1. Get creative while showing off some skin at this airy, contemporary studio in Oakland, CA

Show off your creativity in an airy, contemporary photo studio. The great thing about booking a photography studio for your classy boudoir photoshoot ideas is the versatility of looks you can experiment with within one space.

For example, check out the variety of shots you can create in this modern, airy Oakland studio by browsing through the photos. This space offers so many great lighting arrangements and backdrops to show off your unique personality in your shoot!

One of the best parts about booking a Peerspace venue for any project you have on your plate is that you can read reviews from past renters before booking. And this Oakland studio has plenty of glowing testimonials! Here’s just one, so you can see what we mean: “It’s a great space to shoot small daylight shoots. Very clean and plenty of natural light options to work with. The host is very courteous and attentive. Plus the parking is easy.”

2. Show off your moves while experiencing a sexy rain room in LA

Rain rooms are one of the most unique yet classy boudoir photoshoot ideas out there! They are kind of like big showers you can use for your photoshoot, with the added bonus of controlled lighting (plus strobe lights to add thunderstorm effects!) and tons of space to move around in.

We especially love this Los Angeles rain room warehouse for your photoshoot needs. It boasts 12,000 square feet of space and has no natural lighting, meaning you can control the strobe lighting to suit your classy boudoir shoot needs.

“The studio is absolutely amazing, so many options for great pictures,” shares a Peerspace reviewer. “The stage itself, the rain, a gorgeous daylight, and the option for blackout, a lot of props, such a helpful and friendly staff, the best experience in the world! Highly recommend!)”

3. Head outdoors and luxuriate in a sensual milk bath

Get some amazing shots as you take a soak in a beautiful milk bath venue! For example, can you imagine a more sensual shoot than posing in this charming vintage bath under the flowing, sheer curtains of a bamboo pergola?

When you book this venue on Peerspace, the host even offers a clean robe and towel for your shoot and can provide a variety of fantastic add-ons like a fresh flower crown or Polaroid camera and film for some sexy instant pics in the tub!

Check out what a model shared after booking time at this vintage bath venue: “Leslie could not have been kinder & her space is absolutely breathtaking! The bath was hot & ready for us & stayed comfortably warm throughout the duration of our 2 hour shoot despite the setting sun & fog rolling in. She left towels & a robe for us & was nearby for anything we needed.”

5. Ensure glamorous results when you book a luxury penthouse in Atlanta

If you don’t live in a luxury mansion, it doesn’t mean you can’t book one for your boudoir shoot! Go ahead, indulge in a little luxury. Pose on a faux bearskin rug, get cozy on plush sofas, and stretch out on a glamorous bed.

Renting the most jaw-dropping spaces for your boudoir photoshoot doesn’t have to break the bank either. For example, you can book this luxurious penthouse in Atlanta for just $85 an hour! It’s 700 square feet of electric opulence and pure style.

In fact, a Peerspace user who booked a couples’ photoshoot here shared the following review: “Great space, matches the pictures. Host was very responsive and accommodated my team very well! I will certainly keep this on my radar for the near future.”

6. Create an angelic feel in a former church-turned-studio in Philadelphia

Stained glass windows, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and high-end finishes. Can you imagine a more angelic setting for your boudoir shoot than a 110-year-old church-turned-Peerspace venue?

This gorgeous suite in Philadelphia offers tons of natural lighting, beautiful boudoir furniture, and absolutely stunning architecture. Just goes to show you can find just about any type of photoshoot venue on Peerspace!

In the simple summation of a Peerspace reviewer: “The space and service was great!”

Light up your boudoir shoot with a neon theme! Neon is a fun, raw way to showcase your beauty, and Peerspace offers so many fun neon-themed locations for you to book your shoot.

For instance, check out this 800-square-foot neon paradise in Los Angeles, CA. It features boudoir-perfect bedding, a velvet lounge area, a Playboy magazine wall, a feminine vanity area, and neon katakana signage above the bed. Since it’s a black box studio, the neon lights really pop, as will your photos!

In the straightforward words of a photographer in his Peerspace review of this boho-rustic space: “I always enjoy working here it’s such a dreamy space.”

10. Dare to be bright and bold at this natural light studio in Huntington Beach

An all-white space can create such an ethereal feel for your boudoir shoot. Look for a space with classy yet sexy furniture — like the ornate day bed with fluffy white bedding in this Huntington Beach natural light studio.

You’ll also want tons of natural lighting, and white walls can help to increase light reflection. Along with the bed, you can pose on the wicker chair and in front of the windows. Bring it all together with a sexy white outfit that’ll help your hair, eyes, and skin perfectly pop in photos!

In the words of a Peerspace reviewer: “This was my first time shooting @ this studio and was absolutely blown away. The space was nice and clean and the host was great! I loved how bright the studio was and how accessible parking is. Definitely booking again :)”

11. Or opt for a dark and moody vibe at this luxury noir bedroom set in Mesquite

13. Embrace vintage vibes at a gorgeous, boho LA home

One of the best things about boudoir photography is that you can customize your shoot with a fun theme. We love the idea of a retro boudoir shoot since you can guarantee to make it eye-catching and super sultry.

For instance, you can book this gorgeous boho home in Los Angeles that boasts several retro boudoir-perfect spaces. It includes indoor and outdoor spaces, all beautifully furnished with distinct vintage decor and gorgeous lighting. Frolic outdoors amongst the mature oak trees, curl up in the luxe sitting room, and feel the heat while posing in front of the vintage fireplace. It’s all possible here!

Check out this helpful review from a Peerspace user who booked a shoot at this home: “The location is gorgeous, there’s too many good nooks and crannies to shoot in I wish we’d had 2 days instead of 1. Keep in mind the main entrance to the property is located on a very steep hill! Although we rented on a very hot day, the tree cover helped cover us from the sun and the AC inside the house gave great relief. We had a great experience!”
