The Ayla Quellhorst Experience
Each of us has faced our own unique challenges. Your challenges have made you the badass you are today. You deserve an experience that showcases how fierce you are.
Forget how others say you should showcase yourself. You get to dictate what makes you happy. Allow us to give you a safe place to show you as you. In whatever way makes you feel like the sexy and sensual Warrior you are.
Based in Austin, TX and in Tacoma, WA every month, the same experience in both cities.
Step 1
Phone Consultation
I know, I know, who talks on the phone these days? But hear me out… Boudoir photography is about more than just photos. It’s an experience. You want to make sure you are working with a studio that is right for you. A quick call allows us to discuss your vision, answer your questions and begin planning a session that is uniquely you.
Step 2
Planning
We don’t book you and forget about you. We are going to help you prepare for every detail of your shoot with emails that answer every question we’ve ever been asked and more! From where to shoot to what to eat the day of your shoot. Even friendly suggestions on what not to do. We got you!
Step 3
Pamper Sessions
You are about to get semi (or entirely) nude, wouldn’t you like to get to know your photography team first? Jessica, a licensed cosmetologist with AQP since 2018, does hair and makeup for every client in Austin and Tacoma. She will spend 1-1.5 hours getting your hair and makeup looking perfect in a way that best represents you. Your session includes three looks, and our client concierge will send you outfit links to make choosing easy. Unique to our studio, your photographer will also spend this time with you. We want to get to know you so we can show your personality in your images. All while you get to know us. Your comfort in our studio is our top priority.
Step 4
The Shoot!
This is it! The thing we have been working towards. But also the thing most clients are nervous about. Let me assure you, you’ve already done the hard part. You got yourself to the studio. Let our team continue to guide you on your journey. We will get on the floor to show you poses. Tell you what to do from your fingers to toes. Expect about an hour of shooting all three looks, and I demonstrate each pose so you can mirror it. We never ask you to “look sexy” at the camera. Who even knows what that means? Between jokes and laughter, let us coach your breathing. Together we will capture images that leave you wondering how they look so sensual when we had so much fun.
Step 5
The Viewing
Nothing ruins your high more than waiting. After your shoot, we will take a roughly 30-minute break for you to enjoy a coffee or a snack. When you come back, your images will be ready to view the same day. We can pour you some champagne or sparkling cider while we look over your pictures. Don’t worry; we will have tissues on hand for those tears of amazement. You’ll select beautiful pieces of art that showcase you. When you leave our studio, you will be blown away by what you accomplished and how stunning you look. All products ship directly to you, and you will spend about 4 hours total at the studio. Don’t worry; it’s normal to wish you had done a shoot with our studio sooner!
