Boudoir Photos



Recommended Posts

Figured the powder Room was a good place for this....

As a WTG gift to myself, I've scheduled a boudoir photo session next week with a really amazing photographer. I've seen many women on this site list this as a reward for themselves-- I thought this was a brilliant idea... Something to make you feel beautiful and sexy--- but now I just feel nervous. haha. I'm wondering how Ill explain that I don't want to accentuate my batwings or loose skin??? lol

And now I've been practicing my "sexy face"... Yeah, not so sexy. lol

Good luck to me!

Hmm maybe try parting your lips -- just ever so slightly? :)

If you feel sexy, it will show through the lens. As far as your imperfect areas.... let the photographer know. He/she will work around it.

Good luck and enjoy! :)

I'm a photographer, and my suggestion is to be YOU. The lens does not lie. If your photographer is a good one, he/she will direct you. Don't worry, enjoy it. Good luck!!

I've been a portrait photographer for years and I say absolutely do it!

Maybe see if you can grab a cup of coffee with your photographer before the shoot to discuss any concerns you might have. Just be honest about what worries you might have then talk about what looks you want to go for. Some women also find it's easier to have a female photographer for boudoir too.

Good luck! I'm sure you will rock it. The best thing you can wear is confidence.

I did this a month or so ago. It was fun and the pictures turned out beautiful. I did tell the photographer I did not want a close up or any kind of photo that would show my "wings". It all turned out good. I was really uncomfortable during the session but the photographer was really good at putting me at ease. I recommend this to anyone!

My shoot is in just a couple hours and I'm more excited than nervous... Which is great! I just plan on having fun now. :)

Eek!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
