Thinking about booking a boudoir session, but feeling a little overwhelmed by all the options out there? Whether it’s for a special occasion or just to celebrate yourself, boudoir photography is a powerful way to capture your confidence and beauty. With so many choices—from discounted Groupon deals to more intimate mini sessions—it can be tough to know where to start.
Let’s break down the key differences between Groupon boudoir packages and mini sessions, so you can make the best choice for your unique needs and budget.
Groupon Boudoir Packages: The Discount Deal
When you see a Groupon for a boudoir session, it can be tempting. The low price tag definitely catches your eye. But before you hit “buy,” it’s important to understand what you’re really getting.
Pros:
- Lower Cost: The biggest selling point of Groupon deals is the price. You’ll often pay a fraction of what you might for a full boudoir session.
- No Long-Term Commitment: Groupon offers a way to try boudoir photography without committing to a full-package deal.
Cons:
- Limited Time & Availability: Groupon sessions typically come with strict time limits. You may be forced to book during off-peak hours or face additional fees for evening or weekend sessions.
- Lack of Personalization: With Groupon boudoir packages, the experience is often more cookie-cutter. You may not get the same level of personalization and guidance that comes with a higher-end boudoir shoot.
- Hidden Fees: While the Groupon deal may look like a bargain, there can be extra charges for things like photo albums, hair and makeup, or even access to digital photos.
Mini Boudoir Sessions: More Personalized, but at a Higher Price
Mini boudoir sessions are an excellent option if you’re looking for a more intimate experience without committing to a full session. These shoots typically last around 30-60 minutes, giving you just enough time to feel relaxed and get some stunning photos.
Pros:
- More Personal Attention: A mini session gives you more one-on-one time with your photographer. This means better direction, more time to work through poses, and the ability to discuss any personal preferences.
- Streamlined Experience: These shorter sessions are less time-consuming, which can be great if you’re nervous about being in front of the camera or don’t have a whole day to dedicate to your photoshoot.
- Higher-Quality Service: Mini sessions are often part of a boutique offering, meaning you’ll likely get more luxurious services. FAB studios will provide a tailored photo shoot that truly reflects your personality.
Cons:
- Higher Cost: While mini sessions are more affordable than a full boudoir shoot, they’re generally more expensive than Groupon deals. You’re paying for quality and experience.
- Limited Photos: Because mini sessions are shorter, you may not get as many photos as you would in a full session. However, you’ll likely get more high-quality shots since you’re receiving more individual attention.
Which One Should You Choose?
When deciding between a Groupon boudoir package and a mini boudoir session, it really comes down to what you’re looking for in your boudoir experience. We have provided both services and majority of clients have opted for our mini sessions!
- Go for a Groupon deal if you’re on a tight budget and just want to dip your toes into the world of boudoir photography with one or two photos. You’ll still get some beautiful photos, but keep in mind that it may not be as customized or polished as other options especially if you are not prepared to upgrade into additional photos.
- Opt for a mini boudoir session if you want a more personalized experience with a photographer who can really focus on your comfort, your vision, and your unique style. This option is great for women who want to feel pampered and empowered without committing to a full-length shoot. We offer a few different mini sessions that are budget friendly and they all include digital photos!
Choosing between Groupon boudoir packages and mini boudoir sessions doesn’t have to be a tough decision. Just take a moment to think about what you want out of your experience—whether it’s affordability, personalization, or something in between. Remember, this is your moment to shine!
