On the day
The experience
You relax; I do the work. When you arrive we put on your favorite music, get you a drink and glam you up from head to toe. Then I walk you through every pose and expression. Hair and makeup take 45 minutes to an hour, and the shoot itself an hour to an hour and a half. Pricing is by outfit, not by the clock, so you are never rushed. My clients range from their early 20s to their 80s, from very petite to very plus.

My first time doing a photo shoot and it was so much more than I expected. My makeup was so perfect and I was made to feel like a queen. Christina really helped me relax and enjoy the moment.

The studio was warm, inviting, and empowering. The make up artist was incredible. She made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire shoot.
Abby F.
First time ever doing this and I was beyond nervous. She made the process so easy and guided me through everything.

Your photographer
Hi, I am Christina
I am the owner and photographer at Alias Josie, a private studio in downtown Walnut Creek. I guide every pose myself, so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. Most of my clients arrive nervous. That is normal, and it is my job to fix it.

Questions
How much does a boudoir photoshoot cost in the Bay Area?
At Alias Josie, boudoir collections start at $955, which includes hair and makeup, one look with full wardrobe access and 5 digital files. Larger collections are $1,475 and $1,864, and no-interest payment plans are available.
Do I need to know how to pose for boudoir photos?
No. I guide you through every pose. The women on this site are real clients who trusted me to help them create these images, and I will do the same for you.
Will my boudoir photos be shared online?
Never without your permission. If you are open to sharing, you choose exactly which images; there is no requirement to share any.
Do you retouch the photos?
Yes. Basic retouching is included: blemishes, stretch marks, cellulite and bruises. I do not do heavy body reshaping; flattering posing does that work.
What should I bring to a boudoir session?
At minimum a black and a white bra and underwear set. Three or four outfits you love are ideal, and the studio wardrobe is yours to borrow.
