Boudoir Photo Shoot Packing List

Boudoir Packing List

This boudoir packing list shows my top suggestions for what to bring to your shoot. In a previous post I covered what to wear to your boudoir photo shoot, you can check it out here: https://michelleburroughs.com/what-to-wear-to-your-boudoir-photo-shoot/ You can also watch my video below where I go into more detail and show examples of what to wear to your next boudoir shoot. Hopefully this boudoir packing list will make it easy to prepare for your upcoming photoshoot! Download it and fill it out as you shop and decide on outfits.

Plan to bring at least 3 outfits of different colors, textures, styles, fabric and fit and make sure you try them all on before your shoot! Nothing is worse than planning on a gorgeous outfit only to realize it doesn’t fit in a flattering way, especially if you order online where sizing can vary greatly between makers. Also pack a nude thong for a white sheets or implied nude set as well as a pair of closed toe heels (either black or nude).

Jewelry to match your outfits should be kept to a minimum to not distract from your beauty. Keep it simple and classic. You do not want to see large dated necklaces and bangles in your photographs later on. The same applies to props. They should enhance rather than distract from you. A couple of props is fine if they hold special meaning, but resist making them the focus of the shoot. Once you’ve tried everything on, you are all set! Just relax and get ready to enjoy your shoot!

What to Wear to Your Boudoir Photo Shoot

My Top 5 What to Wear Suggestions for Your Boudoir Photo Shoot by Michelle Burroughs Photography

Planning your boudoir photo shoot can be a lot of fun and one of the best parts is finding what to wear for lingerie and clothing that reflects you (your personality and your style) and looks amazing.

What to Wear to a Boudoir Photo Shoot

Here are my top 5 suggestions for what to wear:

    1. Bra and panty set
      This one is a classic and yet totally customized to you. Do you love a simple and classic little black set? Or a sporty and fun Calvin Klein version? Maybe a richly colored velvet version with retro high waisted underwear? You can also add a garter belt and/or stockings to add an extra element of sexy. Or wear a kimono robe over it if you’d like to be more covered.

    1. Bodysuit or teddy
      These are a great option and you can choose from solid ones that have more coverage or those with see thru lace and cutouts so you can choose what and how much you want to reveal or to conceal.

    1. T-shirt or sweater
      Gorgeous and simple looks with a t-shirt and sweater (maybe add a pair of cozy and cute knee-high socks?) are a great alternative to classic lingerie. Choose a t-shirt with a graphic or slogan that reflects your likes and beliefs or a comfy sweater that has visible detailing (a large knit fabric, lace accents, ribbon bows or ties, etc.). A leather moto jacket would be an edgier option.

    1. Something from your significant other
      Grab their favorite shirt, team jersey or an item from a hobby that you two do together to really customize your photo shoot and create amazingly authentic photos of you.

    1. Nude thong
      I know that’s weirdly specific, right?? White sheets sets are a gorgeous option for a boudoir photo shoot and I recommend them to pretty much everyone. This set is universally flattering and gives you that effortlessly beautiful “I woke up this way” look.
