CONNECT WITH ME

"Keara is a one-woman revolution in the west Michigan photography scene. There is literally no one out here doing what she does. She focuses on those of us who haven't felt represented by other artists' work and it's so needed!"

STEP 1: SAY HELLO

You have to make the first move by filling out an inquiry form 😏 from there, we’ll chat about your vision and the kind of vibe you’re hoping to convey in your images. If it’s a “fuck yes” for both of us, you’ll choose your date and pay your retainer to make it official! We’ll stay in touch as your session approaches that way you feel fully supported. You’ll also receive resources from me, so you know exactly what to expect and can show up confidently to the studio. My messages are always open if any questions pop up along the way.

STEP 2: THE BIG DAY

We'll meet at the studio location listed on your confirmation email for your session. Expect lots of hype (I can be a bit "extra" lol), deep care, gentle direction and a sprinkle of magic while you're in the studio with me. You'll even leave with a few Polaroids afterwards as a reminder of how unforgettable the energy was during your experience ✨

STEP 3: HAPPY MAIL

About 3 weeks later, you’ll receive a private link to a fully edited gallery. This is where you get to review everything and make final selections. We’ll also go over any product details or upgrades if you're wanting extra goodies 😉

Ps. if you absolutely loved your photography experience with Head to Curve (which I hope you do), this is also the perfect time to leave a Google review! Seeing kind words about your time with me not only means the world, but also helps others find their way to Head to Curve.

COMMON QUESTIONS:

Will you share my images online?

Only if you say yes. You’ll have the option to choose full release, selective sharing, or private only. You can change your mind at any time, for any reason. Your boundaries are respected always.

Is boudoir just for women?

Hell no. If you’ve got a body, you’re welcome here. Head to Curve proudly holds space for all genders, identities, and expressions. You’ll see that reflected across the website, portfolio, and community I’ve built.

Do you photograph couples/romantic partners?

Absolutely! Couples boudoir sessions at Head to Curve are approached through an artistic, connection-centered lens. Together, we will focus on the dynamic between you and your partner(s) through posing and direction that emphasizes interaction and shared intimacy. While these sessions can absolutely feel sensual and deeply personal, they're guided with consent, intention and care throughout.

PLEASE NOTE: Head to Curve is not the right fit for explicit content creation or erotica-focused photography.

Should I bring my own outfits?

I do recommend bringing at least 2 outfits from home that make you feel good. Since every body (and every preference) is different, bringing your own pieces helps ensure the best fit and gives us options to play with during your session.

Every client will also have access to my Welcome Guide filled with shopping recommendations, outfit inspiration, and tips for choosing pieces that photograph beautifully. And if you want a few extra options, I can pull options from the Curve Closet — it's filled with carefully curated pieces ranging from 6X to Small and is available to every client at no additional cost.

Can I bring someone with me?

I know it sounds comforting, but bringing a friend usually shifts the energy of your session. Boudoir is intimate and vulnerable, and this time is for you. You’re more than welcome to have someone walk you in, but the session itself is solo (and I promise I’ll be the ultimate hype team).

Do you offer hair/makeup services?

Nope, and that’s intentional. While I love a full glam moment, most of my clients want to look like themselves... just a little elevated. You’re welcome to wear as much or as little makeup as you’d like. Want a referral to a trusted artist? I got you.

Will you help me with posing?

Absolutely! I promise you don't need to be a posing expert before walking into the studio. I’ll be guiding you every step of the way. From poses and prompts to candid moments of movement, you'll feel supported, not stiff.

Can you edit parts of my body I'm not confident about?

No, that goes firmly against my beliefs. This experience is about seeing yourself without distortion. That means I won't slim, shrink, or smooth you into someone you’re not. I’ll remove any random blemishes or temporary things like that random bruise on your leg, but that’s it. You are not the problem and I will never treat you like one.
