Preparing for a Boudoir Session
Preparing for a Boudoir Session can be a fun and exciting experience. From picking out the perfect lingerie to selecting the right makeup look and hairstyle, there are many important decisions to make before your (other) big day. I’m going to give you some helpful tips on what to do before your boudoir session so that you feel confident and beautiful when you step in front of the camera!
Manicure and Pedicure
Don’t forget to show some love to your hands and feet before a boudoir session! Having well maintained fingernails and toenails can really help get you feeling ready for the big day! I don’t know about you, but there is not much else that makes me feel instantly more feminine than having my nails done!
The right combination of colors, application techniques, and top coats can bring out the best in your look and help you feel more at ease with yourself. Using neutral colors or a classic french manicure keep your nails from being a distraction your photos. If you’re feeling a little funky, try a black french tip manicure – it’s the best way to show off your personality without it being a distraction in the photos!
Waxing and Shaving
When it comes to preparing for your boudoir session, many women tend to overlook the importance of shaving or waxing their lady parts. While this is understandable given that many of us might not think about that on the daily, it’s important to understand that they can have a big impact on the look and feel of your photos.
Shaving or waxing can help to eliminate unwanted body hair and make your skin look smooth and flawless in photos. It also allows the photographer to capture the details of your body clearly, without any distractions from excess hair.
Hair and Makeup
Researching your own ideas for makeup can be an exciting part of getting ready for your boudoir session. Taking the time to look at different styles, colors, and techniques can help you find the look that best expresses who you are and makes you feel beautiful in front of the camera.
Think about the aesthetic you’re going for in your photos – do you want glam, barbie doll, dramatic, alternative? With the right preparation and research, you’ll be prepared to tell our amazing hair and makeup artists your desired look!
Don’t forget to touch up your roots! Touching up your roots before a boudoir photoshoot is an important step in preparing for your boudoir session. If you are naturally grey, or just want to cover up any new regrowth, having freshly colored roots can help ensure that your look will last throughout the photoshoot. When taking boudoir photos, a variation in color can be distracting and nothing in these photos is as important as the main subject – YOU!
Lingerie
When it comes to choosing the perfect lingerie for a boudoir shoot, you want to pick pieces that make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. After all, boudoir photography is all about celebrating your beauty and feeling empowered, so you don’t want anything getting in the way of that!
Try to identify what lingerie style looks the best on your body type, and go with pieces in colors, fabrics, and cuts that will flatter your figure. Avoid anything too tight or restricting as it may leave lines and prevent you from feeling comfortable during the shoot. However, if you must have a piece that’s either too tight or too loose – always choose too tight!
