Frequently Asked Questions

  • HELL YES! No modeling experience is EVER necessary here.

    We guide you through each pose, ensuring you feel comfortable and authentic. We will pose you from your nose to your toes, and everything in between. There is always room for you to move, wiggle, and fall into movement that feels like you.

  • Nervous? This is not only normal, it’s perfect. That means you’re stepping into something bold and exciting. Almost everyone feels this way at first, but that’s why we’re here! We guide you, pose you, hype you up, and make sure you feel not only comfortable, but unstoppable. By the time we’re done, you’ll wonder why you ever doubted yourself.

  • Sure can! Whether you need to be hyped up, moral support, or someone to sip champagne with you behind the scenes, your person is just as welcome as you are here. Just be sure it’s someone who lifts you up and helps you feel your best. This is your moment, and the energy in the room should match that.

  • Sure do! Whether it’s spicy and intimate, soft and romantic, or bold and artistic, let’s create something that reflects your connection. Love and partnership are powerful things, so, let’s capture it in a way that feels true to you.

  • Never!

    Your safety, comfort, and privacy will forever remain our top priority.

    Here, you will always have full control over whether you want your images kept private, shared anonymously, or proudly featured in our portfolio.

  • It can be! Professional make-up and hair artistry are included with the $499 booking fee. Alternatively, you may select to down your own with the $350 booking fee.

    If you are getting hair and makeup done in the studio, please arrive with your hair washed and dried the night before so it's clean but has texture to it. Come with your face moisturized and clean with no makeup for a blank canvas for our artist.

  • To ensure you get the perfect date for your session, we recommend booking at least 2 months in advance.

    If you have a specific date in mind for a special occasion, we recommend booking at least 6 months in advance. (If you want your shoot on your actual birthday, don’t wait! Dates go fast!)

    If you're planning to gift your images or products to a special someone, please book your session at least 2 months before you need the final artwork in hand. This gives us time for your session, editing, image reveal, and product delivery.

    A Special Note for the Brides: We highly recommend scheduling your session 3–4 months before your wedding. This timing is ideal: most of the big decisions are made, and you’re not yet knee-deep in last-minute prep. It’s the perfect window to pause, pamper yourself, and celebrate everything that brought you to this moment.

  • Great question! Upon booking, you will receive a Session Guide filled with tips on wardrobe, self-care, skincare, and getting in the right mindset for your upcoming shoot.

    The best thing you can do, though? Come as you are, be open to the experience, and trust the process.

  • After your session, we have (that same day or a later day) your private viewing and ordering appointment, where you will see your images for the first time. This is the best part! The moment you get to witness yourself through a whole new lens. I will help you choose how you want to display your images, whether that’s digitally, or in an album, glass folio, or stunning wall art.

  • Images are delivered within 3 business days after your order is paid in full.

    If you've opted for a payment plan, you will receive your images or artwork once your payment is complete.

    Artwork delivery varies but typically takes 4-6 weeks to arrive.

  • Worried about making decisions the same day? Don’t be!

    While it may sound overwhelming, most are pleasantly surprised at how easy, supportive, and stress-free the ordering process really is! We’ve designed the entire process to guide you confidently through selecting your image collection and choosing your artwork.

    Still unsure? No problem. If you get home and realize you need that extra canvas on your wall, we can absolutely add it on later. Every image you purchase is safely stored on file and can be transformed into the artwork of your dreams, at any time.

    Best of all? We use powerful visual design tools that show you exactly what your album layouts and wall art will look like. We can even use a photo of your actual wall to mock up your display. (I know!)

    No guesswork. No pressure. Just beautiful, custom artwork that you can’t help but fall in love with over and over again.

  • Sessions are reserved with a session fee, which varies depending on the type of session you are looking for.

    After your session, you can choose exactly which images you love and how you want to showcase them. Artwork options start at $1,495, and a full list of options is available on the Investment page.

  • Yes! We offer interest-free payment plans for up to 4 months. These plans are secured with a card on file that is charged automatically on the invoice's due date. Please see further information on the Investment page.

  • Due to the limited availability of our studio, reschedule requests made more than 21 days before your session can be accommodated once free of charge. Within 21 days of your scheduled session, a change fee of $150 applies to any reschedule requests. All client cancellations result in the forfeiture of your session fee.

  • Yes! A Hannah Mac Studios session is one of the most unforgettable gifts you can give, whether for a partner, a best friend, or a gift for your future self.

  • Boudoir doesn't necessarily mean lingerie! But, it can!

    The most confident images come from what you feel best in. Once your session is booked, you'll receive a comprehensive wardrobe guide outlining different aesthetics, styles, and outfit options, complete with my favorite places to shop and a session preparation guide.

    We recommend 2-5 outfits, with at least 2 of your own to ensure you feel your most confident. While our client closet offers a wide selection of styles, bringing pieces you explore our collection and mix in additional looks to create a variety that truly reflects you.

    Feeling like you’re overpacking? That’s totally okay! You’d be surprised how many roll in laughing with a whole suitcase. But, trust me, it’s so much better to have options than to arrive and wish you’d brought that one perfect piece. Bring it all! We’ll help you sort through it together!

  • Boudoir sessions take place in our stunning, spacious, warm and naturally-lit downtown loft studio: a dreamy, private and intimate space designed to set the perfect tone for your images. But, don’t take our word for it; come and check it out!

  • Forget the rules. Forget what you’ve been told you should wear. This isn’t about dressing for a role: it’s about showing up as you.

    Wear what makes you feel powerful, effortless, untamed, fully seen. Whether that’s a tailored suit, your favorite worn-in denim, something bold and statement-making, or something stripped down and raw; your wardrobe should reflect who you are when you feel your most unstoppable.

    Before your session, we’ll talk through your style, your energy, your essence. Not to create a look that fits into a box, but to uncover what feels most real, most comfortable, most undeniably you. Because Unbranded isn’t about playing a part. It’s about owning your presence, claiming your space, and showing the world exactly who you were meant to be, and your outfits will reflect that.

  • The location is all about you: your energy, your essence, your story. Whether it’s in our studio, a sunlit loft, your creative space, or somewhere that just feels right, we’ll choose a setting that captures who you are, unfiltered. But, truthfully? Our studio is where the magic really happens. Our studio is thoughtfully designed to capture your story with total ease. The lighting is perfect, distractions fade, and all the focus is on you. Wherever we shoot, it’s not about the backdrop; it’s about you boldly taking up space within it.

  • YES! Your session is about capturing you: the things you love, the energy you bring, the details that make you unmistakably you. If that means bringing your dog, your favorite vinyl, your paint-stained jacket, or the coffee mug that fuels your mornings: bring it with you and bring it on! These aren’t just props; they’re pieces of your story. Let’s make sure they have a place in your images, just like they do in your life.
