Boudoir FAQ Answered: - Here are some answers to our most often asked questions…

Confidence is not something you’re born with, it’s something that you have to work hard to achieve. (Like all good things in life)

Jayne has danced in front of thousands of people in outlandish costumes on prestigious stages such as Moulin Rouge in Paris and all over the world in Japan, Korea, Greece, Italy and Austria. Did she do all that without nerves on stage or without losing confidence? Of course not.

I spent nearly 30 years on the radio, every day broadcasting to thousands of people in their homes and workplaces. Just looking at the microphone and trying to work out what to say as the 3 minute record started to fade out slowly would fill me with dread. I would often be asked to walk out on stage in front of thousands of people to entertain them for a few minutes until I had to introduce the main act. You think that’s not terrifying? Of course it was.

No one is born with confidence, you have to work hard at it…

Welcome to the empowering world of boudoir photography, where beauty knows no bounds and self-confidence reigns supreme. In a society often fixated on unrealistic beauty standards, boudoir offers a refreshing perspective—a celebration of individuality, sensuality, and self-love. Through the lens of boudoir, we embark on a journey of self-discovery, embracing our bodies, and redefining what it means to be beautiful. Join us as we delve into the transformative power of boudoir photography and explore how it challenges stereotypes, fosters self-expression, and empowers individuals to embrace their unique beauty with confidence and pride.

In the world of boudoir photography, the choice to have professional hair and makeup done is not merely an aesthetic indulgence; it's an important decision that can enhance your entire photoshoot experience. Some Boudoir studios will offer hair and makeup as part of the session price and some will offer it as an upgrade or require you to pay the hair and make-up artists independently. Every studio is different but in every case we would advise you ensure you take the hair and make up option. (We offer it as standard in all our sessions)

Here are the top five reasons why investing in professional hair and makeup is a game-changer for your boudoir session:

Beauty sessions are a great option for women who want to feel beautiful and confident in front of the camera, but may not feel comfortable with a full Boudoir photoshoot. They are a slightly more modest alternative to boudoir, but still allow you to show off your sexy and glamorous side.

Every woman is a Goddess. However, our culture has a narrow definition of what it means to be beautiful, causing many women to underestimate their incredible worth. It’s time to shift our focus away from our perceived flaws and celebrate our favorite features instead.

Every woman has a beauty of their own, a unique combination of features that makes her radiate … It could be the colourful twinkle in her eyes, the fullness of her lips, or the toned abs she worked so hard to achieve at the gym. What we do is help clients discover and embrace their uniqueness, so they can see themselves in a new and positive light. In a Madison Bou Boudoir Session, this uniqueness becomes entirely positive and all the negative associations a woman has with her appearance are stripped away.

All of our photoshoot experiences include professional hair and makeup and there’s a good reason for this…

We want you to look your best for your pictures and you’ll never look better than when you’ve had professional hair and make-up. It’s a great way to start the shoot experience in a relaxed way as well which will also lead to a better end result.

The end result is all about expressing your beauty in the best way possible. It’s not about turning you into a ‘supermode’l, it’s about showing you the most beautiful you, that YOU have ever seen. All packaged in products that help you to feel amazing for years to come, every-time you look at them.

The feeling of confidence will totally show in your pictures. If you feel good, pictures of you will reflect that inner power you’ll feel.

Flawless hair and make-up also cuts down the editing time after your photoshoot, again making your pictures all the better.

We certainly recommend our hair and makeup professionals rather than doing things yourself, because our girls know exactly the kind of tools, colours and products to use to get your look, ‘camera ready’. (Camera ready is very different to ‘going out on the town’ ready) 

Professional hair and make-up is even more important when it comes to our glam and boudoir sessions.
