1. Choose Your Boudoir Outfits

When it comes to your boudoir photoshoot, your lingerie outfits are one of the most important aspects to plan carefully for. Pick out clothing and lingerie that makes you feel sexy and confident. If you need help choosing the perfect outfits for your shoot, you will receive a free lingerie guide after booking your boudoir shoot that you can use as a reference. We will also provide hair and makeup services to help bring your look to the next level.


2. Determine Your Comfort Level

It’s important to determine your comfort level before your boudoir photoshoot. If you’re feeling nervous, take some time to think about the poses you’d like to do and talk to Argentina, your photographer, about what to expect. We’re here to make sure you feel safe and comfortable during your session.


3. Practice Posing

Posing for a boudoir photoshoot can be a bit daunting, especially if it’s your first time. To help you feel more confident, practice posing in front of a mirror before your session. This will help you get comfortable with different poses and feel more confident in front of the camera. However, at your boudoir session, you will receive full guidance to nail each pose like a model so, don't worry and just trust your photographer.


4. Take Care of Yourself

It’s important to take care of yourself before your boudoir photoshoot. Get plenty of rest, drink plenty of water, and avoid any activities that may leave you feeling sore the day of your shoot. Make sure to also wear loose fitting clothing and avoid anything that may leave marks on your skin.


5. Ask Questions

If you have any questions before your boudoir photoshoot, don’t hesitate to ask. Our team is happy to answer any questions and address any concerns you may have. We want to make sure you feel prepared and confident when you arrive for your session.

6. Bring Props

Bringing props to your boudoir photoshoot can add an extra layer of fun and creativity. You can bring items such as scarves, hats, jewelry, and other items that make you feel confident, our favorite is a man's shirt, so bring your husband's shirt to give him a great surprise with a picture of you wearing it!. This can help you create unique and beautiful compositions with your photographer.


7. Take a Moment to Yourself

Take some time to yourself before your boudoir photoshoot to relax and get into the right frame of mind. Listen to your favorite music at your session, just connect your phone to our Bluetooth speaker, take a relaxing bath the day before, or do some yoga or breathing meditation. This can help you get in the right headspace and feel more confident during your session.


8. Have Fun!

Your boudoir photoshoot should be a fun and empowering experience. Don’t be afraid to let loose and have a good time. Listen to your favorite music, dance around, and let your personality shine through. Argentina provides a very self environment and she is a master at making women feel at ease and relaxed.


9. Use Good Lighting

Good lighting is key when it comes to boudoir photography. At our private boudoir studio in Austin, TX, we use natural light to avoid harsh overhead lighting, smooth skin naturally and produce creamy skin tones. This will help create beautiful, natural-looking photos that need little or no retouching.


10. Find Inspiration

Look for inspiration in magazines, Pinterest, or Instagram for boudoir hair and makeup ideas as well as the best lingerie for your body type. You will be provided with a lingerie guide to shop for your boudoir shoot.
