Packing, Hiking & Scouting: How I Prep for Adventure Boudoir Sessions
Adventure boudoir photography doesn’t begin when the camera comes out—it begins long before that, in the planning, the packing, the logistics, and the willingness to hike, scout, and adapt in real time.
In this behind-the-scenes adventure boudoir video, you’ll join me, my assistant, and my model as we drive to, pack for, hike to, and scout Fifth Water Hot Springs in Utah as a potential location for future adventure boudoir sessions. This is a real, unfiltered look at what actually goes into preparing for outdoor boudoir photography in wild, natural locations.
This video is especially valuable if you’re curious about:
• How photographers and models actually prepare for adventure boudoir
• What needs to be packed for hiking-based photo sessions
• Safety considerations for outdoor boudoir photography
• Location scouting for hot springs, waterfalls, and remote environments
• How photographers think through terrain, light, access, privacy, and timing
• What separates casual outdoor shooting from intentional, professional prep
What We Pack for Adventure Boudoir (The Real Education)
One of the biggest misconceptions about adventure boudoir photography is that you just “show up with a camera.” In this video, we spend significant time breaking down exactly what both the photographer and model pack, and why each item matters.
You’ll see:
• Camera gear choices and why lighter isn’t always better
• Backup equipment and redundancy planning
• Clothing, layers, and footwear considerations for hiking models
• Towels, robes, sandals, and hot springs–specific essentials
• Safety items most people don’t think about
• Personal comfort items that make or break an outdoor session
• How packing changes depending on terrain, distance, and weather
This packing portion is the meat and potatoes of this video—whether you’re a photographer learning how to prepare more professionally, or a future client wondering what goes into these experiences behind the scenes.
Hiking to Fifth Water Hot Springs
We hike into Fifth Water Hot Springs together, discussing trail conditions, distance, elevation considerations, and how all of that impacts session planning. This is an honest look at what it means to take boudoir photography out of the studio and into the real world.
Adventure boudoir requires:
• Physical planning
• Environmental awareness
• Respect for public spaces
• Adaptability when conditions change
This video shows how location scouting is not just about finding a “pretty spot,” but about asking the right questions before ever bringing a client there.
Location Scouting for Outdoor Boudoir Photography
Scouting is one of the most overlooked but critical parts of adventure boudoir photography. In this video, we walk through how I evaluate a location before deciding whether it’s appropriate for a future session.
That includes:
• Light direction and timing
• Privacy and foot traffic
• Water access and safety
• Entry and exit points
• Emotional tone of the landscape
• Whether a location supports the experience—not just the image
For Photographers
If you’re a photographer interested in outdoor boudoir, adventure photography, or location-based portrait work, this video is meant to be educational—not curated perfection. You’ll see the real conversations, the problem-solving, and the preparation that happens long before clients ever arrive.
For Future Clients
If you’ve ever wondered what goes into an adventure boudoir session, this video shows the care, planning, and respect that happens behind the scenes. These experiences are thoughtfully built—not rushed—and this is a window into that process.
