Financing Your Fierceness: Payment Plan Options for Your Boudoir Session
Financing options for your luxury boudoir experience with Kristen Jones Boudoir: Akron Boudoir Photographer
It’s no secret: boudoir sessions can be expensive. They’re well worth the investment to the clients who have researched and are ready for an exceptional experience, but money is still money and clients need to be able to make financially responsible decisions that won’t cause stress on their everyday life.
What are my financing options for my boudoir session?
I’m happy to say there are several options you can use!
✨ All major debit and credit cards
At Kristen Jones Boudoir, we accept any major credit or debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover, etc.) so you can use your own card to get cash back or other kinds of perks! A boudoir session AND air miles? Yes please!
✨ Afterpay Pay in 4 OR Afterpay Monthly
This is a BRAND NEW option at Kristen Jones Boudoir and will make your financing options easier than ever! Simply choose what you want to put on your prepayment plan and we’ll send you the invoice of the total amount, including taxes. Then select the Afterpay option, where you’ll be able to decide on the best financing option for you: 4 interest free payments (up to $2000) OR monthly payments with an APR (up to $4000). This is readily made in your invoice, all you have to do is follow the prompted steps.
✨ Affirm’s One-Time Debit Card
Similar to Afterpay, Affirm will allow you to apply for a one-use debit card when you create an account with them. Simply follow a few steps:
Create your account with Affirm (if you don’t have one already)
Discover your spending power (this should be on your dashboard if you have an account already)
Type in “Kristen Jones Boudoir” into the search bar that says “where are you shopping?”
Scroll ALL the way down to the very bottom of the search options, where it will say “Create a virtual card: Pay with a one-time virtual card”
Type in the amount you’d like to finance ($3000, for example)
Verify your identity using a drivers license or passport
Pick a payment plan
Review and confirm!
You’ll then receive a one-time card number to use to pay your invoice in full. You can make payments on your Affirm account and have your products while you’re paying off your balance!
Affirm guarantees that their pre-qualification will never affect your credit, only your payment history and loan amount (the amount you actually spend) will.
Apply for your one-time affirm debit card here!
✨ In-House Monthly Payment Plan
Avoid the middle man and put your balance on a prepayment plan. Choose your prepayment investment ($2500, for example) and break it down over the months prior to your session.
Example: if you book your session for June 15th, 2024 on December 15th, 2023 your prepayment plan will break down as follows:
First payment due: January 1, 2024
Payment amount: $250 + Ohio Sales Tax
Last payment due: May 1, 2024
Session date: June 15th, 2024
Any upgrades you’d like to make can be done before or on the day of your session.

Miss A’s Boudoir Session | Akron, OH
Can you believe it’s her third session at our boudoir studio?!
Ally is a frequent flyer at Kristen Jones Boudoir and she was the first to volunteer for a session in the new Akron, OH Boudoir Studio location!
Together, we worked through each different set available and she was even willing to climb up on the ledge of the massive industrial windows (hello natural light boudoir studio x1000!)
The green velvet couch is the perfect color to accentuate Ally’s gorgeous two-piece black lingerie set that she brought for her session (peep our future blog about our client closet and how to choose the outfit that works best for you!)
I am STOKED to say that there’s also a stunning burnt orange couch so similar to the couch from my old studio which will bring some fond memories to the surface from previous clients’ sessions!
But the thing I love most about this studio (besides the giant windows, of course)? The huge gorgeous plants! These babies are MASSIVE and add an earthy, vibrant feel to the space that’s already there. It’s such a dream photography studio to be in, I think all of my clients (and past clients!) will love this space more than any other I’ve offered yet!
This is what this stunning woman had to say about her experience:
”Kristen is hands down one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. She makes you feel so sexy and confident. She includes you in her Facebook group and the ladies are so supportive! I’m obsessed and I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”

Before your shoot, it's important to communicate any concerns or boundaries you may have. A professional and understanding photographer will listen attentively and address any worries or fears you may have. They will ensure that your session is tailored to your needs and desires, making adjustments to accommodate your comfort level.
During the shoot, it's essential for the photographer to create a positive and encouraging atmosphere.
