Frequently asked questions.
I’ve never done anything like this before. Will you help me pose?
Absolutely. Most of my clients are first-timers. I’ll guide you through every single pose — from head to toe — so you never feel unsure or awkward. I’ll show you what to do with your hands, how to breathe, and how to channel your inner badass. You won’t have to figure it out alone — that’s what I’m here for.
Do I have to get naked?
Nope. You decide what you wear (or don’t wear). Some women show a lot of skin, others stay fully clothed in cozy sweaters or lacy robes. This experience is about you feeling confident and powerful — on your own terms. You’re in control the entire time.
I want to do this, but I’m not confident in my body right now. Should I wait?
This is the exact reason you should do it now. Boudoir isn’t about having a “perfect” body — it’s about seeing the beauty in the one you have today. You don’t need to lose weight or change a thing. I promise you’ll walk away seeing yourself in a whole new light.
What if I don’t feel sexy?
You don’t have to come in feeling sexy — that’s my job. I’ll help you tap into a version of yourself you maybe haven’t met yet. It’s not about performing. It’s about showing up as you are and letting your power come through naturally.
Where are you located? Do you travel?
I currently photograph clients in North Carolina — including Aberdeen, Pinehurst, Raleigh, and Charlotte — and I’m expanding to the UK in 2026, with sessions available in and around London. If you're outside those areas and interested in working together, reach out — I may be traveling near you.
What’s included in a session?
YYour session includes:
Professional guidance on posing and styling
Access to my exclusive prep guide
The full photo session experience (typically 2.5–3 hours)
Intimate image reveal and product ordering
Makeup + hair professionally done for you
Full collections, wall art, albums, and digitals are available à la carte.
Will my photos be shared publicly?
Only if you give written permission. Many clients keep their photos 100% private, while others are excited to be featured. You’re in full control of what’s shared — always.
What if I don’t like how I look in photos?
I get it — most of my clients say that before they arrive. But this is different. You’re not going to be overly posed or photoshopped into something unrecognizable. You’re going to see the version of yourself that your best friend sees. And that’s powerful.
“Before the shoot I was so nervous I wouldn't like myself or how my body looked, but Courtney made great suggestions, at no point did I feel awkward about where to place my hands, arms, legs, etc- it was so well curated and I felt more confident as we went”
Miss L.
“I’ve always had body dysmorphia and never like pictures of myself so it was nice to feel confident and sexy and actually like pictures of myself.”
Miss A.
“I wanted to do something to feel sexy because I struggle with my body image. This felt so natural and you really made me feel comfortable and confident. The photos were pushing what I could afford, but it was totally worth it. I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you for giving me a special experience!”
