I simple top and and some panties can be just as sexy as any lingerie

✨ First Rule: Do Not Stress Over Wardrobe

We mean it. We’ve said it in the guide and we’ll say it again—don’t bring anything you don’t absolutely love. If you feel like a sausage in that bodysuit or you’re fussing with the straps every five seconds, it’s a no.

Instead, bring:

• Outfits that make you feel sexy AF

• A mix of textures (lace, silk, mesh, cozy knit)

• Structured pieces or solids for portrait-style images

• Something personal or sentimental if you want to spice it up (his shirt, your veil, those hot red heels)

🖤 Lingerie is not required. Want to rock an oversized tee or go full nude goddess? We’re here for it.

💋 Get That Glow (Without Doing the Most)

Want to glow without the drama? Follow these beauty prep musts straight from your client guide:

DO:

• Lather on lotion every day leading up to your shoot

• Get your beauty sleep (this isn’t just a cute saying—it shows)

• Bring a soft robe for in-between sets

• Brush your lips and moisturize them (dry lips in HD? No thank you)

• Stretch the morning of—we’re gonna move that body, babe!

DON’T:

• Spray tan right before your shoot (just... trust us)

• Try a new haircut or hair color within a few days of your session

• Drink red wine or party hard the night before (unless tired + puffy is your thing)

💄 Hair & Makeup? Handled.

We include professional hair and makeup with every session because we believe your glow-up should start the moment you walk through the door. So arrive with clean, dry hair and a fresh face—and we’ll handle the rest while you sip something bubbly and settle in.

👜 What to Bring With You

We’ll go over this in your pre-session consult, but here’s a quick peek:

• 4–5 outfit options (even if your session includes fewer sets, it’s great to have variety)

• Any accessories you love—think earrings, necklaces, garters, heels, harnesses

• A clean face and dry hair if we’re doing hair/makeup

• A light robe or coverup

• Good energy. A flirty playlist. And an open mind.

😘 Hype Yourself Up

This shoot isn’t just about sexy photos—it’s about seeing yourself in a whole new light. So please check that negative self-talk at the door. We’ll guide every pose, flatter every angle, and celebrate the hell out of you.

Take it from our guidebook:

“WATCH THAT SELF TALK, BABE—YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!”

Yes. Yes, you are.

🔥 Final Tip: Trust the Process

You don’t have to know what you’re doing. That’s our job.

We’ll help you style your looks, get you glowing in glam, and walk you through every pose and expression—whether you're rocking lace or nothing at all. Your only job is to show up and let go.
