So you’ve booked your session… or maybe you’re interested in learning more about what your experience would look like.

Well, as with any life-changing adventure, leading up to your boudoir shoot, a bit of preparation is key.

Whether your session is on the calendar already or you want to know the details of preparation before booking a session, here are 10 ways to prepare for your session:

If you’ve been eyeing our studio for some time and have not yet booked your boudoir photo shoot, this one is for you.

I know how daunting booking a boudoir session may feel, which is why it’s important to focus on the end goal.

So I encourage you to ask yourself, what do YOU want to get out of your boudoir session?

Having a safe space to express yourself is one of the many reasons why our Montana Boudoir Sessions are so empowering. It’s not so often that you can get into character and see the deepest desires of your imagination manifest.

For many women, these photo shoots are a way to embrace their sense of play and fantasize about what it means to look and feel sexy.

I am thrilled to share this lovely client’s Edgy Fantasy Themed Boudoir shoot. When she approached me with her vision for her photo shoot, I couldn’t wait to see what we could create together.

Nothing is more encouraging than hearing what someone can get from a Montana boudoir session.

Maybe you have a Pinterest board dedicated to boudoir or more boudoir photos saved on Instagram than you can count.

What will make you finally pull the trigger and book a session with me?

As a boudoir photographer, I know how boudoir can be a rewarding experience. But as a potential client, I know having the spotlight on you can be intimidating.

The beauty of a boudoir shoot is having the opportunity to get to realign with yourself. Plus the prep before the shoot works like a meditation to help you get in the zone.

Our Montana boudoir photo shoots are different from any other way of indulging yourself. The experience is the perfect recipe for ultimate relaxation and getting in tune with yourself.

But what does boudoir exactly entail?

Some parts of boudoir are different depending on the client.

At the same time, some of the most exciting elements of boudoir are what stays the same from client to client. Who doesn’t love consistency?

The right environment can make channeling your confidence easy. A location should offer you an opportunity to get your mind in the proper head space for your session.

That is why destination shoots are perfect. It offers a different experience than a regular studio session.

They are somewhere a little more unfamiliar than regular shoots. I do my best to choose locations that are serene and picturesque. So you can get out of your head and focus on being in tune with your environment and yourself.

My upcoming destination shoot is in Whitefish, Montana. I’ll be there from Thursday, October 13 to Saturday, October 15.

Whitefish is an autumn attraction that offers postcard beauty and I’d love for you to meet me there.

There are many elements to our boudoir sessions that make the experience exhilarating. But, the specifics that make each client different—from the wardrobe, makeup, and hair—are the most exciting part to me.

I had a fabulous client Jess come in a while ago and she blew me away. Her energy and ideas made her a dream to work with.

Whether you are a new client or a veteran of boudoir photography, it can be helpful to see what other women do during their sessions. Sometimes we have to see what is possible for others before we can see ourselves doing it.

Women can inspire us when they are being their true selves. That’s why I am thrilled to show you some photos from my session with Jess.

Her wardrobe and accessory choices really brought out her personality.

Boudoir photography is a luxury investment in your self-care journey. Like any decadent treat we really desire, we have to have a plan. With our boudoir sessions, I’ll be guiding you through the planning process so you can just focus on being present during your session.

One part of the boudoir experience that is a team effort between you and me, is your image investment. The wonderful thing about this is that figuring out the best way to navigate your boudoir investment doesn’t have to be a solo mission.

I have various payment plans and special financing options in place that I would love to walk you through in this post!

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Right?

Las Vegas, Nevada is known as THE destination for celebration. Whether it’s bachelor and bachelorette parties, birthdays, elopements…and boudoir!

Boudoir is the celebration of our bodies as we embrace ourselves with utmost confidence.

Vegas is the perfect place for a boudoir photo shoot because like those other activities, you will absolutely leave your vacation with photos that spark memories and inspire confidence for a lifetime!

I’ll be in Vegas for the National Rodeo Finals that are happening from December 1-10. If you find yourself at the same event, come say hi! I’ll be there for the first weekend, December 2-6, and I would love for you to book a boudoir session with me.

Everyone preaches about how important it is to get out of your comfort zone because that’s where life begins. It’s true that the stories we find ourselves telling over and over again are from times when we left our comfort zone.

Boudoir is the perfect amount of pushing your boundaries and testing yourself when it comes to taking a chance and leaving your comfort zone.

It’s also therapeutic since it gives you a chance to explore a version of yourself that you don’t get to see every day.

A boudoir is a form of therapy that can affirm and remind you exactly who you are.
