I get a lot of email on when the right time to book your session is and I have some pretty easy rules to follow on regards to timing your boudoir session. So here we go with a blog post, and some stunning photos of a recent boudoir babe we had studio to keep your attention.

First question I have is, do you have a deadline? Ideally for wedding Is say to give yourself a month out from your celebration to give us, without a doubt, plenty of time to get your album to your before your session. Also a month allows you not to feel relaxed- there’s lots of finalizing before your big day. Are you going to want to give these for a holiday like valentine’s day or Christmas? Check to see our cut off deadlines for those dates by emailing using the contact form at the bottom of this page. Most of the time for holidays we recommend shooting the month before your date. Have something that’s like an anniversary or special date that’s not a holiday? Two weeks minimum is requested to make sure we get your product in hand before your deadline.

Does it take me the whole qouted two week turnaround time for editing to email you your gallery for viewing? Usually not. Do I think it’s a smart idea to plan ahead and make sure we aren’t cutting it too close- absolutely!

Once you receive your gallery you’ll have the option to purchase printed items. Our product packages and prints take 2-3 days to create and we fed ex group ship directly to you. In total from ordering it take anywhere from 4-6 days to received your product package or prints items. Add on items often take longer, but that depends on their current production times. As always if you have a deadline and you’re worried about meeting it contact us!

In summary, here’s a handy break down of our recommended booking times:

Weddings - 1 month minimum

Holiday giving- Usually you would want to shoot the month before teh holiday. There might be special deadlines for Christmas and Valentine’s day, so please check with us using the contact form.

Anniversaries and birthdays- 2-3 weeks

Regular turn around times to receive your viewing galleries- 2 weeks

Times to receive product packages after viewing galleries - 4-6 days

What in the world is a milk bath boudoir shoot? It’s often something I get asked when people see it as a booking on option here at Roar Boudoir.

Well, it’s kind of exatally what it sounds like. We fill out wet set with a combination of milk and water, throw some flowers in and shoot. It’s a VERY popular choice for maternity boudoir - but I think it looks awesome even if you’re not expecting. Flowers can be an amazing personal touch as well. Real flowers float best but we can hack silk flowers to work too!

Here are a few examples from over the years. It’s a really fun session - even if it’s a bit kooky. :)

Miss F came in to create an absolutely gorgeous gift for her husband. I love how she rocked jewel tones, they are universally flattering to all our clients! Once you book your session we send you our do’s and don’ts for lingerie shopping. You’ll know exactly what works best for your photoshoot! Miss F. was such a pleasure to have in the studio - I know Mr. F loved his gift. Better yet I know that Miss F loved the images as well. Thank you so much for letting us share just a few of your stunning images!

A lot of my clients at Roar Boudoir turn into friends. Sometimes I meet a client whose just a little left of center, like me. When you get an email asking if they can bring, and be photographed with a bucket of fried chicken you book that shoot ASAP. Miss C. was seriously so amazing to have in the studio. I hope she comes back with another, out there, yet awesome request. She was gracious enough to let me share her images, I think they turned out beautifully!

We still have a few session open in time for Christmas Delivery, so don’t hesitate to contact me to book!

We introduced our milk bath sessions as our first creative mini shoot. Milk bath shoots are super popular with many of our client's thanks to the boho, ethereal look it can give. Maternity and beauty shoot both look amazing in our milk bath set! In addition to being able to book the milk bath set in our creative mini sessions, you can also add the milk bath session on to any solo session! 

Our beautiful client featured in this blog post opted to include it, and we think her photos came out absolutely marvelously! We also wanted to thank her for allowing us to share some of her favorites.

We often get clients that are stressed out about what to bring to a shoot. Never fear! Not only do we give you our comprehensive lingerie guide when you book, we also have an expansive wardrobe with so many different sizes and styles you're welcome to borrow when you shoot! Everything including heels, garter belts, bodysuits, jewelry and so much more.

We also encourage our clients to think a little outside the box in what they bring to their session. This beautiful, anonymous, client brought a sheer shirt and her partner's button down. We worked with this client to find ways to make the button down sexy, which wasn't hard! We kept this set more minimal and let the focus be our client's awesome smile and totally stunning bod. Contact us if you'd like more help in selecting items to bring to your session, we're always here to help! 

It's been awhile since we've done a behind the scenes video, so we thought we'd share one of our recent shoots! Billie had an amazing marathon session with us this October. Her photos turned out stunning, and we're so proud of this set! We especially loved being able to share her session because she's wearing exclusively pieces from the Roar Boudoir wardrobe. We're always expanding the offerings we can let clients borrow for the shoot! 

We love it when our clients let us share their sessions, at whatever level they're comfortable with. This beautiful redhead agreed to share some images from her session were we kept her face obscured. We had an absolute blast at the studio with her! 

Miss R. came to us to give her future husband the ultimate groom's gift for her recent wedding. We had a blast creating some seriously sexy looks to put into the album she gave her betrothed the day of their wedding. We love going a bit dark and moody when a client allows- Miss R. was a total blonde bombshell at her photoshoot. She loved her photos, and agreed to allow us to share some here on the blog. Thank you for letting us show everyone else how amazing you look! 

You might also notice that the website and logo have changed a bit! We're always striving to be a better, more creative, more exciting company here at Roar Boudoir. Now that we've been in the boudoir business for three, nearly four years, we were ready for a bit of an update. Whatever our look we're still delivering some of the most beautiful boudoir photography in the Cincinnati area, from our studio is still located in our beloved neighborhood of Pleasant Ridge. If you're interested in booking a photoshoot as a gift for the holiday season, just a reminder that our calendars are filling up quickly- Don't wait to contact us! 

We had so much fun in studio with Miss R. We played with some new lighting set ups and got some amazing photos! We also were able to shoot a behind the scenes video too, so make sure to check that out above as well! Thanks fo joining us Miss R. We can't wait to have you back! 

Miss R. was such a pleasure to photograph! We loved all the interesting body suits she brought! How gorgeous is the red piece especially?  Thank you for letting us share some of your images!

LENA-LENA X ROAR BOUDOIR

We love working with independent, and woman-owned companies. When reached out to Lena-Lena Lingerie because they represented to us a thoroughly modern kind of sexy. We loved the shapes, the cut outs, the sheer fabric. We were over the moon when Lena wanted to work with us.  So we enlisted one of our favorite previous Roar Clients to model some of these great pieces! We love it when clients bring us unique pieces. We plan on adding to our Roar Wardrobe with lots of independent brands, including Lena-Lena Lingerie! 

Miss S. was a total blast to shoot! We loved everything she brought. From the gold lame bikini, to her fedora, and most of all her stockings with bows. Thank you even more for allowing us to share a few photos of you that we absolutely love. Miss S. was a total peach, she even told us that it was "a shame we couldn't do this every weekend!". We agree, we'll totally help you find an excuse to come back! 

Sometimes our clients really want to share their boudoir session photos, but want to remain anonymous. Whether you want to keep your images private, proudly share them with the world, or somewhere in between; We'll make it work! You’re never required to share your session, we value your privacy above all else!  

This client has been working hard on her body this past year, she booked a shoot as a reward for all her hard work! Thank you so much for letting us share some of your gorgeuous images, we'd love to have you back anytime! 

We love repeat clients! Miss S. has shot with us before, right at the start the company! We were excited to show her how much we've grown in the two short years we've been open. It's really amazing what our passion and our clients support has created. We're so lucky to get to empower women for a career. Miss S. was gracious enough to let us share some of her killer images! We had so much fun with her dark and moody set. Check out how beautiful Miss S. is! 

Miss L. is one beautiful bad ass babe! We were so happy to have in her in Roar Studios this past weekend. She'd just come off of an MMA fight the day before, how cool is that? Our clients are all so talented, Miss L. being no expection. We love the finished images for her shoot, and are so flattered she's allowing us to share them with you! 

Awesome ladies! Professional, creative. They made me feel so comfortable! The studio and lingerie are beautiful, so many options. And the stylist Destiny is great too! I loved everything about it!

Here at the Roar Boudoir Studios we pride ourselves in the fact that we genuinely believe in the power of self-image, but very rarely are we rewarded with such an encouraging story as this. Miss K came to us in September for a photoshoot, she was absolutely thrilled with her final images and after showing them to her husband sent us an email explaining just how much her session meant to her.  She asked that we keep her anonymous, so is referred to here with a pseudonym.

You guys are amazing and did such an awesome job!! I had so much fun and felt so surprisingly comfortable doing the shoot. I love all of the poses that you knew to do. They're all very flattering to my body. I love how you edited everything and softened all of the photos without editing out every single detail of my body because, as you said, it is me...and I do love my body, quirks and flaws and all!

On a more serious note, you ladies have no idea what you have done for how I feel about my body right now. This kind of happened with perfect timing. I had a very unexpected miscarriage in March. I was 12 weeks along, which is when everyone tells you you're pretty "safe" to feel sure about everything. It was devastating, and we have been struggling with getting pregnant again since then. I have been having a daily hate relationship with my body for the past several months because of all of that. Not with how I look, but with how it's working. And I want to tell you that doing this shoot has really changed that for me. The way I felt during the shoot, how excited my husband was about it when I came home from the shoot, how much I love all of the photos and feel not just hot but beautiful when I see them. You have no idea what that has done for my frame of mind. 

So I just want to thank you for such an awesome experience! Like I said, I am telling all of my friends that they need to try this out sometime. And maybe when I show them some of the photos, they will get on board with it! You ladies rock, and you are doing wonderful things for women. I hope your business continues to thrive and burst at the seams with customers!

We were so touched by her message and thanked her for sharing her story with us.  A few months later she wrote us again!

Hi Anna and Paige! I just wanted to write you to tell you once again how much my photos mean to me. I mentioned to you guys that I had a miscarriage earlier this year and was having trouble getting pregnant.  My boudoir photo shoot made me love my body again, and my husband absolutely loves the photos.  Well, I have an update...I'm pregnant!  I will be 12 weeks (the "safe zone" of the second trimester) on the day after Christmas.  I can't help but feel that my photo shoot did something to help this.  I think it took a lot of stress off of me when I regained my good relationship with my body.  And stress can negatively affect a lot of things with your body.  Aaand...I got pregnant the same month that I got my photos back from you guys.  Just sayin...!  Now that I'm in the "do I look chubby or do I look pregnant" awkward first phase of pregnancy, it's very nice to be able to look at my photos and say "See, it's okay.  I'm still a hottie."
You guys are wonderful.  I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

We've never felt more strongly that we're doing good things! Most of us struggle inwardly with our self-image, putting ourselves down for being something less than perfect, when we're all human, we are none of us perfect, and we all need to learn to love and accept ourselves and others as we are. It's for women like Miss K that we do and love this work.  Join us in wishing her a hearty congratulations!

Miss S. came to us to schedule a session for herself. She's endured body image issues for a long time and thought that doing a boudoir shoot would be a step towards loving herself more, and we couldn't agree more! We were elated to help her on her self-image journey! Roar Boudoir believes in body positivity and practice it in all our photo shoots. We want your photos to look like you, and help you see that your body is beautiful just the way it is; Miss S. is no exception. She was so wonderful and easy to photograph! We are so pleased with the outcome of her shoot, and are even happier she's letting us share how beautiful they are with you! 

*All images and videos posted wth explicit client permission in writing. You are never required to share your photos online. We are more than happy to keep your shoot private.

Miss L. was such fun to have in our studio this past week. We adore how her photos turned out, and are pleased as punch she's letting us share some of them with you! 

Sometimes our clients really want to share their boudoir session photos, but want to remain anonymous. Whether you want to keep your images private, proudly share them with the world, or somewhere in between; well make it work! You’re never required to share your session, we value your privacy above all else! 

Our recent session included one of my favorite things, literature! We love incorporating little props that are special to our clients, and our client's partners.
