Boudoir Props : Love it or Leave it | Best Boudoir Photography near Phoenix, Arizona located in Scottsdale

It’s hard to know what props to bring to your boudoir shoot (if any), especially if this is your very first time doing a boudoir shoot like this. Some boudoir photographers would even prefer that you don’t bring any or have chosen not to allow them at all. Luckily, here at Bella Jade Boudoir you really don’t have to guess what’s ok, what’s not, or what works well or what doesn’t. There are plenty of resources that our boudoir clients can use for support including our boudoir guide, asking questions in the boudoir VIP group, watching tips on Tik Tok, scheduling a one on one consultation with your boudoir photographer, reading this blog and more!

And Ill tell you that after photographing hundreds of women for boudoir over 6+ years this Scottsdale Boudoir Photographer has great advise for what you should pack in your boudoir bag or leave at home.

Here are just a few!

Satin Ties & Blind Folds — Love it

Satin Ties and Blind folds can be incredibly sexy. If you want to elevate your boudoir photos from beautiful to bombshell and aren’t afraid of stepping into your alter ego — this boudoir prop is totally fair game at Scottsdale studios.

Sex Toys — Leave it

That’s cool if you use them. But, they have no place in our boudoir studio.

Fresh Flower Pedals — Love it

Fresh florals feel seamless in the boudoir. Think, ethereal or bridal boudoir photos. Keep in mind that bouquets of flowers are best suited for bridal boudoir, only.

Cowgirl Boots — Love it

Country girls, pah-lease do! This is a boudoir favorite at Bella Jade. Boots are a quick and easy accessory to your boudoir look that can bring tons personality to your session!

Champagne — Love it

Feel free to bring the bubbly. If your celebrating a birthday, a milestone, getting married (or divorced), breaking in the start of something new, or just living your best life Champagne bottles and a glass of sparkling bubbly photographs great and is playfully sexy! Go’on, girl! Have fun with it!

His Shirt, Jersey or Uniform — Love it

The real MVP. Even if it doesn’t quite fit bring it! These items are unique to you and your significant other and will not go unnoticed. It can be worn or laid over your body like a sheet!

Body Jewelry — Love it

Body jewelry is a great accessory for boudoir photos! While we love it, we also have found that it can be one of the more cumbersome props to pose with. So, if you plan to bring it plan ahead! And be mindful that it my take up more time than you’d think. If you’re more on the nervous side or think you’ll need a lot of posing guidance then I’d leave this one at home.

Chalkboard Signs — Leave it

May be cool for pin up, or as a pregnancy announcement, but its a bit cheesy in the boudoir studio for my taste. Let’s tell your story through emotive imagery instead, yeah?

Hats & Ball Caps — Love it

So simple but makes a huge statement. We love a cute hat as a boudoir prop! It’s easy to pose with, can get you loosened up, relaxed, having fun, and doesn’t take too much attention away from you!

Minis Session Event FAQ’s:

Are you still feeling a little nervous?

That’s, totally OK. You are doing something that may be a little outside of your comfort zone, and feeling a little nervous is normal.

For you, we’ve put together some frequently asked questions that should put your mind at ease. And get you feeling more comfortable about booking a boudoir session with us!

— Will I be sharing the studio with other ladies? —

No, our studio is located in my private residence in Gilbert, Arizona. The space is exclusive for clients of The Bella Jade Collection. Unless, you choose to book back to back sessions with a friend for support, your time slot is reserved just for you!

— Do I need to know how to pose? —

Absolutely not. Most of our clients have never done a boudoir shoot before, and do not expect you to come in with rehearsed poses. We specialize in boudoir for the every woman. Your boudoir photographer will provide you with as much photo shoot coaching and posing direction that you need to ensure that you look and feel amazing.

— Should i wait until i lose a few extra pounds? —

We certainly want you to treat your body with love and care, so if a boudoir session motivates you to work on a health or wellness goal, by all means be good to your body! But, the numbers on a scale should never be the reason you put off booking a shoot like this! A boudoir session is about getting to know yourself, celebrating your sexy, and feeling empowered to love yourself more just as you are. I am telling you with confidence, that you do not NEED to lose weight in order to look great in your boudoir photos. In fact, a lot of women have walked away from their boudoir experience with us feeling a lot better about how they see themselves. We hear all of the time that the confidence received from our boudoir sessions has had life-changing impacts on how women talk to themselves and continue on their self love journey even outside our studio.

— Will I need to bring my own outfit? —

Yes, we want you to wear something that you are comfortable in and that will make you feel sexy wearing it! We’ve found that letting you shop for your own outfits and try them on in advance is ideal for an intimate shoot like this. But if you need help with what to wear we are happy to offer some guidance. PLUS, when you book during our mini session event you’ll be receiving a FREE $50 gift card to Belle Lacet Lingerie in Chandler, which includes a professional fitting by one of their experts! Just let them know we sent you and they will ensure you find the perfect fit for your boudoir session with us!
