I actually searched for boudoir photographers in my area as well as fashion/commercial photographers. I love the look of more fashion/stylistic photos than straight up boudoir photos. I wanted someone with some creativity so I wanted to find someone who's style I liked first. I figured that way if i liked the style for sure then they could tell me whether they could reproduce what I wanted. If you're really nervous or not sure how to go about things then you're probably better off using a photographer that has done boudoir sessions before so that he or she can direct you and give you additional ideas.

OK so stupid question here. I have never been a makeup girl, but want to get mine done before my bd shoot on Tues. How do you go about getting them to do your make-up for free at the MAC counter?? I know I sound like I am 10, but as far as experience with make-up I may as well be! Please help

I think at the Nordstrom MAC counter (at least in KS) you have to make an appointment ahead of time. Every time I go there just to shop their make-up artists are always full. I thought asking randomly if I could have it done on a drop in basis but since they're always full I bet they accept appointments.

I don't know if this is true everywhere but when I checked our MAC counter, they told me I would have to make a minimum $50 order to get my makeup done...
