Size 2 or size 22, the job is the same: light, angle, and someone telling you exactly where your hands go.
Plus size boudoir with Felipe Restrepo is the same session as any other — 90 minutes, hair and makeup, every pose directed — with posing built around curves instead of hiding them. At your home or a hotel suite in Palm Beach County and Miami, from $450.
I. — Method
What changes, what doesn't
01
Angles
Camera slightly above, chin forward, weight on the back leg. You will hear it a hundred times.
02
Light
Big, soft light wraps curves; hard light carves them. We use both, on purpose.
03
Wardrobe
Bodysuits, a man’s shirt, lace with structure. Pieces that fit now. The styling guide walks you through it.
04
Retouching
Skin, flyaways, marks from a strap. The shape of your body stays yours.

Many clients come to us for boudoir for confidence, not for anyone else, and we wrote about how that works in practice.

IV. — Before you book
5 questions.
Will you slim me in Photoshop?
No. Retouching is natural: skin, flyaways, marks from clothing. The shape and size of your body are not changed, as the Session Agreement says.
I have never posed. Is that a problem?
No. Every pose is directed, one small movement at a time, and you see the camera early so you know how it looks.
What should I wear?
Three looks: lingerie you already like, something oversized, one piece with texture — lace, silk, a blazer. The styling guide arrives after you book.
How much does a boudoir session cost?
The session is $450: 90 minutes, hair and makeup, wardrobe styling, a same-day reveal and 5 retouched images. Collections are Esencia $895, Musa $1,695 and Icono $2,795, payable in 3 installments.
Who sees my photos?
You. Private, password-protected gallery. As set out in the Session Agreement you sign after the deposit, selected images may appear in my portfolio, website and social media, never with your full name, contact details or location.
