The Second Boudoir Photo Shoot | Phoenix Best Boudoir Photographer located in Old Town Scottsdale Arizona

The second boudoir session? Yes, we at Bella Jade Boudoir are here for it!

Listen, our bodies are always changing. It is never the same, rarely perfect, but always beautiful.

Documenting that journey and holding space for our clients to exist freely and vulnerably in their bodies during any season is such an honor!

Miss A.’s second shoot was no exception. While it still took some coaching her through poses, we had a great time just as expected …

I’m telling you —

the confidence gains, and self love growth was undeniably present!

Over the years, we’ve been honored to have some of our clients come in for a second boudoir session with us. Miss A has been one of them! And we were so happy to have her back! This time she decided to do her session in our second studio, The Grey Room.

Doing a second boudoir shoot means capturing all of the beautiful versions of you —

celebrating lifes pivotal moments, embracing the in betweens, and documenting the journey as we go. It’s the commitment to continue welcoming the shifts and the seasons of life, as we age, grow and become more and more resilient.

So, the second boudoir session? Yes, we at Bella Jade Boudoir are here for it!

Listen, our bodies are always changing. It is never the same, rarely perfect, but always beautiful.

Documenting that journey and holding space for our clients to exist freely and vulnerably in their bodies during any season is such an honor!

Miss A. was no exception. While it still took some coaching her through poses, we had a great time just as expected!

We laughed, she called me out on my BS, I called her out on hers, we gave each other compliments tried accepting them (still learning), got all in our feels, caught up on life, and of course made gorgeous images! In short it was a successful shoot.

And, I’m telling you —

the confidence gains, and self love growth was undeniably present!

It shows in her boudoir photos and I am ever so thankful that she has graciously allowed us to share a few of them here!

What to Wear for Rich and Moody Boudoir Photos

So, you did it! You’ve finally decided to do this crazy boudoir thing. Likely you’re sitting somewhere between nervous and excited — maybe you still have a few questions, but for the most part you can not wait to get in the studio, unleash your sexy, and step into your more confident self! Usually, the first question my boudoir clients ask when booking their Scottsdale boudoir shoot is “what should I wear".

There are a lot of things to consider when it comes to outfit options like —

body type, what you hope to highlight or de-emphasize, your personal style, what will look good on camera, what compliments your hair/eyes/skin tone, where the photoshoot is taking place (whether it be in our main studio or in The Grey Room), and what look and feel inspires you! It can seem overwhelming at first, but you’re in the right place because we specialize in boudoir photography, want you to feel great, and are here to help simplify things for you. We talk in detail on what to wear for your boudoir shoot during your pre-shoot styling & wardrobe consultation (included when you book a Bella Jade Boudoir session). And honestly, most women find planning their boudoir session to be fun, exciting, and liberating. It’s a chance to express yourself, play dress up as an adult ( which is better because you have much better taste now, I’m sure😊!) , and explore your more sensual side. If this is you, I recommend to begin playing with ideas before your consultation, then finalizing your outfits later!
