FAQs
Is the session private?
Yes the session will be private. The focus of your shoot is entirely on you. Most of the time, it will be just you and me in my studio. Occasionally a female assistant may join us but that’s it.
Do you share my images?
The decision to share images is entirely up to you. Nothing is shared without your permission. You can decide if you want your images shared and approve which ones I can use. I give you options to decide.
There is absolutely no obligation to give permission to share images in order to book a session.
I'm not too comfortable with my body right now; will a boudoir shoot still be flattering for me?
Absolutely! At our studio, we believe beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, and we’re committed to helping every woman feel confident and radiant. We are a size-inclusive studio, with a client closet that offers beautiful lingerie in sizes ranging from XS to 5XL. Our expert posing techniques are tailored to suit your unique body type, ensuring you look and feel like the bombshell you truly are. We’re here to celebrate your beauty exactly as you are and create a fun, empowering experience that leaves you feeling gorgeous.
Your shoot is a fully guided shoot, which means I will be there to demonstrate all poses beforehand and when it's your turn I will help you pose everything from your body, hands, feet and even coach you through those facial expressions to get those sensual, sexy expressions.

Airbrush makeup is included as part of your boudoir experience. Hair can be added at an additional cost.

Standard retouching including skin smoothing, removal of under eye bags and bulges produced by twisting into poses will be done before you see the images at your reveal / ordering appointment.
Do I bring my own clothing for the shoot?
We shoot 3 outfits per session and that can be any combination of stuff you bring and pieces we have in the boudoir client wardrobe. We have a range of sizes, styles and colours and as part of this luxury experience, I am here for wardrobe consultation and advice. We always discuss your wardrobe choices and pick the looks that are just right for you.
Where is the studio located?
The cozy studio is located in St.Joseph, nestled betweeen the hills of the northern range, just about 3-4 minutes away from Medical Associates Hospital.
Must I wear lingerie?
Wearing lingerie is not a must for your boudoir shoot. We often suggest wardrobe pieces that suit your personality and style.
How long does a shoot take?
Shoots including makeup and hair are 3-4 hours long. We begin shoots at 8:30am sharp.
How long in advance should I book my shoot?
As soon as you've made the decision to do a shoot you should reach out to me so as to give yourself enough time to prepare and to be able to take advantage of the pre-payment plan options.
Are weekend shoots available?
Shoots take place on weekdays only.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash, online bank transfers and credit cards.
Are payment plans available?
Yes, PRE- payment plans are available that take place before the session. A bi-weekly or monthly payment schedule is implemented leading up to your shoot based on the collection you choose. This option is great because you can take your time paying it off and then on the day of your shoot, you don’t have to worry about such a large expense all at once! You can enjoy the experience and you can always upgrade if you end up loving more images!
Client Reflections
Hear from the women who’ve embarked on the transformative journey with us. Their stories of empowerment, confidence and joy are our greatest accolades.
I reached out to Jaime during a time of self-healing and transformation. The pre-shoot consult allowed her to get to know me, and she curated a shoot that captured me in ways I never imagined. On the day of the shoot, my anxieties melted away, and I felt free to be myself—bold and unreserved. When I saw my images, my mind was blown. This experience has been rewarding and life-changing, marking a milestone in my personal growth. I emerged from this as confident, strong, and bold.
From the moment Jaime met me at her gate, she started building a safe space of care and trust. Her warmth, genuineness, and devotion to me as her client kept my doubts and my insecurities at bay.
Her boudoir session is not just posing, it's a slow exploration of self in a most provocative way. It's seeing yourself in a powerful way. It's looking at yourself in a photo and being quietly astounded by what looks back at you...strength, courage, vulnerability, power, femininity.
Every woman can do boudoir, it's not being a model size...it's trusting Jaime to make you feel like the best model version of yourself."
"It wasn't 'am I sexy, can I go there'...but how can I make it comfortable for me...and own it. That's why your session was amazing...it opens up the person in a profoundly raw way!!
Jaime Rampersad, photographer extraordinaire, introduced me to Black and White Boudoir Photo Shoots. I was intrigued, nervous but ever so excited... Jaime made me feel comfortable and relaxed and by the end of the shoot, I walked out feeling as though I had just stepped off an international runway.
Then a few weeks later I had my Photo Shoot Reveal and the only word I could utter was WOW! The images were stunning, elegant, and classy, a true representation of the talented photographer/MUA that is Jaime Rampersad.
All self-doubt dissolved... My confidence has increased tremendously. I know that even on those dark days... I will look back at these pictures and say, Classic, Sexy Bombshell with a huge smile.
Thank you, Jaime, for this experience and wonderful memories I will treasure for the rest of my life.
The term ‘Boudoir’ threw me completely out of my comfort zone but I am so happy that I did not let that deter me from this experience. Jaime is an amazingly talented make-up artist and photographer and was professional from start to finish.
Prior to the shoot day, she provided the perfect tips on clothing and prep required and explained the concept that she wanted to achieve. It was never about the ‘lack’ of clothing but showing how simple outfits can make you look fabulous.
With the support of my husband, kids, and of course, positive encouragement from Jaime, I took that leap of faith and could not be happier with the results! The day of the actual shoot, Jaime and her assistant made the entire process smooth and effortless. There was much more laughter and fun than I expected it to be, and I left that evening feeling so empowered and confident in myself.
The final photos were incredible! Hats off to Jaime and her team for an amazing experience towards a more body positive me.
