what to expect from your boudoir shoot?

So... You have decided that a boudoir photo shoot is something you really want to do.... What happens next? For most women, this is the first time they will be doing an intimate photo shoot of this nature, and they will definitely be very nervous. This is totally normal! A boudoir photo shoot is something outside of your comfort zone and we are very aware of how scary and, at the same time, exciting it feels when you are preparing for it. However, keep in mind, it is a fun, exciting and empowering experience, and our amazing team are here to assist you every step of the way.

We will discuss the location options for your photo shoot with you, prior to your shoot. However, most photo shoots take place in our natural light studio that is set-up like a luxurious hotel suite. We often do boudoir shoots on location, so the photo shoot can also take place at your home or a boutique hotel… It is your choice! 

The night before your boudoir shoot, make sure everything you want to bring with is packed, don't forget your special jewellery, shoes, outfits and panties. For ideas on what to bring with, please check out our "what to bring" page and our Pinterest boards, which we are always updating with beautiful ideas. Wash your hair and let it dry naturally, do last minute hair removal, moisturise and have a good nights rest.

It is finally here, the big day, and the butterflies are probably doing flip flops in your tummy! To help calm your nerves, when you arrive, we will welcome you with a chilled glass of champagne. Then you will spend an hour and a half being pampered and transformed into the sexy goddess you are by our Make-up Artist and Hairstylist.

Femme Fatale Boudoir - Hair & Makeup Team

The chilled glass of bubbly, selection of sexy corsets, pretty lingerie and lacy items set a romantic and beautiful mood for your shoot. When you are ready, you change into your first outfit and the magic begins. 

We will assist and guide you through posing, outfit choices (if needed) and looking and feeling fabulous in-front of the camera. There will be a few outfit changes during the shoot, and we normally end off with an ‘implied nude’ shoot. This is very sexy; you pose with a sheet that is strategically and creatively placed. Gorgeous make-up and hair, stunning outfits, fabulous posing and soft beautiful light results in incredible images of you.

Within three days of your shoot, you will be sent a link to your images which are in a safe and password protected online album. Here you choose your final images, and we should warn you its hard to choose!  These images are the ones we do a little post-production on, we remove unwanted marks without changing you or your body shape. We love our ladies to look as natural and as glamorous as possible.

The thing we hear most from our clients is: “This is completely out of my comfort zone” or “I have never done anything like this before”. Hearing those words, always makes us smile… If it was something every woman did, or was in their comfort zone, women wouldn’t have such negative perceptions of themselves. 

At femme fatale boudoir, we aim to make every woman feel and look like the gorgeous and sexy goddess, they are. As well as, boost their self-esteem and help them fall in-love with themselves again.  All photo shoots are personalised to each woman's style, taste, physique and personality, as we are all unique... You deserve an exclusive experience and photo shoot. So when you are ready to love-you-for-you .... Send us an email or give us a call. We can't wait to show you how gorgeous and sexy you are!

Love
the femme fatale girls
