Give your fiancé a gift that he’ll never forget…

If you want to make that moment you walk down the aisle super memorable, surprise him with the ultimate gift – a premier bridal boudoir photo album from T. Marie Creatives.

What is bridal boudoir?

Bridal Boudoir is coined as an intimate form of professional photography in which a bride or bride-to-be poses while wearing revealing clothing or lingerie. Most clients who book a bridal boudoir photoshoot plan to give the photos or albums as a gift to her groom-to-be to be given before or during the wedding day.

Bridal boudoir photoshoots are also a wonderful way of immortalizing this once-in-a-lifetime occasion.

Why You Should Consider a Bridal Boudoir Session

Most brides book a bridal boudoir photoshoot to give the final portraits to their partner and/or to have a keepsake of this special day.

Popular surprise ideas include a velvet keepsake box with the final prints, a black faux snake-skin album, or fine art metal wall print to hang until the babies arrive.

Whatever you end up deciding, I know your future spouse will be thrilled with any of the above! Bonus: Imagine the smile on his face when he sees you waiting for him at the end of the aisle….THE FUTURE IS looking BRIGHT AND SEXY!

Bridal Boudoir - The Gift That Keeps on Giving

A bridal boudoir session makes the perfect groom’s gift for the wedding day. It’s an intimate gift he will never forget and will appreciate forever. 

Remember, your wedding day is a day that won’t happen again. This album will help you both cherish the day even more than you already will. Plus, it’s like an intimate and private secret between the two of you.

Bridal boudoir photoshoots can ignite the sparks and romance whenever you or your partner see revisit the portraits.

Sultry and Sweet Bridal Boudoir Photoshoot

It’s so easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of wedding planning and you may end up worrying about all the little details and overlook one of the most important parts of the wedding – YOU.

As they say, you can’t pour from an empty cup! Don’t forget self-care, self-love, and self-confidence. 

Having a bridal boudoir photoshoot is your perfect opportunity to be luxuriously pampered so that you look and feel your best going into the most special time of your life.

Bridal Boudoir: What to Expect

Before the Shoot:

The first thing I do with every boudoir client is start a ‘secret’ Pinterest board for you and I to pull together all of your ideas in one spot, like our little reference board for aesthetics. Some of my clients worry that they don’t know what they like so this is a great little tool I use to find out what speaks to you. It’s sometimes easier to just pin pictures you like. It’s a great way for me to understand your personal style and how you want to be portrayed in your imagery.

Do you like close-ups of the face, silhouettes, black and white imagery, intimate and sexy, or other whatnots? We’ll find it out together! I spend a lot of time preparing and planning for your day so that you feel ready to go and your nerves are kept to a minimum!

Day of the Shoot:

I will greet you personally with a smile, a glass of bubbly, and a helping hand to carry in all of your belongings. Inside the studio, our first step is getting you into hair and makeup with my amazing artists. They will be prepped and ready to makeover your desired look. It’s best to arrive with clean, dry hair and a fresh face.

You’ll be nervous at first. It’s normal and totally fine. I’ve shot hundreds of sessions and have a strategy to help get you through these initial nerves. While you are sipping and relaxing in hair and makeup, we will start to talk through the outfit options you brought with you. I also have some back-ups available in my client closet like silk and lace robes, bodysuits that range from XS-3X, and a variety of body chains and fabrics that we can also play with.

Wardrobe is not my main focus for the way I shoot. Seriously, you are the piece of art, anything else is just complimentary. Don’t overthink this, I got you. This whole experience is about working with you, your body, and catching those beautiful images that you didn’t even know existed. I’m here to put your mind at ease and walk you through every pose from head to toe. And I always show you my camera shots just so you can see how amazing you look even before editing! It’s an instant confidence booster, and the rest of the session is super smooth and fun.

After the session is over, I take you through each of the albums that we discussed in the consultation so you have some ideas for the ordering session. Going through the photos after a shoot is one of the most exciting parts that our clients are always looking forward to.

After the Shoot:

It’s lunch time! You get to splurge on that meal you’ve been craving since you booked your boudoir shoot! This is my favorite part because I get to relive your shoot AGAIN as I edit them. By this time, you need to start planning how you are going to give the prints to your significant other! If it was up to me, I would do it as he is getting ready to meet you on the aisle – just make sure the groomsmen aren’t around! Can you imagine him waiting for you down the aisle? Aye yi yi!! Here are some other thoughtful options:

  • After the rehearsal dinner so you both can get excited about your wedding night
  • The wedding night when you both are alone
  • When you make it to your honeymoon so you can both take the time to enjoy it

Anytime you want, actually! This is your life, I’m just here to celebrate it and YOU!

How long does a bridal boudoir photoshoot take?

Most of my boudoir shoots start at 9:30am. Outdoor shoots will vary with the timing of the sun and season, but most take place around sunset.

Bridal Boudoir With Your Partner

You have the engagement photos to show your commitment for one another. Now it’s time for the boudoir shoot to show your love for one another. Don’t mind me, I’m just here to soak it all in and capture the connection and intimacy you share with your partner. Make this moment last forever so that in 50 years, you can relive it like it’s the first time every time…
