03 Jul Guest Blog: What Is Boudoir Photography by Vanessa van Straaten
What is Boudoir Photography????
If you’re googling, it says:
Boudoir photography is a photographic style featuring intimate, romantic, and sometimes erotic images of its subjects in a photographic studio, bedroom or private dressing room environment, primarily intended for the private enjoyment of the subject and his or her romantic partners. Wikipedia
However, I think the best answer would come from a Boudoir Photographer!
Boudoir photography is all about women celebrating their and being comfortable in their own skin. And then, become confident enough to plaster those images wherever she damn well pleases..
It’s not just about posing in your sexy undies, or even nude….. (gasp!!) It’s all about the feelings it evokes, something that stirs up inside you that is screaming to get out.. It’s daring, fun and so very exciting!!
It really changes the way a woman looks at herself, and in turn, acts. She becomes so powerful, at ease with herself, and has once again the belief of self worth…
Is a Boudoir Shoot really for you?
Boudoir photography is generally not for professional models, or people that are used to being in front of the camera.. It’s for women like myself, or maybe you?, who doesn’t get their hair and make up done daily, for a photoshoot..
You want to be out of your comfort zone for magic to start happening… What do they say about comfort zones?? Nothing ever grows there!!
And that, beautiful people, is what BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY is all about!
You are beautiful. You are powerful. You are a WOMAN!
It’s time to step into the woman you were meant to be…and feel sexy doing it!
How many hours every day are you working? Running how many businesses? Taking care of the mini humans, teaching them, feeding them, loving them, running them around to various sporting activities, parties, and general nurturing, and then you also have hubby! And, most of us have homes that always need cleaning (mostly due to said kids and hubby :D) cooking, shopping… and the list could go on for quite some time…. You get it though, right?
You are only one person!
It’s time to take a step back and put yourself at the top of this list… The others can wait.
You can’t pour from an empty cup…
So allow me to take you on a journey to get your sexy back!!
A day all about YOU, relax, be pampered, have a drink, have a laugh, get glammed up, hair, makeup – the works!!
As you slide on into your sexy clothes, you’ll soon realise you were made for this…
You’re going to feel a glamorous, and confident wave of energy rush over you.. Yes, this is still you, just a side you haven’t seen in a long while, if ever..
If you have any doubt at all, they will all be gone as you are guided throughout the whole shoot, right down to your fingertips..
Be prepared for movie-star-like attention, I guarantee you will feel a million bucks!
You will instantly fall in love with the images you see before you, and it’s all you baby, how did you not know you could look this fabulous?!?
These gorgeous images will be hanging on your walls in no time, a constant reminder for you of the strong woman you are!
Boudoir Photography is all that, and more…
An experience to remember
Definitely a bucket list item, and definitely something that every woman should do!!
Think weddings, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, anniversaries, divorce parties, Valentines day, birthdays, Mother’s day, or just because….
