Planning for your first Boudoir photoshoot can feeling like a pretty daunting experience.

You might be feeling unsure about whether it’s ‘for you’ or whether you will feel comfortable wearing lingerie for your photoshoot. It will be a totally new and unique opportunity for you but you don’t have to feel like you’re out of your depth.

Boudoir photography has the power to make women feel confident and powerful.

It’s about building on your self-confidence and a chance for you to truly celebrate yourself – as a woman – in the amazing and wonderful body that you have.

Boudoir also has the ability to help a woman see herself in a truly memorizing and different light, in a style that she’s never experienced before and in a way that that will help to highlight her existing curves and figure features.

However, boudoir photography is not just about lingerie.

Here at Boudoir by Gritton, I am going to talk you through my ‘Popular boudoir lingerie alternatives’ to help you choose an outfit that you’re comfortable with and one that will suit you!

When it comes to boudoir photography, most probably associate it with sexy lingerie but there are a number of different and unique alternatives that women can choose that will work just as well when it comes to trying to find the right outfit for them.

Some women love the excitement and joy of going out and purchasing something sexy to wear for their photoshoot but in all honesty, you really don’t have to spend a lot of money. In fact, why not use an item of clothing that you already have in your wardrobe!
