Boudoir Photo Ideas

Inspiration for beautiful boudoir style

There are various reasons people choose to have a boudoir photo session. Sometimes the photos are given to a partner as a wedding, birthday or anniversary gift.  Sometimes the individual wants to reconnect to their own sensuality, or to document a moment in time they can look back on for years to come.
For many women, doing a photoshoot in boudoir style is a means of recapturing their sense of self after having children or losing touch with their identity in the noise and chaos of everyday life.

Whether you’re simply exploring ideas for boudoir photography or are already preparing for a photoshoot, you might have some questions.  What are the best boudoir outfits? Do the photos have to be explicitly provocative? Can I be outside? Can I do a boudoir style shoot if I’m pregnant? What if I’m plus-sized? What if I have stretch marks? What about my cellulite? 

If you’re asking some of these questions, the best place to start is by exploring the variety of options you have for a boudoir style shoot. It’s important to remember that boudoir style is not one-size-fits-all – there are more options for your photo shoot than you may think. It all depends on what you are looking for and what will serve you best in the moment.  From boudoir pregnancy photo ideas to more provocative boudoir style, we’ve gathered together some of our favourite boudoir photo ideas that reflect a range of options.  

Provocative photo ideas

Boudoir style provides an intimate look at a person’s body and personality by styling them in a more provocative setting. Ideas for a more provocative photoshoot might be set in a bedroom or shower and include partial or full nudity, lower lighting and sensual posing. 

Bedroom photoshoot ideas 

“Boudoir” is a French term that originally referred to a woman’s personal dressing room – a place where she can spend time on her own relaxing and pampering herself. Shooting your boudoir photos in a bedroom gives you the chance to express your sensuality in a comfortable, private setting. 

Classy photoshoot ideas

If you’re looking for classy photoshoot ideas, you’re probably after a “less is more, girl next door” vibe. Careful outfit choice and some direction with poses and props can help you achieve sensual boudoir style without crossing your personal line of comfort.  A good boudoir photographer will be tuned into your vision and help guide you through the process from start to finish. 

Outdoor boudoir photo ideas

If you’re feeling particularly daring and confident, a landscape or outdoor setting can provide the perfect backdrop for beautiful boudoir style photos.
