These ain't ya momma's
Glamour Shots.

Let’s get one thing (crystal) clear:

But in case you need proof...

That's my mom, my sister,
and yea, that's me circa 1995.

I'm on the right and

I was kind of a big deal.

Styles may have changed but one thing hasn’t; we exist in a world where we feel unseen in our everyday lives. You don’t need an excuse to BOOK THE SHOOT or a supportive partner to share the images with. Do this for YOU! Document who you are right NOW before you wake up as the next leveled up version of yourself.

 Here's how it works...

Flirting with the photo shoot.

You’ll schedule an exploratory phone consult with photographer Elise Kutt, where you’ll talk about your motivation for a photo-shoot, and she’ll explain the process and session options, so you can focus on daydreaming about all the possibilities.

Let’s date.

Once we set your date, it’s time for all things session design—the style you’re after, the wardrobe you can’t stop thinking about, any props you want to bring in, and total MAIN-CHARACTER-ENERGY.

Glam-packed.

If hair and makeup are included in your selected session, you’ll arrive with clean hair, and a fresh face, ready to spend an hour and a half in the chair with our stylist. This time is intentionally designed to help you acclimate to the team and space so you’re more relaxed and a little less nervous before it’s lights, camera, attraction!

Pout, pucker and pose.

Over the course of your session you’ll receive expert pose and expression coaching as you swap between outfits and sets. This is where the Mod Bettie experience truly sets itself apart, Elise’s enthusiasm and years of experience behind the camera is unmatched!

The Reveal!

After the shoot we’ll schedule your virtual reveal and ordering appointment where you’ll pick the images included in your session from your 40+ best images. (You’ll also have the opportunity to preview and purchase any additional images or products.)

It’s not just a photo shoot. Or putting on some cute clothes and getting your hair done

(although those are pretty
awesome things on their own).

The confidence you gain
will last a life time.

The memories of how you felt will never fade. And the look on your loved ones faces when you share the photos is one you’ll remember forever. This is about finding the beauty deep inside you and bringing it to the surface. A reminder to #ExistInPhotos.

Design your dream portrait experience.

We know that simple is sexy, which is why we offer three Luxury Fine Art Portrait Session packages that you can upgrade to your heart’s (and à la carte’s) content after your session. Complete the form below and you’ll automatically receive an email with rates and a link to schedule a virtual pre-shoot design consultation.

Frequently Asked QUESTIONS

  • A: Inquire above! We will hop and a phone consultation to chat all things photoshoot! We will likely get a date on the calendar for your shoot at the time of our phone consultation as well. Our calendar fills up quickly, so we highly recommend that you don’t wait to schedule with us (even if it’s months in advance). If you do wait to schedule, we’ll be in touch with periodic reminders that contain the link to book your session.

  • A: We understand that sometimes life happens, and it’s important to us that you’re able to feel your best self on the day of your session. That said, we ask that you give us 2-3 weeks notice in the event of a reschedule, one time only. We are able to make an exception to the 2-3 weeks notice in the event of illness, emergency, or an act of God herself.

    For our full policies on rescheduling/cancellations, you can always refer back to the contract that you will receive after the purchase of your session. Please note that we reserve the right to deny reschedule requests within the bounds of this contract.

  • A: We shoot Thursdays & Fridays and offer appointments at 10:00am and 1pm. If your heart is set on shooting with us on a Saturday, there is the option to add this onto your session for an additional fee.

  • A: Not unless you want them to be! We respect the fact that it takes a lot of guts to put yourself out there and for some folks just being behind the camera is intimidating enough. This is a very intimate experience and we will do whatever it takes to make you feel confident and comfortable. Our hope is that you will receive your retouched images and feel so empowered and sexy that you can't help but show everyone you know!

  • It sure does! We will schedule a wardrobe consultation 4-6 weeks before your session to nail down what you will wear!

  • A: Please feel welcome to bring a friend as a cheerleader! Or, maybe you mean you want to shoot with a friend? In that case, we’ll chat about how that works during your phone consultation!

  • A: For sanitary reasons, we do not carry lingerie in our studio wardrobe. But if you plan to shoot boudoir, we’ve still got you covered! Our sister business Naughty Bettie carries inclusive sizes and styles of lingerie for all bodies.

    *Bonus: Your session comes with a credit to spend in the boutique!

  • A: After choosing your favorites, you can expect your final, retouched digital gallery 2-3 weeks after your session! YAY!

    If you ordered an album, prints, or a magazine, you can expect physical products to be ready 4-6 weeks after you’ve approved the layout unless otherwise noted.

    Please note that delivery of your final gallery will be held if you have an unpaid balance on any additional images you might purchase.
