Ok, now that you’ve booked your boudoir shoot, what do I have to do to prepare for my boudoir session? Every woman askes that, and it can be kind of nerve racking. There are tons of nerves and emotions leading up to a boudoir shoot, and that’s ok! I’m here to help! I wanted to write down some guidelines and suggestions to ease and organize your minds and prepare you for this awesome experience!
1. Hydrate for Glowing Skin
Start drinking plenty of water at least a few days before your session. Hydration helps your skin look radiant and healthy, giving you that extra glow in your photos. Plus, it keeps you feeling your best overall.
2. Read All the Prep Guides
We provide detailed prep guides to help you get ready for your session. These include tips on wardrobe, grooming, and what to bring. Be sure to read through them carefully and feel free to ask us any questions if you’re unsure about something.
3. Stretch Before Your Session
Boudoir sessions often involve posing in ways you might not be used to. A good stretch beforehand can help you feel more comfortable and reduce any tension or stiffness. Focus on your neck, shoulders, back, and hips.
4. Take Advantage of Our Client Closet
We offer a carefully curated client closet with a variety of stunning outfits for you to choose from. Whether you’re looking for elegant lingerie or something playful, our collection has you covered. You’re welcome to bring your own pieces if you have something special in mind, but it’s not required.
5. Pamper Yourself in Advance
Schedule self-care treatments, like a manicure, pedicure, or waxing, at least a few days before your session. This will help you look and feel polished without any last-minute stress.
6. Get Plenty of Rest
A good night’s sleep the day before your session will do wonders for your energy and mood. You’ll look refreshed and be ready to bring your best self to the shoot.
7. Pack Smartly
While we provide a full client closet for your session, you’re welcome to bring any personal outfits, shoes, or accessories you’d like to include. Don’t forget essentials like nude and black undergarments.
8. Trust the Process
Our team is here to guide you every step of the way. From posing to wardrobe adjustments, trust our expertise to ensure you look your best. Relax, have fun, and let the experience unfold.
9. Relax and Be Open to Suggestions
Instead of worrying about specific themes or ideas, focus on being present and letting the session flow naturally. Our team will work with you to create stunning images that showcase your unique beauty and personality.
10. Embrace the Experience
Boudoir is about celebrating you. Embrace your beauty, let go of any insecurities, and enjoy the process. The more you allow yourself to be present, the more stunning the results will be.
Preparing for your boudoir session doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By following these tips, you’ll set yourself up for a successful and enjoyable experience. We can’t wait to capture your confidence and beauty!
