Boudoir Blog - Lady In Red
19th September 2015
In: Latest Shoots
I tend to pick up much of my work through word of mouth, recommendations, and images seen through my social media platforms. With my Boudoir work is almost definitely always the case. It's quite a big step for many women to even pluck up the courage to enquire let alone go through with a shoot, quite often the deciding factor in having a Boudoir session themselves is that they have seen someone they know has had a shoot and enjoyed the experience too.
This shoot was no different. The eagle-eyed amongst you may recognise the backdrop to one of two of these photos, as this lovely lady's sister was the subject of a photo shoot earlier this year. I'll let you look through my boudoir gallery and news/blog section to see if you can spot who it is!
Although the location was the same, and there are similarities (requests of 'I would like a shot like that' etc) I tried to make the shoot feel different. After all, everyone is unique and to do a carbon copy of a previous shoot is not what I am about, and certainly not what the client would want!
Earlier the weather was very cloudy and dull, meaning I was looking at having to use artificial lighting for the photo session, but thankfully the sun did appear, meaning I could work with my preferred ambient lighting to produce these boudoir shots.
Shooting into the light helped produce the high key feel to the image above. Over exposing the background to white makes the whole shot far more simple in composition.
I love this particular image. It's a subtle twist on the classic 'lying down' pose, and the red lingerie just accents it perfectly.
Not looking at the camera is a must for some people. Not everyone feels comfortable looking into the lens, the Boudoir genre is perfect for these types of images.
If you are interested in a Boudoir shoot, please contact me through my Boudoir Web Page. There are also links to my brochure (which contains all the information you will need) and to the Boudoir gallery so you can see how fantastic many other ladies look in front of the lens.
