Boudoir: Outfit Ideas and Shopping Tips to Rock your Photo Shoot

June 30th, 2014


So, you've decided to book a boudoir photo shoot. You're excited and maybe even a bit nervous. You're wondering, "What on earth should I wear?” or “What look should I go for?” Check out these boudoir: outfit ideas and shopping tips that are going to make your experience easy and enjoyable.

What look do you want?

There's a wide variety of looks you can go for, for your boudoir shoot. Do you want to be a sexy cheerleader, or would you prefer to wear some revealing lingerie that is sure to make your photos showcase your seductive side? It's imperative to choose a look that is going to make you comfortable. When you're shopping for your outfit, remember that more is less. It's great to add accessories to spice up your look, but don't go overboard. The focus of the shoot is you, not those 5-inch stilettos you're dying to wear.

Putting the outfit together

Make sure when you're shopping that you try your outfits on! You want clothes that are going to accentuate your beautiful body type. You don't want to get an outfit that's skin tight, that's going to make you uncomfortable. For example, why not try a corset or a teddy if you're comfortable with showing that much skin? If you want something a little more conservative, how about wearing a cute tank top with boy shorts or some cute undies? If you're getting the photos taken for a special man in your life, how about wearing a jersey sporting his favorite team? You don't need to be nude to create a sexy boudoir look. Sexy high heels, boots, hats, and stockings are great accessories to think about when you're shopping for the perfect look. Still not sure what to wear? Don't worry, I have a lingerie wardrobe, and we're sure to find something that works for you!

Choose accessories that compliment you

Do you have gorgeous blue eyes? Why not get some sky-colored bracelets or earrings that are really going to bring out those baby blues? A lot of women are understandably uncomfortable doing this kind of shoot. You want to buy items that are going to bring out your best features, and make you feel confident in front of the camera. If you absolutely love your legs, try a pair of fishnet stockings to add a more exotic look to your outfit.

Get dolled up!

It's not essential, but it's definitely recommended to get your makeup and hair professionally done. Not to worry, I offer professional hair and makeup! This is going make you feel and look your best, and you're going to shine in front of that camera!
