It's common for women to wear lingerie when they pose for a boudoir photoshoot, but this isn't the only option. If you feel a little shy in lingerie, there are many other ways that you can choose to dress. It can be fun to evaluate your choices, perhaps by browsing the sample photo gallery on your photographer's website. You may wish to consult your partner to come up with ideas together, but it can alternatively be fun to choose a look on your own and surprise them once your photos are available. Here are some non-lingerie options to wear for your boudoir photoshoot.

Sports Outfit

If you're a sports fan or your partner is a sports fan, and you're doing this photoshoot for them, there are all sorts of options that you can consider. For example, you can buy a sports jersey or T-shirt in a size that suits you and wear it in all sorts of ways. A short garment that exposes some of your midriff can offer the sexy look that you want. Or, you might favor a longer shirt that you can wear with panties but no pants. Some mesh jerseys can be useful for revealing your skin beneath the garment, which may be a look that appeals to you.

Partner's Clothing

Another option that can be creative is to take one or more of your partner's articles of clothing to the photoshoot. Think of things that they enjoy wearing or that have a special significance to both of you. For example, you might choose a shirt that you bought for them during an anniversary vacation. A comfy, old T-shirt or tank top can be a fun choice. If it's large on you, consider pulling the shirt to one side so that your bare shoulder is visible through the large collar hole.

Cosplay Outfit

If you enjoy dressing up in cosplay outfits and attending fan conventions in your area, you may want to think about wearing one of these outfits for your boudoir photoshoot. Many cosplay outfits have a sexy or provocative look, whether it's an outfit with a short skirt and stockings, a shirt that is cut low to reveal cleavage, or something else. You should think about what outfits you have in your collection and choose one that you find will be exciting for your photoshoot. Contact a local boudoir photographer to arrange your session.
