Rest is key to looking and feeling your best. A good night's sleep will help reduce puffiness, brighten your skin, and leave you feeling refreshed and ready to shine.

Bonus Tip: Get a good night's sleep

Avoid last-minute stress by packing your lingerie, accessories, shoes and anything else you want to include in your shoot the night before. Don’t forget essentials like a robe, water, a light snack and touch-up makeup!

Tip 5: Pack everything the night before

Make sure your outfits fit comfortably and highlight your favorite features. Testing them ahead of time will help you avoid surprises and ensure you feel your absolute best on shoot day.

Tip 4: Try everything on before your session

Choose lingerie or outfits in shades that complement your skin tone and make you feel gorgeous. Whether it’s classic black or white, soft pastels or bold jewel tones, the right colors can enhance your natural beauty.

Tip 3: Wear Colors that make you feel beautiful

Music has the power to set the mood and ease your nerves. Create a playlist of songs that make you feel confident, sexy and empowered, and bring it to your session to help you relax and get into the moment.

Tip 2: Curate a Playlist

Healthy, glowing skin can boost your confidence and help you feel radiant in your photos. Hydrate well, moisturize, prevent chance of sunburns and avoid trying any new skincare products a week before your session to prevent unexpected reactions.

Oh and starting about 2 weeks before your session, apply lotion to your body twice a day (morning and night). I swear it makes a huge difference!

Hi, I'm Ashley—it’s so wonderful to meet you!

"I can't even begin to touch the surface of how much my boudoir session with you meant to me.

This experience was a dream start to finish, and I can't thank you enough. You made me feel confident, sexy, powerful and comfortable in my own skin.

I'm trying to "embrace the journey" not just for myself but to model for my daughters. These pictures helped me tremendously on that journey."
