What to Expect at Your First Boudoir Shoot

I know what you’re thinking. How am I going to pose in next to nothing in front of a complete stranger? Let’s squash those initial scary feelings right away. This is YOUR boudoir session, which means you make the rules. You only do what you feel comfortable doing, so if that means wearing more clothes than the “usual” boudoir picture, go right ahead! We want you to be happy and comfortable throughout the shoot. Also, we want to work with you and get to know you. You won’t think of us as strangers by the time of your shoot, but more so as a long time girlfriend you haven’t seen in a while. You can trust us. We take our relationship with you seriously, and only want the best for you and your photos. We have been doing this a long time, and we love to see our stars (YOU) happy and excited! This is your time to shine like the beautiful woman you are.

What to Bring

Now that we have gotten over those initial scary feelings, it’s time for the fun part! Your boudoir shoot is going to be a day to remember. Take time in selecting the outfits you want to wear and remember to bring a few different options, maybe even that racy lingerie set you have been dying to wear. In our experience, even the most conservative women will come in and end up wearing (ahem…or not wearing) something they never dreamt of. You will be surprised at how empowered you feel during these shoots. You are embracing your womanhood and sometimes it just feels good to let go.

On Arrival

When you arrive at our studio, you’ll be greeted by one of us – myself or Calie and have the option of having a glass of wine to celebrate your special day. This sometimes helps with nerves, and come on, who doesn’t love a nice glass of wine! Next you’ll be guided into hair and makeup to meet YOUR team for the shoot. We want to make you feel as special and beautiful as possible, so soak it up! If you have some ideas for hair and makeup, you can share it with the team; otherwise they will do their thing. These girls are EXPERTS at what they do, so sit back, relax and enjoy being pampered.

The Shoot

Once your hair and makeup is finished, you will be guided step by step on what to do next. We’ll direct you throughout and suggest poses for you to emulate and work with you to create the best photos possible. The most important thing is to feel good. And don’t worry; it’s easier than it sounds. Once you are in the atmosphere of the shoot – wine, music of your choice, professional make up – you are going to feel like Marilyn Monroe with no reservations.

The Photos

Once we have shot for the allotted time, we say our goodbyes and you will leave feeling rejuvenated and empowered. Calie and I will then get to work reviewing and preparing your photos for your next visit. When you come back a week later, we will go through your photos and you are able to choose your favourite ones. We then edit and put all of your photos into a memorable album that you can have forever. You will always remember this day, and whether the photos are for you or a special someone, there is a sensation you will get after that is indescribable. Getting in touch with your inner sex goddess is a feeling like no other and we think every woman should experience it at least once in their lifetime. We hope to see you soon!
