Boudoir Photography Questions
SLC, UT Boudoir Photo Shoot FAQs
Boudoir is directly tied to your self-esteem so it's critical that you feel comfortable with the boudoir photographer you choose. We promise you're in good hands, but we know how many questions there are when you're thinking of a session!
Quick Answers to Common Fears & Myths
-
→ Confidence is built during the session, not before! We’ll guide you every step of the way.
-
→ No worries! We direct every movement, so all you have to do is show up and have fun.
-
→ Absolutely not! Wear whatever makes you feel sexy—whether it’s an oversized sweater, a bodysuit, or nothing at all.
-
→ Only with your permission! Every session is 100% private unless you sign a model release.
-
→ Nope! Boudoir is about celebrating yourself right now, exactly as you are. We use expert posing, lighting, and angles to highlight your natural beauty.
-
→ Absolutely not! Boudoir is for every woman, at every stage of life. Whether you’re in your 20s, 40s, 60s, or beyond—confidence is timeless.
-
→ No one walks in knowing how to pose, and that’s why we guide you every step of the way. Every woman you see in our portfolio thought the same thing before their session!
-
→ It’s completely normal to feel nervous at first, but within minutes, you’ll be laughing, having fun, and feeling like a goddess—our team makes sure of it!
-
→ Your privacy is our priority! Your images are 100% private unless you choose to sign a model release. Many clients keep their photos just for themselves (or a lucky someone).
What if I don't look like your models?
We do not shoot models. All the women you see on our pages are every day women, not models! We pose you from head to toe, coach your facial expressions, and even tell you how to breathe. That will make you look like a supermodel, and better yet, feel like a super model!
What should I wear?
This is probably the most popular question we receive and the answer is simple. Wear whatever you feel unstoppable in. Our style is cozy, beautiful, and classy. We want your images to represent you, so if a bodysuit, oversized sweater, cropped sweatshirt and high-waist panties is more you, then let's rock that for your shoot! If a robe, bondage wear, strappy goodness, leather, chains is more you, then baby, let's roll in those.
Most clients opt for a lingerie set, a cozy set, or "the white sheet" (our absolute favorite to shoot!) during their session. Don't stress too much about wardrobe. We could spend an entire hour shooting a client with no other wardrobe than the bed sheets, the shower, or the bath tub, and they are always stunning.
Once you've completed the booking process, you will receive a prep guide with a list of ideas. You also have the option to wear items from the Blushed Babe Boudie closet.
