Knowing your body and what angles flatter you the most is key. Practice posing in front of a mirror to find your best angles just like you did as a teenager. Remember, confidence is the most attractive pose, so find positions that make you feel comfortable and confident. Don’t worry if you don’t think you are finding the poses easily. Your boudoir photographer is trained to make you look your best in boudoir photos and will guide you.

Props like chairs or beds can be used effectively to create stunning sexy poses. Leaning slightly forward can accentuate your bust and hips, showcasing your curves beautifully. Don’t be afraid to play with different poses and see what works best for your body type.
Lighting and shadows can dramatically alter a photo. Your plus size boudoir photographer will use lighting that highlights your favorite features while providing an artistic and sensual feel to your photographs.
Close-up shots can capture the intimate details of your beauty. A close-up of a curve, a smile, or an eye can be incredibly powerful and sensual. These shots often convey emotion and depth, adding variety to your boudoir session.

A professional boudoir photographer will know how to direct you for the best shots, but communication is key. Discuss your preferences and concerns beforehand and even during your session. The more comfortable you are with your photographer, the better your session will turn out.
Ladies often ask “what to wear for a plus size boudoir photo shoot?” Choose lingerie or outfits that make you feel comfortable and sexy. The right outfit can help your confidence, which will shine through in your photos. Remember, the best outfit is the one that makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Wear outfits that help camouflage areas you’re not crazy about and outfits that show the parts you love. Once you start looking for outfits to wear, you will discover it was easy.
