THEChrissy MARIE PHOTO CO EXPERIENCE

Absolutely. I adore travel and would love to be there for you, wherever your big day is!

Will you travel for my wedding?

I will send you a customized proposal following our introductory call with your personal package details. Once that is approved, I will send over your contract, booking & invoice. A deposit & signed contract is required in order finalize your booking. 

How do we reserve our wedding date?

While this is certainly not required, I do highly recommend ordering your prints and album professionally. Part of my process once your images are complete is to have a photo viewing together where we can select photos for your album so that I may professionally curate your album for you. I absolutely love this part of the process so we can relive the most special moments of your day! 

Do I have to order my prints & album through you?

While I do not offer planning services at this time, I am happy to make these recommendations based on my personal experiences of them and knowledge of their work. I will also be reviewing your wedding details and building a timeline with you, especially in the last month or so leading up to it. 

Do you help with planning?

Please allow 2-3 weeks for your full retouched gallery to be delivered. I will send you a link to your password protected gallery, from which you will download your high resolution images for sharing & printing. We can also review options for printing and other art upon completion.

How long will it take to receive my photos? 

I am happy to travel for you! I typically stay within New Jersey, New York or Pennsylvania for an individual session. Travel expenses are typically a flat rate of $50 within 25 miles from my base - for locations over 25 miles from my home a travel expense of $0.65/mile outside of NJ and any required lodging will be added to your total investment. 

Will you travel for a session?

I find that the simpler the outfits, the more sophisticated and timeless the photos, so I recommend neutral tones such as black, white, cream, and taupe. Keep in mind "Neutral is Nice!"  You will also be provided with my style guide upon booking, and have access to my complimentary Client Closet for suggestions and additional options to wear! I love to help style you, so I am always happy to review your desired selections with you leading up to your session.

What should I wear for my session?

Personal, intentional and intimate. My main focus is making sure that you are comfortable and fully yourself, so that you can have photos that reflect the feeling you have during the most important times of your life. I will talk you through candid & prompted movement to get those flowy, happy images, as well as still & intentionally posed for the emotional, intimate pictures. 

What will my experience be like?

Session faq's

Please inquire at this time. My private in-home intimate portrait studio is set to open in the fall. I am booking in advance and am anticipating a wait list. I will be having a call with every woman who books with me. Our initial call will be a sort of self-exploration to go over what your goals are and what you hope to get out of this session. I will prepare a customized package for each person until my formal standard packages are available. Once you have your session, we will share a review of your photos during a gallery reveal where you will select your photos. Final album delivery will be approximately six weeks from your session date.

What is this process like? How can I book a session?

My boudoir photography will be entirely centered around each woman as a personal inward journey of self-expression. My goal is to empower women to rediscover their confidence and strength. I will involve you every step of the way to ensure you feel comfortable and safe. This experience is all about you, where together we discover new ways for you to find love in yourself. Traditional boudoir has a heavy focus on overt sexuality, and while your sexuality will be a part of this process, the focus is much greater, expressed through intimate portraiture in an artful, classy yet powerful way. 

What makes your boudoir photography different from traditional boudoir?

Boudoir faq's

Boudoir and intimate portraiture is intricately intertwined with motherhood. Think about all that a woman’s body does during pregnancy. It is a wonder that should be celebrated always, and that extends to the bond between mother and child. Intimate motherhood sessions are intended to truly dive into and capture the love that mother and child have between each other. This may include a session that is restful, playful or both. It may involve breastfeeding, bathing, and any loving touch that involves the incredibly important skin-to-skin connection that is unique to mother and child. 

How does this tie into intimate motherhood sessions?

With a heavy emphasis on self-expression and true, raw, authentic reflection, I strongly suggest taking the time to think about and discuss with me what you want to take away from this session. I will walk you through all of the ways to reflect about your body. I will help you choose clothing items that feel flattering to you and we will work in-session to find ways to express the best parts of yourself. Editing is a long process and ensures that I am bringing out the best in you. While I do ensure that you receive the highest quality photos, I encourage you to consider that I will not provide *heavy* body modifications. We can discuss further what this means to you on a personal level all throughout your process.

What about my body? How do I choose what to wear and what gets photographed? What about the Editing process?
