Choosing the right boudoir photographer is a BIG DEAL! Boudoir photography isn’t just about the final images; it’s about YOU. Capturing all of who you TRULY are. So, it’s important to find someone that you trust and who can make you feel like your best self! I’ve been a Minneapolis boudoir photographer for quite some time now, and as much as. would LOVE to be everyone’s boudoir photographer all the time, but I know that mighttttt not be realistic. LOL. So, here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your boudoir photographer!
This is a BIG one. Your boudoir photographer’s portfolio should have people of different body types, and ethnicities, and showcase all styles. Make sure you can see yourself in your boudoir photographer’s portfolio. It doesn’t have to be your identical twin, but people that look similar to you. You want someone who makes EVERYONE feel welcome, safe, loved, and honored!
Boudoir photography has many styles, usually moody and dramatic, light and airy, pin-up vibes, super-posed, etc. Make sure the photographer’s style resonates with you! You should be excited to work with them just by looking at their photos, editing style, posing, and setups.
Client testimonials and reviews are HUGE! These can directly provide insight into the professionalism and the experience they offer. Read every review you can! See what everyone has to say, how they feel after, and how they like their final product.
This is the MOST important thing. Be sure you COMPLETELY and thoroughly understand your boudoir photographer’s privacy and usage rights of the photos. It is SO important to discuss how your images will be handled. If you don’t want your images shared, make sure they will completely abide by that and respect your privacy.
Above all else, trust your instincts. You are SO WORTHY of an unforgettable boudoir experience. You deserve to feel safe, respected, loved, and empowered throughout your entire experience. From booking your session to the final gallery delivery. You deserve the best!
