Here Are 3 Easy Tips to Help You Feel Confident and Camera-Ready
So, you’ve booked your boudoir session — how exciting! Naturally, you might be wondering how to prepare so you feel confident, relaxed, and totally ready to shine.
We’ve got you covered with a few essential tips to help you arrive feeling your best.
💁♀️ Tip 1: Hair – Keep It Clean, But Not Too Fresh
Your session includes full professional hair styling, so to help your style hold beautifully, we recommend arriving with hair that’s clean, but not freshly washed that day.
Here’s our golden rule:
- If you wash daily: wash it the day before
- If your hair lasts longer between washes: wash it 2–3 days before
- Super clean hair can be slippery and fluffy, making it harder to style. We’ll take care of the glam, you just bring the prep!
👙 Tip 2: Lingerie – Bring Variety That Feels Like You
Bring 3-4 outfit options so we can choose pieces that match your body and our sets beautifully. Your photographer will chat with you during makeup to finalise your looks.
What we love:
- At least two bodysuits – flattering and timeless
- Lingerie in black, white, pastels, jewel tones
- Items that hold meaning (a partner’s shirt, a favourite robe)
Avoid: neon colours and shiny fabrics — they don’t photograph as well. Once you book, we’ll send you a full prep guide to make wardrobe planning super easy.
💅 Tip 3: Nails – Don’t Forget the Details
Hands feature in almost every image, so your nails matter! We recommend soft, neutral tones that won’t clash with your outfits.
👉 Book your manicure and pedicure the day ot two before your session (unless you’re getting shellac or acrylics).
✨ Bonus Tips for Feeling and Looking Your Best:
- Hydrate: Drink 2L of water daily in the week leading up to your session
- Eat breakfast: You’ll need energy for posing and confidence!
- Avoid: Salty, processed, or sugary foods that can cause bloating the night before
