What is boudoir photography?
On todays blog we are going to address a huge question that many people often ask us…. what is boudoir photography?
Boudoir photography combines elements of portrait and fashion photography. Boudoir photo sessions are meant to be intimate and honor ones body and sexuality. Typically, women have these done but men can do them as well.
Boudoir sessions can be intimidating for the average person who has never been behind the camera. Anyone can do boudoir. You don’t have to be a model, confident, or be the “perfect size.” Most people who book a session feel nervous, but open up and feel more confident after the first 15 minutes. We will plan locations, outfits, and poses with you. There is nothing that you need to worry about! The session is there to celebrate you as you are right now.
Here are some common misconceptions about boudoir sessions:
It’s just “slutty” sexy photos
While the majority of boudoir is about taking photos of your body and making it look freaking amazing, it’s not just that. All of the boudoir photos that we take are classy! The main goal of these sessions is for you to leave more confident than before. We want you to leave your session loving yourself and your body. Our main way of doing this is through classy, timeless, boudoir photos that celebrate you.
Boudoir sessions are too expensive
Boudoir sessions like any photo session, are an investment. Boudoir sessions typically involve a hair and makeup artist, studio, and other fees for the photographer. This experience is all about the end product, your photos. The more you invest into your photographer and their work, the more you will get out of your boudoir experience. At the end of your boudoir experience you will feel more confident and the investment will definitely be worth it.
Only people with “beautiful bodies” can do boudoir
Beautiful is such a subjective term. Boudoir is truly for everyone. Doing a boudoir session will allow you to begin to love the you that you are right now. Stop waiting to lose the weight, chop the hair, or hide any other part of you. Embrace who you are and let’s get to work!
