For me and for many of my clients, the most fun part of planning a boudoir photo session is picking out outfits. Who doesn’t love finding or picking out clothes that make them feel incredible? At my Seattle area photo studio, I have an abundant client closet packed with many different styles and sizes so you don’t actually have to bring any items to your session. But a lot of my clients do enjoy bringing some options of their own too, so here are some ideas for what to bring for your boudoir photo shoot.

If you have a boudoir photo shoot on the schedule or if you’re thinking about booking one, congratulations on taking that leap of faith and investing in yourself! Now you get to have the fun of planning. As you’re dreaming up your ideal boudoir session, here are some quick tips for what you might want to bring with you (and what you don’t have to bring if you book with me).

So often when there’s a conversation around boudoir photography, moms will say things like, “Maybe when I was younger or before I had kids, but I could never do that now.” I get it - I’m a mom too and we all go through some self-consciousness with all the changes that happen in our lives and our bodies, at least temporarily. But here’s the secret: moms are perfect for boudoir photography! Here’s why.

Boudoir photography is one of those things that so many women mull over from time to time, but it can take a while before you decide to actually do it…or maybe you never do. The idea might pop up every once in a while, or you might have friends who are encouraging you to give it a try, but you always find a reason not to do it. As women and as moms, we can always find reasons not to invest in ourselves, but there are so many more important reasons to go for it. Here’s why you should finally make the call and book that boudoir photo shoot.
