    I did mine in February with Raw and I think I did a total of 4 outfit changes.  I didn't bring any photos of what I wanted, mainly because I figured I'd just be spontaneous...but they had some sample albums to look at at the shoot for inspiration. 

    Good luck...and have fun!!

    I brought 3 different outfits and 2 pairs of shoes. I didn't bring any pictures I browsed through his books and just went with what he said. They came out great. I didn't really have my heart set on any poses.

    Hi there
    I was looking into Raw Photo for my wedding in April 2011, but they were booked :(
    They suggested a boudoir or engagment session. 
    Can you tell me how much the boudoir session costs, as I know their wedding packages are around 6K
    thanks

    I paid $550 for the session which also included hair and makeup on site and a coffee table book. They have more expensive and less expensive packages to choose from as well.

    <div>they've gone up.  their cheapest package is $550 now, and that doesn't include a book, just hair & makeup.  i'm almost positive that the one that includes the photo book is $650 now.</div>

    Yowzers! I thought the $550 was expensive! It was definitely worth it though :0)

    thanks so much ladies, I currently have about 5 different ideas so I willjust bring them all and just ask them what they think, good idea.

    Thanks so  much will let you know how it goes :)

    also, regarding booking them I'd suggest doing it asap then you can still probably get 2010 prices!!
    I booked them early for that reason, knowing that things would likely go up.

    Yeah it did go up. I paid 700 all together. And they have a 100$ version of a book or I think a 2-300$ book that's a lot nicer. i got the 100$ its nice i just thought when I booked it it included everything it changed between conversations and last minute had to pay for the book. yikes! but well worth every penny. I should receive mine this week :) and I would definatly pick all sorts of different outfits. I had a bride tank and booty shorts then a babydoll then the lingere and it made for all great pictures!

    i just re-checked the pricing they sent me about 1 month ago.

    $550 is just the shoot, hair & makeup
    $650 includes the cheaper version of an 8x8 book
    $850 is the nice book.

    oh!  and! they recommend 3-5 outfit changes!
