WHAT TO EXPECT
Christina Wehbe’s Huntington Beach boudoir studio is an experience on it’s own. Expect ocean views and cool breezes. The studio comes equipped with elegant chairs or beds set up for different scenes and settings. If you don’t feel comfortable posing in the studio, you can always book a hotel room or choose another private location.
Oftentimes she will provide champagne and snacks so that you can fuel up and gain a little liquid courage for your shoot. You can also provide a playlist of your favorite music to get in the zone.
A Boudoir Photo Shoot typically involve lingerie, but that doesn’t mean that you have to start shopping for a lacy undergarment. Think about what kind of look you’re going for, such as sexy, playful, pinup or glam.
You also don’t have to pose in your underwear; you can take great boudoir photos in a modest outfit, such as jeans and a tank top. If you know your loved one loves the way you look in a favorite team’s jersey, pair it with cute shorts for a playful and cute look.
If you want to channel your inner pinup model, there are plenty of outfit choices that range from barely there to full coverage.
Christina also has wardrobe options for you to choose from, and she’ll help you decide what looks best for the look you’re trying to achieve.
Props and accessories such as jewelry, masks, toys, stockings, garters, umbrellas and anything else you can think of make the photos even more special and exciting. Talk to yourChristina beforehand to see what she has and what you should bring yourself.
The fun part, you’ll need to have your hair and makeup done. Christina’s Huntington Beach boudoir studio offers on-site hairstylists and makeup artists who will make you over as part of your photography package. Fake eyelashes and hair extensions are commonly used, while makeup styles can be as natural or heavy as you’d like. Remember that Christina and her stylists will have expert opinions on your beauty look, but you have the final word on your makeover. Feel free to bring your own products that you know work well, or let the stylists work their magic! If you’ve done research ahead of time on the look you’re interested in, bring photos so that they can see what you’re envisioning.
Boudoir photographers are well-versed in the different types of poses that will look great in photos and Christina is an expert. Arched backs, leg lifts and torso twists are three techniques used to achieve sexy poses, and you’ll likely spend a lot of time lying on your back or stomach. Christina will direct you throughout the shoot and make suggestions and demonstrations for expressions, gazes and moods to try. This is your time to let go and enjoy!
