Visual Whispers Photography
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the main photographer a man?
No. I love this question and get it a lot. I am female and you’ll find pictures of me on this website. My background actually started in medicine, specifically radiology. 35 years in medicine gives me a special perspective when it comes to photography of the human body. Over the last 28 years, I have been specific to breasts disease (diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer) in my full-time role, I tease that boobs are my business. With photography, and specifically boudoir, that’s now taken on a whole new meaning. The body is art to me. My clients have often said how much I quickly put them at ease during their photography session. That being said, occasionally I offer Boudoir Shootouts and one-on-one boudoir coaching. Those shootout sessions and coachings are specific situations where the photographers with me may be male. It would be discussed with you way before your session and if you prefer no men, then we would acommodate your request.
How many outfit changes?
Varies by package, but 3-4 outfit changes usually, unless we're doing a mini session.
Do you take credit cards?
Absolutely I do, as well as PayPal credit and Payment plans. One thing to caution regarding payment plans... Any Product ordered will not be delivered until paid in full unless you are using the PayPal Credit.
How long is the actual photoshoot?
Varies by package. On average, the shoot is around 1-1.5 hours.
Will lingerie be provided for the session?
I do have numerous pieces in sizes small to 4x, but also ask that you bring 2-3 outfits that you feel comfortable in and will have to keep after your session. You cannot go wrong with a matching panty and bra set and Wal-Mart and Target have great selections. If you're plus size like me, Target is my go-to!
*** See my ‘where to shop and what to bring’ section. If this is for your wedding, I suggest that you bring your bridal night attire along with your veil, dress and shoes if you have them already. I am adding items daily and now have the Victoria's Secrets style Angel Wings and also 1920's style robes that are just gorgeous.
Will sexy shoes be provided?
Not for wear. I do have a pair of Louis Vuitton’s used for props. Please bring your favorite sexy shoes. Any of my shots can be done barefoot as well. Paint those toes!
Will professional hair and makeup services be available?
Yes, absolutely.
Do you offer VIP post-session viewing? I can't wait weeks to see my pictures!
Yes, this is my preference.
Can I bring friends?
If you’d like to bring a female friend, that’s absolutely fine.
Can my husband, boyfriend or significant other come watch?
This is not recommended. In order for clients to relax and have a special experience, it should be private and all about them and their relationship to the camera. You will enjoy the moment more and will be more at ease if it’s all about you.
Where does the session take place?
The session will take place in my home studio in Frisco, or a studio location that I lease out.
Do I get a copy of all the photographs taken?
You may purchase as many images as you like and the corresponding digital file comes with any prints purchased. I have photo collections with pricing and payment options to fit any budget. I also offer a digital only package.
Will props be available or should I bring my own?
I do have props such as long pearls, masks, wine glasses, top hats, wife-beater t-shirts, fur wraps, rhinestone chokers, bracelets, etc. However, something really personal to your life, your man, your relationship makes the shots that much more special. I am also offering the Luxury Angel Wings in pink and white! 1920's robes in Black and Pink have just arrived as well!

Will I get to see my pictures the same day?
In most instances, I try to offer same day viewing and ordering.
Is there an online gallery option?
For boudoir photography, I prefer to do VIP viewing. If time is an issue for either of us, I will do a gallery of low resolution water-marked images.
Can I do nude/implied shots?
Absolutely. Whatever you are comfortable with.
Do you offer the wet look/shower scene shot that I’ve noticed on social media?
Absolutely. I love this shot and you’ll be shocked at how it’s actually done. It’s one of our fav’s. You do not get wet!
Will there be more than one photographer there?
Not usually and you would know ahead of time. You would have to grant permission. Making my clients comfortable and respecting their privacy is my focus. I do work with male makeup and hair artists from time to time. They are not present during your actual photoshoot. They may be in my studio prepping another client, but will not be watching or observing you at any time.
Do you offer milk bath or bath type photos?
I do. These need to be requested at the time of booking to allow for fresh floral props, etc.
Do you offer maternity boudoir?
Yes, I do. Maternity and milkbath combined is stunning imagery.
Do you offer couples boudoir?
Yes, I do.
Do you allow pets?
If you insist on having pets, let’s do the session at your place or a place you know well, where your pet is more comfortable.
Will you take my photos on a favorite car or motorcycle?
Yes, I can. This is a detailed shoot and can be done as part of a special package that we can put together.
