People look at boudoir pictures and see different things. Some see them as sexual, others see them as romantic and many see them as inspirational. The art of boudoir photography is about so much more than the photos though.
The boudoir experience itself is a transformation for clients. Helping a woman to see herself in a new light and recognize her natural, unique beauty is life-changing. It offers them a chance to step outside their comfort zone in a supporting, judgement free setting and succeed at being themself.
The art of boudoir photography
It takes a special person to photograph boudoir. The boudoir photographer needs to understand how to help different body types look and feel their best.
One day the photographer may be photographing a professional model. The next day, the client may be a curvy full figured lady. From plain-jane to soccer mom to grandmother, each woman who enters the studio needs to feel and look beautiful & sexy.
A professional boudoir photographer understands how to coach every client into poses that flatter their shape. They know how to use both natural and professional lighting to create mood and shadows. Their photos are full of emotion and sensuality.
Confidence is key …
When clients enter my boudoir studio, they are usually nervous. In fact, if you aren’t nervous, it would be strange, unless you’ve had a boudoir shoot in the past.
The saying “Beauty is confidence applied directly to the face.” is true.
So how can you be confident for the photo session?
That too is the job of your boudoir photographer.
It is their job to help calm your nerves by helping you every step of the way. You aren’t expected to know how to pose or look. The best boudoir photographers know how to instruct you into the right positions and looks.
You’ll be shown some of the photos as they start. Seeing that you can nail these poses and do look amazing will automatically increase your confidence level.
By the end of your session you will feel like the sexiest super model in the world! It’s a confidence boost that can not be beat!
Boudoir is popular …
As more and more women learn about the art of boudoir photography it has gained popularity. The sessions help them feel good about the way they look, overcoming body image issues for many.
Clients have boudoir sessions for a variety of reasons. Some are creating wedding, anniversary, holiday or birthday gifts. Others are celebrating milestones including pregnancy, weight loss and birthdays.
My studio has also worked with women who have:
- divorced and want to feel beautiful and desirable again.
- beaten cancer and want to celebrate their body. And
- overcome domestic violence and are healing.
Who has boudoir photoshoots?
Women of all ages, shapes, sizes, weights and ethnicities have boudoir sessions. It isn’t about losing weight or waiting for the perfect time. Boudoir is about celebrating yourself now, where you currently are!
Because most women are unsure of what to expect, they allow their fears to stop them from taking action. There is a lot of interest, but reaching out to a photographer can be intimidating.
It shouldn’t be that way. Boudoir is not vulgar, it is a chance to see yourself as beautiful and sexy. You may not feel that way now, but following the experience you won’t believe the change in yourself.
So many clients tell me they wish they hadn’t been so scared and had gotten the shoot much earlier. If you read boudoir reviews, they all talk about their newfound confidence and how beautiful they look in their photos.
With the right boudoir photographer, your experience will be the same!
The art of boudoir photography is a celebration of you, your body and femininity. It is about feeling confidence and comfortable in your own skin. And it is as easy as reaching out to a qualified photographer who will help you find yourself again.
