Top 12 Most Frequently Asked Questions About Boudoir Photography - What women are asking us when they inquire
Embarking on a boudoir session can be a nerve-wracking thought for many. As the owner and photographer of Diosa Boudoir, I often find myself engaged in conversations with women who have various concerns and questions about their upcoming session. To provide some clarity and ease your apprehensions, I've put together a comprehensive list of the 12 most frequently asked questions. Let's delve into these queries to ensure you're well-prepared and excited for your boudoir experience with me!
Is hair and makeup included?
Absolutely! Hair and makeup services are included in all our boudoir sessions at Diosa Boudoir. We believe in providing you with a pampering experience from start to finish, and having your hair and makeup professionally done is a key part of that. Our talented team is here to assist you in achieving the perfect look, whether you prefer a natural "I woke up like this" style or full-on glam. Feel free to bring any makeup inspiration or ideas you have, and we'll work together to bring your vision to life!
2.DO I HAVE TO WEAR LINGERIE?
While lingerie is a popular choice for boudoir sessions, it's not a requirement! At Diosa Boudoir, we want you to feel comfortable and confident in whatever attire you choose. Upon booking your shoot, we'll send you detailed emails with tips on how to prepare, including outfit ideas and suggestions on where to shop for the best outfits suited to your body type. Throughout the entire process, our team will be by your side, providing guidance and support every step of the way.
Lingerie isn’t the only option think outside the box , there are plenty of other options to explore! Consider a lace or satin robe that you can effortlessly remove as you start to feel more comfortable during the session. Another popular choice is a white tank paired with cutoff shorts for a casual yet sexy look. Or, opt for the cozy charm of an oversized sweater for a relaxed and intimate vibe. Whatever you decide, we'll ensure that your boudoir experience is personalized and tailored to your preferences.
3.who will edit my photos? Will you photoshop me?
At Diosa Boudoir, we prioritize your privacy and security above all else. Rest assured that your precious photos will be handled with the utmost care and attention to detail. Your images will be edited in-house by our owner, Tanya, who also serves as the lead photographer.
We take your privacy seriously and never outsource your photos to third parties.

We take great care in ensuring that every photo you receive is retouched to magazine-quality standards. Our goal is to enhance your natural beauty while maintaining authenticity and celebrating your unique features. From smoothing out skin imperfections to adjusting lighting and colors, our meticulous retouching process is designed to highlight your best self in every image.

Our team consists of skilled and passionate individuals who are dedicated to creating a comfortable and empowering environment for every woman who walks through our doors. From the photographers to the hair and makeup artists, our team is committed to ensuring that your boudoir experience is not only enjoyable but also tailored to celebrate the beauty and confidence of every woman.
5.how many outfits can I bring?
When preparing for your boudoir session with us, you may be wondering how many outfits to bring. We encourage you to bring up to four outfits of your choice. While we do offer an extensive client wardrobe for you to borrow from, we always suggest bringing anything you think you might want to wear. This ensures that you have a variety of options to choose from and allows us to tailor the session to your unique style and preferences. Upon your arrival, our team will be there to assist you in selecting the perfect outfits for your session, ensuring that you feel confident and comfortable throughout.
6. who will be at my session?
When you arrive for your session at Diosa Boudoir, you'll be warmly greeted by either Sarah or Tanya, our talented photographers, who will be there to open the door and welcome you with a smile. Additionally, you'll meet your dedicated hair and makeup artist, either Leanne or Sam, who will be there to pamper you and ensure you look and feel your absolute best.
During your hair and makeup session, you can expect a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere filled with laughter and girl talk. Our team loves creating a fun and comfortable environment for our clients, and we'll be right there chatting away with you as we prepare for your session.
Once your hair and makeup are complete, your makeup artist will bid you farewell. From there, it will just be you and your photographer. Rest assured, you'll be in great company throughout your session, and we'll do everything we can to ensure you have an unforgettable experience.
7. What experience do you have?
We boast extensive experience in boudoir photography at Diosa Boudoir. Tanya, our owner and lead photographer, brings over 13 years of dedicated expertise, having captured the beauty of over 2,500 women throughout her career. Her journey has taken her across the country, honing her craft and serving as a mentor, training dozens of photographers along the way.
Joining Tanya is Sarah, our associate photographer, who also boasts over a decade of experience in boudoir photography. Having photographed thousands of women herself, Sarah shares a deep passion for the art of boudoir alongside Tanya, with whom she has cultivated a close friendship over the past 8 years. Together, Tanya and Sarah bring a wealth of knowledge, skill, and passion to every session, ensuring an exceptional experience for each client.
8. am I the only session of the day?
Both Tanya and Sarah come from a background where they previously worked for a national company, often photographing up to 20 women in a single weekend. However, when Tanya decided to open Diosa Boudoir, she made a conscious decision to veer away from this fast-paced approach. Recognizing the importance of providing each woman with the personalized experience she deserves, Tanya opted for a different approach.
At Diosa Boudoir, we prioritize quality over quantity. We limit our sessions to one per day, ensuring that each client receives the time, care, and attention they deserve. While we may occasionally schedule two sessions on weekends, we always allow for a generous five-hour gap between sessions. This deliberate spacing ensures that our sessions are never rushed, and every woman has the opportunity to fully immerse herself in the experience she envisioned.
We firmly believe that every woman who takes the courageous step to book a shoot with us deserves nothing less than our undivided attention and a truly memorable experience.
9. WHERE IS YOUR STUDIO LOCATED?
Our studio is located right by Sawmill Market 1751 Bellamah Ave NW , Albuquerque,NM
10. Will you share my photos online?
we understand the importance of privacy and respect your wishes regarding sharing your photos online. We will never share your photos without your explicit permission. After you've had the opportunity to view your photos, we'll kindly ask if you would be comfortable with us sharing them. However, if you prefer to keep your photos private, we completely respect your decision.
11. Do you offer payment plans
We believe that every woman should have the opportunity to experience the empowerment and beauty of a boudoir session. That's why we offer flexible payment plans, allowing you to spread the cost of your session over a period of up to 6 months. Our payment plans involve recurring payments directly with the studio, making it convenient and manageable for you to invest in your boudoir experience without any financial stress. We're dedicated to making your dream session a reality, and our payment plans are just one way we strive to make that happen for you.
12. am I too old for a shoot?
Absolutely not! This is a question we hear more often than you might think. Many women express concerns about their age, wondering if they're too old to book a boudoir session, even though they deeply desire the experience. Let me assure you: age is truly just a number when it comes to embracing your beauty and confidence. At Diosa Boudoir, we've had the privilege of photographing women in their 70s, and each session has been a celebration of timeless beauty and self-love. You are never too old to experience the empowerment and joy of a boudoir session. So whether you're in your 20s, 40s, 60s, or beyond, know that your age is not a barrier—it's a testament to the journey of self-discovery and self-love that knows no bounds
