Boots On, Layers Off! ~ Boudoir Photography ~ Vancouver, WA

Boots On, Layers Off! ~ Boudoir Photography ~ Vancouver, WA

Before we jump into this next post... Take a moment to think about your own personal style! How would your own personal style translate to a boudoir setting?

If you have a darker, alternative style, you can always add a strappy harness on top of your lingerie to make your boudoir look feel more personalized to you. Plus, you can consider a leather top or corset to really add a gothic feel.

If you have a retro style, you can add classic Mary Jane pumps that will complement modern lingerie pieces just as well as they complement a vintage look! To take your retro outfit to the next level, include a garter belt with stockings or even thrifted, antique jewelry.

No matter what your personal style is... there’s always a way to bring elements of your style into your boudoir session! I’m always happy to talk to my clients and help you decide which of the pieces in your closet would translate well to a photography shoot.

Studio Set Series: The Rose Petal Set ~ Boudoir Photography ~ Vancouver, WA

Studio Set Series: The Rose Petal Set ~ Boudoir Photography ~ Vancouver, WA

When it comes to all of the different sets that I’ve highlighted in my Studio Set Series… I can definitely say that ALL of them were a labor of love!

For the living room set… I took time to choose a couch and blanket that would match my floral wall, picked out plants, and even shopped for boudoir-related books to go on the shelves. For the fireplace set… I searched until I found the perfect mantle on Facebook Marketplace!

I put SO much hard work into each of my studio sets, truly making them a labor of love… but once they were set up, they were totally set up!

When it comes to my rose petal set, though, it’s a totally different story! Not only did the rose petals take forever to prepare when I first bought them... It takes a lot of effort to snap the “perfect” shot as the petals fall and to clean everything up, too.

Gothic and Glowing! ~ Boudoir Photography: Build Your Own Session ~ Vancouver, WA

Before we jump into today’s post, take just a minute to imagine the ultimate themed boudoir session…

To give you some ideas… Think a session with a vintage theme and retro hair, makeup, and styling! Or a session with a masquerade theme that features a mask as an accessory to a sexy satin slip dress!

Now that you have the idea for your themed shoot, think about how much a session like this might cost… What may surprise you is that you can have a beautiful themed session on a budget… and I promise, it truly is budget friendly!

After creating my recent “Build Your Own” Session special… I realized there was a need for an a la carte boudoir menu for my clients with varying budgets, so I made it happen. (To see these a la carte options for yourself, check out my consultation guide!) This new menu allows you to add extra studio sets and services to your boudoir experience, or you can choose to keep it minimal.
