Blog Post: Getting Started with Boudoir Photography
Boudoir photography is a celebration of self-love, confidence, and empowerment, and it’s for anyone who wants to embrace their unique beauty. Whether you’re new to the idea or have been thinking about it for a while, this guide answers some common questions to help you take the first step toward an unforgettable experience.
What is boudoir photography, and who is it for?
Boudoir is for everyone—everyBODY. There’s no “requirement” to qualify for this experience. Boudoir photography is about embracing yourself as you are right now and celebrating your unique beauty. Everyone deserves to walk out of their session feeling like the queen they are, with an unstoppable confidence that carries through every part of their life.
Do I need to have modeling experience to book a session?
Not at all. Most of the women you see on my website are not models—they’re everyday women who trusted me to capture their beauty and share their stories. During your session, I’ll guide you every step of the way. From head to toe, I’ll show you how to pose, where to look, how to move, and what to do with your expression. You don’t need to worry about a thing—I’ve got you covered!
What should I bring to my boudoir session?
Bring whatever makes you feel amazing! While I offer an extensive wardrobe collection, you’re welcome to bring personal items too. My boudoir session guide—which you’ll receive once you’ve booked—includes plenty of ideas for what to wear and bring. It even comes with a handy checklist, so you can feel fully prepared for your big day.
Do you provide wardrobe options?
Absolutely! My wardrobe collection features 400–500 pieces ranging from XS to 4X, ensuring there’s something for every body type and style. You’ll have access to browse the collection and pick items that speak to you. If you want a completely stress-free experience, I also offer full styling services. I’ll handle all the outfit selections for you, so you can show up and shine without any extra effort.
How do I choose the right photographer for a boudoir session?
Choosing the right photographer is key to having an amazing experience. Look for someone whose work resonates with you—someone who captures the kind of beauty and empowerment you envision for yourself. Beyond the photos, it’s important to find a photographer you connect with, someone who will make you feel comfortable, celebrated, and at ease. When you’re having fun during your session, it shows in every image, and that’s how you get the best results.
