5 Luxury Boudoir Session Must Haves

There are tons of things you might think you need for your luxury boudoir session. We, at Megan Baxter Boudoir provide offer a ton of variety in each session. We include access to our client closet, professional hair and makeup, posing guidance, etc. We’ve compiled a list of our five must-have ingredients for the best boudoir session ever!

1. What you’re wearing for your boudoir session

At our studio, access to our client closet is complimentary with every session. We have over 300+ pieces from sizes 6X-XXS. Not to mention heels, body accessories, and jewelry. We recommend having at least 3-5 outfits for your luxury boudoir session depending on how long your session is. Make sure you try on your outfits before ensuring a great fit. Wanna wear those sexy stilettos but afraid you’ll fall? No need to worry as we say…they’re just for show! A sexy two-piece or a bodysuit is always my go-to and a favorite must-have. Not a fan of lingerie? No problem. Pair an off-shoulder sweater with some booty shorts or some jeans with a sports bra for a sexy, casual look.

2. Your Luxury Boudoir Session Makeup Look

To wear makeup or not? I would say a beautiful highlighter can do wonders for really showing off those cheekbones! We include professional hair and makeup in our studio so we recommend our clients to bring a photo inspo they like. Some go natural with just a hint of eye-popping shadow and some go full glam. Either way, we’re here for it. If your photographer doesn’t include makeup or hair, do some loose curls because you’ll most likely be messing up that hair so nothing too stiff. You can always find a local makeup artist to do your makeup or do it yourself if you’re savvy.

3. Luxurious Props for Luxury Boudoir Session

Is there something special you’re celebrating? Are you getting married? Did you just celebrate really coming into who you are? A boudoir session is a celebration of you and your body so why not bring the things that make you happy?! We’ve included a variety of props in our sessions including sports team jerseys, gaming consoles, and so much more! Are you a healthcare worker? Bring a stethoscope and get that heart racing! Add some foam bubble baths to your luxury session.

4. Water

Another absolute must-have and I know everyone says this but it’s true! You need to drink water before, during, and after! Not only will it keep you active and hydrated, but it will also make your skin glow and who can say no to a glow?! Not me! Being hydrated is so important because you will be moving ALOT. Posing in all those different positions exerts so much energy so we need you moisturized from the inside out honey!

5. You

The most important thing you can bring is yourself. A boudoir session is such an intimate experience for so many reasons. You are going to see yourself in such a different light. A light that most people don’t see and for that reason, you just need to be yourself. Being nervous is absolutely normal and any good photographer will be able to make you comfortable. It is so paramount to choose someone you can be yourself with. To be so vulnerable, it takes skill to know how to not only pose but to make sure the emotional aspect is there as well. Being you is the most important thing in the world, especially within a boudoir session. You don’t want to pay for pictures of someone else, you want these photos so YOU can look back on them and say “I did this!”.

A luxury boudoir session can really empower so many people. We are really lucky and grateful to each one of our clients who walks into our studio. It is our mission to have every single person who comes to our studio leave brighter and get to see what we see in them.
