Lingerie, Outfits and Wardrobe for your Boudoir Session
What should I wear for my boudoir photoshoot?
One of the fun parts of a boudoir experience is planning your wardrobe items. This might be an excuse to do a little shopping! Most women bring 1-3 lingerie pieces to their boudoir session. Pick items that fit well and that you love. If you don’t love it, don’t bring it. There are lots of lingerie options that work great for a boudoir shoot, including bra and panty sets, body suits, babydoll slips and corsets. Many women worry that they are bringing the “wrong” wardrobe items to their shoot. Don’t worry - we can make almost anything look great on camera. This photoshoot experience is less about what you’re wearing and more about YOU. If you need some wardrobe inspiration, check out our Amazon lingerie shopping guide here.
Which colors of lingerie look best on camera?
Black lingerie is always classic and sexy. Jewel tones such as purple, navy, red, turquoise and crimson also look good on almost everyone. Lingerie in white, cream or pastel colors work beautifully for a soft and natural aesthetic.
What if I don’t want to wear lingerie?
No problem. There are lots of options for a boudoir photoshoot besides lingerie including an oversized shirt or sweater, a silky robe, a form-fitting dress or a jeans + tank look. You might also consider a nude or implied nude look.
Can I bring multiple lingerie outfits?
Yes! You are welcome to bring a variety of outfits and we will help you select the best ones for the camera.
What if I want outfits with more coverage?
You don’t have to bare everything. A bodysuit or corset that covers your middle is often just as sexy (or even more so!) than a bra and panty set. Other items that provide coverage include lace robes, thigh-high stockings, high-waisted panties and garter belts.
Can I bring props and personal items to my session, such as a sports jersey, sentimental jewelry, my boxing gloves or my boyfriend’s hat?
Yes! We love personalizing your photoshoot for YOU! Please bring anything to your photoshoot that is meaningful to you that you would like to incorporate into your boudoir pics. Check out fun props and accessories here.
Should I bring jewelry to my boudoir photoshoot?
Sure! If you love jewelry, feel free to bring it to your session. You might want to bring your engagement and/or wedding ring and any sentimental jewelry pieces that are special to you. We also have earrings and necklaces at the studio that you can borrow for your session. Also, if jewelry is not your thing, you do not have to wear it!
Do you have wardrobe items at the studio that I can wear for my boudoir pics?
Yes! We have lace robes, red-bottom high heels, earrings, men’s shirts, and angel wings that you can borrow for your session. We do not have bras and panties to share, so plan to bring your own.
Is there anything that I should NOT bring to my boudoir session?
At our studio, we do not allow drugs, cigarettes, weapons, guns or minors under age 18.
Do you have Victoria’s Secret style angel wings?
Yes! We have gray and pink angel wings at the studio that you are welcome to wear during your boudoir session. They are 6 feet tall and constructed with real ostrich feathers. You will feel like a bombshell when you wear the boudoir wings! Check out images with angel wings here.
