FAQ

-WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING FOR MY BOUDOIR/PINUP PHOTO SHOOT?

Please bring a 2G USB drive, a skin colored bra and a skin colored pair of panties/thong (neutral colors are fine as well). It’s always a good idea to bring an outfit or costume you feel comfortable in just in case you do not find something that suits you from our selection. Please also bring a pain of skin tone nylons, preferably the ones without a control top or built-in short. If you are allergic to certain makeup products please bring your own products as we use MAC and Benefit products in our studio.

-WHAT IS A (Glamour) PINUP PARTY?

A pinup party is a photo shoot for you and your friends, it’s also a great way to have fun with your friends for a bachelorette party, a birthday or just because! We provide shoes, costumes, clothes and corsets from sizes small to 4X (styles vary). We also offer a variety of fun props to make your shoot more unique! The ambiance of the studio is chic and there are many photo possibilities both in studio and within the historic St-Amboise building where we are located. All our clients receive full glamour treatment with complete hair and makeup (MAC cosmetics). Both the photographer and the stylist will help you get your best possible photos. A party is approximately one hour per person, however we do offer a shorter version, which consists of one portrait, great for larger groups short on time!

-HOW DO I CHOOSE A VENUE IF I DON’T WANT TO DO IT AT YOUR STUDIO?

We also offer a home service where we bring the studio to you! An extra travel fee of 50$ applies (transportation of equipment, clothing, props, shoes and products).

-I AM A PLUS SIZED OR PETITE WOMAN – DO YOU HAVE WARDROBE FOR ME?

Yes we do, though sizes may vary per style. We offer sizes small to 4X!


-WHAT KIND OF RETOUCH SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?

Complete magazine airbrushing on request, but otherwise we just refine your skin and reshape within reason (i.e. erasing the love handle hanging out of your undies, but not dropping you 8 dress sizes)


-HOW DO I DECIDE WHAT PROPS AND COSTUMES I SHOULD WEAR FOR MY PHOTO SHOOT?

You are always welcome to stop by the studio before your shoot and peruse our selection. Otherwise let us know what inspires you & what you want to portray. Do you want to be a sexy Bettie Page? A flirty Marilyn? A fierce Joan Jett? Let us know and we’ll do our best to make your vision a reality.


-HOW LONG BEFORE I SEE MY PHOTOS?

You can view the “rough drafts” of your shoot immediately after the session. Depending on your package you will also choose your images to be retouched at this point. Afterwards, your photos will be sent to you after 3 weeks. WEDDING PHOTOS: The time span is longer due to sheer volume, you will start receiving images within the first week and you will receive the bulk within 3 months.

-CAN I ORDER PRINTS OR SPECIALTY ITEMS FEATURING MY SHOOT?

Yes, we offer 4”x6” to 11”x17” prints and 19”x30” posters. Please check our PACKAGES page for pricing.
