I cannot believe it’s been three months since my last shoot. Oh how things have changed in such a short amount of time!

When things shut down, I had pretty much just gotten back into the swing of things after my maternity leave. I was working towards opening a new studio, rolling out a year full of amazing sessions, and setting up some educational resources for fellow photographers. But alas, life is funny and had other plans for us all! I never imagined I’d be homeschooling my kid! After much patience and time we are ready to re-open and start capturing beautiful boudoir images for you again!

Here are some things you should know:

  • Initially, session availability will be limited. I will be maxing out at 2 sessions per week as a start. The extra protocols take up a bit more time and will cause a reduction of session availability.

  • Please be courteous of everyone’s health. If you or anyone in your household has a temperature of over 100.4 degrees or COVID-like symptoms please contact me to reschedule. Reschedule fees will be waived if they are COVID related.

  • Know that I will be doing temperature checks for anyone on set - myself, hair and makeup artists, clients and friends - as an extra layer of protection.

  • Please arrive wearing a mask. I will be wearing a mask as well, as will everyone on my staff. Friends who join the shoot will also be asked to wear a mask at all times.

  • Hand sanitizer and/or soap will be available at your session for use.

  • I will be maintaining as much social distancing as possible during our shoot and will utilize long lenses that allow me to photograph you from farther away.

  • Your contract will now include an additional COVID Liability Waiver. Please don’t be alarmed. This is to protect both of us from liability if we have unknown germs.

  • Please note this is a fluid situation and may change based upon governmental directives, CDC recommendations, and legal advisement.

    Whew… that was a lot! Are you still with me? If so, let’s talk about some exciting news!

    I am ITCHING to travel - how about you?? So, I will be planning a destination boudoir shoot for 2021! I’m still hashing out the details but it will be a tropical destination not too far from NYC. I will be offering both a boudoir workshop for fellow photographers AND individual beachy boudoir shoots for clients. I’m also HOPING to host a past client event at what I consider to be the best hotel suite in Brooklyn. More on that as the city continues to reopen. Exciting stuff!

    Ready to book/rebook your session?

    I’m so excited to see you! I know many of you had sessions scheduled when we had to shut down.Let’s get those rescheduled and new sessions booked! Shoot me an email and we’ll get you on the calendar. Please remember that session availability will be limited. The sooner you are on the books, the more likely you’ll be able to get your preferred date!

xoxo, Stephanie
