Download or read book Shooting Boudoir at Home written by Terry Allen and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many women go to a professional photographer to get boudoir photos taken; however, some women are too uncomfortable to do so. Yet, they would still like to have beautiful sexy photos of themselves for that special person in their life. Why not learn to take sexy photos of your wife or girlfriend yourself and share the experience together? In this book I will teach you how to take sexy pictures without expensive cameras and equipment. No need to rent a professional studio, you can do it in the comfort of your own home. Ever wonder why all the pictures you take look like "snapshots" instead of professional images? I'll teach you how to fix that so that your pictures look just as good as the ones you pay a photographer hundreds of dollars for. It doesn't matter if you have an expensive camera or just a cell phone camera, I'll teach you how to make the most of what you have. However, if you do have an SLR that gives you manual control, you will have better creative control of your photographs and can achieve better results. What about lighting? Do you need thousands of dollars' worth of lighting equipment to take great photos? No, I will teach you how to use existing light to take great photos. However, I will also teach you how to use lighting equipment and recommend where you can get some decent lights for very cheap. What about Photoshop? Do you need to spend hundreds of dollars on expensive software to edit your photos? Nope. I will teach you how to do basic editing with free software! My goal in this book is to teach you the basics of photography, lighting, posing and photo editing to empower you to create beautiful boudoir photos in the comfort of your own home (and maybe even help you build a stronger relationship as you and your partner work on this together).

Download or read book Elegant Boudoir Photography written by Jessica Lark and published by Amherst Media. This book was released on 2014-05-13 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating passionate boudoir portraits is a many-layered process. If done effectively, you are not only taking a picture but you are telling a story. The finest boudoir photography creates an intimate moment that the subject can share with someone special. In this book, Jessica Lark details how she created her award-winning style and successful boudoir studio. For Lark, a boudoir shoot is more than just posing and lighting, it is an experience. A big part of that boudoir experience is the studio. The entirety of the intimate experience you are crafting for your clients is built on the foundation of authenticity they feel your space has. The comfort and inspiration that the subject feels from the space comes through in the photographs. Lark believes that the photographer and the experience inspire the women to create something beautiful to photograph. In order to master the art of seduction and create the boudoir experience it’s necessary to provide this intimate space. In an age where uninspired men’s magazine photo spreads and salacious social media pictures are what are considered sensual, Lark strives to create something alluring, inspired and seductive. This book has been created with the professional boudoir photographer in mind, those with the passion to create seductive portraits. She shares the secrets of her successful business, tips and strategies for creating both an environment for capturing beautiful photos and building a comfort level and relationship with clients that keeps them coming back for more. The intricacies of lighting, posing, hair, make-up, wardrobe, props and sets are covered. Separate chapters are devoted to her simple yet effective lighting and posing styles. When done well, artful posing not only flatters a woman’s features and diminishes any flaws, but it also looks natural, as if she is not posing at all. Lark uses lighting to add dramatic nuances to her shoots, creating shadows, depth or accenting specific details. You can be as creative with lighting as you are with hair, make-up, posing or set design. The concept of seduction is presented by Lark not just in her work but across everything she does with her business: website, social media, studio, products & services, personal interactions. Creating a cohesive experience from introduction, through the shoot, to selecting the final portraits is a cornerstone of Lark’s vibrant business. This book presents many gorgeous and sensual portraits capturing many moods and styles within boudoir: delicate, sensual, provocative, glamorous, vintage, pregnancy, erotic, bridal and avant-garde to name a few. Presented in a lush and easy to follow format, this book provides the instruction and inspiration to create stunning portraits that any woman would want. Master the basics concepts presented and execute them flawlessly for stunning boudoir photos every time.
Download or read book Sexy Curves written by and published by Amherst Media. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Boudoir” photographs are intimate images created of a woman in a private (read intimate) space. The term “boudoir,” in translation, means “bedroom,” and images created in the boudoir style—whether they are indeed created in a woman’s boudoir or in a makeshift bedroom within the walls of a photographic studio—are strictly feminine. The subjects may be adorned in fine lingerie, or perhaps may be shown in the act of dressing—or undressing. The images are sensual, flirty, and always beautiful. Clients book boudoir sessions to celebrate their sensuality and femininity. For some, the goal is to document a special phase in life or simply to find a new way to see herself. Other women seek to book a boudoir session with the goal of providing a significant other with a highly personal and perhaps playful gift. Regardless of her motivation, her expectation is that her photographer will be able to amplify her assets, minimize any perceived figure flaws, and create a beautiful, evocative work of art. In order to meet—and exceed—her clients’ expectations, photographers must have a wealth of technical knowledge (just which camera angles, exposure settings, lens selections, and lighting patterns will create the desired look?) and a facility with coaxing form-flattering poses that lengthen legs, whittle waistlines, enhance the bust, and somehow look and feel natural, not contrived. The expression that is elicited must suit the mood of the image, too. And, of course, there are fragile egos at play. Yes, working with a scantily clad subject under the scrutiny of a lens is a tall order. Sadly, each of those concerns can seem magnified when working with the plus-sized boudoir subject. In this book, Tammy Warnock presents a tangible, easy-to-follow recipe for creating va-va-voom images of plus-size clients that celebrate every sexy curve. She introduces readers to 60 real-life subjects and investigates the intricate details of conceptualizing and crafting a sensational plus-size boudoir session. For each session presented for review, readers will learn about the client’s objectives (Why did she book the shoot? What was the mood or feeling or theme she had in mind?). Tammy will share the strategies she used to create rapport with the client, boost her confidence, and ensure a positive, praise- (and referral!) worthy experience. The artistic elements of the shot (backdrops, props, and styling) and corrective posing and lighting strategies are detailed as well, culminating in an inspiring and instructional framework that readers will rely on whenever any boudoir subject calls for services.

Book excerpt: Boudoir and Nude photo book 8.5 X 8.5" 120 pages colors book inside with artistic cover designed by Ya. My name is Jantira Namwong. I am a female Boudoir and Nude photographer from Thailand. I started my photography as a way of empowering women in their life, work, relationships, etc... I became a Boudoir and Nude female photographer by chance 7 years ago after I had been in architectural photography for a few years. I was working for other people and companies until I became bored of being someone else's employee. I wanted to be independent and start my own business. I already had knowledge of photography and began looking for which possible path would make a good career. I accidentally discovered Boudoir photography while searching the Internet and realized right away that as a woman I could also make images of beautiful women wearing lingerie in their changing room. Right away, this business idea clicked as something to do as a female! After shooting Boudoir for two years, I then expanded my package to offer clients Nude session too. The results were amazing! After working in this business for a while, I realized that every woman loves to see themselves as sexy and beautiful while wearing lingerie. They love having their pictures taken while nude to feel and connect with their bodies and to love themselves more. They also wanted to share these images with their intimate partner, and sometimes with their friends or social media to show the world how beautiful she is ... "Confidence is Sexy". In this photo book I will show you Boudoir and Nude photos from my collections and talk about how I feel to photograph nudes? I will also talk about how female empowerment is very good for men's well-being. Also, what do I think would be the perfect? My photographs shown here are from photo sessions with my models that work with me privately and also from my workshop I organized for photographers from different countries who came to Thailand to join my sessions. I will also discuss the difference between Boudoir and Nude photography, and how they could be used to impact our life. Every one of the models in this book is beautiful and sensual in their own way. What they have in common is that they all use their sensuality to become empowered in their life, career, and relationships. This, ultimately, what Boudoir and Nude photography is all about! It allows us to see our sensuality as an expression of confidence and empowerment, not just for women, but for men, too. I hope you enjoy this photo book! Thank you! Jantira Namwong (YA)
