Breaking down the meaning of boudoir Photography
Boudoir photography is a photography session where you wear alluring outfits, lingerie, and dresses, or even go scantily clad & get your photographs taken. The photographer & the model will work together to create beautiful, sexy, confident images of yourself.
The Wikipedia definition is: “Boudoir photography, or sensual photography, is a photographic style featuring intimate, sensual, romantic & 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.”
We think this definition misses the main point of a Boudoir photo session & definitely forgets about the impact on OURSELVES that a Boudoir photo session can have. Only you can explain precisely what having a boudoir session means to you at the end of the day.
Why Is It Defined As Such?
Just because women are not defined by having a romantic partner, the images created during a Boudoir photo session do not automatically involve our potential partner.
Here is the thing: most women struggle with their body image. Not with all the same complaints (too small, too big, too long, too short, cellulite, the shape of the nose, etc.), but the list is endless. No matter how their partner, friends, or family may see their imperfections as what makes them who they are.
The bottom line is, every woman is their own worst critic & picks on something about themselves regardless of how beautiful they are inside and out.
