A Valentine's Day Sexy Gift Idea - Boudoir Shoot

I love Valentine's Day, it's one of my favorite times of the year! Lots of love, romance, fun, great date night plans. Also, flirty fun surprises, and sexy little gifts! Why, not show your most sensual side and plan to have a Boudoir Shoot! These pictures will bring out your inner sexy. Make it a sweet, flirty, and hot little project! What a perfect gift idea for your significant other ( your sweet Valentine)! 


Boudoir photography is a genre of photography that involves female subjects in sexually suggestive or sensual poses. It is distinct from erotic photography in its emphasis on the aesthetic qualities of the subject and the craftsmanship of the photographic process over the sexually stimulating nature of the image.

Just think about how fun it will be to plan your overall look. Your hair, nails, sexy lingerie, fish net and lace stockings, thigh highs, long pearl necklaces, and other accessories, thongs, sexy little props, boots, stilettos, and more! 

Here's 3 Quick Steps of how to prepare for a Boudoir Shoot: 

1) Book a photographer that has experience in shooting Boudoir shoots. Schedule a consultation, and talk about your ideas, look, the number of outfit changes, location, ect...bring pictures for inspirational purposes. Have fun talking about your photo shoot!

2) Go Shopping - think about what colors work best against your skin tone, and also what exactly you want to wear! Lingerie of course! But get creative perhaps maybe you want to be covered by a satin sheet only, maybe long pearl draping across you w/ sexy lingerie on. Go shop for sexy shoes! Have at least 3 different looks. Most of all buy something that makes you feel beautiful! 

3) Book a professional hair stylist, and make-up artist. You want to look your best in the photos. Get pampered (book a mani/pedicure Appt). Make it a full day of beauty, exfoilate your skin, or do a relaxing bath soak. Walk into the Boudoir shoot feeling confident, pretty, and ready to show your sensual sexy side! 

Lastly, I highly recommend the photographer organizes a photo book with your favorite images. Also, if you are giving the photo book away as a gift, or have one of the photos placed on canvas, trust that your photographer will deliver the best product ( it's worth the extra cost)! 

Have an amazing shoot! 

Have a Sweet Day,
