In the last couple of years I've been seeing more and more photographers offering boudoir sessions for brides to be or even newlyweds. The basic idea is a private, tasteful photography shoot of the bride that has a stylized theme that can be anything from super sexy to super romatic to super playful. Think lots of lingerie, bedroom scenes, full on hair and make up, fun props like thigh-high stockings, football jerseys or even cupcakes- whatever goes. The bride typically gifts the groom with an album of these secret photos for the wedding or for an anniversary. All the boudoir sessions that I have seen on wedding blogs (brave girls to put out their dressed down photos online!) have been all female shoots. That's what boudoir meant to me, specifically a one person sexy shoot.
Then I saw this amazing engagement boudoir shoot thanks to Well Groomed Blog and I kind of fell in love with this idea. A couples boudoir session that is very playful, intimate and romantic at the same time. This is such a great option for low key couples who are not interested in the highly stylized engagement shoots. And these photos are sweet enough to show off to friends & family. So if that sounds like you, this is another great option for engagement shoots!
