Hey Boudie!

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably spent countless hours browsing the internet, getting lost on all the different websites trying to narrow down ideas for your own session. While choosing the right lingerie can be downright overwhelming, I can promise you - it doesn't have to be a terrifying experience. Like, I’m literally obsessed with shopping for lingerie now. And I’m here to tell you - once you start…you’re never gonna wanna stop haha! With that said, HOW do you choose the right lingerie when there are SO many different freaking options out there? Well, let me tell you. The right lingerie can help accentuate your curves, flatter your body, and add a touch of glamour to your images. So how can you choose the right lingerie for your session?

Consider the style of the shoot

Before you start shopping for lingerie, consider the style of the session you want. Do you want something sexy and sultry or soft and romantic? Do you want to wear something bold and daring or something classic and elegant? Your vision will help you narrow down your choices and find lingerie that fits the mood.

Choose lingerie that flatters your body type

When it comes to lingerie, there is no one-size-fits-all. Everyone's body is unique, and it's important to choose lingerie that flatters your body type. If you have a curvy figure, consider lingerie that has some type of cut out or band around the waist to accentuate your curves. If you have a small bust, you could consider lingerie with padded cups or a push-up bra to enhance your cleavage- we actually recommend lingerie without support since we won't have gapping or extra fabric when we are posing you. . We also send out a super extensive wardrobe guide that will help you to choose the absolute right pieces for your body. And seriously, don’t be afraid to venture out and try new things! SO many of my clients end up with a client closet piece they NEVER would have chosen themselves… and it ends up being their favorite one.

Consider the color

The color of your lingerie can absolutely set the tone for your boudoir shoot. Black lingerie is always a classic choice, but don't be afraid to experiment with other colors. Red lingerie is a bold and sensual choice, while pastel colors can create a soft and romantic look. And if you're feeling bold and vibrant? Why not try stunning jewel tones like jade or amethyst, or some neons? Go with a color that compliments your skin tone and makes you feel confident.

Choose lingerie that makes you feel comfortable

While it's important to choose lingerie that looks good, it's equally important to choose lingerie that makes you feel comfortable. You want to feel confident and at ease during your boudoir shoot, and uncomfortable lingerie can be a distraction. Choose lingerie that fits well and feels comfortable against your skin.

Don't forget about the details

The details of your lingerie can make ALLLLLLLLL the difference in your boudoir photos. Consider lingerie with lace, embroidery, or other embellishments to add texture and depth to your images. Accessories like stockings, garters, and heels can also add a touch of glamor to your look!

Try on different styles

Don't be afraid to try on different styles of lingerie. You might be surprised by what looks good on you. If you're unsure about what to wear, consider scheduling a wardrobe consultation! You can try on our different client closet items and pick what you like the best.

While it isn't a make or break moment, choosing the right lingerie for your session is probably one of the most important aspects of planning! Consider the vision we’re going for, choose colors that make your heart happy, and don’t be afraid to try new things.
