Your Boudoir Photography Experience
“Not just a photoshoot, a journey into confidence and self-expression”
This is not your everyday family portrait shoot, it’s something extraordinary. For many of our clients, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that celebrates sensuality, confidence, and self-expression.
Before the Photoshoot
What is Boudoir Photography?
Boudoir photography is more than a photoshoot — it’s a transformative experience designed to help you feel sexy, confident, and empowered. At Boudoir Fusion Photography, we tailor your session to celebrate your beauty in the most authentic, artistic way possible.
How Do I Prepare?
After you book, we’ll guide you through everything — from what to wear and how to prep, to calming nerves and choosing your style. You’ll even receive a personalised pre-shoot consultation to help you feel confident and camera-ready.
What Should I Bring?
Pack lingerie sets, high heels, favourite jewellery, and personal touches like your partner’s shirt or something sentimental. We also provide corsets, stockings, shoes, and more at the studio.
On the Day
What Happens When I Arrive?
You’ll be welcomed into our luxurious studio space and introduced to your stylist and photographer. The vibe is relaxed and private, so you’ll settle in before we begin hair, makeup, and styling.
Feeling Nervous?
Totally normal. We’ve worked with hundreds of first-time clients, and our team will guide you through every pose, angle, and expression — making sure you feel safe, confident, and even a little sexy.
Can I Do Different Looks?
Absolutely. Based on your chosen package, you can switch lingerie sets, themes, or even styling mid-shoot. Want to mix boudoir with nude or erotic? This is your time , we’ll help make it magical.
After the Photoshoot
How Do I View My Photos?
You’ll preview your images immediately after your session. We’ll show you a selection of images, and you’ll choose your favourites for editing and final delivery.
What Editing Do You Offer?
Think of our editing as a soft whisper, not a shout; we smooth skin, gently contour, ease away stretch marks, and add just the right touch of polish. But here’s the secret: we never change you. We simply enhance the beauty that’s already there. Want a sneak peek of what to expect? Wander through our galleries; your images will have that same dreamy, confident, magazine-worthy glow.
How Will I Receive My Images?
All of your images will be delivered digitally through a private WeTransfer link. The number of images you receive depends on the package you selected. If you would like to keep all of your images, you can purchase the entire unedited gallery as high quality JPEG files.
Can I Print or Display My Images?
Absolutely. You have several beautiful ways to showcase your portraits. Choose from elegant wall art including framed prints and canvas, or select a handcrafted coffee table book. For a more intimate keepsake, our custom designed PhotoBox holds your favourite prints in a way that feels personal, artistic, and unforgettable.
Are My Images Private?
Yes. Your images are 100% private unless you give us written permission to share. We respect your boundaries and protect your privacy at every step.
Makeup
Arrive with a clean face. Our professional team will create a look that suits your style and works beautifully under studio lights.
Wardrobe
Bring a variety: lingerie sets, robes, heels, jewellery, and something personal. We’ll help you mix and match with studio options too.
Hair
Arriving with clean, dry hair is best, preferably wash the nigh before. We’ll style it to add volume and drama; sleek or curled, your call.
Nails
Keep nails polished — neutral, French tip, or bold red always works. Neat nails make a big difference in close-ups.
Moisturise
Hydrated skin glows under lights. Drink water and apply moisturiser the night before and morning of your session.
Heels & Extras
Bring heels, boots, stockings, veils, or props; even a tie or shirt from your partner. These add personal flair.
Before and After
Take a look at a few before and after moments where a touch of makeup, the right lighting, thoughtful posing, and gentle editing come together to reveal pure magic.
Your Pre-Shoot Consultation
Every successful boudoir experience starts with understanding your vision. At Boudoir Fusion Photography, our pre-meeting is designed to help you feel completely at ease, prepare your outfits, and ask any lingering questions.
Whether it’s in person, over the phone, or online; your pre-consultation ensures we align your comfort level, style preferences, and goals. It’s your time to connect, explore ideas, and get excited for your empowering experience.
I haven’t felt this good in forever! Being a heavy girl that always feels self conscious I stepped out of my comfort zone today. Peter from Boudoir Fusion Photography is so professional and he made me feel so comfortable and relaxed.
I had such an amazing time shooting with Peter. He’s a cool, fun guy. He’s so professional he made me feel comfortable and relaxed. It was a liberating experience and boosted my confidence.
If you want to see yourself the way your loved ones do, book yourself in for a shoot. This was the biggest self esteem boost I could have received. Amazing photos and incredibly talented photographer. I cannot wait for my next shoot.
A little preparation goes a long way. These refined tips will ensure your confidence shines from the moment you arrive.
Outfits:
For Taste of Boudoir sessions, bring 1 outfit.
For Simply Boudoir, bring 2 outfits.
For Classic Boudoir and Everything Boudoir packages, bring 10–15 outfit options.
Choose pieces that make you feel beautiful, strong, and sensual.
Accessories:
Include heels, lingerie sets, stockings, garters, robes, oversized sweaters, jewellery, and sentimental items like a partner’s shirt to add a personal touch.
Beauty Essentials:
Pack moisturiser, extra makeup for touch-ups, a hairbrush, bobby pins, and hair ties to keep your look fresh between outfit changes.
Snacks and Hydration:
Bring water and light snacks to stay energised. We also have refreshments available in the studio for your comfort.
Waxing and Shaving:
If you prefer a smooth finish, plan hair removal a few days ahead to allow your skin time to calm. Embrace a natural look if you prefer — this is your session, your rules.
Tanning:
A tan is not necessary. If you do tan, aim for an even, natural glow and avoid last-minute sprays or tanning beds to prevent uneven tones.
Hair Preparation:
Clean, blow-dried hair photographs with beautiful shine. Styled hair enhances your final look. Feel free to use our studio straighteners or curlers for last touches.
Feet and Nails:
Well-groomed hands and feet complete your look. Choose neutral polish, bold shades, or French tips — whatever makes you feel elegant and empowered.
Hydration and Moisturising:
Hydrate well in the days leading up to your session. Moisturise your skin the night before and morning of to create a natural, luminous glow.
Diet and Bloating:
Eat light, healthy meals the day before and morning of your session. Avoid salty and heavy foods. Hydration is key to feeling energised and confident.
Clothing and Lines:
Wear loose clothing on the day to avoid elastic imprints. Prepare your chosen outfits the night before and remove all tags.
Dry Body Brushing:
For radiant skin, consider dry body brushing daily in the weeks before your shoot. Start at your feet and move upward using circular motions.
Four Weeks Before:
Start planning your shoot style — romantic, fierce, playful — and shop early for outfits and accessories to suit your vision.
One Week Before:
Finalise your wardrobe choices, remove garment tags, book a manicure and pedicure, and continue hydrating and moisturising daily.
Three to Five Days Before:
Shave, wax, or exfoliate as needed. Keep up with water intake and moisturising for radiant, fresh skin.
The Night Before:
Pack your boudoir bag. Avoid salty foods and alcohol. Sleep well — a refreshed glow is your best beauty secret.
On the Day:
Arrive relaxed and ready. Eat a light meal, dress in loose, comfortable clothing, and allow extra travel time so you start your experience stress-free.
Confidence is Key:
Practise a few smiles and poses in the mirror the night before. Laugh, flirt, be playful — true confidence is the most powerful accessory you can wear.
What to Wear for Your Boudoir Photography Experience
What you wear — or choose not to wear — plays a powerful role in the visual story we’ll create together. Whether you’re planning a classic boudoir session, embracing the beauty of artistic nudity, or exploring bold erotic expression, your wardrobe sets the tone. This is about curating a look that feels unapologetically you.
Boudoir: Classic, Elegant, and Alluring
Boudoir photography celebrates intimacy and suggestion. Choose pieces like lace bras, matching panties, corsets, silk slips, bodysuits, garters, robes, and thigh-high stockings. Add heels, jewellery, or a crisp white shirt to personalise your set.
Nude & Implied Nude: Understated Power
These styles focus on form, emotion, and artistry. Implied nude might include soft fabrics or sheer veils. Full nude allows us to capture your natural beauty in its most raw and elegant form. Bring a robe, nude lingerie for transitions, and moisturise in advance for a healthy glow.
Erotic & Adult: Bold, Intimate, Unapologetic
Erotic shoots explore desire and fantasy. Outfits might include open lingerie, body chains, latex, harnesses, or accessories like collars and cuffs. Adult themes can include props or toys — always discussed beforehand and approached with care.
Final Preparation Tips
- Bring more than you think you’ll need — variety allows spontaneity.
- Remove all clothing tags ahead of time.
- Pack discreetly the day before your session.
- Try on everything beforehand to ensure fit and comfort.
The Secret Language of Colour
Every colour you choose brings emotion into the frame. Whether you’re styling your lingerie, selecting heels, or applying lipstick, your colour palette subtly shapes the mood of your session:
- Red: Passion, confidence, and seduction — for bold, commanding visuals.
- Black: Power, elegance, and mystique — always flattering and timeless.
- Ivory & White: Innocence, softness, and new beginnings — ideal for bridal or classic looks.
- Blush & Pinks: Romance, sweetness, and flirtation — gentle and feminine.
- Sage Green: Calm, renewal, and organic sensuality — grounding and unique.
- Amethyst & Violet: Creativity, sensuality, and spiritual depth — for artistic imagery with edge.
Choose tones that reflect your mood or awaken something within — and if you’re unsure, we’re here to help. Styling guidance is part of every session, and together we’ll find the look that best reveals your story.
Makeup
Makeup That Elevates, Not Masks
Professional makeup is the first step in your transformation, not to hide who you are, but to enhance what already makes you captivating.
Your Look, Your Style: Whether you prefer a natural glow or a bold, smoky finish, your makeup look will be tailored to match your personal aesthetic and the style of your session.
Studio-Ready Application: We use only high-quality products that work beautifully under professional lighting, avoiding any caking, shine, or unwanted texture.
The Finishing Touch: From matte foundations to subtly glossy lips, each product is selected to enhance your natural features and elevate the final images.
Eyes That Captivate: False lashes and layered shadow tones add intensity and definition to your eyes, the true focal point of every portrait.
Bring Your Own Artist (Optional): You’re welcome to bring a personal makeup artist, as long as they’re familiar with makeup for professional photography sessions.
Want a Second Look? For those who want a change during the shoot, we offer the option of an additional makeup look to reflect your evolving mood or aesthetic.
Editing
Editing & Post-Production Refinement
Every image we create is a blend of artistry, light, and subtle enhancement. We don’t believe in drastic manipulation, our editing process is designed to polish, not alter. The goal? Magazine-quality portraits that still look like you, just your most radiant self.
We correct minor blemishes, soften skin gently, refine lighting, and enhance natural beauty. Most clients request light slimming or skin smoothing, while others prefer to keep everything as is. The choice is always yours.
Our standard retouching includes:
- Light wrinkle reduction
- Blemish removal (spots, bruises, pimples)
- Softening stretchmarks and cellulite
- Gentle skin smoothing
- Eye brightening and definition
- Subtle shaping and contouring
- Artistic lighting adjustments (dodging & burning)
Your edited images will reflect the signature style you see in our galleries. The editing process typically takes 14 to 21 working days, depending on our studio schedule. If needed urgently, we do offer rush editing options.
We photograph in professional RAW format to ensure the highest quality. This gives us the flexibility to refine colours, tones, and details in ways standard JPEGs can’t.
Looking for more advanced adjustments like tan-line correction or vein removal? These are available on request at an additional fee.
Our promise is simple, tasteful, timeless, high-end editing that preserves your essence while presenting your very best.
