The nerves are real. I know this because almost every woman who walks through my studio door in Loveland,
CO has the same look on her face the first few minutes — a mix of excitement and barely-contained panic. They
booked the session, they packed their bag, they drove here. And now they are wondering what exactly is about
to happen.
This is the post I wish I could hand every first-time boudoir client before they arrived. Because here is the truth:
the fear is almost always bigger than the actual experience. And once women understand what a boudoir
session actually looks like from the inside, most of that fear dissolves.
So let me walk you through it. Start to finish.
Before You Arrive
A week or two before your session at BB Boudoir in Northern Colorado, you will receive a prep guide that covers
everything — what to bring, how to take care of your skin in the days leading up to your session, and what to
expect. You will not be walking in blind.
The night before: pack your bag. Lay out your outfits, your shoes, any accessories. Give yourself one less thing
to think about in the morning. Wear loose, comfortable clothing on the way over — nothing with tight waistbands
or elastic that leaves marks. And eat a real meal before you come. Low blood sugar and a boudoir session do
not mix well.
When You First Arrive
You will walk into a private studio. There is no front desk, no waiting room, no other clients. Just the two of us,
good music, and natural light. We usually start by going through everything you brought — laying out your
outfits, talking through which order makes sense, and just having a conversation. This is intentional. The
beginning of a boudoir session in Loveland, CO is not about jumping straight into shooting. It is about letting you
breathe and settle in.
If you booked the full experience, your hair and makeup appointment is factored into the timeline. You will arrive,
get professionally styled, and walk into the session already feeling polished.
The Session Itself
Once we start shooting, you will never be left guessing what to do. I will direct every single thing — where to put
your hands, how to angle your body, when to look at the camera and when not to. You do not need posing
experience. You do not need to know what you are doing. That is my job.
Some poses will feel strange in your body and look incredible on camera. That gap is completely normal and it is
part of how boudoir photography works. I will tell you what I see through the lens — and what I see is almost
always very different from what you are imagining.
We will move through your outfits naturally. Some women love one look so much we spend extra time there.
Some want to fly through all five. We follow your energy, not a rigid checklist. The session typically runs one to
two hours and the BB Boudoir signature session includes up to five outfit changes. See exactly what is included
in a session before you book.
What the Studio Feels Like
Calm. Private. Real. There is no performance required here. The studio in Loveland, CO is filled with natural
light and set up to feel like a space where you can actually exhale. I have worked hard to make it feel less like a
photo set and more like a room where you can just be a human for a few hours.
The music is yours to influence. The pace is yours to set. If you need a minute, we take a minute. If you are on a
roll, we keep going.
After the Session
After your session wraps, I will begin editing your images. You will receive access to a private online gallery
where you can view your final photos and select which ones you want to keep. Your 20 digital downloads are
included with the signature session. Additional images are available if you want more.
Nothing is ever posted publicly without your explicit permission. Your gallery is private, your images belong to
you, and every decision about what happens with them is entirely yours to make.
What Women Say When It is Over
Almost universally, the thing women say first when their session ends is some version of: that was so much
better than I expected. They walked in braced for awkward. They walked out surprised by themselves.
The photos are beautiful. But what they are actually responding to is what happened in between — being seen,
being guided, being somewhere where they mattered for a few hours.
Browse the full portfolio to see the range of women and sessions we have done — and when you are ready,
book your session. You will know what to expect now. I promise it is worth it.
