Why a Boudoir Session Should Be on Your st. louis Summer Bucket List

 

Summer has a way of waking us up. The sun lingers longer, the days feel lighter, and suddenly we find ourselves saying “yes” to things we might normally put off. We take spontaneous road trips. We dance at festivals and concerts. We wear the dress, book the flight, jump in the lake. There’s a playful, fearless energy in the air—a reminder that life is meant to be fully lived. And if there’s one thing that belongs right there on your summer bucket list, it’s a boudoir session.


Summer is about feeling free and shedding layers—physically and emotionally. It’s about letting your skin breathe. A boudoir session is more than just beautiful photos; it’s an experience that invites you to reconnect with your body, your confidence, and your story. Whether you’re stepping into this shoot to celebrate a milestone, to reclaim your power, or simply because you deserve to feel amazing, there’s no better time than now.


The Saint Louis golden hour hits different when you’re wrapped in lace, basking in soft, dreamy sunlight that flatters and glows. Whether we’re shooting in-studio or capturing that sultry, sun-kissed look with natural light, summer lends itself to boudoir in a way that feels effortlessly sensual and gorgeously intimate.


And let’s not forget the vibe. Summer is bold. It’s electric. It’s sweaty skin, messy hair, bare feet, and unapologetic joy. Your boudoir shoot can reflect all of that—carefree, glowing, and wild in the best way. Think citrus-inspired color palettes, soft linens, straw hats, sheer robes, swimsuits, florals, or even nothing at all. This is your space to explore, to express, and to be celebrated.


Maybe this is the summer you do something brave. Something just for you. Maybe it’s the season you stop saying “maybe someday” and finally say “yes” to an experience that leaves you feeling empowered, radiant, and proud. A boudoir session is laughter between poses, deep breaths before the shutter clicks, and those quiet, beautiful moments where you truly see yourself in a different light.


So as you're writing out your summer plans—pool days, weekend getaways, STL rooftop drinks, backyard BBQs—leave a little space for something transformative. Something bold. Something intimate. Something unforgettable.


This summer, say yes to you. Say yes to feeling beautiful in your skin. Say yes to documenting your strength, your softness, your spark.
