Frequently Asked Questions about Boudoir.

Boudoir. 
It's exciting
It's inciting
And it's confusing and intimating all at the same time! 

If you are thinking about a boudoir I'm sure you have some pretty big questions on the top of your head. That's fine. I mean it's not everyday you are standing half naked in front of a perfect stranger. 


So you have questions... I've got answers.








Q: Boudoir. Pornography. What’s the difference?

A: Well for starters Boudoir is suggestive, while porn is... well you know. And you don’t have to be complete nude or revel anything at all when it comes to boudoir photographs. One of the most important things about being sexy is being confident. If you feel that way wearing jeans, by all means, wear jeans! Or a button down men’s dress shirt. Sure why not? Classy, suggestive, and flirty.


Q: Can you Photoshop my images?

A: If you would like to have say, stretch marks, a scar, that unwanted, embarrassing tattoo from when you were 16 removed. Sure that is do-able. If you want an image turned black and white or made sepia. Sure again there is no problem with that either. However please keep in mind that photography is an art form. Please do not ask for the background colors to be changed and add a boarder of stars around the picture and through in this quote about stars and moons. For those types of things, use your Iphone with your own images.


Q: What type of woman have boudoir photography sessions? 

A: All women! All shapes, sizes, ages, coloured skin, body types. All women. 

Q: Are my photos going to end up on the internet?

A: I understand that these images are more intimate then your standard garden variety portrait so, Not if you don’t want them too. Icing Sugar Photography only uses your photos for advertising and online portfolio purposes with your say. It is completely okay if you wish to keep your images private.


Q: Do I have to be naked?

A) No. Not at all. I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.... what is really sexy is confidence.  And confidence comes from being comfortable with who you are! If you want to wear a button down mens dress shirt and panties, go for it! You want to rock jeans and a bra, wear it. Matching bra and panty set? Why not? Corset? No problem. Topless? Of course. You do you boo!

If you have other questions feel free to get in touch with me! I would love to answer anything you got! And put your nerves aside!

Choosing Your Location, Fall Addition

It's that time of year again where the weather changes and vibrant hues surround us. So looking for a place to take photos may be different than a place in the summer or winter that you enjoyed. Choosing a location that best suits you and your comfort level is important. It is good to pick somewhere that will make your session memorable and pleasing for you. Find a place that fits well with your personality and gets you to enjoy your experience. Some of my favorite places in the Fall time are Morningstar Mill, Malcolmson Eco Park both in St Catharines. As well as Firemans Park in Niagara Falls, McFarland House in Niagara on the Lake, and Balls Falls in Vineland.  Morningstar Mills is a heritage site located at Decew Falls. This site features a beautiful working mill rebuilt in 1872 and is surrounded with trees and water. It is a good naturalistic place to go, especially in the fall time when there are numerous colors all around you and a beautifully built mill overlooking some wate...

An open house vendor show!

Vendor shows, craft shows, whatever you prefer to call them, I love them. They are a great way to help get your name out there, get involved with your community and reach out to potential new clients. They are also a great way to network with like minded business. It was a vendor show around Easter this spring that I met France, co-owner of Gems for You, a jewelry company with interchangeable, snap gems, allowing you customize your jewelry. You are able to mix and match pieces to go with every outfit in your closet. Take a peak at some of their products.     I have been working for Gems for You for several months now, photographing their wonderful line of versatile jewelry for their website and social media pages. And I am now excited to be a part of a Christmas open house that Dave and France will be holding later this months. Although the show is being held on both October 31st and November 1st, I will only be there for the 1st, taking mini Christma...
