If you’re considering a boudoir photoshoot, one of the MOST important decisions you’ll make is choosing the best boudoir photographer for you. What works for some, doesn’t mean it will work for you, and that’s okay!! Everyone has different things they are looking for, or things that are important to them. So when booking your boudoir session, remember to keep YOU in mind!
First thing first. As a Sioux Falls boudoir photographer, this is at the top of my list for my clients so it should be at the top of your list when looking for the best boudoir photographer. A reputable boudoir photographer will have experience working with clients of all body types, sizes, and comfort levels.
They should also have a professional, safe, and secure studio space or be able to recommend somewhere. Communication is key!! Make sure they are listening to YOU! Express your concerns, boundaries, and safety preferences, and make sure they are listening to you. If you aren’t comfortable with your images being shared, make sure they fully understand and accept that. You deserve a positive, safe, and comfortable boudoir experience!!
It’s all in their work! Make sure your boudoir photographer is frequently publishing their galleries or showing off their work. This could mean a private portfolio they share with you, a social media profile, or a blog! You’ll get a feel for what they do, and how they pose, and see their final product. Boudoir photography is a big investment (in tons of different ways!!), so choose someone whose work resonates with you and makes you feel comfortable. It’s essential to find someone who can capture YOUR beauty and personality in a way that makes YOU feel confident and empowered.
Lastly, don’t forget to consider your budget! Boudoir photography can be a significant investment, but it’s important to remember that you’re paying for not just photos, but also an empowering experience. Trust me, it is beyond worth it. You are investing in yourself! Make sure to inquire about pricing, packages, and any additional costs upfront to avoid any surprises later on. Do they offer a client closet with inclusive lingerie sizes and styles? Do they offer hair and makeup? All the little details will provide you with the best possible experience, so don’t be afraid to see what they offer.
Hopefully, these 3 tips help you pick the best boudoir photographer for YOU! You deserve an empowering boudoir experience that makes you feel confident, safe, powerful, and beautiful! And if you are looking for an experienced boudoir photographer, who prioritizes your safety, comfort, and overall experience, I’m your girl!
