tips for preparing for your boudoir photo shoot

boudoir photography by Shea Mayberry

I was so excited to work with Lauren again recently on a boudoir shoot in this awesome urban loft space in downtown Dallas. She is such a pro and always looks stunning! As an NPC bikini competitor she has tons of experience prepping for photo shoots and appearances where she has to look her best. So I took the opportunity to ask her if she’d share her secret for always looking great.

“I always make sure I have my nails done, have my outfits put together, and eat right to make sure I’m always looking my best,” says Lauren. She knows that details matter! Great styling is a combination of preparation like getting that mani-pedi, the right wardrobe, and details such as accessories and shoes. When you’re getting professional portraits taken, a little extra planning and prep goes a long way to making your photos really sparkle. And, of course, always make sure to have FUN, she says. I agree completely because when you’re having fun it shows!

I ask Lauren what she enjoyed most about doing a boudoir shoot and I love her answer! “I love how boudoir shoots make you feel sexy, confident and beautiful. I think every woman should do a boudoir shoot. You leave feeling empowered and on top of the world.”

Thanks so much, Lauren, for giving us your top tips on how to prepare for a boudoir photo shoot and look your best in your skivvies!
