So you’ve booked your first in home boudoir session and you’re wondering how the hell you’re supposed to get ready, what’s the best spot in the house, how do I set up before hand, what do I wear? All very important questions but thankfully they are also very easy and straightforward to tackle.

So let’s start with the most difficult to consider, the space. When shooting in home getting the space in order is hands down the most laborious step; furniture being kinda heavy and all, trinkets you’ve stockpiled over the years firmly settled in their places. It’s a tall order but a couple of major tips should help you conquer the task.

Tip one STAGE. In other words move everything that isn’t strictly for decoration away from the scene ie. mail, keys, cords stray jackets all that stuff so that we can build a scene from the bottom up

Tip two CREATE SPACE. If you worry you’re space may be cramped try arranging furniture in a way that allows your desired room to flow the best. In some cases that will require you moving less pertinent items like extra chairs, floor fans, humidifier thing like that into another room. There’s no need for a full blown make over but staying aware of space will keep the shoot focused.

Now that the hard part is out of the way the last bits are hair, make up and wardrobe.

For hair and makeup enlisting a friend to come over and hang out with you to keep you tip top is highly recommended and preferred, heck bring a whole team. This will do a lot like help set you at ease and let us focus on photos knowing that all the odds and ends are taken care of.

Wardrobe is even easier just go with your heart. Pajamas to negligees, corsets to band tees. What ever makes your heart sing or makes you feel the coziest will be what gets you your favorite photos to date!

I hope this little entry finds its way to all of you nervous wrecks out there looking to break out and create some exciting photos for yourselves.
