If you've booked your Bella Jade Boudoir experience (or you're thinking about it), first of all... congratulations.

You're about to do something incredibly powerful.

Not because you're going to wear beautiful lingerie.
Not because you'll have stunning photographs.
(which you are)

Because you're choosing to celebrate yourself.

We know preparing for a boudoir session is exciting... and maybe a little intimidating.

Thankfully, you’re in the right place. As a top rated luxury boudoir studio in the Phoenix, Arizona area for over a decade —

we've guided hundreds of women through this same process. And while it may seem a little intimidating right now our boudoir clients will tell you themselves that by the time you leave the studio you wont be thinking about how nervous you were at first but rather —"I wish I had done this years ago."

Here's what you need to bring to be prepared for your boudoir session.

But wait, before we get into what to bring there is one big thing we want you to be clear on before your boudoir session…

Before Your Boudoir Session

Stop Trying so Darn Hard to "Be Ready"

The biggest mistake women make is waiting.

Waiting to lose twenty pounds.
Waiting until life slows down.
Waiting until they feel more confident.

Confidence doesn't usually happen before a boudoir session.

It happens because of one.

Your session is about learning to love who you are today—not just the woman you hope to become someday.
Fair? Okay let’s get started!

What to Bring to Your Boudoir Session

One of the best parts?

You don't need a suitcase full of lingerie.

Our clients often bring 3-5 outfits that reflect different sides of their personality.

Some favorites include:

  • A black lace bodysuit

  • Matching bra and panty sets

  • Oversized sweaters

  • Silk robes

  • Button-down shirts

  • Cozy socks

  • Jeans and an open white shirt

  • Leather jackets

  • A little black or red dress

  • Bridal lingerie

  • His jersey or dress shirt

  • Nothing but a sheet

Remember:

The woman wearing the outfit is what makes the photographs so special.

Not the outfit itself.

Don't Forget These Essentials

Bring:

  • Nude and black underwear (for just sheets)!

  • Strapless bra (if desired)

  • Heels or Boots

  • Jewelry if you’d like!

  • Any sentimental items

  • Wedding veil (for bridal sessions)

  • Hats (Brimmed, Cowgirl, Ball Caps — have fun with it!)

  • Rings or meaningful accessories

If you're unsure about anything, bring it anyway.

We'll help you choose what photographs best.

The Most Important Thing to Bring

Bring yourself.

Not the version you think you should be.

Not the version you'll become after losing weight.

Not the version who has it all figured out.

The woman you are today is already worthy of celebrating.

At Bella Jade Boudoir, our mission isn't simply to create photographs.

It's to remind you of the woman you've always been.

Strong.

Beautiful.

Powerful.

Confident.

Brave.

And deserving of seeing yourself that way.

If you've been waiting know that…

We'll take care of the posing.

We'll guide you every step of the way.

All you have to do is walk through the door.
