Bridal Boudoir

The beautiful & intimate wedding gift for your soon to be husband/wife

The Perfect Tease!

Have you ever considered something a little different and doing an Intimate Boudoir Photo Shoot? You could make a gorgeous picture book for your husband to be, full of all your stunning beautiful images of you, OR, you could choose a favourite image and have it enlarged into a stunning wall portrait of you, for him.

My style of photography is subtle, intimate, and glamorous. If you choose to, you could give him a sneak peak of what you would be wearing underneath your wedding dress on the day, or you could choose something new to wear that could be shown on your honeymoon? Pre excitement all day fun for you both!

Something for you both

An Intimate Boudoir Photo Shoot can help you to gain confidence in yourself before the big day, it will show you how beautiful you will look on the day and it can also give you a great self esteem boost too.

If this is something you may be interested in, we could schedule your photo shoot for the same day as your wedding makeup trial day.

The photos can also be used as a daily reminder to not just you, but to the both of you, that you are beautiful and stunning!

FAQs

Find your Portraiture & Glamour related questions answered below. I have also collected all general questions and information you need to know on a FAQs page. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you can't find the answer to your question.

How many outfits can I bring?

You can bring between 3-4 outfits if you can, that will be great and it will give us more of a selection during the shoot. However, if you don’t have that many outfits that is absolutely fine.

We can work with one outfit if need be and use props to change up each photo, for example, a fan or a feather boa, satin sheets or other material pieces.

Will my images be shown Online?

On arrival for your photo shoot, I get you to sit down and read a Model Release form and ask you to sign it. This gives me the copyrights to the photos. However I never do anything with the photos unless you have given me your permission. At the reveal session we go through the photos and discuss which photos you prefer not to be shown on social media or the Internet. Showing or sharing my work that I do helps to raise awareness of my business.
