5 Things You Can Leave at Home for Your Boudoir Session | Arizona Boudoir Photographer

Arizona Boudoir Photography, Bella Jade Boudoir

After being an Arizona boudoir photographer for over 10 years, photographing hundreds of women in the Scottsdale, Phoenix, Mesa, Gilbert area — women of different ages, shapes, sizes, and comfort levels… Bella Jade Boudoir has learned a thing or two about what it takes to have a good boudoir session. And, just as importantly the things you can leave at home!

Spoiler: It's probably not what you think.

5 Things You Can Leave at Home For Your Boudoir Session

1. The idea that you have to know what you're doing.

You don't.

You can walk in and say, “Okay… what the hell am I supposed to do now?”

We've got you.

We'll tell you where to stand, where to put your hands, how to move, when to look at the camera, when to look away—and when to just let go and let loose!

You don't have to overperform.

You just have to be there. Show up, and have fun with it!

2. The version of yourself you think you're supposed to be.

Leave her at home.

The polished, perfectly put-together, I have everything figured out version?

She can take the day off.

We want you.

The woman who laughs at herself. The woman who gets a little nervous. The woman who has a goofy side. The woman who can walk into a room and absolutely own it by just being herself.

That's the woman we want in front of our camera.

3. A suitcase full of lingerie.

Please don't go shopping for an entirely new personality.

Indulge in something new, treat yourself, and don’t be afraid to step a little outside of your comfort zone! But please, don’t try to reinvent yourself overnight.

Find a few solid outfits that bring out your sexy side — something you’ll feel good in! No need to overpack!

Also consider brining the things you already love, too!

That set you ordered and never wore because you couldn’t find an ocassion, bring it!

Even your favorite bra. A silky robe. Your partner's shirt. A bodysuit. A pair of heels you've been waiting for an excuse to wear.

Sometimes the simplest things photograph the best because they feel like you.

4. The expectation that you'll feel confident the entire time.

You might.

You might not.

You might start your session feeling a little awkward and finish it feeling like you should have your own damn billboard.

That's the fun part.

Confidence doesn't always walk through the door first.

Sometimes you find it along the way.

5. A reason.

This one might be the most important.

You don't need a birthday.

You don't need an anniversary.

You don't need a wedding coming up.

You don't need someone waiting for an album under the Christmas tree.

You can do it because you thought,

“You know what? I want to do something that's just for me.”

That's a reason.

Actually, that's a pretty damn good one.

So bring your favorite things.

Bring your nerves.

Bring your curiosity.

Bring that little voice that's been saying “maybe I should actually do this.”

Leave the rest to us.

And who knows…

You might walk out of Bella Jade feeling a little different than when you walked in.

And THAT is the part we never get tired of.

Do I Have to Have My Boudoir Photos Shared Online? | Anonymous Babes of Bella Jade | Phoenix, Scottsdale, Gilbert Boudoir Photographer

Do I have to have my boudoir photos shared online?

At The Bella Jade Collection we specialize in boudoir and have photographed hundreds of women with all sorts of different backgrounds. From married women, single women, women in there 20’s, women in their 50’s, physicians, teachers, store clerks, stay at home moms, police wives, and more. These are just a few examples and everyone’s story is different.

Some would want nothing less than for us to share their images to inspire more women to do a shoot like this, some would rather leave this in their private life or for his eyes only. Both are entirely respectable options — and we support both decisions and anything in between.

In short, we give our clients the option to have their very own boudoir photos remain private, because it just feels right.

These are photos we are taking, it’s our studios artistic vision, time, and copyright but ultimately this is your body, and we entirely understand if doing a boudoir session in privacy and confidence is important to you.

As soon as you book a shoot with us you are sent a boudoir photography agreement which includes more information on how we use your photos as well as the option to select which level of privacy is right for you.

Some women choose to allow us to use all of their images at our discretion,
some choose to allow only images that don’t show your face,
or even opt to select which images specifically are ok for use.

And while we’d love to use them all — we have plenty of women who ask that we do not share any of their image at all. Thats totally ok, too.

The choice is yours and Bella Jade Boudoir will always respect your right to privacy.

Here is an example of how we may share your boudoir photos anonymously (“only images that do not show my face”)
