The studio building is located in Greensboro, NC, near Four Seasons Mall. This truly unique space is exclusive to Bare Studio Portraits.

With plenty of space, a blue velvet couch, queen sized bed, gorgeous tapestries, a deluxe claw-foot tub, and a makeup & hair styling area, this space is super luxurious and comfortable!

The studio is a judgement free zone. All shapes, sizes, ethnicities, and ages (21+) are more than welcome! This is the perfect place to experience a boudoir session in a safe, private, clean, and inclusive environment.

Preparing for your session is a lot easier than you would think! As soon as you are officially booked, you will receive a link to the Exclusive Client Access Login, which includes the Prep Guide as well as a detailed Styling Guide to get your mind, body, and wardrobe ready. I will never ask you to drastically change yourself, no crash dieting or extreme makeovers. I still want you stay true to who you are! Fake tanning or spray tanning is usually not recommended though. But if you would like to be a little more tan for your session, message Bree, owner of Bare Studio Portraits for recommendations!


Girl we got you covered! We have a Client Closet FULL of lingerie for you to borrow for your boudoir session! Our Client Closet includes sizes XS-5X in a variety of styles! However, we still recommend that you bring at least one outfit you know you love just incase your style is different than ours.

PS. Lingerie is not a make or break for your session! We can get pretty creative with only a fitted T-shirt, robe, or bed sheets. Other than that, this is the perfect time to treat yourself to a new piece of classy lingerie! The Styling Guide will be your best resource when it comes to choosing your outfits to bring!


Yes! We've heard everything from "I'm not pretty enough" to "I'm too fat," and we have no doubt that you can do this. Even if you've never done anything like boudoir photography before, we are here to make you feel comfortable every step of the way.

Ladies, you are enough. I promise you that. These sessions are all about loving yourself. Let me show you how beautiful you are, how gorgeous your body is, and how amazing you truly are! Boudoir does not have a specific size or look — it is for every woman.

Absolutely not! Throughout the session, I will expertly guide your poses from toe placement to eye focus, ensuring you look your absolute best.

Not at all! It is NOT required in any way to be nude for your session. In fact, you can wear as little or as much as you want! It's whatever makes YOU feel sexy and empowered! If you do end up deciding that you would like to be a little more risqué, the poses will continue to be classy. You will NEVER be fully exposed. I keep my sessions fun, yet very professional in every way.

All sessions include professional hair styling and makeup application at the studio. This experience is about pampering you from start to finish, which will help you look and feel your best for your session! Keep in mind, you do not have to have super glamorous hair and makeup for these sessions. If you are a more natural girl, we can most definitely provide you a polished natural makeup look.

If you would rather do your own hair styling or make up application for your session, the session fee will remain the same. We totally understand if you like styling your hair a curtain way, and choose to forgo these professional services offered to you. If doing either your own hair or makeup, please complete it before arriving at the studio as to not take up your session time.

We only share images with a written and signed model release.

Your privacy is very important to us. If you’d like to keep your images confidential, you can absolutely do that. Of course, we also love to share images of our incredible clients. 

We provide Viewing and Ordering Sessions the same day of your shoot! That's right, you get to observe and buy your images the SAME DAY we finish shooting, which should be around 1:00 PM. You will take a 45 minute break for lunch, and then when you come back all the images will be prepared for you. You will be able to decide which items to purchase during the Viewing and Ordering Session.

Yes, but I primarily focus on surface or skin-level modifications to your images (cellulite removal, acne, etc.). My posing techniques are designed to highlight your natural assets, accentuating curves and enhancing areas like your booty, which you may not have realized could look so good! So, in a way, my camera and posing strategies give you that 'boost', rather than extensive retouching.

It takes four to six weeks to receive your images back from the day of your session. We recommend having your session at least ten weeks from when you need them to allow ample time to select and order products, and receive them in time.

After your boudoir experience, will sit down and chat about how things went for you during the session. We will also take 45 minute to 1 hour break before your image reveal where you will be welcomed back to the studio afterwards to preview all of your beautifully hand-retouched photographs! 

During your image reveal, you will see your beautiful photographs in a lovely slideshow. There will be multiple final images of which you may choose the photos that fulfil your package selection.  Also, I will provide you with expert advice to help select your favourite images, and to make sure your album design is one of a kind, if you choose that option. We will also go over the various Premium Products such as wall art should you choose to proudly display your session at home!

If your session is on a tight time frame please let me know as soon as possible. Typically I recommend your session happen at least 3-6 months in advance whenever possible. I will always do the best I can to accommodate your needs. There is also a 10% rush fee if we need to meet a quick deadline.
