Wildly Inspired Retreat FAQ's
What is a boudoir/yoga retreat? Is it getting your photo taken in your underwear while doing yoga?
Ha no it isn't! I can see the confusion though! A boudoir/yoga retreat is a weekend full of inspiration, the quietness of nature, creativity, and a space for you to recalibrate, relax, and get back to your inherent qualities of beauty and strength! A certified yoga instructor will lead you through an hour yoga class with other Wildly Inspired women at the retreat. Each woman will have her very own private 30 minute boudoir shoot, with an Inspire Boudoir photographer. No naked or lingerie yoga poses required, unless you want to! ;)
I am not really a hippie type chick, is this thing for me?
Yoga and boudoir has definitely become more mainstream to the public and not only for the hippie type woman! We believe every woman needs time and space to relax, refocus, and feel confident in their own body. Being strong and beautiful is for every woman, in every walk of life.
When do I need to arrive?
Please arrive by 8am on October 21, 2017. Park in the main parking lot, check in at the front desk (by the main house in the butterfly garden) and they will direct you where to go!

Krause Springs. Spicewood, Texas
Do I have to get naked or show my boobs during my boudoir photo shoot?
No not at all! Boudoir does not have to be a certain thing, YOU decide how little you want to show or, ahem, SHOW OFF! ;) It is more than just getting your portrait taken in the nature. It is a chance to feel refreshed and confident and who doesn't need that!? It is the feeling of the sun warm on your skin, that ethereal light that hits your face, and the power and beauty of doing something that feels forbidden.
Who owns my photos?
Technically the copyright holder of your images is the photographer. However unless a model release is signed, your images will be kept private. After you receive your online gallery and decide you don't mind an image or all be used for portfolio use or social media, you will sign a model release allowing your images to be tastefully shown.
Do you have to look like a model to do a boudoir shoot?
Of course not! I believe every woman of any shape, size, or age should experience beauty and clarity in nature through an Inspire Boudoir shoot.
Do I have to be good at yoga?
As the photographer hosting this retreat, I can tell you first hand I am not good at yoga and require some modifications and grace when it comes to some poses! You absolutely do not have to be good at yoga to attend the retreat. This retreat is about your own journey. Kristen, the yoga instructor, will take you through a gentle vinyassa class and show various modifications ranging from the newbie yogi to the masters.
Do you provide yoga mats and a tent?
We have a very limited amount of yoga mats. If you already own one, please bring it! Don't be afraid to ask a friend or family member to borrow what you need for your retreat! However, please let us know if you need to use our equipment. We will try our very best to accommodate.
I am deaf, will you accommodate me?
Kristen Custer, your yoga instructor, is fluent in American Sign Language. You are literally in good hands. ;)
I am pregnant, can I still do this retreat?
Yoga is super beneficial during pregnancy. During each yoga class, Kristen will make sure you are well taken care of and will show modifications. If you have further questions please feel free to contact her HERE.
I hurt my back/and or have other injuries, is yoga safe?
Yoga is by far one of the best way to rehabilitate and revive a hurt or injured body. Kristen comes from extensive injury and rehabilitation, so through her own practice she has become knowledgeable in human anatomy, energy work and the overall healing process of the human mind, body and spirit. If you have further questions please feel free to contact her HERE.
I'm not really sure I can afford this retreat. Do you offer payment plans?
At this time we do not, however only a non-refundable deposit of $175 is due upon booking. This splits the total into 2 easy payments. If you have further questions on payment plans or a special circumstance, please feel free to contact us HERE.
