Do It For You Because You Are Fine Art!

Jay & The Bellissimo Creative Team

When was the last time you took an entire day to simply feel beautiful?

You Are Fine Art

Boudoir is about the feeling you have during your photo shoot…

Not the lack of clothes you have on. Come to your session in a little black dress or anything less because we meet you at your comfort level.

The Intimate Glamour Experience

The Intimate Glamour photography shoot is like no other experience you have ever encountered. We will ensure you feel pampered, empowered and loved!

-After you have confirmed a date that works best for your schedule we will send you a survey via email where you will answer questions to best customize your session. Based off of those answers, we will create a pre-shoot styling consultation to ensure you have the looks you are wanting. We will choose looks specifically designed for your body type and an overall idea of the look you were wanting for the shoot. These items can be purchased however most women already have them in their wardrobe.

-On the day of your shoot you will be greeted with refreshments while you get your hair and makeup created by our professional stylist. This look will be best tailored for your own intimate glamour session.

-You then get private access to the entire studio for a minimum of two hours of shooting. This includes unlimited outfit changes and access to our own unique fashion pieces. You have free range of all of the background sets to guarantee you have a multitude of looks for your session. From the glamorous gold, ivory and blush pink bedroom with custom bed, crystal chandelier and unique design details, to our bohemian lounge that is turned into the look of a New York-style loft, our studio will allow you to truly feel like you are on your own movie set!

-Furthermore, we will be there to coach you though all of your poses! Even the best supermodels didn’t come in looking and feeling like they knew how to position their body or give the expressions they needed to look as amazing as they do! If you will understand one thing by the end of your shoot it is that modeling is something that is taught, not naturally done. However, with personal coaching throughout the entire process you will feel confident on how to move your body to create beautiful portraits!

-Then four days after your private session you will come back to view your gallery of edited pictures in which you can then choose what collection you would like to purchase. We have a multitude of unique photography products that will display your images in a way that enhances your beautiful photos for the customized look you are wanting!

FAQ’s

“I’M EXCITED BUT EQUALLY NERVOUS! WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO BE PREPARED FOR A BOUDOIR OR INTIMATE GLAMOUR SHOOT?”

I am with you all the way! From the moment you have your first inquiry to the day of your viewing session you will be supported, empowered and confident that this was the best decision of your life! I am here to cheer you on, encourage you and most importantly be your friend! It is my mission for you to feel even like the amazing woman I know you are! This experience will leave you feeling more courageous and radiant than ever before!

“I’VE RARELY FEEL CONFIDENT TAKING A SELFIE MORE OR LESS DOING A FULL PHOTO SHOOT. HOW WILL I EVER LOOK LIKE THE SEDUCTIVE WOMEN ON YOUR SITE?”

Models don’t naturally walk or pose the way they do in a shoot and neither do the ladies that I photograph. From the moment we take the first shot, I will coach you on how to move and pose every part of your body. From where to lay your fingers, to how to hold your head, to the direction you need to turn your body, I will guide your through every pose. What’s even more exciting is that during the shoot and after you will feel more confident in how to hold your body so as to best flatter your own unique figure.

“SO SPEAKING OF FIGURE, I WOULD LOVE TO DO A SHOOT BUT I JUST NEED TO LOSE ABOUT 15 POUNDS FIRST. I DON’T WANT TO DO IT AT THE SIZE I AM NOW ESPECIALLY AFTER SEEING THE MODELS ON YOUR SITE."

The entire point of an intimate glamour or boudoir photo shoot is to celebrate the beautiful woman you are today! All sizes, body types, figures and ages are the right ones! And as for the women on the site and on our social media, we cater to all sizes, shapes and ages and never use professional models. The point is to show that all women are beautiful in their own unique way!

“I WANT TO DO THIS BUT I DON’T WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE JUST ANY TYPE OF BOUDOIR SHOOT WITH JUST A PLAIN BED AND ME. I WANT IT TO LOOK GLAMOROUS AND UNIQUE TO MY STYLE! IS THAT POSSIBLE?”

When I created the studio, I wanted to make sure it had a variety of sets to complement any style. From the glamorous gold, ivory and blush pink bedroom with custom bed, crystal chandelier and unique design details, to our bohemian lounge that is turned into the look of a New York-style loft, our studio will allow you to truly feel like you are on your own movie set!

”I REALLY WANT TO DO THIS FOR ME…IS THAT WEIRD?”

From the first time I started doing this type of photography I said it was all about the experience, the portraits were just the byproduct! This truly is a day for YOU! That’s why we are so intentional in providing you the most custom and luxurious experience you have ever had. Before we even meet we will send you a questionnaire to ensure you have a unique look. You then will come in for a 1-hour consultation to discuss your needs and the type of style you are seeking. From there we will give you suggestions for your wardrobe, incorporating what you currently have, pieces from our own collection, as well as, items you may want to purchase. One the day of the shoot you will be pampered with refreshments while your hair and makeup are being created by our professional stylist. We will then shoot for at least two hours so that you have all of the looks you are wanting. Finally, you will come back in four days to view your professionally edited images and purchase from our unique line of boutique photography collections. Because you are fine art!
