Mini Session - Festive Baking Shoots! Baking Session Fun Boudoir Images

Introduction to festive boudoir baking sessions!

This was SUCH a blast of a session, run out of my own kitchen in Hampshire, England. Nigella Lawson inspired baking fun with a Boudoir twist. These sessions are two hours, the first hour is all making and rolling dough, playing with flour and poses on the island. The second hour is a change of outfit, dripping icing onto your body and biscuits and making you into the real life snack you are.


The great thing about a festive baking session is that there's always something to do with your hands! Using icing, rolling pins, flour and making real biscuits meant loads of opportunities for fun, naughty poses.


Why do a seasonal mini boudoir session?

Seasonal mini sessions are Boudoir but made fun! They're a great starter for someone who hasn't done anything like Boudoir before or as a seasonal gift for a parter. Christmas minis made great Christmas pressies as did the Valentines Mini session! Other mini sessions are great content for SW's who need shoots to spice up content.


Could I do these boudoir sessions clothed?

Yes! Absolutely, if you are looking for social content, branding or pretty images to keep for yourself but you don't want to be in your undies, there's no pressure at all and I am happy for you to style yourself in any way you see fit!


But what about posing?

I have two main services, boudoir and weddings but on top of these I have shot branding sessions, maternity, kids, families, all sorts!! In the past few years I have built a huge repertoire of poses ready to use for all people and so if you want to come and do a boudoir set as a professional I can help.


What about Hair and Makeup?

Hair and makeup isn't included in mini sessions but I am always happy to arrange this service and have lots of incredibly talented contacts I can ask to come into the studio first.


I want to do this set!

This session was from 2023 but if you'd like to do this session I'll be running it in 2024, just pop me a message about pre booking when it goes live or check out my mini offering for my bi-monthly seasonal set.



Can't wait to host you already!

hi! I'm cat and i am a full time wedding photographer
(and a little bit of a photography geek!)
 
I started taking photos as a teenager, my Dad was a wedding photographer and I would often help him. In 2021 I left my corporate job with a dream and hope that I could make photography a full time job. Since then I have been pouring my heart and soul into this business and have been honoured to be chosen as wedding photographer for so many lovely couples as well as being a portrait and event photographer.  
I TAKE CLASSIC, TIMELESS, DOCUMENTARY STYLE PHOTOGRAPHS WITH MINIMAL INTRUSION

 

But I will step in and offer gentle guidance when it's right to do so, I have learned over the years to read the room, anticipate the next move, hold space when needed and offer support when I can.

aRE YOU LOOKING FOR A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?
When choosing a wedding photographer, consider their style, experience, portfolio, and reviews from previous clients. It's also important to discuss pricing, availability, and any specific requests you may have.
 
Don't forget to meet with them in person to ensure you have good chemistry and feel comfortable with their approach.

Once you have narrowed down your list of potential wedding photographers, it's a good idea to ask them some key questions to help you make your final decision.

 

Here are a few questions to consider:

  • What is your photography style? Do you prefer a more traditional approach or a more candid, documentary style?

  • Do you have experience with weddings of a similar size and style to mine?

  • Can I see a full gallery of a recent wedding you photographed? This will give you a better sense of their consistency and quality of work.

  • Do you have backup equipment in case something goes wrong on the day of the wedding?

  • How do you handle difficult lighting situations (e.g. low light, harsh sunlight, indoor vs. outdoor)? This will help you gauge their technical expertise.

  • What is included in your packages? Are there any additional fees I should be aware of (e.g. travel, overtime)?

  • How long will it take to receive my photos after the wedding? Will they be edited and retouched?

  • Can you accommodate any special requests I have (e.g. specific shots, family portraits)?

  • How do you ensure that you capture all of the important moments on the day of the wedding?

By asking these questions and having an open and honest conversation with your wedding photographer, you can ensure that you find the right fit for your big day.
