5 Tips for Selecting Lingerie for Your Boudoir Photo Shoot

So many women worry about picking out the right lingerie for their boudoir session. If you’re planning a boudoir photo shoot and are lost in the sea of choices when it comes to lingerie, read on!
The first thing I tell women is the most important thing is to pick something that makes you feel good. If you feel uncomfortable it will show in your photos. Now, I’m not saying don’t try new styles or colors, I’m saying if something doesn’t fit you well and you hate how it looks on you, move on to the next option! Here are five tips to get you in the right direction.

1.) Understand that not every style compliments every body type. Just because it looked good on the model, it may not look good on you and that’s OK!
2.) Lingerie, like all other clothing can vary in size between manufacturers; so, don’t get stuck on a size tag!
3.) Don’t rule it out before you try on. You may be surprised how amazing it makes you feel and look!
4.) Lacey doesn’t automatically mean scratchy. Materials have come a long way over the years and today’s lace can be super soft and comfortable.
5.) Lingerie can be fun to wear every day. Many lingerie pieces such as teddies or corsets can be combined with a pair of jeans and a jacket for a very trendy look!

Keeping these tips in mind when you go shopping, keep an open mind, try things on and be brave! Try new colors, styles and have fun! Lingerie is meant to make you feel good about yourself and celebrate the flirty, sexy goddess that you are no matter if your 20 or 60.
