Everything you need to know to feel confident, prepared, and ready to glow!
Hey, gorgeous! 💖 Your boudoir session is right around the corner, and I cannot wait to create something magical with you! To make sure you feel 100% ready for your session, I’ve put together this 10-step guide to help you prep like a pro.
Follow these steps, and you’ll show up feeling confident, relaxed, and glowing! ✨

1️⃣ Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! 💦
Start drinking plenty of water at least a week before your session. Hydrated skin looks smoother, more radiant, and photographs beautifully! Plus, drinking water helps with flexibility—which you’ll appreciate when we’re working those sexy poses! 😉
💡 Pro Tip: Cut back on salty foods & alcohol 24-48 hours before your session to reduce bloating and keep your skin looking fresh!
2️⃣ Moisturize & Exfoliate for Glowing Skin ✨
Soft, smooth skin makes a huge difference in photos! Exfoliate your body 2-3 days before your session and moisturize daily, especially after showering.
🚫 Avoid: Self-tanners, spray tans, or trying new skincare products right before your session—uneven color, streaks, or skin irritation can be difficult to edit!
3️⃣ Stretch! Boudoir = Sexy Yoga 🧘♀️
Boudoir posing is a full-body workout! You’ll be bending, arching, and twisting in ways you might not be used to, so start stretching daily leading up to your session.
💡 Pro Tip: Focus on backbends, hip openers, and hamstring stretches—your body will thank you!
4️⃣ Grooming: Plan Ahead! ✂️
If you wax, do it at least 5 days before to allow any irritation to subside. If you shave, do it the night before and exfoliate to avoid razor bumps.
🚨 VERY Important: If you plan to get your hair colored or touched up, do it at least a week in advance in case adjustments are needed. Avoid drastic changes right before your session!
5️⃣ Nails: Express Yourself! 💅
Your hands will be in many shots, so make sure your nails look polished and well-groomed. Whether you prefer neutral tones, gem colors, or bold designs, go with something that makes you feel fabulous!
🚫 Avoid: Chipped polish! If you don’t want a manicure, clean, filed nails are totally fine!
6️⃣ Plan Your Wardrobe (But Don’t Stress!) 👗
You have access to my Client Closet (XS-4X) plus a selection of body chains and accessories—but if you bring your own lingerie, make sure it fits well and makes you feel amazing!
✔️ Bring a nude & black seamless thong (required for Client Closet use!)
✔️ Bring any favorite outfits, jewelry, or accessories that feel authentically you.
✔️ If bringing stockings, make sure they fit well & don’t dig in.
🚨 Check for fit & comfort ahead of time! Wear your pieces around the house to get comfortable moving in them.
7️⃣ Arrive With a Fresh Face & Dry Hair 💄
Your professional hair & makeup is included in your session—so come with:
✔️ A fresh, clean, and moisturized face (no makeup, no SPF, no treatments!)
✔️ Freshly washed & completely dry hair (wet/damp hair cannot be styled!)
8️⃣ Wear Loose Clothing to Your Session 👚
To avoid marks on your skin:
✔️ Wear loose, comfy clothing (think PJs, sweats, or a robe).
✔️ Skip the underwire bra, socks, or tight pants before your session.
✔️ Winter sessions? We’ll provide slippers—avoid wearing socks to prevent marks!
💡 Pro Tip: Bring an outfit to change into after your session if you want to dress up for the rest of your day!
9️⃣ Mindset: Get in the Right Headspace! 💖
Feeling nervous? Totally normal. But I promise, you’re going to have an incredible time! Leading up to your session:
✔️ Hype yourself up! Stand in the mirror and say: “I am sexy, I am powerful, I am a damn masterpiece!”
✔️ Play your favorite music. Dance around. Feel yourself!
✔️ Trust the process. I will guide you every step of the way—you don’t need to know how to pose!
🔟 Get Ready for the Ultimate Confidence Boost! 🚀
