An alternative to boudoir photography – Revealed Undone

Revealed Undone – Stripped down, natural, for this moment…

 

We’re ready to share our big secret..introducing Undone Sessions

Over the last year, we’ve been quietly creating a series of images to represent a new style of work. It’s been hard keeping this work hidden, but we’re finally ready to announce Revealed Undone—an alternative to the traditional boudoir.

 

What IS an undone Session?

Beginning at sunrise or sunset, we’ll set out for a secluded location in nature. This is about the moment and your expression, so wear something simple, something that moves with you. We’ll give you a little direction, like a yoga or dance instructor, but nothing overly intrusive.

The Details:

Sessions will last around 90 minutes, give or take. Afterward, we’ll choose between 25 and 35 images that we feel best to tell the story of your experience. They’ll be web resolution and delivered to you electronically. These files are complimentary. We feel this type of work looks best as fine art prints or an unbound album, which you can purchase after you’ve seen your photos.

 

Undone vs. Boudoir:

Why offer this sort of session in addition to our boudoir services? There are a number of reasons—our personal love of taking pictures outside (the light, the natural beauty); we’re also suckers for the way hair and fabric move in the wind. But beyond those reasons, this is a response to something deeper.

In all we do we want to provide a safe space for women to connect with and express themselves. While boudoir is a great way to do that, this undone session take it one step further. In shifting the focus away from hair and makeup, away from lingerie, and away from the recipient of the images, the experience becomes even more personal and intimate. It can be meditative, playful, and releasing. This is for you. The whole you, free of the public gaze, of judgment, of pressure.

SPECIAL PRICING THROUGH THE END OF JUNE.

For a limited time, we’re offering Undone sessions for $499 (regular $599) and a portion of the profits from all Undone sessions will be donated to End the Backlog.

Slots are limited for 2018 due to the Chicago climate. Contact us today to secure your session while the weather allows.

Undone Lake Michigan Photoshoot

We’ve known Tanya for some time now. She’s one our makeup artists at the studio and the warmest and most loving people you will ever meet. When we started shooting Undone sessions, we knew we work with Tanya. We also knew it wouldn’t be difficult, because she is so supportive of not just us, but of all women getting in touch with nature and themselves.

We’re so excited to share her images from her session.

Sunset Undone Session

Undone Sunset Photoshoot

When Ms B, spur of the moment decided to come with us to Montrose Harbor in Chicago for an Undone session at sunset, we were not prepared for all of the magic that was about to happen.

She felt unburdened and open. We had huge bursts of sunlight alongside spotty showers, which, aside from having to keep our cameras safe, might have been the most magical. Ms B leaned into the rain and danced (safely) along the rocks barefoot.

Sunrise Undone Session

Female Outdoor Photoshoot

Sunrise at the dunes in Michigan, along the lake, Ms L was able to let go and free herself a little bit more than her everyday life. It’s truly such a joy to be able to capture these moments as photographers, and give our clients a chance to come undone and see themselves this way.

Our only wish would be that it was warm enough all year long to shoot along the lake.
