Feeling Nervous About Your Boudoir Session? | Little Rock, Arkansas Boudoir Photographer
Hey love. Feeling a bit anxious for your upcoming boudoir photo shoot? Well, you are NOT alone sister, that is completely normal.
Here are a few tips on calming your nerves before your session!
Retail Therapy, Girlfriend!
Time to go shopping! Having some great wardrobe options will help soothe your anxiety & help to build some excitement leading up to your shoot as well.
Finding the perfect piece(s) of lingerie can also help to mask any pesky insecurities, as well as bring out your inner confidence!
Time for a Spa Day!
In the days/weeks leading up to your session, treat yourself to some quality self-care to help calm your nerves & squeeze in some well-deserved relaxation.
Go out with your besties for a mani-pedi, or even just a simple, fresh coat of polish if that’s more your vibe!
Facials, exfoliating and/or moisturizing treatments are also a great way to ensure that your skin is glowing for your photos, as well!
