5 Secrets to Help Boost Confidence on the Day of the Boudoir Shoot
Because of its level of intimacy, the day of your Boudoir shoot can come with a lot of anxiety and apprehension, which is normal. The idea of stripping down to your panties in front of someone other than your significant other or yourself in the mirror can be enough to cause a stomach full of butterflies, but we’ve come up with 5 awesome tips to help boost your confidence on Boudoir shooting day.
1. Make sure you’re working with an experienced professional. A good, seasoned photographer will work with you before the shoot begins to ensure you know exactly what is going to be happening, and that you are one hundred percent comfortable with everything. If you take a chance on a newbie, you may not get the results you want and it could be an awkward experience for both of you.
2. Get your hair and makeup professionally styled. It doesn’t matter how many beauty videos you’ve watched on Youtube – if you want to feel your best, let someone who has graduated cosmetology school style you up. Something as small as smudged eyeliner can be enough to devastate you once your photos are developed, and a professional stylist has the tools to ensure things like that won’t happen.
3. Select the wardrobe that makes you feel like a bombshell. Don’t necessarily go with what you think is the most popular Boudoir attire – go with what you love the most. That one is simple. And if you’re stuck, bring multiple outfits and let your photographer and stylist help you choose.
4. Create a Boudoir playlist. Pick songs that evoke a wide variety of emotions, from your striptease tune to your favorite party song to karaoke with your girlfriends. Pick songs that will pump you up and will help you feel comfortable and loose during your shoot.
5. This one may seem silly, but we swear it works – ask your photographer to have a fan going during your shoot for Beyonce-style hair blowing! Once it starts going, you may start off feeling a bit silly acting glam, but once you get in the mood you’ll realize just how fun it is to have your big sexy hairy flowing behind you.
