Hiring a professional boudoir photographer can make a significant difference in the overall experience and quality of your boudoir session. Your first instinct may be to go with who’s cheapest, but that’s not always the best option when going with a luxury Experience.

Here’s why it’s important to choose a professional that takes their craft seriously! 

Expertise and Experience: You want to choose a professional boudoir photographer that *specializes* in this genre of photography. We have the technical knowledge, skills, and experience to capture flattering angles, create a comfortable environment, and bring out the best in our clients. We understand lighting, composition, and posing techniques that can enhance your natural beauty and create stunning images. 

Here at BXB, we’ve got over 8.5 years of experience and have worked with over 700 clients in our career. Pretty neat, right? :) This is an extremely important thing to consider when choosing your photographer! Experience is NEEDED in this delicate + intimate genre of photography!

Creating a Safe and Comfortable Environment: Boudoir sessions requires a level of trust and comfort between our clients and photographer. Professionals prioritize creating a safe and welcoming space where you can relax, be yourself, and express your sensuality with confidence. We know how to establish a respectful and professional atmosphere to help you feel at ease throughout the session. This is SO important when it comes to getting photos in your gallery you like because you’ll feel and look more relaxed in your images!

Posing and Direction: Professional photographers have expertise in guiding and directing their subjects during the shoot. This is SO IMPORTANT! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had clients tell me “I’ve done this before but they didn’t pose me at all – do you do that?” And the answer is YES. We will provide clear instructions on posing, expressions, and body positioning to highlight your best features and create a flattering outcome. I will move every detail from the way your curl frames your face, to where your bra strap is on your shoulder. We know how to capture your personality and unique beauty in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident and images you’ll cherish forever.

Professional Equipment and Editing: We have invested in high-quality camera equipment, lenses, and lighting to capture the best possible images. We also possess advanced editing skills to enhance and retouch photos, ensuring a polished and professional final result. This attention to detail can make a significant difference in the quality and overall impact of your images. This is often overlooked and is crucial to getting a luxurious experience because in the end, your photos are going to last a lifetime! And you want to remember them in the most beautiful way possible!

Privacy and Confidentiality: Your privacy is important to us and we strive to maintain strict confidentiality. We will discuss and establish boundaries regarding the use and sharing of your images. You can trust that your intimate photos will be handled with professionalism and respect. Your images are NEVER SHARED without your permission! 

Expert Guidance and Advice: Guidance and advice throughout the process is a must! Let us help you choose outfits from Golden Aura (our intimates boutique attached to the studio!), discuss poses and styles, and offer insights on how to make the most of your session.  We’ll assist you in creating a unique and personalized experience tailored to your preferences and goals. This should be something you remember as a positive experience forever!

Missouri’s Premier Body Empowering Boudoir Photography Studio

Why did you choose to do a Boudoir Session?

First off, I chose to do a Boudoir Session to show myself what a badass I am! Additionally, I wanted to show others that regardless of their doubts or insecurities, they CAN take this journey and experience feeling and looking amazing through the entire process. It is very important for me as a human to encourage others to feel comfortable in their own skin. I spent too long battling my identity and appearance, so having a Boudoir session was a way for me to reaffirm my true self and embrace confidence in that individual.

What were your thoughts before your session?

This was my second Boudoir shoot, but only my first time with Billie in her Columbia Boudoir Studio. It was nerve wracking, as is any new experience, but I quickly relaxed as soon as I stepped into the studio. On top of my nerves, I was excited and looking forward to feeling sexy, spending time with Billie, and making myself a priority!

How did you feel during / after your session?

The excitement I felt before my session was there throughout the entire experience, and lingered with me for days. After my experience, I felt empowered and that no matter what challenges I faced that day or week, I’d be able to take them on with determination. In addition to the inner enjoyment I got out of this experience, I regained a significant amount of self-confidence. Looking at the pictures of myself through Billie’s camera and seeing the sneak peeks left me in awe of my own appearance.

How’d you feel when you saw your images?

I was absolutely floored when I saw my photographs for the first time! My initial thought was, “Woah, is that really me?”! The more I scrolled through my photographs, the more my jaw dropped and the wider my eyes grew. I felt stunning, sexy, feminine and powerful!

What was your favorite part of your Boudoir Session?

My question back would be, how can I possibly pick a favorite part when every single moment of this experience was inspiring and amazing? If I had to pick a favorite part, I would say working with Billie and feeling alive in the studio with her. Billie is a loving and phenomenal human; During the shoot, I could tell that her priority was to ensure my comfort and she consistently delivered on that. Billie is a loving, phenomenal human and I am honored that I was able to have this experience with her.

Did your Boudoir Session change the way you view yourself?

Yes, it truly did help alter the way I view myself. Billie captured parts of me that I don’t necessarily love about myself. Seeing those parts of myself through her eyes showed me that I am okay even with the “flaws” I am so critical of.

What would you say to someone on the fence about booking? 

I would say that it’s okay and perfectly natural to be nervous or even scared of booking a boudoir session, but I would also say just do the damn thing! Allow yourself the pleasure of opening yourself up to a new, or maybe even returning, version of yourself. Loving yourself is not easy, but taking these steps on your journey of self-love is incredibly worth it. Book the Boudoir session with Boudoir by Billie and I promise you won’t regret it!
