Boudior is for EVERYONE!
Boudoir & how it changes you It's more than just beautiful photos of yourself. It's a life-changing experience that teaches you to love the skin you're in and embrace it. Boudoir photos are exciting! You get to dress up (dress down), get your hair and makeup done, wear the sexiest clothes, and rock out your session. It's the moment you rediscover how lovely you are, inside and out. If you're tired of hiding in the shadows and not living life to the fullest, this could be your first step towards breaking out of that. It's time to manifest your sexy side!
Saying YES to boudoir Once you say yes to booking your boudoir session, it's time to get excited! Nobody truly understands how powerful it truly is until they do it. Many people do boudoir for several different reasons. They are back in the dating world, they beat cancer, they hit a goal weight, they are celebrating motherhood, they're healing from trauma, they're celebrating a birthday, or they just want to experience it. Your photographer will chit-chat with you on your style and your dreams with boudoir. That way, they can help you tailor your session to your unique personality. After you and your photographer discuss what to expect, you're ready to start shopping and doing the prep work. From there, it only gets better and better!
Why Wait? Let's create some MAGIC!
What Should I wear?
Identify your body shape!
Apple - Your top features are broader than your torso. Try lingerie that gets all eyes AWAY from your waist and center region. How about trying a babydoll or corset!
Hourglass - Curves for days! Your top and bottom are bigger than your waist. Anything form-fitting will define those curves, such as bodysuits, hugging slips, and bra/panty combos!
Pear - Smaller top and big booty! Ruffle tops and push-up bras are great to enhance your chest. Try them with high-rise thongs to lengthen your body line.
Rectangle - A straight figure, top to bottom. G-strings and thongs will create an illusion of a more prominent booty! Pair with a demi cup push-up bra to add more cleavage.
Why people drool over thigh highs!
When it comes to thigh highs, the options are limitless. These gripping mid-thigh stockings are a solid 10/10. Why is everyone obsessed with them? Because they're a simple way to enhance your sexy photos instantaneously.
No matter what kind of legs you have, they complement everyone. If you think your legs aren't your greatest feature and want to hide scars, dimples, or veins, this is your answer. They elongate your legs and transform them!
Not to mention the variety of colors, patterns, and textures available. Solid black laced thigh highs, see-through skin-colored mesh thigh-highs, vibrant and colorful thigh-highs... We swoon over the creative possibilities.
Choosing the right kind of lingerie you'll love!
All boudoir babes want to look and feel confident during their session. The best way to determine what lingerie will compliment you the most is to consider what you think are your best features.
Comfort is a priority. Know what sizes you wear, because the last thing you'll want to feel is suffocated and tight. Have a professional measure you! You'll want your top to support your bust without the gals coming out. Move around in your lingerie and see how it feels!
Think about what body parts of yours are your favorite. Also, think about which parts you want hidden. Worried about your belly region? Try on different corsets, bodysuits, a babydoll slip, t-shirts (no pants club!), a basque set, or a teddy.
If you're really trying to show off your legs, then you're in luck. There are various choices! Thigh highs, stockings, heels, and long socks can accentuate those for you, no matter what type of lingerie you choose.
Trendy lingerie that covers bellies!
If you ask most people what they like least about themselves, you'll most likely get the answer 'my stomach.' Though we encourage people to love themselves for what they are, we understand those feelings of wanting to conceal it. Especially for postpartum mothers, changes to the body can feel different and disheartening. But don't let that keep you from doing a boudoir session. There are TONS of options if wanting to hide your belly!
Lace Teddies
Taking it to the next level of sultry, lace is a definite yes in our book. Sweet, but a bit of attitude with it.
High-Waisted Bottoms
A completely stunning piece of lingerie to hide any stomach, all while keeping it sensual!
Sexy Shapewear
Don't let the word shapewear fool you. It has the advantage of being swoon-worthy, concealing, and smoothing. It is meant to shape and sculpt!
Ideas for your session!
Totally naked
Okay, it sounds scary. But stay with me here. As skilled photographers, we know how to pose you while keeping it not-so nude and in-your-face. Different body parts, like arms and legs, can hide your bits and pieces.
Button-downs
Rock it out in one of these! With the buttons, we can keep it modest or sultry - whichever you prefer.
A sheer dress
Is it less is more or more or less? A sheer material can tease the eye and is perfect for someone who isn't quite ready to go completely nude... yet.
Jackets
Whether it be yours or your partner's jacket, this is a fun way to get in the mood while keeping your session cozy and relaxed.
A fancy dress
This is a great option for those wanting to keep it tasteful yet mysterious. A unique dress can be styled in different ways while still being sexy.
A bed sheet
Wrap yourself in bedding for classic and timeless boudoir photos. There are different poses you can play around with, and it's seductive and sweet!
Faux Fur coats
If you're wanting to cover areas while still playing the peek-a-boo game, this is a cool idea with a bit of flair!
Seven professional work outfits with a sexy feel!
Everyone wants to appear glamourous at work, and we have some pointers for you. These tips will have you well on your way to incorporating boudoir elements into your everyday outfits.
Skirt suits
A slimming skirt suit looks amazing on any body shape and type. Be sure it's comfortable and fits correctly. Try a pencil skirt and blazer! Wanting to take it up a notch? Pair with your favorite heels.
Stockings
This should be a no-brainer! If you plan on wearing a dress, make sure to wear stockings. It's feminine and professional! If you desire, choose a different color or pattern for a unique look.
Pearls
Pearls have a wonderful way of being fashion-forward, sophisticated, and elegant.
Textures
Add flair to your work wardrobe. If it's a chilly day, layer a faux fur or leather jacket on top of your outfit.
Bold colors

Rompers
Long rompers can make a statement, especially paired with heels.
