What to Wear or Not
Our clients sometimes have questions about the session, so I wanted to create a list of boudoir & glamour photo shoot tips to help you prepare!
I suggest having a variation of the following combinations:
- One piece set (bodysuit, teddy or fitted slip dress)
- Two piece set (bra/undies, high-wasted skirt/bra, garter belt set/bra/stockings)
- Cover up wrap/shawl/cardigan/off shoulder shirt
- Something you LOVE - pastel colours or black photograph well
Oh, and one other thing
Please have a body suit.
Yes, a BODYSUIT. You will thank me later.
We want you to feel completely comfortable on your shoot. With that in mind, it is truly up to you with how much or how little skin you show. We love for our shoots to show our client’s personality, so feel free to have something special as well as props. If there’s one piece of advice I can give you regarding how to prepare for a boudoir shoot, it’s this: don't be afraid to have fun!
We usually start out shooting with a little more clothing. As you become more comfortable, we can work our way through your outfit choices. Feel free to have lots of your favourite outfits and we’ll pick out the best for the shoot.

Bra and Undies
Most importantly, have at least one bra and undies set. Start with basic black and then add colours and patterns. Bras and undies can be photographed alone or paired with any of the other clothing items or accessories you bring. They are also helpful when setting up implied nude poses. (Consider high waisted undies and/or corset belt, if tummy is area of concern.)

Lingerie
A bodysuit, vintage slip, teddy and/or camisole always photographs well. High wasted undies, Thigh high stockings, a garter belt, and heels are super sexy too. Start simple and grow more extreme from there. Think about what colours look good on you.

Casual Attire
Everyday clothing such as sheer tops, jeans, can look cute and sexy if photographed properly. A simple white tank top or cami can be super cute! If this is a gift for your partner then have some items from his wardrobe. This can be one of his favourite ties, or a button down shirt. Anything that makes the images more personal and sexy to him! It also adds variety to your collection of outfits and will look great in the final shots.
