Our 2024 Boudoir Themes… So Far!
As some of you Divas may have seen, since January this year we have introduced our themed Boudoir sessions!
Boudoir is incredibly personal. It’s a journey you go on, and it’s often an emotional one too. Everyone has a different reason for wanting to come to us - and obviously everyone has a different unique beauty and a different relationship with their body. Our themes means there is something for everyone.
Our themes have been brilliant for our Divas who want to continue their self-love and body positivity journey. It has been so lovely to see so many Divas come back for a second, third, fourth, fifth experience… The themes have allowed them to build on their confidence, whilst also exploring different aspects of who they are!
So, want to see what themes we have? Just read below!
The Shadow Theme: For the Divas who want something artistic, elegant and sultry
The Shadow theme is full of mystery. It is perfect for the Divas who want to feel sexy, sultry and powerful (think Bond Girl!) but want it to be artistic (almost abstract!) and suggestive, rather than explicit. It is full of atmosphere and ambience!
To highlight the artistic/shadowy look, we recommend trying to keep skin uncovered so it can cast patterns over the skin like a canvas. So avoid bodies, babydolls or camisoles. Harnesses or underwear with lots of straps look great as it adds to the look!
The Heat Theme: for Divas who want to sizzle
There’s no beating around the bush - the Heat theme is sexy as hell. It’s designed to be full of intent; to give you the space to reveal the inner temptress! It is bold, it is daring and it will help you connect with a real sensual power. It’s perfect for Divas who are either enjoying exploring that side of themselves already (yes we do have BDSM props you can borrow!!) or for Divas who are done hiding, and want to feel more powerful in themselves. If you want to go ‘naughty’, this is your choice.
If you love the vibe of this but don’t want to go uber-sexy, we can always transform the heat from fire to sunshine, to create something that feels tranquil, euphoric and care-free!
For this, we recommend going sexy with your outfit choices! Think harnesses, stockings and suspenders; bold outfit choices! You can also bring in any sexy props you may have at home… handcuffs, ropes etc!
The Wild Water Theme: for the liberated, sensual Divas!
This is similar to the Heat theme in that this is perfect for Divas who want to feel sexy! Having said that, our Boudoir Photographers also ensure that the theme is artistic too; imagine a water droplet falling down the collarbone or a black and white silhouette in what it feels like a rainy, moon-lit scene. Divas who love wild swimming also love this as it honours the peace and power they feel in the water; this style can easily embody something that feels very sensual but very grounded and natural too!
Oh also, if you’re ready to go Nude, THIS is the shoot for you! We normally recommend that you do either nude or topless, or that you wear a thin white tank-top or sheer shirt for this look.
The Sunday Morning Theme: For Girl-Next-Door Divas who want to feel care-free, relaxed and beautiful
The Sunday Morning theme is just gorgeous. It embodies that feeling of waking up on a Sunday Morning with nothing to do, bathed in sunlight. It brings out your effortless, casual, care-free, comfortable side. This is for Divas who want to feel at ease in their body because it has such a timeless, tranquil, self-soothing feel to it!
We suggest bringing in a sheer white shirt (we have some you can borrow too), casual lingerie (i.e soft fabric underwear or shirts), a partner’s top or shirt, even denim jeans, playful pyjama shorts, or classic lingerie (body, camisole, stockings and suspenders!). You can also wear a white vest top and that always looks great!
Queen of the Night theme: for Divas who want to feel glamorous!
Do you spend your life in leggings and a jumper? Or uniform? Do you feel like you never get to remember your glamorous side? Well, this is for you! This is designed to have that ‘night out’ or ‘special event’ feeling; getting ready with music on, not knowing where the night will take you… We can do something more modern with neon lights, or keep it classic!
For the Queen of the Night experience we recommend wearing classic lingerie (fishnets/stockings can look especially good here), a beautiful evening dress, a robe (we have some you can borrow), something sparkly? Anything that makes you think of classic glam! If your nights out tend to be a bit edgier, definitely lean into that - we always shape our themes to the person coming in!
The Goddess Theme: For Divas Who Want to Feel Powerful
Do you want to learn to embrace your body, rolls and all? To feel womanly and feminine, but also powerful and strong? Then we recommend the Goddess shoot. We wanted to create something that was all about feeling empowered in your body. The "Goddess" part isn't about how you look; it all comes from when a woman knows her worth; when she owns her body, and is able to stand proud in a room. That is the energy we are infusing into every single Goddess Experience!
For the Goddess Experiences we recommend going nude or topless draped in fabric (we have fabric you can borrow but please feel free to bring your own!) or you can wear body jewellery, or a sheer white or pale colour shirt. You can accessorise with crowns or any headpieces if you’d like! Please feel free to bring your own ideas too. You may have your own interpretation of what ‘Goddess’ means and looks like, and we want to see that!
