Boudoir with a Bite: Our Favorite Bold Add-On

Let’s Spice Things Up 🔥

Boudoir photography is an incredibly diverse genre, and there’s no one “right” way to style your session! From classic portraiture to fine art nude, retro pin-up to candid, maternity to bridal, fantasy to erotic… boudoir can be as bold or as subtle as you want it to be.

Here at Belle Marie Boudoir, we usually lean toward timeless, classic portraiture, but that doesn’t mean we shy away from turning up the heat. In fact, we love when clients are ready to spice things up and explore a boudoir style that’s a little darker, moodier, and more daring.

One of our favorite accessory add-ons for a bold, sensual boudoir aesthetic is our Bondage Set. Let's explore why we love this set and how you can add it to your boudoir photoshoot!

The Boudoir Secret Weapon: Our Bondage Set

This set brings the drama and transforms your photoshoot into something magnetic and empowering. Think sultry shadows, striking lines, and serious main character energy.

Pair it with lingerie that makes you feel unstoppable, like a strappy black lingerie set, a sheer mesh bodysuit, or even nothing at all. We’ll dim the lights, cue the moody glow, and create boudoir photos that feel mysterious, playful, and powerful.

What’s Included in the Bondage Set?

Our bondage accessories come from the luxury lingerie brand Honey Birdette. The set includes:

• Genuine leather wrist cuffs and collar set

• Gold-tone chain leash

• Two mask options for extra drama

• 
  

All pieces are adjustable, well crafted, and designed to feel secure and comfortable while you hit those powerful poses!

Want to Take It to the Next Level?

If you’re the kind of girl who doesn’t shy away from a little adventure in the bedroom… why not bring that energy into your boudoir photoshoot?

We’ve had clients bring in their own accessories to make the shoot extra personal. In the past we’ve incorporated riding crops, collars, and yes… even a rubber duck flogger (shoutout to that iconic client)!

Looking for a few other styling ideas? Try:

• Stockings or fishnets

• Your favorite pair of heels

• Dark lipstick and smoky eyes

  
  

When styling this set, go with pieces that make you feel powerful, confident, and 100% in control. This bold look is all about embracing your dominance and stepping into your alter ego.

Lighting Sets That Match the Mood

For our bondage set, we’re turning the lights way down. This look pairs best with our moody, dramatic lighting sets, including:

• Dark Silhouette

• Drama Window

• Hexagon Lights

• Liquor Bar Set

• Book Nook (especially for any of those voracious readers who can’t resist a little spice)

These lighting setups enhance the shadows, textures, and sensual energy of this boudoir look, making them perfect for anyone craving photos with intensity and edge.
