At Aliza Schlabach Photography, your boudoir session is fully guided from start to finish. You do not need to know how to pose. You do not need to feel “ready.” You do not need to arrive feeling confident.

That is what I am here for.

With detailed posing direction, flattering lighting, beautiful studio sets, access to the client wardrobe, and careful retouching, your session is designed to feel relaxed, private, empowering, and genuinely fun.

Choose between two boudoir experiences:

Petite Boudoir ($900) — a simplified, beautifully curated session for clients who want a shorter experience with a finished set of favorite images.

Luxe Boudoir ($1600 - $6000+) — my signature full boudoir experience, designed for clients who want more time, more variety, more images, and the option to create a handcrafted album or custom artwork. Most Luxe Boudoir clients invest between $2,800 and $6,000, depending on the image collection, album, and artwork they choose.

Petite Boudoir

A beautifully curated boudoir session - $900

Petite Boudoir is perfect if you want a shorter, simpler version of the boudoir experience without giving up the most important parts: beautiful posing, gorgeous lighting, flattering images, and a private reveal immediately after your session.

This is a wonderful option if you want to celebrate yourself, mark a milestone, create a meaningful gift, or experience boudoir for the first time in a way that feels easy and approachable.

Petite Boudoir includes:

• 15 minute pre-session consultation over Zoom

• 30-60 minute photoshoot

• Your choice of 2 sets

• 2 outfits (one per set) 

• Client Wardrobe access (Petite Boudoir clients may try on up to 8 outfits from the client wardrobe)

• Same day reveal and ordering session directly following photoshoot

• Your choice of 5 fully retouched digital images

Optional add ons:

• Professional makeup with lashes ($125)

• Hair styling ($115)

• Add a 3rd set, 3rd outfit, and get 2 more digital images ($300)

• Little black book ($150)
  A 5x5” album with a basic black cover and press-printed images; see a sample at the studio.

• Additional digitals

  • 1 for $150

  • 3 for $425

  • 5 for $600

  • 10 for $1100

• Matching gift prints ($25-$40)

• Wall art ($150 - $5,000)

• Retro viewfinder ($325)

Petite Boudoir is intentionally simple. If you already know you want lots of variety, a larger gallery, multiple looks, a luxury album, or the full studio experience, Luxe Boudoir will likely be the better fit.

Luxe Boudoir

The signature Aliza Schlabach boudoir experience - $1600 -$6000+

Luxe Boudoir is the full, unhurried, deeply personalized version of the experience.

This session gives us time to explore more of who you are: soft, bold, romantic, playful, elegant, powerful, vulnerable, dramatic, classic, sensual, or any combination of the above.

Instead of rushing through two looks, we create a full gallery with range — different outfits, different moods, different sets, and different sides of you.

Luxe Boudoir is ideal if you want:

• The most variety in your final gallery

• A slower, more relaxed shoot day

• Access to all environmental sets

• Multiple outfit changes

• Luxury album options

• Wall art, gift pieces, or a complete keepsake collection

• A more transformational experience from planning through final products

Luxe Boudoir investment

The Luxe Boudoir retainer is $295 and reserves your date.

Image collections begin at $1,305, and most Luxe clients choose collections between $2,500 and $5,700+ after seeing their images.

You do not need to decide on your final collection before your session. You may choose after your reveal, when you have seen your finished images and know what you love.

If you already know you want a larger image collection, you may pre-pay for a collection before your session and receive additional bonus sets.

Up to 11 studio sets

Your Luxe Boudoir session can last anywhere from 2 to 4 hours depending on how many outfits, sets, and looks we create.

A Luxe session includes all 8 environmental sets plus 1–3 bonus sets.

• 1 bonus set is included with your retainer

• 2 bonus sets are included when you pre-pay for a 20-image collection

• 3 bonus sets are included when you pre-pay for a 30+ image collection

Some clients use every available set. Others prefer a more edited experience with fewer looks and more time in each one. We will plan the session around what feels right for you.

Wardrobe

You may wear up to one outfit per set, which means anywhere from 3 to 11 outfits depending on how much variety you want.

There is absolutely no pressure to use that many. Many clients choose 3–5 favorite looks and keep the session focused.

You may bring your own pieces, borrow from my extensive Client Wardrobe, or do a mix of both. Nude or implied nude portraits are also an option if that feels beautiful to you.

Consultation

Your Luxe session includes a 25–45 minute pre-session consultation over Zoom or in person at the studio in Philadelphia.

This is where we talk through:

• How you want the images to feel

• Which sets you are drawn to

• Wardrobe

• Any insecurities or posing concerns

• Whether the images are for you, a partner, a milestone, or all of the above

• Preparation notes

If you come to the studio for your consultation, you may also try on pieces from the Client Wardrobe.

Hair and Makeup

Professional makeup with lashes — $125

Professional hair styling — $100

Luxe Boudoir Collections

You do not have to pre-pay for a collection. Many clients wait until their reveal appointment, when they can see their images and choose what they truly love.

If you pre-pay for a 20-image collection, you receive an extra bonus set. If you pre-pay for a 30+ image collection, you receive two extra bonus sets.

You may also spread the cost of a collection over several installments leading up to your session date.

Pre-paid collections may be upgraded after your reveal. Collections must be paid in full before you leave the studio; post-session payment plans are not available.

Digital Image Collections

10 digital images — $1,305
A small collection of favorite images from your session.

20 digital images — $2,500
A fuller story with more variety, plus an additional bonus set if pre-paid before your session.

30 digital images — $3,400
A beautiful signature digital collection with room for multiple moods, outfits, and sides of you. Includes two additional bonus sets if pre-paid before your session.

Handcrafted Luxury Albums

For many clients, the album is the piece that makes the experience feel complete.

There is something different about holding your images in your hands — not scrolling past them on a screen, but seeing them printed, preserved, and designed as a private little work of art.

These handcrafted albums are made team of women in Canada. Pages are true photographic prints mounted to thick pages, with your choice of beautiful covers including leather, velvet, faux leather, and more. Album samples are available to view at the studio.

Timeline

Please book early. I often book 2–4 months in advance.

After your session, digital images typically take about 2–3 weeks to edit. Prints and Little Black Books usually arrive within a few days after ordering.

Handcrafted Luxury Albums typically take an additional 2–4 weeks to design, produce, and receive.

If you need your images or products by a certain date, please build in a few extra weeks in case of illness, weather, shipping delays, or unexpected rescheduling.

The Process

1. Choose your session date.

   • Plan 2–3 hours for Petite Boudoir.

   • Plan a full day for Luxe Boudoir, especially if you are including hair and makeup.

2. Sign the contract and pay your retainer.

3. Schedule your consultation.

4. Plan your wardrobe, sets, and overall session mood.

5. Come to the studio, breathe, and let me guide you through everything.

Sessions take place Monday through Friday beginning at 10:00AM if you are including hair and makeup, or between 10:00AM and 11:00AM if you arrive hair and makeup ready.

The studio is closed on weekends.

The Sets

A Petite Boudoir session includes your choice of any 2 environmental or standard bonus sets. You may wear 1 outfit per set.

If you cannot choose and want to do it all, Luxe Boudoir is likely the better fit. Luxe includes all 8 environmental sets plus your choice of 1–3 bonus sets, depending on your collection.

Environmental Sets

These are the permanent shooting areas inside my 1,750 square foot Philadelphia studio.

Standard Bonus Sets

Petite Boudoir:
You may choose to include 1 of these as one of your two sets.

Luxe Boudoir:
You may choose 1 bonus set by default, 2 if you pre-pay for a 20 image collection, and 3 if you pre-pay for a 30+ image collection.

Bodyscapes

The light skims across your body, turning you into a piece of art. While you may wear lingerie, it is the skin that reflects the light, so most of my clients choose to go nude for this set. You may do these dry, or add some body oil and I can spray you down with droplets of water for an extra spicy look.

Film Noir

This is a fabulous option for clients wanting to show off an athletic or non-lingerie kind of look. With a sports bra and panty, a pair of jeans, a white button down shirt (yours or your partner’s), an off the shoulder sweater, a sports jersey, or nude, you can make this look all your own.

Red Room

Bubble Bath

Bright White Room

No hiding in the shadows for this set! The light wraps around you from behind, showing all of you off. Every wardrobe color of the rainbow works for this set, as well as white and black.

Stairwell
