How many times have you had a fantasy in the best boudoir photography style? Surely many, because this is the fantasy of most contemporary men. And this photographic genre is very striking and sensual, which is why it is highly sought after by both men and women. In this sense, we want to explain to you (in case you still don't know) what this term means.
Boudoir photography is a term that was loosely coined in France to refer to women who get ready in their boudoir or bedroom and photograph themselves or are photographed while doing so. The main characteristic of this trend is that the models must be dressed only in their underwear. This can often be exotic, full of embellishments, lace and such things to make it very sensual.
So, when taking boudoir photos, art and elegance must be guaranteed. This should not be seen as something vulgar but rather sophisticated and sublime. Because both the model and the photographer must ensure that each step of the theory is put into practice to represent the genre in its maximum expression. At Minette's we put all this into practice and much more, so we are going to tell you everything we know about it.
Attitude plays a fundamental role
At Minette's we work with real women and we often come up against typical female inhibitions. In the case of boudoir photography this is not so far off and we focus on providing confidence to work in the model's attitude. In this way, she can convey the power and control that these types of photographs communicate.
Although some arrive very focused, empowered in their attitude and as soon as they get into character the session flows perfectly. This is why we are convinced that to do boudoir photography the model's attitude is fundamental. She must always transmit a lot of power and this can only be achieved through an explosive personality.
Likewise, in every photo shoot we try to ensure that comfort is never lost, we make our models feel like family so that the work is more enjoyable. This not only facilitates relationships but is completely reflected in the final result obtained.
The limit is the nude
When doing boudoir photography, you should always take care of the boundaries. There is a very thin line between sensual and vulgar, and if this genre borders on vulgarity, it loses its essence. As we have already mentioned, for photography to be perfectly achieved, it has to be elegant, artistic, sublime. If for some reason it borders on pornographic, then the objective has been lost and it must be reoriented.
It is worth noting that fine lingerie is used in boudoir and should never be absent. At least one piece should be kept on the model that gives that sophisticated detail to the scene being recreated. Thus, we could say that the limit in boudoir is total nudity, a line that is not crossed, but rather remains there, latent, suggestive, threatening.
You can always play around with the lingerie and get rid of a few pieces throughout the shoot. The model can be in just pantyhose and stockings and with a little help from lighting, she would look perfect. It's all about working with the environment and integrating the model into the story you want to tell.
The choice of lingerie is key
Knowing how important lingerie is in the boudoir, we must also know that the choice of the type of lingerie is key in the session. It must not only be suitable for the model but must blend in with the environment, it must be in keeping with the space and it must be easy to maneuver.
Models usually end up taking off some of their lingerie, so you should have several items that allow you to take them off. The more you have, the better, because you can reveal yourself just like you would if you were removing the petals from a flower. But always keep in mind the principle of not nudity.
Many models start this type of session with a shirt on to gain confidence. And as the session progresses, they feel more comfortable and gradually let go of the pieces. In boudoir photography, you can also play with the body, show and not show, be suggestive, be daring, aggressive, sensual.
Confidence and more confidence
Even if the model is inexperienced, we usually work on the model's confidence so that everything can flow in an ideal way. At Minette's we love creative and empowered women and we try to make our girls grow as women more and more. In this way, we support them to trust in themselves and love themselves as they are.
This is crucial in the art of boudoir photography, as the more confident the model is, the better the poses flow. And the stories tell themselves in each image that is captured. This is why more and more clients book this type of session, as they also love that confident and empowered woman who takes on the world in lingerie.
On the other hand, to manage the level of security and trust, we approach each session with great professionalism. And in all cases we limit our comments with the models to avoid awkward moments or breaking the trust placed in the photographer. In this way we protect our models and guarantee an impeccable final product.
Focus on a goal
When starting a boudoir photo shoot, you should not only consider the story you are going to tell, but also a goal. This will help guide the session if the model is more inclined to show her body. Or if the photographer needs to highlight the face or a certain attribute. This will ensure a better result and the satisfaction of both the client and the model.
