What to Expect During Your Boudoir Session with Karlie
We believe boudoir is more than just a photoshoot—it’s a transformative experience. It’s about confidence, empowerment, and embracing the beauty of who you are, exactly as you are.
If you’re considering a boudoir session but aren’t sure what to expect, don’t worry! Karlie will guide you every step of the way, ensuring a comfortable, uplifting, and empowering experience from start to finish.
Preparing for Your Boudoir Photo Shoot
Pre-Session Consultation
Your boudoir photo shoot journey starts long before you step in front of the camera. We’ll schedule a pre-session consultation (via call, video chat, or in person) to discuss your vision, comfort level, and goals for the shoot. Whether you want a soft, romantic feel or a bold, moody aesthetic, Karlie will help plan every detail to match your unique style.
During this chat, we’ll go over:
✔ Outfit ideas and what to bring
✔ Hair and makeup recommendations
✔ Styling and posing preferences
✔ Any questions or concerns you might have
Our goal is to make sure you feel completely prepared and excited for your session!
PROTIP
When preparing for your boudoir photo shoot, choosing the right lingerie can make all the difference in how you feel and how your photos turn out.
