Your Boudoir Session: What to Expect, How to Prepare, and Why It Changes Everything
Let’s be real. I know that first-time nerves are a thing. Almost every woman walks into her boudoir session asking, “What do I do with my hands?” (Seriously. Every time.)
But here’s what happens next:
I guide you through every single pose, from head to toe!
You get real-time encouragement, so you never feel awkward.
You get to laugh, relax, and feel like yourself again — maybe even for the first time in a while.
My boudoir photography process is rooted in emotional safety, clear direction, and creating a vibe that feels aligned with who you really are. I have photographed women of all sizes, ages, and life experiences. You do not need modeling experience or a “goal weight” to be worthy of this moment. Just show up as you are. I will take care of the rest.
Your session starts with professional hair and makeup, followed by two to three outfit changes. Throughout the experience, I guide you every step of the way. We take breaks if you need them, and I will even show you previews on the back of the camera to remind you just how incredible you look.
Within the first 15 minutes, something shifts. Your shoulders drop. The self-doubt quiets down. You stop trying to pose and start owning your space.
This is more than a photo session. It is an empowering boudoir photography experience that allows you to see yourself in a bold and beautiful new way.

How to Prepare for Your Boudoir Photoshoot
You do not have to figure this out alone. Before your session, I will send you a complete pre-session guide. It covers everything — what to wear, how to prep, what to bring, and how to shift into the right headspace.
Preparing for your boudoir photoshoot is not about perfection. It is about support. You will also have access to my client closet, a list of trusted lingerie shops, and suggestions for self-care rituals to help you feel grounded and ready.
