Of course. Many women feel the same way. Have no fear, we're with you every step! We know what will help you look and feel relaxed. Flattering poses, and we can take our time making sure we get the best shots of you!

Yes! All images we take will be shown to you in only black and white. Our purpose is to embrace the essence of raw emotion, power in movement, texture, lighting, and contrast in each image while telling your unique story. We feel this will hold the most impact.

The RECHARGE Project is open to women, women-identifying individuals, and non-binary or gender non-conforming people in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond, who feel at home in a space that honors the experiences of women. This project is about celebrating strength, beauty, and personal stories—unapologetically and authentically.

We do! Monda Goette Photography fully retouches every image you purchase, and we will always ask if you have specific requests so that you feel the most confident in the images you buy.

Some clients prefer standard retouching for purchased images (unwanted stray hair, blemish, minor requests) while others may want full master retouching such as softening fine lines, wrinkles, acne, scars, skin smoothing. Retouching also includes minimal background refinement.

I HEAR YOU! When I had my own boudoir session, I didn't want to do these kinds of photos either!

Your session is custom to your desires-whether you want to wear beautiful lingerie or a breathtaking formal dress. If you choose the Jumpstart RECHARGE session experience, you get one outfit of your choice. If you go with the Elite RECHARGE session experience, you can have up to 4 different outfits. We have clients coming in that prefer a great pair of worn jeans and a tank top, sweaters, shorts, & dresses, and they feel equally (if not more) sexy and empowered. 

We have a limited style closet that has some flowy skirt bottoms, some oversized cardigan sweaters (we LOVE the comfy cozy look!), and some simple accessories to put your look together. We'll go over this in detail after you book your session.

Bring plenty of outfits the day of and we can decide the day of, depending on how you're feeling. Especially if we have to narrow your look to just one outfit. This is your photo session, you can choose to style it any way you wish. 

For this project, we have professional makeup as if you choose our Elite RECHARGE session experience on select dates. We are not offering hair as an add on for The Jumpstart RECHARGE sessions due to time.

Our professional make-up artists have several years of experience and makes our clients look incredible. Choose a glam look, or a no-makeup makeup style. The artist will be on-site at the studio, providing an easy transition from prep to session. If you want makeup for your session experience, be sure to book the Elite RECHARGE session experience at $249.

If by chance you want the Elite RECHARGE experience but you don't want pro makeup done by our artist, you can book your experience for $199 instead.

As a reminder, we cannot begin to work on any orders until your balance is paid in full. Thank you for your understanding!

The non-refundable session retainer is due upfront to book and reserve your session on our calendar. Today, the minimum you will pay is $149 for the Jumpstart RECHARGE session, or $249 for the Elite RECHARGE session, plus applicable MN Sales Tax.

Sessions require a $500 minimum order per session experience. Your order total is due in full at your same-day ordering appointment. There is a one-time-offer to pre-purchase at checkout today to lock in our special collection rates to save up to $800 at your reveal & ordering appointment. Please see our FAQ "What products do you offer" for more details and starting price points for our menu.

If you want the greatest savings on our special product menu for The RECHARGE Project, you're going to want to pre-purchase TODAY when you check out. Then at your same-day ordering appointment, you will select the images and products you've prepaid for. And if by chance you love many more images than what you've pre-purchased today, you can add during your ordering appointment. (add-ons will be filled at regular listed prices)

Our studio offers same day ordering, immediately following your photo session. Isn't that awesome? We'll go over your images from the session, you'll select your favorites, and you pay for your order in full at this appointment at regular listed prices on our menu. There is a $500 minimum order for the RECHARGE Project sessions.

As a reminder, no digital or physical product is included with either of The RECHARGE Project session retainers.

So glad you asked! We want it to be as easy as possible for you to go home with exactly what you love. We are proud to offer pre-purchase payment plan options before your photoshoot, as well as financing through Affirm, Klarna, and Paypal credit.

Because these mentioned payment method solutions can further create a custom payment plan based on your needs better than we can, this is what we suggest to explore if you want payment plan options.

As a reminder, our studio does not begin work on any project until the order has been paid in full by one of the options listed above. We are unable to release or deliver ANY products or images until the order has been paid in full.

If you are unable to hold your session during the specified time frame of March 15-May 30, 2025, your session retainer will turn into a standard studio session credit that you can apply towards a regularly priced photo session retainer at a future date. If you took advantage of any upgrades and pre-purchased a collection or bundle, we'll keep that on file as 100% product credit voucher towards current product offerings at regular prices for when you are ready to book again. Offers and discounts are not transferable and non refundable.
