Regardless of your size, the more insecure you feel about your body the harder it is to pull the trigger and book the boudoir session you’ve always wanted. Whether it’s with us or another boudoir photographer, trusting the creative direction of your boudoir photographer and knowing what to wear for your boudoir session plays a big role in how you’ll feel about your boudoir photos.

From helping pick outfits that compliment your body type, to giving posing direction that will flatter you, and using lighting, angles, and photography techniques we can capture you looking and feeling your best! Doing a boudoir shoot with us means you’re in good hands!

But there are still a few things we encourage you to do before your session that can ensure you’ll love the way you look in your boudoir photos! I am going to share a few tips and outfit suggestions we give our mid to plus-size clients during their pre shoot consultation (which is included when you book a shoot with us!).

Even those who have insecurities surrounding their midsection or where their body carries the most weight can benefit from these tips!

If you’re considering a Scottsdale Boudoir Session or have already started planning for your plus-size boudoir shoot this is for you!

My hope is that these tips will help you begin to feel more comfortable with your boudoir shoot and have a few ideas to inspire what to wear for your plus size session.

Tip #1: You do not have to hide your body!

First let’s address a common pain point for women — the tummy. If this area is a trouble zone that you’d rather not highlight in your photos there are options! High-waisted panties and high-quality onesies like teddies and bodysuits will flatter your figure better than your typical budget bra and panty set. Plus, since it conceals your tummy area these types of outfits can also help you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Underarms and cellulite? Try long sleeves in lace, incorporate a robe add stockings to your boudoir outfit! These items will hug your body, accentuate your curves, and smooth out your trouble areas giving you a desired look that will help ease your nerves and empower confidence!

Tip #2 : Remember that numbers do not define you!

Whether it’s the number on a scale or your pants size do not stress it! Focus less on numbers and more on what fits you best! I’ve personally been a 10 to 14, busty woman for most of my adult life and I learned very quickly that the conventional idea of small, medium, large just doesn’t work for me. Don’t waste your time crying over having to size up or worse getting the wrong size just to satisfy your ego. Choosing the wrong size for the sake of avoiding the dreaded size up could ultimately result in being unhappy with how that translates on camera. Size up or down depending on what fits and be careful not to let insecurities and doubts guide your choices If the numbers don’t add up to a perfect body that’s ok. Perfect is not the goal — learning to love yourself just as you are is so much more important than numbers on a scale.

Tip #3: Do not limit yourself to just lingerie.

There are so many alternative options to lingerie that can be just as sexy for a boudoir photoshoot. Sometimes, the non-lingerie outfits turn out to be the favorite! Boudoir outfit ideas that aren’t lingerie include sweaters, jeans/jean shorts, little black dresses, t-shirts, jerseys, something from your significant other’s closet or even just sheets. And by the way, sheets require no sizing at all and can be incredibly flattering for highlighting your curves and downplaying your pain points! Go ahead, think outside of the box, and take this opportunity to honor your body and learn to love the skin you’re in!
