Before You Book

Bridal boudoir questions

How far before the wedding should I book?

We recommend allowing enough time for your photoshoot, private viewing, editing and any printed products to be prepared. Booking several weeks or months before the wedding gives you the most flexibility.

Can my bridesmaids come to the viewing?

Yes. Your private cinema viewing can become part of the bridal experience, with your bridesmaids helping you choose the images and plan how the Polaroids will be revealed on the wedding day.

Do I need to know how to pose?

No. Your photographer guides every pose, angle and expression, using flattering lighting and styling throughout the shoot.

Do I need to bring bridal lingerie?

You can bring bridal lingerie, a veil, garter, partner’s shirt, wedding shoes or anything meaningful to your relationship. We recommend bringing several options so we can style the session around you.

Can I buy more photographs after the session?

Yes. À la carte and Essentials clients can add more photographs, albums and products at the viewing if they fall in love with more. The Essentials package itself must be booked before the photoshoot.

Where is the studio?

Curves Studios is based at 1 Craven Court, Altrincham, Manchester WA14 5DY.
