Intimate Self Love Boudoir Photography

Have you ever thought to yourself that you wanted to do a boudoir session? Maybe it’s because you’re about to have a birthday or are getting married and want to give a timeless gift to your spouse. Whatever the reason, self-love boudoir sessions are for everyone. All photography sessions are treated with the same approach: consent, celebration, and creativity. Self-love does not have to be reflected in a boudoir session. If it does for you, you’ve come to the right place. If self-love looks more like a creative portrait session, you can view a dreamy session with Carly here.

Why boudoir?

Boudoir sessions are WAY more than just pretty photos. If you have seen boudoir photos on instagram, or heard of friends doing it and have wondered “why?”

How does a self love boudoir session work?

It’s simple! You fill out the contact form with what your vision is for your session, we set up a consult for your boudoir session, I send you a survey, and we make magic together. Earlier, I mentioned consent. Each self love session is dictated by your comfort and how you want to celebrate yourself. There are three different releases that are offered for these intimate sessions and you are free to pick the one that best suits your needs. And if you change your mind after the session, that’s okay too! The releases are no release, anonymous release, and full release. If you choose to allow your images to be shared, I will let you have control over which ones make it social media, my website, and even blogs like these. Any image shared must have your approval.

I’m excited to share with you a bit more about the Alexis Schwallier Photography self love boudoir studio and what our time together will look like.

Being in your underwear in front of a stranger can be a little weird. This blog is to help you get comfortable for your session or convinces you to book your own self love session with Alexis Schwallier self love boudoir studio.

First,I recommend looking at some boudoir posing. Figure out what you like and what you are comfortable with. Not every session needs to be overly sexy and what works for one person, might not work for you. I can send you some of past my galleries, too!

Second, figure out the vibe! Do you want sexy and sultry? Cute and comfortable? Moody? Maybe you want to do a nude session. Whatever you are comfortable with or are going for, I am here to make that happen. Need help figuring out your vibe? Let’s set up a consult!

Third, what to wear. As a client of Alexis Schwallier Photography, you have access to my boudoir closet. Each piece is washed and sanitized before every session. If you would like to bring your own outfit(s), that’s fine too! I just like having the option available for people.

The boudoir closet is a handpicked collection of lingerie pieces in various inclusive sizes to help clients who come into the studio for their South Carolina Boudoir Photography session to utilize. The size range includes pieces in small to 4X and come in a variety of styles. Not everyone wants to buy lingerie just for a session or they don’t know what style they like. This is a great opportunity to explore pieces you might not normally see yourself in. Of course, you can bring your own.

Fourth, come with an open mind, expect to listen to Rihanna, and have a good time!
