    Hey girls! Some of you may have read the post a while back from other brides. They got together and organized a group boudoir session to save money. If anyone else is interested we can save on the hotel room rental by spliting it and possibly also negotiate a better price with the photogs for having multiple clients. Also hari and makeup people may offer a discount for multiple people. Anyone interested??? I really want to do these sexy photos for my FI but I don't want to get to crazy with how much I spend on them. So if you are in the OC area and want to be included respond or send me a private message.

     Hope to hear from some of you soon!!!!

    If you don't find anyone to take pics w/you might want to consider the photographer I took my B-pics with.  I thought she was pretty affordable compared to some others and I thought my pics turned out great.  Her name is Caroline and her website is www.littledetailsphotography.com 

    You can actually see some of my pics in her portfolio.  I'm the last girl in the B-pics section of her site.

    I got the album from Caroline too and I love it!!!  I've been forcing all my girlfriends to see it because I can't give it to my FI yet and I'm dying to!!!

    Hi!

     Stressgirl615 how much did you pay for your Boudoir photos and how long was the session.  Did they offer to do your hair and makeup?  How much were the pictures? 

    I'm also taking some sexy photos for my future hubby and found this studio www.pinkkittystudios.com I like it because it's run by all women, photographers, editors, make up artists etc.

    I'm curious to know what you paid for your pics.

    I looked on pink kitty and they charge at least double what Caroline charges. It is about $250 for the session, CD of pics, leather album. You can upgrade to a coffee table album for $100 more.

    I looked on pink kitty and they charge way more than double what Caroline charges. It is about $250 for the session, CD of pics, leather album. You can upgrade to a coffee table album for $100 more.

    The only thing w/Caroline of Little Details Photography is that she does not provide the hair/makeup or the location.  Lucky for me, I have a cousin that works at a hotel so I got a room for a good rate.  Then I got my makeup done at the Chanel counter at the mall.  If you are in the area, I would definitely recommend Lisa at the Chanel counter in the Macys at the Arcadia Santa Anita mall.  I really liked how my makeup came out.  You can see it in Caroline's boudoir portfolio on the website.  I'm the last girl.  Plus, all you have to do is buy 2 Chanel products for the makeup session.  You can't lose.  :)

    That other site you said is definitely way! more expensive than Caroline, plus they would charge you for hair/makeup anyway.  My session w/Caroline was 2 1/2 hrs long.  I paid a bit less than what she charges now which hroper22 stated above because I signed with her before she started her business.  I did get the coffee table style book and I loved how Caroline laid out the pics and choose which pics goes w/which.

    Hmmm, pinkkitty is double huh.  I'll have to check out Carolin's website. How long did it take you to get your pictures after the shoot... to give me an idea when to take them?  Did Caroline provide props and that sort of thing?  That's one thing pinkkitty offers. Wouldn't want to use the costumes though.... grody!
