Alright, let’s get real. The biggest decision you’ll make for your boudoir session (aside from what killer lingerie to wear) is choosing your boudoir session vibe. Are you gonna go for that smoldering, drop-dead sexy energy, or are you feeling more playful, soft, and sweet? Here’s the fun part—there’s no wrong answer, and you can totally rock both!
This is YOUR session! It’s all about capturing what makes you feel unstoppable—whether that’s in a seductive, black lace number or something softer like a pastel bralette. So, let’s dive into the differences between the two vibes, how to choose which one speaks to you, and why you really don’t have to choose at all (because why pick when you can have it all, right?!).
Finding Your Vibe: Sexy or Sweet? Decisions, Decisions…
Before your session, let’s talk about how you want to feel. Boudoir is all about empowerment, self-expression, and giving the middle finger to any idea that you need to fit a mold. So, the vibe should be 100% YOU.
The Sexy Vibe: Bold, Fierce, Unapologetic
If you’re ready to unleash your inner temptress, the sexy vibe is calling your name. This is where you go full-on vixen—think black lace, strappy bodysuits, sky-high heels, and all the “come-hither” looks. It’s about feeling powerful and owning every inch of your body in a way that makes you want to strut around like the queen you are. You’ll be serving up smoldering stares, jaw-dropping poses, and maybe even a little hair flip for good measure.
The Sweet Vibe: Soft, Playful, Totally Irresistible
Not feeling the dark and daring look? No problem—let’s lean into something more soft and sweet. A sweet boudoir session captures that light, playful, flirtatious side of you that’s equally as sexy. Think soft pastels, cozy blankets, tousled hair, and natural light streaming through the windows. You’re the playful, carefree version of yourself, feeling feminine and free, with plenty of adorable smiles, flirty glances, and maybe even a little booty pop.
How to choose your boudoir session vibe: Sexy? Sweet?- Both???
Can’t decide between your bold, sexy side and your playful, sweet one? Girl, who said you have to? But if you’re trying to narrow it down, ask yourself a few questions:
How do you want to feel during your session?
Do you want to walk out of there feeling like a total badass who just set the world on fire? Go sexy! Or are you feeling more relaxed, flirty, and fun? Sweet might be the move. Either way, you’re gonna feel amazing, so pick what lights you up.
What’s in your wardrobe?
Do you have a killer lingerie set you’ve been dying to break out, or are you vibing more with that delicate lace bralette and flowy robe? Sometimes, your outfit can help set the mood, so take a peek at what’s in your closet and see what speaks to you.
What environment feels most YOU?
Sexy sessions often happen in darker, moodier settings—like a velvet chaise, candlelight, or satin sheets. Sweet sessions are often lighter, with bright natural light, soft pillows, and maybe even some flower petals thrown in for good measure. Which one makes you feel like your best self?
What part of YOU do you want to highlight?
Boudoir is all about celebrating YOU. Do you want to show off your daring, fierce side, or is today the day for a more relaxed, flirty vibe? Or maybe you want a bit of both—a little spice and a little sugar!
Who Says You Can’t Have It All?
Here’s the thing—boudoir doesn’t have rules. You can start off soft and sweet and then turn up the heat. A lot of my clients love doing both because let’s face it, we all have layers, and sometimes we want to show off our range!
You could kick things off with that cozy, girl-next-door energy. Picture yourself lounging in a cozy sweater, smiling at the camera, totally in your element. Then, when you’re ready to turn things up, change into that fierce lingerie set and channel your inner vixen. We’ll dim the lights, switch up the poses, and capture your smoldering side.
How to Pull Off Both Vibes in One Session
If you’re torn between sweet and sexy (and honestly, who could blame you?), why not go for both? The trick is to start soft and playful, easing into the session with natural light and cozy, comfortable outfits—think oversized sweaters, delicate lace, or soft fabrics that capture your flirty, relaxed side. Then, when you’re ready to turn up the heat, we’ll switch up the lighting, bring out the bold lingerie, and dive into those fierce, dramatic poses. It’s all about blending vibes—one moment you’re the girl-next-door, the next you’re channeling your inner seductress. With some strategic outfit changes, a shift in lighting, and a variety of poses, you’ll capture the best of both worlds—leaving you with a stunning gallery that shows off your full, dynamic self.
What’s your boudoir session vibe?
at the end of the day, your boudoir session is about capturing the version of you that makes you feel like a goddess. Whether you’re channeling your seductive side or showing off that softer, flirtier energy, there’s no right or wrong way to do boudoir.
Choosing your boudoir vibe is one of the most fun parts of planning your session. Whether you want to unleash your sultry side, show off your playful energy, or blend them into something uniquely YOU, there’s a vibe that will make you feel unstoppable.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s figure out your vibe, get you in front of the camera, and capture your most powerful, beautiful, and badass self!
