Frequently asked questions
Yes, wardrobe is included in every session, you actually get to pick 3 looks from the studio wardrobe!
You are of course welcome to bring things of your own as well. I only have femme wardrobe (sizes xsm-xxxl)
and some girls wardrobe so if you need something outside of that genre you may have to bring your own.
Every shoot includes a consultation so you get to see the wardrobe before your shoot date and make sure I have
options you love before your big day! (Although I have tons and I've never had anyone not find looks they love!)
Yes! We have two sets and 3 outfits for every session and do more than one theme pretty often! We just aim for some hair and makeup styling that works for both vibes!
The combo is totally up to you, a modern vanity fair editorial glam look and a painted goddess?
A Victorian lazing in the greenhouse and a sea siren?
a vintage pinup listening to records and a moody dark 1920s vamp?
an angel lounging in the clouds and a sneaky little devil dancing in the forest?
Modern Boudoir and Personal branding for your business?
Seriously so many options I know it can make your head spin a little! I suggest looking through my galleries and social medias (Im Autumn Luciano Studios on Facebook and Instagram) and maybe drawing some inspiration from Pinterest, take a peek at the available sets page, and from there we can narrow down your themes/looks when we have your consultation and come up with a solid game plan. I'm here to help!
I have a *gasp!* home studio! Or I should say I have a studio home....because this house was purchased specifically for me to create this space for your shoot. So obviously my address is not listed on the site, I can say here that I am on the north-east side of Lansing Michigan.
The studio and reveal area is in what should be my living room (But isn't, you wont find my husband lounging on the couch when you get here, it's set up as solely studio space!) Off the studio there is the styling room that has a bathroom.
The back half of the house is locked off and tho you may here the pitter-patter of tiny cat paws on the other side of the house, no cats, will be in the space during the session (and they are not allowed in the styling room at all, if you have allergies I suggest going with your gut on this one but a lot of my allergic clients have faired will with an allergy pill. If you give me a heads up we will give the studio an even more thorough sweeping than usual.
I do have a husband, Kevin (You may know him from his viral "studio husband lighting test model" videos on tiktok)
he works from home but he's often out in his shop and is very good as being quiet during our shoot so you may never even get a hint of his existence. Occasionally I do need him to pop into the studio for crazy big set changes. If this is the case for your shoot I will give you a heads up, and I usually have clients pop into the styling room for a quick selfie break while this is happening so you still may never even see him.
Any human you'd love to be photographed is welcome! And no it doesn't cost any different to add people to your shoot (unless they require hair/makeup styling too! If so let me know your requirements and I can give you a quote.)
I can only accommodate small groups (4-5 people max if the group includes kids, max adult groups would be 3 total, especially if hair and makeup is required for everyone, as i'd have to bring in multiple stylist and it could be a pretty long day for everyone.)
Pets however I can't accommodate unless we are shooting outdoors on location somewhere.
I used to, but having a home studio with many cats, I have had people bring in fleas, and even pan-leukemia which nearly cost us our sweet lily cat, and we've had such awful luck with our cat's health the last handful of years I just won't risk it anymore and can't make acceptations. This also being said if you are hoping to bring any live florals to add into your shoot, there are no lilies ever allowed to come in! (I know this is ironic, knowing I have a cat named Lily....but lilies are the most toxic thing to a cat, even a little pollen falling off on the floor they could later walk on is dangerous, for this reason they are not allowed! )
I LOVE working with small business owners/self employed people, you know why? Well beyond that I just love getting to help create content for you to grow the business you love and sink your all into (trust me I know it's not easy and a real labor of love.) ya'll get to write this experience off on your taxes, could we ask for anything cooler? (I mean consult your tax professional to be sure, but you should be good.)
And I'm not talking just classic small business owners, anything you use to promote yourself that is for the purpose of bringing you income is a write off, this means performers, musicians, burlesque dancers, only fans girlies, other photographers! You posting it on socials, making fliers, etc? It's a write off!
So we can do:
Personal branding session
Promotional / social media content
Album Covers/books covers/author photos
Product photography
Etc!
Every image you order come as a professionally retouched, high resolution digital with personal printing rights and publication rights (submit to magazines, news articles, websites, business cards, linkedin, social medias, fliers, album covers, book jackets, etc! The only thing you can't do is print to resell (products, prints, t-shirts, bags, etc. For example, a burlesque dancer selling an autographed print at a show.) but you can add that release for an additional fee!

Absolutely not! Most of my clients have rarely, if ever been in front of a camera, let alone to this scale. You can come in without any idea what to do and I promise you'll be totally fine! I will guide you through each pose, adjusting you as we go from head to toe.
