What is a Boudoir Photoshoot? (And Why You NEED One) 👠

What is Boudoir Photography? (And why YOU need one) 📸

(/buːˈdwɑːr/; French: [bu. dwaʁ])

According to Wikipedia, Boudoir is a woman's private sitting room or salon in a furnished residence, usually between the dining room and the bedroom. Still, it can also refer to a woman's private bedroom. 

And so, when it got attached to what we call a boudoir photography - it became about a woman sitting on a chair, or in her bedroom intimately.

It is a type of photography that is intimate, sensual, romantic, and erotic in a private environment.

There’s a certain magic that happens when you step into the world of boudoir. It’s not about revealing skin—it’s about revealing you.

The boudoir is where intimacy meets artistry, where the delicate whisper of lace and the soft curve of light tell a story of unapologetic confidence.

But let’s be clear: boudoir isn’t about anyone else’s gaze. It’s about your own.

It’s about standing in front of the mirror, wrapping yourself in a barely-there and provocative lingerie, and rediscovering the parts of yourself the world often asks you to hide. ;)
