Montréal Luxury Portrait & Boudoir Photography Studio

We offer the following, personalized and s styled photoshoots: Boudoir, Maternity, Personal Branding, and Beauty & Glamour. We also offer a “come as you are” Authentic Me experience. Please contact us here and we will be glad to discuss other types of photography and your specific needs with you.

The best way to book a consultation or session is to design your shoot here, or simply contact us here. You can also reach us by phone at (514) 781-7755 or e-mail us directly at info@kuriousphoto.com.

Most of the images you see on our website are real clients and many of our clients have never done this before either. Our job is to help you and guide to pose in ways that flatter you and make you look and feel great. All you need to do is come in with a positive attitude and leave the rest to us.

We will discuss all these details extensively during your pre-shoot prep session. We recommend that you bring several different outfits so that we can have a choice of clothing for multiple themes and looks. Also, don't forget your favorite shoes, accessories, and jewelry. We also have a small selection of outfits that we can provide if needed and multiple fabrics and materials that we use creatively for some looks.

All our sessions include complimentary hair styling and makeup. It makes a difference in the final images. Our talented hair & makeup artist will discuss with you the look you’d like to achieve or advise you if you aren’t sure what to ask for. Even if you never wear makeup, we will create a natural look that is camera ready. Hair will be lightly styled only so plan to arrive with clean and dry hair. Remember to plan a night out after your photoshoot because you will look and feel amazing.

We do our best to make you look amazing through proper lighting and posing. We always consult you during the shoot on if and how you would like us to retouch your images. We only retouch as much as needed to enhance and perfect your photos. That includes some color correction, blemish removal, skin smoothing in some areas, and just a few tweaks to make the photos amazing. If you have any special retouching requests, we can certainly accommodate you, but there may be additional charges for major retouching.

We prefer ti work one-on-one with our clients, but we would never stop you from bringing someone with you if you feel it’s more comfortable for you. You may think having someone there for moral support will help, but we have found that when other people are watching, it's harder for you to relax and be present for the shoot. This is a huge factor in creating great images. We wouldn't want that to take away from giving you the most amazing experience and photos possible.

We are located on a picturesque, wooded land in Saint-Lazare, a suburb just west of Montréal. It is approximately 30-45 minutes from anywhere on the island of Montreal.

Our professional studio is adjacent to our home. That gives us the flexibility of using the studio for certain themes while also having access to multiple areas of the house. With hardwood floors and lots of windows for natural light, we can use the space in any way you are comfortable with. If you'd like to shoot at your home or at a location of your choice (hotel, castle, etc.), we would be happy to discuss that option with you.l.

We recommend that a maternity shoot be done between 30-35 weeks into the pregnancy. This is not a hard rule as it can be done before or after that, but we like to avoid the last 4-5 weeks simply due to comfort factors. (Yes! we may work you hard during the photoshoot,)

Generally, a shoot will last between 3 and 4 hours. However, our focus is on making your day unforgettable, so we take our time and work at your pace and take the time we need to make you happy. We also recommend that the shoot be during the day, starting mid to late morning, so we can take advantage of the beautiful natural light for a portion of the shoot.

What you spend is entirely up to you and you only decide after you see the results at the photo reveal session. Our session fee is $650 and that include a $400 credit towards any purchase. Individual images start at $200 and collections start at $2,250 ($1,500 for personal branding and The Authentic Me Experience). Our typical client spends between $2,500 and $4,500 for the entire experience, including the photoshoot session, images, and products like albums, folio boxes, and wall art.

No. The in-person photo reveal and ordering session (2-3 weeks after the photoshoot) is the only occasion to see your photos after the shoot. It is a quick and enjoyable part of the experience that is simply the "icing on the cake". Under certain circumstances and for clients that travel from out of town for their shoot, we may be able to do the reveal and ordering session by Zoom or Teams.

We will not use/post any photos without your written permission. Some of our clients love showing off their photos, some prefer to keep them completely private, and others somewhere in between. We would love to show your photos on our website so others can see what your experience was like. We respect your privacy and your choice. It is entirely up to you.

We accept credit cards (Visa/Mastercard), e-Transfers, and of course, cash.

The session fee is due at the time of booking and is non-refundable, but will be credited for use within 6 months should you have to postpone your session. All sales made during the photo reveal and ordering session are final.
