Don’t worry, we’ve got you! I’m here to guide you with tips that’ll make you feel like a goddess in front of the camera. And hey, worst case—just bring a smile and maybe a slouchy sweater.

BODYSUITS
For a go-to look that’s both effortlessly flattering and undeniably chic, bodysuits and rompers are where it’s at! These one-piece wonders hug your body in all the right places, giving you the perfect balance of curves and coverage. If you're not totally sold on showing off your tummy in your boudoir photos, a bodysuit or romper is an elegant choice that still brings the heat—without showing too much. Whether you’re channeling your inner goddess or just looking for something that feels comfortable yet seductive, these outfits have you covered... quite literally!
WHERE TO SHOP
CLASSIC
For a classic boudoir vibe, nothing beats the elegance of a matching bra and panty set, with the option to elevate the look by adding a garter belt and thigh-high stockings. Slip into your favorite heels to complete the outfit.
This is a go-to recommendation for many of my clients because it perfectly balances sexy and sophisticated. It's a timeless choice that has remained iconic through the years, giving a nod to vintage glam while staying effortlessly chic.
WHERE TO SHOP
Bra & Panty Set
T-Shirt or
Cozy Sweater
Not really a lingerie person? No problem!
For a more laid-back, yet irresistibly chic look, bring along your favorite t-shirt or sweater, Pair it with a delicate lace bra—or nothing at all. Add simple bottoms or go without, and complete the cozy vibe with over-the-knee leg warmers. It’s the perfect, comfy style you'll want to slip into again for your next lazy weekend at home.
