1. Dress to impress (Yourself!)

Let’s talk outfits. What makes you feel like a goddess? Lacy lingerie? A silky robe? Your favorite band tee? All of the above? Bring pieces that you’d love to see on yourself and that let your personality shine. And don’t be afraid to add some statement jewelry, your favorite heels, or even a unique prop. If you’re ever unsure about what would work for the session, chat with your boudoir photographer to make sure your choices fit the overall vibe.

2. Stick to your beauty routine

You’re already gorgeous, but a little prep work can go a long way. Stay consistent with your beauty rituals in the days leading up to your shoot. Follow your regular skincare routine to keep your skin glowing. If you have any waxing or nail appointments, schedule them a few days before the shoot. The results will still be fresh, but any redness and irritation will go away by the time you arrive at the studio. And remember not to try any new products right before the shoot – we don’t want any unexpected reactions!

3. Plans for the day before

Oh, so your session is just a day away? Lucky you! The day before the shoot is for pampering yourself as much as you can. You’ll look your best, and more importantly, you’ll feel great. Plan to get a good night’s sleep to look fresh tomorrow. Eat balanced meals throughout the day, just try to avoid heavy foods that could make you feel uncomfortable. Of course, drink plenty of water too. And before you go to bed to catch some Z’s, lay out your outfits and accessories, and pack a bag with anything else you might need.

4. The big day is finally here

It’s showtime! Start with a light, nutritious breakfast and moisturize your skin for that extra glow. Double-check your bag to make sure you have everything you need. Slip into something comfortable to wear to the studio – you don’t want any clothing lines! Plan to arrive a little early to give yourself time to relax and get settled. And hey, if you want to indulge in a little extra pampering, go for it!

5. Relax, we’ve got this!

Now, this may just be the most important step: Try to relax and enjoy the moment! Your photographer and their team have got it all under control, and outside of self-care, you don’t really need to worry about any extensive preparations. Making you feel confident and comfortable is part of what we do. This shoot is all about you, so let go of any worries, have fun, and embrace the experience.
