Planning to book your bridal boudoir photo shoot? Here’s 5 more reasons you should book your session today:


YOU deserve it


You have been planning every last detail of your wedding meticulously. You have tirelessly spent your days glossing through magazines and scouring through website reviews just to make sure you find the perfect supplier who will give you the most amazing wedding services. You probably had stressful days when nothing seems to go right and everything that could go wrong, did! A glass of your favorite sangria may lessen the stress, but an entire day of you being a celebrity supermodel, all glammed-up and feeling beautifully confident will definitely fill your happy tank to the brim.


An entire day of feeling beautiful taking direction from a photographer who will stop at nothing to highlight your curves and photograph you from the most flattering angles and will do wonders on your confidence levels. Do this for you, because you are a superwoman, and you deserve it.  


Another reason to pamper yourself


Doing a professional boudoir photo session means having another reason to pamper yourself. You will only look beautiful, if you feel beautiful! A day at the salon and spa will definitely make you feel relaxed and awesome, ready to confidently strut your stuff in front of the camera. 


Shopping for new lingerie is another way to pamper yourself too! Choose pieces that make you feel comfortable; those that are designed highlight your curves and boost your confidence.


An empowering gift to yourself

You are beautiful, sensual and breathtaking, in your own unique way. This is always true; however, because of life and all its complexities, you sometimes forget it. You shy away from your potentials, quiver away from attention and hide your light behind every possible excuse. 


A bridal boudoir experience is meant to liberate you from this. It will empower you and makes you feel confident in your own skin. Imagine creating an amazing collection of your photographs when you feel most beautiful, in the way that you are, and in the moment - isn’t that a liberating and empowering experience? 


An amazing and unique surprise to your partner


Visualise the look on your groom-to-be’s face when he sees an entire spread of your carefully curated, sensually beautiful and sophisticated photographs, just for him? Aside from it being something unique, it’s truly one of the most thoughtful gifts you can give him. Aside from the actual photos, the confident woman who will come out of that boudoir photoshoot will be an awesome partner in life; that’s an amazing gift, not just during the wedding, but for the rest of your lives!


To discover something new

Having a bridal boudoir photo session is meant to take you out of your comfort zone. It’s meant to take away your inhibitions and make you discover things about yourself that you didn’t think you were capable of. It may not be something that you’re used to doing and that’s okay! Having the confidence to try out something you’ve never tried before will give you the added boost and openness to more exciting things in the future.

4 Tips for Choosing a Boudoir Photographer in Adelaide

Having a boudoir photoshoot is one of the best things you can do for yourself. For one, it is a treat to oneself. Think about the feeling you get after getting a really great haircut or having a nice mani-and-pedi. Better yet, after a relaxing session at the spa. Yes, boudoir allows pampering like that too. Also, such a shoot lets you see yourself in a different light. From choosing an outfit to practising your poses, you will get to know yourself better and realise what you really like.

Doing a boudoir photoshoot also encourages you to step out of your comfort zone. This is true, especially if you are a first-timer and the kind of person who gets shy in front of the camera. Also, like most women, you might sometimes forget how beautiful you are. Through a boudoir, you will get to appreciate yourself more; to the point of embracing your inner goddess. You will leave the studio feeling empowered and walking with striking confidence. A photoshoot with pros, such as our team at Avalon City Imaging, guarantees that you will have undeniably stunning photographs that will remind you of your inner and outer beauty. Plus, these make a great gift to a significant other if you have one and wish to surprise them.

1. Scan The Professional Photographer’s Portfolio

Make sure to hire a photographer with experience and who utilizes a photography style that you want to go for. Aside from asking them the length of their experience in professional photography, the best way to know this is through having a look at their portfolio. This is usually on their website. More often than not, their most recent works will be on their social media pages. So, do not forget to also check these out! If you love what you see, start your inquiry!

2. Consult with The Professional Photographer

Your boudoir session will immortalize your beauty in photographs. Hence, the images should reflect all of you. This is possible through the talent of the creative photographer behind the camera and you appearing yourself. That is why it is crucial that you feel naturally comfortable with your photographer during the whole session. To guarantee that, have a phone conversation or an in-person consultation with your prospective photographer to find out if you click. 

Remember, your synergy with the professional photographer can make or break the experience. Hence, book the one you are comfortable working with among your prospects. This will definitely help you feel confident and be at your best during the session. 

3. Protection Of Privacy

As mentioned, photographers flaunt their previous works on their portfolios for promotional and marketing purposes. During the shoot, you can wear anything you like. Whether you are going for boudoir pieces that are revealing in nature or not, make sure that the photographer protects your privacy. It is necessary to have one who will not let your photographs end up in the hands of anyone who can compromise your security. Some photographers require a contract to be signed for this purpose. Hence, hire one who gives you the liberty to choose whether your photographs are shared in any way or not. 

4. Package Inclusions

Especially if it is your first boudoir experience, it is crucial to be fully aware of the professional’s offerings. Hence, be careful of availing a service and make sure that it is worth your bank. Some professional photographers offer a wide selection of recommended boudoir clothing in their “client closet.” Others expect you to bring your own pieces. Also, some work with professional hairstylists and makeup artists to give you a total pampering package before the queen like you strikes a pose. Furthermore, ask about how many post-processed images you will get. Whether you prefer a hundred shots with minor editing or a few ones that tell a story like fresh out of a magazine, the decision is yours.
