What to bring to your session at The Studio SJ

So, you’ve booked your first boudoir session at The Studio SJ! This exciting step towards embracing your confidence and capturing your beauty will be a memorable experience. But if you’re wondering what to bring to ensure you feel prepared and empowered, we’ve got you covered. Here are some key essentials to help you get ready for your luxury boudoir photoshoot.

1. Lingerie That Makes You Feel Gorgeous

When it comes to boudoir photography, lingerie plays a huge role in showcasing your unique beauty. Bring pieces that make you feel confident and sexy. Consider a variety of options, such as:

  • Lace Bodysuits: These offer a beautiful blend of elegance and sensuality.

  • Matching Bra and Panty Sets: Choose colors and styles that enhance your skin tone and body shape.

  • Silk Robes or Kimonos: Perfect for layering or creating a soft, sultry look.

  • Corsets or Bustiers: These are classic boudoir staples that highlight your curves.

  • Something Personal: Perhaps a sentimental piece, like your partner's shirt, your wedding veil, or a vintage item that has special meaning.

 

2. Accessories to Elevate Your Look

Accessories can add that extra touch of glamour to your boudoir shoot. Here are a few suggestions:

  • Heels: A pair of high heels can elongate your legs and add a seductive vibe.

  • Jewelry: Think statement pieces like a chunky necklace, delicate pearls, or your favorite earrings. Just make sure they complement your outfits.

  • Stockings or Garter Belts: These can elevate any lingerie set for a more playful, sultry look.

​

3. Outfits for Different Moods

Aside from lingerie, feel free to bring outfits that fit different moods or themes. Boudoir is about showcasing your personality and style. You could bring:

  • Oversized Sweaters or Cardigans: For a cozy, relaxed look.

  • Casual Attire: A simple tank top, off-the-shoulder sweater, or your favorite jeans can be incredibly sensual.

  • Statement Pieces: Whether it's a leather jacket, an elegant gown, or a chic slip dress, having a variety of outfits can help create different vibes throughout the session.

​

4. Your Favorite Fragrance

Scent can evoke emotions and enhance your confidence. Before your session, spritz on your favorite perfume for a boost. Plus, smelling great can help you relax and feel more at ease.

​

5. Makeup Touch-Up Kit

Although The Studio SJ offers professional hair and makeup services, it’s always a good idea to bring a touch-up kit. Consider packing the following:

  • Lipstick or lip gloss

  • Powder or blotting papers for shine control

  • Makeup remover wipes for any smudges

  • A hairbrush or comb

​

6. Confidence and an Open Mind

Beyond physical items, the most important thing to bring to your boudoir session is your confidence. This is your time to shine, so embrace your body, own your beauty, and trust the process. Keep an open mind and allow yourself to relax and enjoy every moment!

​

Final Tips:

  • Prepare Ahead: Get a good night’s sleep, hydrate, and moisturize your skin beforehand.

  • Bring Extras: Pack more lingerie and accessories than you think you’ll need so you can switch up looks during the session.

  • Don’t Forget the Details: Well-manicured nails, moisturized skin, and smooth hair will add to the polished look of your final images.

Your boudoir session at The Studio SJ is designed to celebrate your beauty, confidence, and individuality. With the right wardrobe and mindset, you’ll feel empowered and leave with stunning images that capture the best version of yourself. Ready to slay your session? Let’s make some magic!
