A Boudoir photo shoot can look like a number of things, but most importantly it will be catered to you and what you want out of your Boudoir session. At ELI Boudoir, you will have 3 outfits/looks at minimum and 1.5-2 hours. I know a 2 hour Boudoir shoot sounds like a long time, but once we start the time will fly back. 2 hours ensures that we are never rushed and that we can get every photograph we are after. You will walk into your photoshoot a little nervous, and leave confident with a pep in your step. The outfits you choose are totally up to you, but of course I will provide guidance and can help suggest stores to buy lingerie at! I love being a stylist for my clients as well as a photographer.

The best outfit is dependent on you and what makes you feel confident. Across the board, high-waisted panties are more flattering than low-waisted panties. I am a big fan of bodysuits and think they are stunning on everybody. You do not have to wear lingerie to your Boudoir shoot. The only outfit requirement is that you feel confident and powerful in it. I have clients who bring dresses, blazers, jeans, baggy shirts, skirts, and anything in-between.

There are no strict rules, but the linked blog post has some good guidelines. My recommendation is to try every piece of lingerie on and think about what parts of your body you want to accentuate.

Let’s do it. Outdoor Boudoir photoshoots is one of my favorite kind of shoots. Outdoor Boudoir in Los Angeles is an amazing option. We have the beach and mountainous locations. So, any outdoor boudoir look you are after we can find. Connecting with yourself while in nature is such an empowering feeling.

A Boudoir photoshoot allows you to connect with yourself on a deeper level. Very few of us, get to see ourselves in this light and step into our power. Obviously, Boudoir is an extremely vulnerable, intimate experience. Even if you do not believe that you will walk away from your Boudoir photoshoot more confident, it will. I firmly believe, Boudoir is something that all women should do at least once in their life. It just requires you to take a chance and trust that your Boudoir photographer knows what they are doing. The most important thing is to work with a photographer who makes you feel comfortable.
