Achieved a major milestone and wants to capture the moment
Someone healing from trauma - Boudoir can be a very therapeutic experience.

Where is the shoot location?
This is completely up to you! Sessions can take place in a myriad of locations.. This could be your home. Don’t think your home will work? That is fine, we can rent an Airbnb, hotel, or shared studio space. This is really dependent what the types of images you are looking for and the cost associated with each location option. Location is something discussed in our pre-consultation call.

What kind of outfits are worn during a male boudoir session?
Whatever makes you feel confident and sexy! Here is a sample list of possible outfit items:
your favorite dress shirt, suit, tie, etc
casual clothes (jeans, button-down shirt, etc.)
Underwear (have fun with this!) - this could be as basic as black boxer briefs to more fun items like jockstraps and everywhere in between. I would suggest at least purchasing 1 new pair of underwear for the shoot.
Any kink or fetish gear you are into (ex: Leather harness, pup hood, etc.)
You are in complete control of your session, which can all be discussed during a pre-consultation call. Check out the complete guide for more information:
Do I have to be completely nude?
Absolutely not! Boudoir is about self-expression and self-love in an intimate way. Whatever that means to you! Prior to the shoot, we will discuss outfit ideas and your comfortability with different levels of undress or posing. This then sets a level of boundary that will not be crossed. I make sure that you are comfortable the entire duration of the time that we have.
What if I get an erection during my male boudoir session?
Things happen, It is completely natural there is no need to worry. Whether it is being in a state of undress or the various poses, there are many different attributes of a boudoir session that may incur a reaction. If this is something that you do not want to show in your images we can easily take a break from shooting and resume once you are ready. The goal during our session is for you to be as comfortable as possible.
