Boudoir Investment

Boudoir isn’t about being perfect, and it definitely isn’t about becoming someone else for the camera. It’s about showing up as you are and giving yourself permission to take up space in your own skin. Every session at Wicked Tales is built around you — your comfort, your story, and the way you want to see yourself.


Some women walk into the studio feeling bold and ready to take on the world. Others arrive a little nervous, wondering if they can actually do this. Both are completely normal. My job is to guide you through the entire experience so you never feel awkward or unsure about what to do. From planning your shoot and choosing outfits, to posing, lighting, and creating a space where you can relax into the moment, I’m there the whole way.


Your investment isn’t just about photographs. It’s about giving yourself the chance to see what everyone else already sees in you — strength, confidence, softness, power, and beauty that often gets drowned out by the noise of everyday life.

Most women who book a boudoir session have never done anything like this before. They’re not models, they’re not used to being in front of a camera, and they often arrive feeling a little nervous about how it will all work. That’s completely normal. Every session at Wicked Tales is fully guided, from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. I’ll walk you through posing, help with outfit choices, and create a space where you can relax and enjoy the experience rather than worrying about how you look.


The goal isn’t perfection. It’s creating images that feel powerful, authentic, and unmistakably you.

Something shifts during a boudoir session. The nerves settle, the laughter comes easier, and you start to see yourself differently. It stops being about the camera and becomes about the moment you’re in. By the end of the shoot most women are surprised by how comfortable they feel and how much fun they’re having.


Then you see the photographs, and suddenly the version of yourself you’ve been doubting is standing right there in front of you. Strong, confident, beautiful — exactly as you are.

The Boudoir Session

 

SESSION FEE — $300

 

Your session fee covers the full Wicked Tales boudoir experience. This includes a fully guided photoshoot where you don’t have to worry about posing, what to do with your hands, or how to look confident in front of the camera. I’ll guide you through every pose, every movement, and every moment so you can relax and enjoy the experience.


Your session also includes access to my client wardrobe (XS–4XL), unlimited outfit changes during your shoot, a private home studio in Rockhampton, and a discreet online gallery where you’ll be able to view and select your favourite images.


Digital images are purchased separately so you can choose the collection that fits you best.

 

 

Digital Image Collections

 

Because sometimes you just want a taste…
and sometimes you realise you deserve the whole damn thing.

 

THE Tease — $250

5 professionally edited images

A tiny, powerful little collection for when you want just a handful of favourites. Perfect if you’re testing the waters, working with a tighter budget, or only need a few images that make you go, holy shit, that’s me.


Villianess— $400

10 professionally edited images

This is your “just one more” collection. Perfect if you’re dipping your toe in or you want a small, curated set of your absolute favourites without committing to the full gallery.


Vixen — $500

20 edited images

A solid, well-rounded collection that gives you variety without overwhelming you. This used to be the go-to — and honestly, it still holds its own.


Siren — $650

30 edited images

This is where most people land… because choosing is hard when you’re obsessed with how you look. Enough images to tell the full story of your session without feeling like you left anything behind.


Femme Fatale — $750

Every edited image from your session No choosing. No cutting things down.

If you fall in love with the whole experience (and you probably will), this is where you say yes to all of it.


Typically 100–500 images.

Yeah… I don’t hold back.

 

 

Elevate Your Experience with Add-Ons

 

Because sometimes extra is the vibe.

Every session is already designed to be a full experience, but if you want to take it further — more time, more looks, more moments to play with — these are here for that.

 

Instax Polaroids

Starting at $15 each

5 for $70 / 10 for $110

A little instant magic you can hold in your hands. Raw, unfiltered, and a completely different kind of keepsake from your session.


35mm Film

1 Roll of film (average of 20 images) for $120

Soft grain, dreamy colour, and that gorgeous little bit of imperfection digital can’t quite fake. 35mm film gives your session a nostalgic, intimate, wildly romantic edge. A little softer, a little moodier, and completely impossible to recreate the same way twice.


Extra Sets — $100 each

Adds 35–45 minutes to your session

Want more variety? More outfits? A completely different vibe? Adding extra sets gives you the space to explore it without rushing.


Expressed Edited — From $150

Get your images soon rather then later!

 

FAQ

I’ve never done boudoir before. Is that okay?

Yes. Most of my clients are first-timers. I’ll guide you through every pose, expression, and tiny detail so you’re never left wondering what to do.


Do I need to lose weight first?

No. Boudoir is for the body you have now. You do not need to change yourself before you deserve beautiful photos.


Will you help me pose?

Absolutely. I pose you from head to toe and adjust everything as we go so you feel supported, not awkward.


What should I wear?

Lingerie, bodysuits, robes, oversized shirts, jeans, sheets, or anything that feels like you. You’ll also have access to my growing client wardrobe.


Do you retouch the photos?

Yes, naturally. I polish the images, soften temporary marks, and keep you looking like yourself.


Do I have to share my photos online?

No. Your images are private unless you give clear permission for them to be shared.


Where are sessions held?

Most sessions are held in my private home studio in Norman Gardens, Rockhampton, with multiple sets available.


How does pricing work?

There is a session fee plus your chosen image package. Images are purchased separately, either when booking or after you view your gallery.


When will I get my gallery?

My usual turnaround is 4–8 weeks. Express editing may be available if you need your images sooner.


Can I bring a friend?

Please ask me first. My studio space is limited, and extra people can sometimes change the energy of the session or make it harder for you to fully relax. If you do bring someone, it needs to be someone you’re genuinely close with. Someone who will support you, hype you up, and make you feel safe, not someone who will make you overthink yourself.
