Have you thought about giving a holiday boudoir photo to your loved one? As a boudoir photographer, you will be amazed at how many clients I have photographed for their own holiday boudoir gift!
Boudoir for the holidays? Oh yes!
If you are NOT familiar, boudoir is different from other niches because it is more intimate. You will be more vulnerable and forced to see yourself in a way that other photographic experiences cannot compare.
This often leads to loving yourself in a new and uncritical way. Suddenly, confidence is boosted and body criticism becomes a distant memory.
Things to Know BEFORE Booking a Boudoir for the Holidays
The best boudoir experiences include professional make-up and hairstyling, access to a client’s wardrobe, and a fabulous shoot with lots of wardrobe changes.
Costs vary by your region but the entire experience including mementos can cost anywhere from $500 to over $5000 depending on options.
Find your best Boudoir Photographer
When searching For the perfect photographer, be sure to read reviews, ask questions, and get it all in advance so there are no surprises.
Many photographers offer fun and flirty shoots for couples, so this can be a gift for both you AND your partner!
Boudoir photographers often have a special Facebook group that you can join; do it!
Rate their personality! Are they happy? Do they seem genuine? How do they respond to others?
You’ll quickly determine if you have a ‘vibration’ with them when posing in your panties!
What to wear to your holiday Boudoir photo shoot
Whether you love lingerie or don’t, there’s always the perfect piece in everyone’s wardrobe.
If you’re more of a tomboy, a tank top and men’s shorts will help you show off your full glory! Maybe you’re feminine and flirty? Mesh socks and heels may be all it takes to show off your unrivaled “boldness”!
Your photographer should be willing to provide resources based on your style and budget.
If all else fails, see the great thing plus size underwear options on TCF!
Your final products and gifts
Most photographers sell some sort of luxury album featuring lush fabrics and vibrant pages. Ask about product prices so you have an idea of the full cost of the experience.
Ask your photographer if they offer any kind of upfront plan so you can make small payments over time if needed.
Don’t assume digital downloads are included with your products. Most photographers will add these for an additional fee or provide them with a higher priced product collection.
Expect to receive your great products two to six weeks after your boudoir session.
There are plenty of gift ideas out there, but few will impact as many aspects of your life as a boudoir photo shoot during the holidays.
One shoot boudoir will boost your confidence, help you rediscover your sensuality, and empower you for your next phase of strength!
