Top 5 things to think about before your boudoir session

I work as a boudoir photographer in Ottawa, and here are a few things every client needs to think about before their boudoir photography session!

#1 - Choose the right photographer

It's important to choose a photographer who makes you feel comfortable and confident. Look for a photographer who has experience with boudoir photography and a portfolio that you like.
Ask for referrals, and set up a meeting before the session, so you can get to know each other, and make sure the vibe is right! This is so important for this type of photography session.

#2 - Plan your outfits

Consider what you want to wear for your boudoir session.
Lingerie, robes, and other form-fitting clothing can be great options, but ultimately, it's important to choose something that makes you feel sexy and comfortable.

This is your chance to express yourself, so think about your wardrobe as a way to tell a little (or a lot) about you!

#3 - Consider your comfort level

Boudoir sessions can be as revealing or as modest as you like.
Think about your comfort level and what you are comfortable with before the session.

Have a conversation with your photographer to let them know what you are envisioning.
And of course, on the day of the session, you get to call the shots!
A good boudoir photographer should be checking in with you regularly during the photoshoot also!

#4 - Talk to your photographer

Yes, I’m mentioning this one again, as it is so important!
Communication is key.
Before the session, discuss your goals and any concerns you have with your photographer to ensure that you both are on the same page.

If you have any questions, be sure to ask!
An experienced boudoir photographer should be giving you lots of information too, and sharing their knowledge and experience.

#5 - Relax and have fun!

Boudoir sessions can be intimidating, but it's important to relax and have fun.
Trust your photographer and try to let go of any self-consciousness.
The more you relax, the better the photographs will be.
You are worth celebrating!
