    I am a little excited, worried, scared. I am not a size "0" kinda girl and i have never taken this kind of pictures. i guess i need encouragement :) I have a number of outfits picked out, taking my wedding shoes and veil with me "just in case".

    Just relax!  At first it seems sort of awkward, but it really gets much easier and you don't even think about what you are doing!

    Have fun!  I'm NOT a skinny minnie (I'm a 12) and my photog did an AWESOME job.  I absolutely LOVE my pics. 

     

    Just have fun and relax.  I had some champagne beforehand and I think it helped take the edge off.

    I am not a size 0 either! I did mine last week and I just had fun with it. The photographer really knew how to capture my assets and hide my flaws. They turned out so beautiful! Definitely recommend 1-2 glasses of wine beforehand, really takes the edge off.

    Good luck!

    Be careful about the wine if you have to drive though, you don't want to be driving under the influence.

    I'm about 18 sizes larger than a size zero and I LOVED taking boudoir pics.  Just knowing how much my DH was going to love them made me feel sexy and relaxing.  Have fun!

    Have fun! I did my boudoir shoot last week and had a blast!  My photographer made me feel at ease and that was so important in capturing great shots.  My favorites are the ones where I'm laughing.

    Hopefully you've talked with your photographer beforehand and discussed what you feel comfortable/uncomfortable with.  Don't do anything that you feel isn't you!

     

    Relax and enjoy!
