deposit, session fee and/or the products?
The deposit is required to book the date we decide on, the remaining balance of the session fee is due on or before the day of your photo shoot. The payment for the products are due before they are ordered. The deposit is non-refundable if the session is cancelled but can be applied to a rescheduled session within 30 days.
How do I book a session?
Call or email Tiffany to sync up your calendars and decide on a date and time that works best. Email: tiffany@tiffanytaglephotography.com
Do you provide wardrobe or props?
No, I think every woman has their own sexy style and likes to show that side of them. They also get so excited to show me what they bought for the session, I would never come between a girl and her lingerie shopping spree! :) Props work the same way...they are specific to each girl and their honey. I tell my clients to bring something that is significant to their relationship and him. So they may bring his work shirt, a football, his favorite jersey, his cowboy hat, his tie, the stuffed animal he gave her on their first date or his motorcycle! :) (I can't stock a motorcycle; my husband would kill me, ha ha)
Will you "photoshop" my little flaws?
Yes, I specialize in little (and big) flaws. My consultations include going through my retouched before and after photos, if you are interested in checking them out :)
Do you have books or samples that I can view for inspiration or ideas for poses?
Yes
How many years of experience do you have as a photographer?
Too many to admit to ;) ha ha, I have been studying photography since I was about 12 years old and love it!
How long have you been shooting boudoir photos?
I started shooting Boudoir in 2009 and have never looked back! :)
Have YOU ever posed for a boudoir session?
ha ha ha, uummm, maybe! ;) ha ha Yes, I have, just recently actually! I was telling my bf I was losing weight to do a session myself and then I thought...what a hypocrite! I am constantly telling women they are gorgeous the way they are and they don't have to be models and then I won't take mine until I am thin! So I decide to take them and be proud of them no matter what my size is! It was awesome, hilarious and I am SO happy I did it, I can't wait to do it again :)
I’ve always wanted to do this but I am shy and am not a model.
This is not about having the perfect body; the Boudoir experience is about feeling beautiful and photographing your body at your comfort level. My passion is working with everyday women and bringing out the bombshell in her (you!) Every photo I display is of a woman who walked in just as shy as you feel now. :)
I have so many questions, can we schedule a consultation?
Absolutely! This is a great opportunity to meet and talk through any questions and ideas you have. You can browse through more samples of my work and you will also have a chance to view our retouched before and afters.
What would you tell the women who say, "Oh, I could never do that!"
Ha ha, well first of all, EVERY SINGLE CLIENT has said that! :) Which I think is so cute because they all say, "I could never look like that one girl on your website," but little do they know the girl they are talking about said the exact same thing a few months before! So I would tell her "obviously your honey thinks you are a sexy little number, or he wouldn't be with you, right? You don't have to be a VS model, my gorgeous clients are all "everyday" women, so you can do it!!"
Still have questions?
Email me at tiffany@tiffanytaglephotography.com or call me anytime at 512.423.5010
Ultimately, this should be a very fun and exciting experience. It’s totally normal to feel nervous but you won't be for long. Me and my all girl team will pamper you and make sure you are completely comfortable! It's the most fun you'll ever have...until the night he gets them! ~Tiffany
