This isn't a show-up-and-hope-for-the-best photoshoot. Your experience is planned with you from the start. We talk about what you want from your session, what makes you nervous, what you'd love to wear, how you want to feel, and the images you've always wished you could see of yourself.

Here's The Truth:
You Don't Have to Be "Ready" for Boudoir
Most women don't walk into a boudoir studio feeling completely fearless.
They walk in with questions.
- "What if I don't know how to pose?"
- "What if I hate my stomach?"
- "What am I supposed to wear?"
- "What if I feel awkward?"
- "Should I lose weight first?"
- "What if I've never liked photos of myself?"
Those thoughts are exactly why the experience is guided from beginning to end. Amanda doesn't expect you to arrive knowing what to do in front of the camera. She directs your posture, hands, shoulders, hips, legs, facial expression, and movement throughout the session.
Your job isn't to perform. Your job is simply to show up. Amanda will take care of the rest.
What's Included in Your Boudoir Experience?
A luxury boudoir session at Amanda Marquis Photography is designed so you don't have to figure everything out on your own.
Professional Hair & Makeup
Start your session with professional hair and makeup in the studio. Your look is built around your personal style, whether you want something soft and natural, glamorous, dramatic, or somewhere in between.
Inclusive Client Closet
You'll have access to my client wardrobe with options ranging from XXS through 6XL, plus accessories and styling guidance. You can also bring pieces from home that make you feel amazing. Explore the plus size boudoir experience for wardrobe details across every size.
Fully Guided Posing
You don't need to know a single boudoir pose before you arrive. Amanda guides you from head to toe throughout your session, including body placement, expression, movement, hands, angles, and posture.
90-Minute Photography Session
Your guided photography session gives you time to settle in, explore different looks, and create a range of images without feeling like you're being rushed through the experience.
Same-Day Image Reveal
After your session, you'll get to see your images and choose the photographs and products you love.
Personalized Planning
Your experience starts with a consultation so we understand your vision, comfort level, and goals before the camera ever comes out.
Why Book a Boudoir Photoshoot?
There doesn't have to be one "right" reason.
Some clients book a boudoir photoshoot because they want an unforgettable gift for a partner. Others book after a birthday, wedding, divorce, health journey, career change, pregnancy, body change, or major life transition.
Some have spent years taking care of everyone else and are finally ready to do something entirely for themselves. And some just decide they're tired of waiting.
Boudoir can mark a milestone, celebrate a relationship, reconnect you with a part of yourself, or create photographs that remind you exactly who you were at this moment in your life.
You don't need a dramatic reason. Wanting the experience is enough.
Bridal & Wedding Boudoir
A boudoir album can become an intimate wedding or anniversary gift, but bridal boudoir doesn't have to be only about your partner. For a lot of clients, it's also a way to document and celebrate themselves during a major chapter of life.
Milestone Boudoir
Turning 30, 40, 50, 60, or beyond isn't a deadline for feeling beautiful. Boudoir can be an incredible way to celebrate the body, story, and confidence you have today.
Boudoir After a Life Change
A new chapter can change the way you see yourself. Clients often choose boudoir after divorce, major personal growth, lifestyle changes, or simply realizing they want to reconnect with themselves.

Boudoir Is For
Every Body
You don't need to lose weight before your session.
You don't need a certain body shape.
You don't need to fit into a specific size.
Amanda photographs women across a wide range of sizes, ages, and body types and guides every client through posing, wardrobe, lighting, and expression.
If you're specifically looking for plus size boudoir photography in New Hampshire, Amanda built an entire resource and gallery so you can see what the experience looks like before you ever step in front of the camera.
What Should You Wear for a Boudoir Photoshoot?
One of the most common questions I get is what you're supposed to wear. The answer is that there's no single boudoir uniform. Lingerie is an option, not a requirement.
Depending on your style, your session might include:
- bodysuits
- bra and panty sets
- oversized sweaters
- button-down shirts
- stockings
- robes
- sheets
- heels
- jewelry
- meaningful personal pieces
- something from the client closet
During your wardrobe consultation, we can talk about the looks you love, the areas you want to highlight, how much or how little coverage feels right, and the overall mood you want your session to have.
The goal is never to dress you like somebody else. It's to create a version of the experience that feels like you.
"I Have No Idea How to Pose."
Perfect. You don't need to. Knowing how to pose is Amanda's job, not yours.
During your session, Amanda demonstrates and directs each pose so you're never standing in front of the camera wondering what to do. That includes:
- where to put your hands
- how to angle your shoulders
- what to do with your legs
- where to look
- how to breathe
- when to move
- how to create expression
- how to transition between poses
The difference between an uncomfortable photograph and a beautiful portrait is often direction, lighting, perspective, and experience. You'll get all of it.

Amanda recommends scheduling about 6 to 8 weeks before you need the finished products, especially for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, or holiday gifts. Give yourself extra time during the busy holiday season. Things take longer to produce than people expect.
A supportive female guest 18 or older can come along as your hype person.
