Having the Client Commit
Since a boudoir session may be a nerve-wracking experience for some women, there is the potential for a client to change her mind. She may have been looking forward to the session when she booked it last month, but now that the time is here, she may have second thoughts.

To help create a feeling of comfort for her clients, Leanne Reis of Mystique Studio in Camarillo, Calif., encourages them to bring a friend to the session. Reis points out that this may not be the norm for other boudoir photographers, but she sees a benefit in having a familiar face present for the client. "I feel that one more woman in there—one more set of eyes and hands—can help us and our clients get ready," she explains. And since you may not know your client very well, it can be helpful to have someone there with whom she is comfortable. Another benefit? Reis usually sees the friend come back for her own boudoir session!

Another business practice that Reis utilizes to keep clients committed is requesting a small retainer fee to secure a client's studio time. If a client has already spent money towards the boudoir session, they are less likely to cancel last minute due to nerves.
