| Q: A: |
Where are you located? Haute Shots by Stacie is based in Las Vegas, NV. |
| Q: A: |
Where are the Haute Shots photo shoots done? We prefer to use luxury hotel suites with fashionable decor suitable for such boudoir style shoots. However, we have worked with many clients who have or have access to beautiful homes at or around Las Vegas and we will accommodate private shoots at these locations. |
| Q: A: |
How many people will be present
for my shoot? Your privacy is always respected before, after and during your boudoir shoot. The only people on set are Stacie and a makeup/hair artist (if you have requested one). When participating in one of my marathon day of shoots, clients are scheduled back to back throughout the day and do not overlap. This is your time to shine and we don't want anything or anyone interfering with that. |
| Q: A: |
Can I bring a friend to the shoot with me? Yes, but only if you have both scheduled a shoot. While bringing a friend might sound like a good idea, it usually makes the subject matter (you) more self conscious, unless the friend is doing a photo session as well and has prepared the same way you have. |
| Q: A: |
I am not a 20 year old model. Do you shoot women of all ages? Stacie specializes in making every woman look beautiful and sexy in her photos. The most common boudoir clients are between 35 & 55. |
| Q: A: |
I found this really great picture from a magazine and was wondering if you can get a shot like
that of me? Yes! We highly recommend bringing magazine or fashion publications with various looks you may want to be duplicated during your own shoot. You can also find numerous looks online by searching terms like "boudoir", "glamour", "erotic photography". Please try and forward any looks to Stacie before your shoot so she has time to prepare |
| Q: A: |
I looked over your packages but I can't find information on pricing? How much does this
cost? Pricing information is available to all who inquire. Please email us and we will be happy to address any questions that you have and provide you with a current pricing structure. We will also be sure to add you to our mailing list to alert you about new specials and promotions. |
| Q: A: |
I would love to do a sexy boudoir shoot but I do not want my face to be displayed on your web
site. Will my privacy be assured? Your privacy is held at the highest regard. Haute Shots owns the copyright to all of the images Stacie shoots, and she reserves the right to use them for business promotion purposes. Be that as it may, all clients are given the option to opt out of having their faces shown on our site. This option will be presented to you in writing when your sign your model release contract before your shoot. |
| Q: A: |
Will my photos be retouched? And what exactly does that mean? Digitally retouching the images adds a bit of magic to them. Retouching not only enhances your beauty but also reduces imperfections. We are flooded with retouched images of perfection on a daily basis by the media. We have met many celebrities and believe us, they never look as good in person as they do on the cover of your favorite magazine. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to see themselves this way too! Stacie does not believe in HEAVY retouching though. We want the real YOU to shine through loud and clear. We will smooth your skin until it's perfect, remove stray hairs, and help you lose a pound or two (digitally). We also can make the colors pop, and perfect your makeup, etc. |
| Q: A: |
How long before I will receive the prints from my shoot? Stacie does all of her photo retouching herself. This process takes approximately two weeks for us to complete digital retouching, and prepare prints for production. It then takes another week or so for the lab to print and ship it back to us. We use one of the top professional print labs in the country and there are many printing options that are available including UV coating, metallic photo paper, album and calendar printing. Stacie will show you examples of these options at the time of your shoot. |
| Q: A: |
Are having prints made required or can I just get photos that I can use online (web ready)? You do not need to have prints made, although nearly all of our clients that thought they would not want prints changed your mind after seeing the shots from the shoot. Haute Shots owns the rights to all photos and you may only publish photos with our watermark on the web or anywhere else unless you have expressed written permission from us. |
| Q: A: |
I need pictures for a web site or other commercial venture. Do you offer photos
without your watermark? Yes, we do offer special packages that include my release for commercial, or web use. The images delivered to you will not have the Haute Shots watermark on them. Other conditions may apply so please inquire. |
Styling (Hair, Makeup & Wardrobe)Having your hair and makeup done professionally is the most essential contribution to your shoot that you can make. You would never, ever see a model or actress enter a photo shoot without being made up by a makeup artist and hair stylist. To your benefit Stacie lives in the entertainment capital of the world and she has the best hair and makeup artists available to us at rates reasonable for the every day women. Not only does the makeup artist & hair stylist make you look gorgeous, it is the process of being beautified, being catered to and pampered that gets your mind and body ready for your special shoot. The decision to have a makeup artist/ hair stylist present is ultimately yours but remember this is YOUR time to look and feel like a star. Saving a few dollars here is denying yourself part of this amazing experience. |
|
| Q: A: |
Are hair and makeup included with the photo session? At this time a professional hair and makeup artist can be made available to you for your session, at your request. In the near future I will have one on hand for every shoot. |
| Q: A: |
Can I do my own makeup? If you do not want to use our makeup/hair stylist there is usually a salon in each luxury hotel or as a last resort, you could take advantage of a $50 makeup application at any MAC store (call your closest MAC store to set up your appointment). Always specify to the makeup artist that this is for a photo shoot. There is an art to applying makeup for photos and they are trained for that. |
| Q: A: |
Do you provide outfits for my shoot? We do not provide wardrobe but we will be happy to help you select outfits that will work well with the set background. If you're having trouble finding the right outfits for your shoot and are in need of something new but don't know where to shop, email me and I will send you a list of a few of my favorite lingerie stores. |
| Q: A: |
Do I need to show nudity in my photos? Clothed, partially clothed, hinted nudity and fully nude can all be sexy. |
| Q: A: |
In your packages you use the term "Looks". What do you mean by "Looks"? Looks can be defined as outfit changes. The amount of outfit changes will be determined based on which package you choose and the length of time we have devoted to your session. We will then allocate a certain amount of time towards each outfit you are to be photographed in. |
