01Start here

You don't have to buy a thing.

My client closet is stocked and ready for you, so shopping is optional. Most women love bringing a few pieces they already know work for them, then filling in from the closet.

Bodysuits, lingerie, robes and accessories you can borrow for your session.

Hair & makeup included

Glam is part of every full collection. For mini sessions, add it on or arrive camera-ready.

I'll help you choose

Bring your favorites to your session. We'll go through them together in person and pick what will photograph best.

Want more variety? Extra outfits can be added to any collection. Bring one or two backups either way, so we have options on the day.

02The looks

Six styles my clients love.

There's no one right answer for every body. Pick what makes you feel like the best version of yourself, and mix styles across your looks for a gallery with real variety.

The bodysuit

Flattering on every body, every time.

A bodysuit or teddy is the easiest place to start. It photographs beautifully at every size, gives you full coverage through the middle if you want it, and gives your hands something to play with: straps, hips, the neckline.

  • Look for lace, mesh panels, plunging necklines, high-cut legs
  • Great for first-timers and anyone who wants a little more coverage

The matching set

Classic, sexy, and so many options.

A bra and panty set is always fun to shoot. Sets open up more poses, like showing off your waistline or playing with the waistband, and they're easy to find in every style and budget.

  • Look for sets that match exactly, in a fabric with texture
  • Love your middle? Go low-rise. Want more coverage? High-waisted is gorgeous.

Everything strappy

I absolutely love straps.

Strappy and caged pieces add shape and drama, and they look incredible on camera. If you only buy one new piece, make it something with straps.

  • Look for harness details, cut-outs, criss-cross backs, strappy garters
  • Fit check: straps should lie flat without digging in

Lace, garters & stockings

A little extra glam.

Garter belts and thigh-highs instantly make a set feel more editorial. Pair them with heels, or go barefoot; most of my clients do because of the way I shoot.

  • Stockings: sheer black, fishnet or lace-top thigh-highs
  • Bring one pair you love, in black or nude

Borrowed from him

Layers that feel like you.

Some of the sexiest images come from the most personal pieces. His button-down, a favorite jersey, a leather jacket or a blazer over lingerie tells your story and adds variety to your gallery.

  • Ideas: his dress shirt, a jersey, a leather jacket, a blazer, an oversized sweater, or just jeans and topless
  • Personal touches: his fire gear or uniform, your veil, dog tags, cowboy boots

Soft & simple

Robes, gowns and just the sheets.

Sometimes the easiest outfit is barely an outfit at all. A long robe or sheer gown, or simply a sheet, makes for soft, timeless images. "Just the sheets" can be implied nude: you keep your underwear on and I pose you carefully.

  • Look for long sheer robes, slips, silky kimonos
  • Always your call. You decide how much or how little you show.

03Accessories

Make it yours.

The details are what make a gallery feel like you and nobody else. Bring the pieces that tell your story, and we'll build sets around them.

  • Jewelry: statement earrings, a necklace, rings, body chains or a crown. One or two pieces at a time keeps it elegant.
  • Hats & eyewear: a cowboy hat, a fedora, his ball cap, your favorite glasses
  • Shoes: heels, boots or sneakers. Barefoot works beautifully too.
  • Jeans & topless: your favorite pair of jeans and nothing else is effortlessly sexy
  • Props with meaning: champagne or your favorite bottle, a jersey from your team, his uniform, your veil, a book or record you love
  • Hosiery: thigh-highs, fishnets or a garter belt to dress up any set

Keep it simple: nothing but a sheet is a classic, timeless look that's still incredibly sexy.

04Colors & fit

What photographs beautifully.

Rich, solid colors and fabrics with texture always look best on camera. Lace, mesh, satin, velvet and strappy details catch the light and add depth.

  • Classic black
  • Wine & red
  • Emerald
  • Sapphire
  • Blush
  • Ivory & white

Fit tips

  • Fit matters more than style. Try everything on before your session.
  • Do the sit, kneel and bend test. If it pinches, slips or needs constant fixing, bring a backup.
  • Size up. Many lingerie brands run small, and a size up means nothing digs in. Read the reviews before you order.
  • Order at least 2 to 3 weeks ahead so there's time to exchange. Once it fits, cut off every tag, including the size tag.
  • Bring a black and a nude thong if you plan to wear pieces from my client closet.

What to skip

  • Costume-style outfits. They're not my shooting style.
  • Babydolls are cute, but the flowy fabric can add volume and makes it harder to pose and define your waist. If you love one, bring a fitted option too.
  • Neon colors, big logos and busy prints that pull attention away from you.
  • Tight bras, socks and waistbands the day of. Wear loose clothes so you don't arrive with marks.
  • Self-tanner or a spray tan within two days of your session. It can streak and rub off on the fabrics.
  • Anything you don't feel amazing in. If you're unsure, leave it home.
05Special sets

Make your session one of a kind.

These sets need very little planning on your part. Add them when you book, and I'll have everything set up when you arrive.

Angel wings

Your runway moment.

My blush feather wings photograph like a runway show. I've truly never seen a color or style they don't complement, so wear whatever you love.

The shower set

Steamy, and as covered as you like.

Shower images can be nude, implied nude, or fully clothed. My favorites are any lingerie, just a thong, or a nude or white cut-off tee or tank. Bring a piece you don't mind getting soaked.

Mamas-to-be

Celebrate that belly.

The sweet spot is usually around 28 to 34 weeks. Bralettes, sets, an open button-down or sheer fabric all frame your bump beautifully. Comfort comes first, so choose soft pieces with a little stretch.

Plan ahead: try on your outfits before your session. Studio lingerie isn't guaranteed to fit for maternity sessions.

06Couples & men

And what should he wear?

You can wear anything in this guide. For him, start simple: jeans or sweatpants and a plain shirt with no logos. Or dress it up with a button-down, dress pants and a tie, or go sporty. Wear something that shows a little of your personality. As you both get comfortable, most guys end up in just their underwear.

  • Start with dark jeans, an open white button-down or a plain fitted tee
  • Underwear: solid boxer briefs in black or a dark color
  • Personal touches: a cowboy hat, his work gear, a sport coat, a watch, a jersey, or his favorite liquor as a prop
  • Men's sessions follow the same advice, plus a fresh trim a few days before

07Where to shop

My favorite places to shop.

Something for every budget and every size. Each link opens the store in a new tab.

Pro tip: check shipping times before you order, and order a backup in case something doesn't fit. Fit is everything.

08Session prep

Your countdown.

  1. 2 to 3 weeks before

    Plan your looks

    • Order your outfits plus a backup
    • Try everything on and do the sit and bend test
    • Narrow it down to your favorites, plus a backup or two
    • Fill out your pre-session questionnaire so we can get to know you
  2. The week of

    Pamper yourself

    • Drink plenty of water and get good sleep
    • Wax or shave a few days before to avoid irritation
    • Do your nails in a color you love. Nails can't be edited, so check for chips and choose your color carefully.
    • No self-tanner or spray tan within two days of your session
  3. Session day

    Show up and relax

    • Arrive with clean, completely dry hair
    • Wear loose clothes and skip the bra so there are no marks
    • Bring your outfits on hangers, plus jewelry and shoes
    • Bring your favorite playlist, snacks and your confidence
