FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you're wondering before your first Ishtar's Image Experience.
What is boudoir photography?
Boudoir photography is an intimate, artistic style of portraiture typically shot in lingerie or minimal clothing, focused on celebrating the subject's confidence, sensuality, and self-acceptance in a private, controlled setting. Ishtar's Image extends this same concept to couples and groups.
Is boudoir photography only for certain body types?
No. Ishtar's Image welcomes clients of every body type, size, gender, and experience level. Every session is designed around the individual, not a one-size-fits-all template.
How much does a session cost?
The Individuals Experience is $5,000 all-inclusive. The Couples Experience is $10,000 all-inclusive. The Group Experience begins at $15,000 for three participants and increases by $5,000 for each additional participant. All include hair and makeup, model coaching, a behind-the-scenes documentary film, and a Treasure Box of keepsakes, with no hidden fees.
What's included in the Treasure Box?
A luxury photo album, a matching keepsake box, a USB drive with your full digital gallery and behind-the-scenes film, and a set of polaroid prints.
Does Ishtar's Image offer boudoir videography?
Yes. Every Individuals, Couples, and Group Experience includes professional boudoir videography: a behind-the-scenes documentary-style boudoir video capturing the laughter, vulnerability, and transformation of your session, delivered on your keepsake USB drive.
Who sees my photos?
Your images are private by default and are never shared, published, or added to the portfolio without your explicit consent.
What should I wear or bring to my session?
Bring whatever makes you feel most like yourself: lingerie, a favorite oversized shirt, jewelry, or nothing prepared at all. Hair and makeup are handled on-site, and the team will help style each look during the session.
Can couples book a session together?
Yes. The Couples Experience is designed specifically for two people celebrating their connection, trust, and intimacy together, with the same hair, makeup, coaching, and Treasure Box inclusions as the Individuals Experience.
Are you swingers and poly friendly?
Yes. Ishtar's Image proudly welcomes swingers, polyamorous partnerships, and other consensual relationship dynamics without judgment. Your dynamic is honored exactly as it is, with no assumptions made and no need to explain or justify who you are to one another. Discretion and confidentiality are required and enforced for every Group Experience.
How long does it take to receive my photos?
Your fully edited digital gallery, behind-the-scenes film, and Treasure Box are delivered after your session while editing is completed. Exact turnaround is confirmed at booking.
Where are sessions held?
Ishtar's Image serves clients throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, with sessions held in a private studio setting.
