Bare by Bry Marie - an intimate experience of artistic expression

No matter your reason for being curious about a boudoir session; rest assured, it will end up being the greatest gift to yourself.

Maybe you’re here because you’ve recently hit a milestone and you want to celebrate yourself, or you’re recently engaged and want to gift your fiancé an album, or perhaps it’s an anniversary gift. One way or another, you will find yourself empowered with a new confidence after seeing yourself through my lens. It’s about embracing and celebrating your unique beauty and seeing yourself in a new light. Allow a boudoir experience be a part of your personal journey.

Because it's all about how it makes your feel...

“I'VE HAD TO TAKE SOME TIME PUTTING TOGETHER A TESTIMONIAL, BECAUSE WORDS REALLY CAN'T DESCRIBE HOW I FELT RECEIVING MY PHOTOS FROM BRYANNE. I'VE NEVER FELT MORE CONFIDENT AND BEAUTIFUL IN MY OWN SKIN. THE MINUTE I WALKED INTO HER STUDIO, I FELT COMFORTABLE - SHE HAS MADE SUCH A WARM AND INVITING SPACE. HAVING THIS OPPORTUNITY WITH BRY WAS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM - SHE IS PROFESSIONAL, PERSONABLE AND TALENTED BEYOND MEASURE! IT IS A TRUE GIFT TO BE ABLE TO CAPTURE SOMEONE THE WAY SHE DOES AND SEND THEM OFF WITH SO MUCH MORE THAN A PHOTO GALLERY. I STILL CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT MY PHOTOS. THEY BRING ME SO MUCH PRIDE AND JOY. I ENCOURAGE EVERY WOMAN TO DO A BOUDOIR PHOTOSHOOT AT LEAST ONCE IN THEIR LIFE. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART BRY!"

“MY BOUDOIR SESSION WITH BRYANNE WAS COMFORTABLE, FUN AND EMPOWERING! I WENT INTO THE SHOOT NERVOUS AND UNCERTAIN HOW I WOULD BE ABLE TO POSE WITHOUT LOOKING AWKWARD AND UNSURE. IT WAS A LITTLE OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE, BUT I WAS DRAWN TO HER AMAZING WORK! BRY'S GUIDANCE WAS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED, SHE PROVIDED GREAT INSTRUCTION AND WAS A HUGE CONFIDENCE BOOSTER THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SHOOT. SHE ENABLED ME TO FIND MY PRE-CHILDREN SPARK AGAIN, AND THE PICTURES SHE TOOK GAVE ME THE BOOST I WAS CRAVING!! MY HUSBAND WAS SKEPTICAL WHEN HE KNEW I WAS GOING FOR THIS SESSION, KNOWING MY COMFORT LEVEL WHEN IN LINGERIES, BUT WAS ECSTATIC TO SEE THE PHOTOS BRY WAS ABLE TO GUIDE ME THROUGH!"

“I WAS SO NERVOUS TO TAKE THE LEAP INTO A BOUDOIR SESSION, BUT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY BRYANNE MADE ME FEEL SO COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT. I AM BLOWN AWAY BY THE RESULTS. THIS WAS SOMETHING I'D ALWAYS THOUGHT ABOUT DOING BUT DIDN'T THINK I'D HAVE THE COURAGE AND WASN'T SURE THE RESULTS OF MYSELF WOULD BE AS GOOD AS ALL THE ONES YOU SEE ON INSTAGRAM. I'VE HAD 2 LARGE BABIES AND AM NOT 20 AFTER ALL. BRYANNE PROVED ME WRONG! THE PHOTOS I GOT BACK FROM HER ARE BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED! EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO IT AT LEAST ONCE!”

“I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR MY BIRTHDAY THIS YEAR, SO I BOOKED A BOUDOIR SESSION WITH BRY! BRY WAS TRULY INVESTED IN THE PROCESS FROM START TO FINISH. SHE TOOK THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND MY VISION AND BROUGHT IT TO LIFE. I HAD SO MUCH FUN AT MY SHOOT AND REALLY APPRECIATED HER GUIDANCE WHEN IT CAME TO POSING. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE BEAUTIFUL, AND POWERFUL, THAN I DID THAT DAY. OPENING UP MY GALLERY FOR THE FIRST TIME BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES - AS SOMEONE WHO HAS STRUGGLED WITH BODY IMAGE THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, IT FELT INCREDIBLE TO SEE MYSELF THROUGH A DIFFERENT LENS. BRY, I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR YOUR KINDNESS, PROFESSIONALISM AND TALENT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOOKING A BOUDOIR SHOOT WITH BARE BY BRY MARIE - IT'S THE BEST WAY TO CELEBRATE YOURSELF!”

A LITTLE ABOUT THE PROCESS:

I. GET IN TOUCH.

Woohoo, you’ve taken the first step and reached out with the contact form! From here, I’ll ask if you’re comfortable hopping on the phone for a quick chat so we can connect and you can tell me more about what you’re hoping to get out of your session, and we can chat vibes and set a date while you ask any questions you may have about collections, products, what to wear, etc.

II. THE SESSION.

Leading up to the session, I will send a prep guide and we’ll discuss styling/outfits to make sure everything is just right. You’ve now filled out the questionnaire so I know any sensitivities and favourite assets of yours as well as some of your favourite tunes that make you feel good, and you’ve likely already prepaid for your goal collection with the pre-payment plan but that choice is entirely up to you! Either way, it’s go time. Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes, with early arrival to get you pampered with professional hair and makeup.

III. THE REVEAL.

As much fun as we have at the session, THIS is where the real magic happens! Typically about one week after your session (same day reveal may be available), you’ll come back to the studio to see yourself the way I do! You’ll pick your favourite images to go into your album and once that’s approved, it will be into your hands within a few weeks time. You get to walk into your life with a renewed sense of confidence and start counting down the days until your next session!

INVESTMENT

The session fee is $499+tax with product collections beginning at $600. The average client expense is usually around $1500 for the entire experience.

FAQ

CAN WE KEEP OUR IMAGES PRIVATE?

100% YES. While I love to show off the beautiful works of art that we’ve created together, when you come in for your session, you have 3 options when it comes to model release – full release, partial release (ex: anonymous photos only), or no release.

HOW DO I BOOK A PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION WITH YOU?

Booking a photography session is easy. Simply reach out through the website contact form and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours (weekends excluded). I’ll guide you through the process, discuss expectations, and find a convenient date and time for your session.

CAN WE CHOOSE THE LOCATION FOR OUR PHOTO SHOOT?

Absolutely – this is all part of the process. If you have a place in mind, I’m all ears. Otherwise, let’s discuss your vision and I’ll show you some options to suit (think airbnbs, studios, etc.)

HOW LONG DOES A TYPICAL PHOTO SESSION LAST?

You can expect to be in the studio for about 3 hours, beginning with hair and makeup, followed by a 60-90 minute boudoir session.

Image reveals are typically about one hour and can take place shortly after your session.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE THE FINAL EDITED PHOTOS?

I understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos! My editing process typically takes 1-2 weeks. I prioritize quality and attention to detail to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations and I can’t wait for you to see them during your reveal session, which we will have scheduled before your leave on session day (occasionally may be available same day).

DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?

Sure do! We can discuss your goal collection and set you up with a pre-payment plan leading up to your session. This is a great reason to book a few months in advance and minimize your payments. All totals must be settled before any product is ordered.
