Is a Boudoir Shoot Right for You?

To boudoir or not to boudoir? It's a question many brides ask themselves as the big day approaches... So, before you break out the lingerie and book a session, ask yourself the following questions to see if baring it for the camera is the right move for you.

If you've been working out for your wedding, or recently embarked on a healthy living plan, you might want to consider capturing your hard work with a shoot. Not only will you be able to look back on how amazing you looked when you're old and gray, but the photos will inspire you to continue on with your good-for-you lifestyle well after the big day. 

 Another factor to consider is who will be taking your photos. If you don't think you will be able to let loose with a professional photographer (especially one you've never worked with before) you might consider having your guy take snaps of you, or even asking a trusted friend with a nice camera to help you out. 

This question is all about reading the fine print: Some photographers will put in their contracts that have the right to use your images on their websites and social media pages. If that's not something you want, make sure you ask about this before you sign anything. 

Like all professional photography, boudoir shoots usually don't come cheap. Therefore, it's important to consider the money aspect of it: Would you rather spend $1,000 on sexy photos of yourself, or put those funds toward your honeymoon?
