11 Tips For Your Boudoir Beauty Photo Shoot

First of all…why would anyone want to have a boudoir beauty photo shoot?!? Well…they are so much fun to start off and they can make you see and feel the beauty that you may not take the time to recognize.

If you do plan on giving this special gift to yourself or someone else, here are 11 tips to help prep for your boudoir beauty photo shoot:

1. sleep…it’s crazy what a good night’s sleep can do for us!
2. moisturize. It always gets forgotten in my life so here’s a friendly reminder in case you’re like me!
3. bring at least 5 wardrobe options including accessories. I always suggest a variety of items from baggy sexy sweaters to delicate pretty lingerie.
4. manicure and pedicure…believe it or not, your hands and feet often get captured in the photo.
5. come early…relax and enjoy the whole experience.
6. bring your own music…this is your time and bring whatever music will help you enjoy it most!
7. show up for a good time…have fun!
8. show up and I’ll do the rest…taking beautiful photographs is up to the photographer.
9. no new haircuts or new colours the day before…just in case.
10. no quick ‘tans’ right before the shoot. Your natural skin tone will be beautiful.
11. no negative words once on the set…this is a positive moment. You need to enjoy the experience and feel awesome!

You can find more of my work HERE. It’s always a treat to get pampered with hair and makeup for these shoots. I highly recommend Jordan Dean Makeup Artistry!

You can check out my Pinterest page for ideas and inspiration of Boudoir Photos. On this page you will find a variety of styles from sexy lace to big sweaters, ideas for make-up and ideas for hair. You will also find poses of all types. It’s a good idea to start your own Pinterest board of what you like and what you want to achieve at your shoot. Make sure to make this board private…unless you want everyone to see what you are pinning!! It will help to make this experience amazing for you!
