Chances
are you're reading this because you're finally ready
to do what you've been thinking about for so long. You're
wanting to pamper yourself or surprise your significant
other with sensual and personal images of yourself.
Perhaps you're celebrating a milestone in your life
and want to preserve your beauty as you are now.
Whatever
your reason, I welcome the opportunity to photograph
you at this time in your life in an artistic, sensual
and tasteful manner. Every woman is beautiful and deserves
to be photographed in a way that brings out her best.
As
a woman photographer I feel I have a good idea of how
a woman would want to be photographed, what to bring
out, what to camouflage and am sensitive to various
issues that we, as women have. I have an understanding
of what exactly those issues might be and talk with
you to determine what areas you are most happy with
and what you are comfortable focusing on.
I
advise on wardrobe (you provide your own clothing) and
highly recommend the services of a Make Up Artist to
enhance your natural beauty. With skill and experience
I capture you in ways that are flattering to you, minimizing
areas you're concerned about with proper positioning
and lighting. I use a limited amount of props, but do
have various sheer material available, sheets, pillows
and a soft alpaca rug.
My
glamour, boudoir and intimate sessions are therapeutic
as you will be the centre of attention. It is all about
you.I create an atmosphere that is easy
going, comfortable and most of all fun so that you can
be your true self.
Many
of my clients come in with no specific image in mind,
no problem; we work one on one to create the perfect
look for you. I work with you to create something that
captures the essence of your personality and style within
your comfort zone. Or, if you prefer, I'll help you
expand your comfort zone to a new level that you never
previously thought you could reach, but will be thankful
you did. I can't tell you how many times clients have
told me that it was a liberating experience, that I
made them look and feel like a model and that they truly
enjoyed the session and had fun. I've photographed women ranging from 19 to 76 years of age, of all
shapes and sizes. For many it can be a chance to come
out of your shell and shed your inhibitions.
This
is a great gift idea for those that would love to see
your loved one posed sensually for you. Sessions can
take place in my studio or
in a location of your choice. You also have the option
of including a Make Up Artist to come to the studio
for your session based on their rates.

-- Andrea Rees
Glamour/Beauty
You
are fully clothed, mostly in fashionable outfits. These
sessions are more about the face and clothing; you get
to act like a fashion model.
top
Boudoir/Romance
You
are more revealing, but also a combination of glamour.
Focus is on the body as well as the face, wearing sexier
clothing such as lingerie, bra and panty sets, or if
for your mate, something personal of theirs. You can
be clothed or completely nude but with strategically
placed sheets, pillows, hands, sheer material with nothing
revealing. Sexy and very sensual posing.
top
Intimate/Fine
Art Nude
You
are even more revealing, but can combine both glamour
and boudoir if you'd like. Focus is primarily on the
body and anonymous body parts. It's a private look into
what only a few see. Generally, you are nude or partially
nude in these sessions.

Important
Notes
Your portrait creation will not be limited to a set number of poses (unless specified due to promotions); it is based on our time together which is generally about an hour in the studio and allows for 2-3 outfits. If you have more than 3 outfits, please inquire about the extended session. Within 15 days after your session, you will come back to view your images in the studio. At this appointment we will discuss the many options available to you to assure that you have made the best choices for you. Your orders must be placed at this appointment. Please allow up to 1.5 hours, but many appointments are completed within 45 minutes.
The most important decision you will make about your portraits is where and how you will display them in your home. Will you display wall portraits, a custom designed Storybook/Storyboard or albums? What size would look best over your bed, the fireplace? Will a Canvas Portrait, Storyboard or a Wall Gallery look best? How about black and white or colour? These are all decisions that I will help you with.
Please note : Any discounts (i.e. “all portraits are 20% off”) must be redeemed at your Viewing & Ordering appointment. You are not eligible for these discounts after this deadline, no exceptions.
Please allow up to 6 weeks for your finished portraits to be ready and up to 8 weeks for custom designs, framing and retouching.
Make Up/Hair - I highly recommend the services of a Professional Make Up Artist/Hair Stylist for all sessions. A Make Up artist will add the finishing touches by enhancing your natural beauty and create the look you are after. It is $75 for Make Up and $50 for hair and you pay the Make Up Artist directly in cash. If you prefer to do your own Make Up/Hair, please bring your make up case with you for touch ups. I also recommend that nails be finished as they are often seen in a portrait. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Your
comfort level and privacy are very important to me.
We only go as far as you want to go with no pressure.
The people that appear on my website or in my portfolio
books have given me permission to display their images.
They are not models, but real people and clients, like
you.
