Default Boudoir Photography

I'm going to be getting boudoir photography done and I'm trying to make a list of props/accessories/outfits to bring with me that match this style shoot. The theme of the shoot will the fun, pretty, romantic side of pinup. For some reason, I'm having a brain fart and cant think of anything

Any help?

Thanks!

My suggestion is to do a search in Google or something with the word pinup and then you can get some posing ideas and some ideas for what you could wear...I love the idea of pinup though...

I think your hubby will love it!

Good Luck!

some pearls
a cute little apron
foxy outfits
and maybe your veil??

i think whats most important is that you feel comfortable. i love the pin up idea! search pin up or varga girl online. the suicide girl website actually has a ton of cool pics from this era.
everyone wants to be in tip top shape before they do boudoir but as much as you work on the outside work on the inside! your pics will be sooooooo much better if you are completely happy with your body! good luck!
