You’ve booked your boudoir session and you couldn’t be more excited! Now, you’re wondering how to prepare. Figuring out what to eat the day of your photoshoot can be tough, but we’ve got you covered. Here are our top tips for what to eat come photoshoot day.
Stay Hydrated
First and foremost, drink water! Keep yourself hydrated throughout the time leading up to your shoot. If you need a caffeine boost – skip the carbonated energy drinks. Opt for a revitalizing green tea instead!
Don’t Eat Bloating Foods
It’s important to know what foods affect you and in what way. Keep away from foods that tend to cause bloating – like alcohol, dairy products and gluten. We suggest cutting down on added sugars leading up to your shoot too, as they can crash your energy.
Don’t Skip Meals
Start the morning with a healthy and energizing meal that will get you going! Oatmeal, eggs, avocados, and berries are all great breakfast food options that won’t make you feel sluggish from the get go. Chicken, turkey and fish are great sources of protein to include in your diet too, for later in the day.
Stay Energized
Snacks like almonds, walnuts, dark chocolate and dried or fresh fruits – like berries, bananas, oranges or watermelon – are easy ways to stay energized throughout the day between meals. You could also try incorporating some chia seeds into a smoothie or some no bake snack bites – chia seeds boost energy and help you feel full so you don’t overeat.
Overall, stay in tune with your body – drink water when thirsty, eat when you’re hungry and just be mindful of what you’re eating and how it affects you! By following these tips, you’ll walk into your boudoir session feeling energized, confident and ready to make the most out of your photoshoot.
