When planning your boudoir session, there are a few things people always ask about — when to book, what to wear, and what to bring. While these are important, I want to share a few other things that will help you walk away from your experience with zero regrets! Ready? Let’s dive in:
#1 Boudoir isn’t just a gift for a partner.
Most women start a boudoir session thinking it’s a gift for their partner, but here’s the real twist: the biggest gift is for you. Self-worth, confidence, and some serious self-love. Boudoir can change your life by helping you fall back in love with yourself. So, while thinking about what your partner finds sexy, make sure you focus on what makes you feel confident and amazing.
Trust me, confidence is the sexiest thing you can wear!
#2 You don’t need to lose weight before your session.
Forget stressing about slimming down — you booked a pro who knows how to pose you to make you look your best. Here at R.H.L. Boudoir, my job is to show you how stunning you already are, no milestone required. These will be the most beautiful photos you’ve ever seen of yourself, no matter where you’re at in your weight journey. The version of you right now deserves to be loved, too!
#3 Boudoir should be FUN!
I’m all about giving you more than just amazing photos. Your session is meant to be an exciting, liberating experience. We’re basically besties once you step into the studio, and there might even be a few laugh breaks along the way (or happy tears). Bring your personality — the more you, the better. We’ll capture the real, authentic you in every shot!
#4 Sharing your fears helps!
Before your session, we’ll meet up so I can walk you through everything — what to wear, how to prepare, and answer all your questions. Don’t be shy about sharing your concerns, whether it’s about your body, scars, old tattoos, or even privacy worries. The more I know, the better I can personalize your session and make sure you feel 100% comfortable and confident.
#5 Your opinion of yourself matters more than anyone else’s.
Boudoir isn’t just for brides or big life events (though those are great reasons too). It’s for anyone who wants to celebrate themselves, no occasion needed. Not everyone will “get” why you’re doing this, but that’s okay. This is about you and what you need. If you’re ready to invest in yourself and experience the most empowering thing you’ve ever done, let’s make it happen!
