Why We Don’t Do Traditional Boudoir
In ‘traditional boudoir’, some sort of lingerie is often involved.
What if you don’t like lingerie?
Well, Here at Madison Bou Photography we’re rewriting the rules. We believe that every woman deserves to feel empowered and confident in her own skin, without conforming to outdated standards of beauty. That's why we've made it our mission to create a space where women can truly be themselves and celebrate their unique beauty in all its forms.
We say, “wear whatever you want to wear.”
This kind of thinking opens a lot more doors creatively.
By encouraging our clients to wear whatever makes them feel comfortable and confident, Whether it's a glamorous gown, a cozy sweater, or literally, nothing at all, the choice is entirely theirs. True beauty lies in authenticity, and that's exactly what we strive to capture in every photo we take.
So, when choosing your outfits for a boudoir experience, think about what you feel good wearing.
This experience is all about you, after all, so ask yourself “what outfits makes you feel more confident? What outfits make you feel more beautiful?”
(Oh, and no ‘negative talk’ like….. “I DON’T FEEL BEAUTIFUL IN ANYTHING” …. That kind of talk is prohibited around here :-)
Our approach to boudoir photography is all about celebrating diversity and individuality. Every body is beautiful, regardless of shape, size, or age. That's why we work closely with each of our clients to ensure that their unique personality shines through in every image.
From playful and flirty to bold and daring, we celebrate the full spectrum of femininity in all its glory.
But our commitment to authenticity goes beyond just the images we create. We also prioritise creating a supportive and inclusive environment where our clients feel empowered to express themselves freely.
From the moment you walk through the door, you will be greeted with warmth and encouragement, knowing that you're in a judgment-free zone where you can truly be yourself.
At Madison Bou, we believe that boudoir photography is about so much more than just taking beautiful pictures.
It's about celebrating who you are and embracing your unique beauty, inside and out.
So why settle for "traditional" boudoir when you can have something so much more meaningful?
Join us in celebrating authenticity, empowerment, and self-love. Say goodbye to "traditional" boudoir and hello to a new era of empowerment and self-expression.
What are those outfits you already have that make you feel the most sexy? They may even be outfits that you haven't gathered the courage to wear yet?
That's what we are looking for.
A boudoir twist is very easily applicable to almost any outfit.
Of course a classic set of lingerie is always an option but you can think outside the box and go for example with:
Bodysuits, slips, negligees, nighties of any kind… These look fabulous on every type of body, and you can find them in so many different cuts and styles. On top of that, if you feel a little uncomfortable with your belly, it will help to cover it up a little so you’re less conscious.
Jeans, joggers, overalls… Jeans, unbuttoned at the waist and topless is a really popular look but you can wear denim anyway that suits you.
Simple Button Shirts… Buttons opened, nothing underneath is the ultimate Alt Boudoir look. Very rock and roll.
Spotswear
T-Shirts and stretchy Jumpers.
Cosplay and themed outfits
Dresses of any kind, from Summer dresses to Ball Gowns….Dresses are really pretty in boudoir, especially if they are see-through to play with your silhouette, and flowy to add some movement. Not sensual enough? Grab the bottom of your dress to show some thighs, or pull one of the straps down to be more playful. You can wear them in so many ways.
Literally, nothing at all…
A BOUDOIR SHOOT IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF, HAVE FUN, AND LET YOUR AMAZING, BADASS, AND SENSUAL-SELF OUT. IT IS BY LETTING GO (OF PRESSURE, EXPECTATIONS, AND JUDGMENT) THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RELAX, DO ALL THE THINGS YOU WANT TO DO, AND LIVE LIFE BY YOUR OWN RULES
