HELLO Gorgeous  :) 
Congratulations for making a new step toward your self love journey. So you decided to stop waiting until you lose extra ponds  to book your boudoir session.  Here is the five tips to help you rock your boudoir experience.

Tip 1
Find photographer you trust.

Met with the pro. Nothing it's better the meet face to face. Make sure that you like photographer's shooting  style. Check out portfolio. Go over the privacy police. In Violeta Brown Photography Studio your images won't be shared online with out your written permission %110 guaranteed.

Tip 2
Start preparing early! 

If you need the order back by a specific date you need to schedule your session 4-6 weeks in advance. It will give you stress free experience. If you want to get tan, (which is not a good idea for the boudoir session) get it done at least a week before your session. *Please note that most of the photographers will charge an extra fee to edit the tan lines.

Tip 3
Relax and let the pro take care of you.

Here we coming back to tip #1 trust to your photographer. In order to achieve a great results you MUST trust to your photographer. Your job is relax and enjoy of your experience and simply have fun.  You won’t need to worry about anything when it comes to your photo shoot with me. I can promise you with total confidence that you’re in great hands. Even if you don’t think you’re photogenic with the experience I have in guiding clients through poses you don’t have to think about a single thing!  I’ll take care of it all for you :)

Tip 4
Location

Determine where you would like your photo shoot be held. Set up a studio tour with your photographer. 95% of my clients prefer to have their boudoir experience at my studio. You are more then welcome to chose different location for extra fee.

Tip 5
Wardrobe 

#1 rule. Do not chose outfits that you don't like and feel comfortable in it. Don't afraid to be creative and mix the sets. Buying a new set is not a most have. Unless  you just want to pamper yourself a little extra. Black is an all time classic and never goes out of style. If you want something soft and feminine, the best choice- light and lacy.

Happy Tuesday! In this week's tutorial I thought it would be helpful to provide you some boudoir session preparation tips  DOs  AND DON'Ts  LIST

BEAUTY & STYLING DOs
• Find properly fitting lingerie (no squeeze! No loose!) 
• Shop in advance. I can suggest you some places.
• Shop for your body type (ask me for info)
• Buy or Borrow from best friend.
• Black, Red,Jewel-toned, pastels and white lingerie work best in my studio setting.
• Bring 3+ looks in a rolling suitcase or bag (unless a mini session)
• Bring sexy heels. Our designer shoe closet is 7-9.5 
• High heels help lift & elongate. Boots are also amazing with some looks
• Simple, elegant or sentimental jewelry is great. 
• For a fashion-stylized look, bring 1-2 favorite, dramatic jewelry pieces. 
• If you are concerned about tummy, go for slightly retro-inspired lingerie, like a high-waisted panty and bralette
• Bodysuits are everyone’s friend!
• Get hydrated the days prior to the shoot
• Get waxed or shave prior to session but not day before (to avoid bumps or rash)
• Stretch your muscles before your session
• Get manicure or pedicure done
• Moisturize your facial and body skin well on the morning of the session 
• Blemishes and bruises can be removed in Photoshop
• Tan lines, tattoos and major scars “may” require extra retouching for a fee
