An intimate boudoir photography session is when you wear sexy outfits, lingerie, or even go scantily clad and get your photos taken. There are several reasons one may do a boudoir session, but guess what, only YOU need to know the reason you are doing them.

The photos are tasteful, and nudity is usually implied rather than seen (although, feel free to get naked!)  They are sensual and sexy as well as classy and elegant.

Boudoir shoots make excellent wedding day, anniversary, holiday, and birthday gifts or just because. Your partner will love them, but you may be surprised how much you’ll love them too!

My #1 tip is to bring all the things! Women bring suit cases full of outfits and props.  Here are a few examples:

• Classic lingerie/bra & pantie sets
• Your favorite sweater or t-shirt with panties and long socks
• Those jeans that make your butt look sooooo good – We pair those with nothing on top, it really makes a statement 😉
• Bring all the shoes, especially the heels!
• Jewelry! Especially something that your SO gifted to you or your wedding ring
• Garter belt and fishnet stockings elongate those legs – Oh my!
• Make it spicy! Bring the whips, chains, handcuffs – there’s no judgement here!

If you’re doing the session for someone else – As your wedding day or anniversary gift – Consider adding a touch of them to the session.

• Their clothing: button up shirts, uniforms, jerseys, etc.
• Include their hobbies! Bring a football, a race car flag, guns, whatever they are into.
• Think outside the box! I had one girl bring a rock climbing harness because she met her husband while rock climbing. Do you know how good that harness looked with fish nets?!?

The goal is to wear items that make you feel beautiful.  You’ll look sexiest when you feel confident!
