Boudoir Photography- Sensuality Made Explicit

Though it peeps into a woman’s bedroom it can hardly be labeled as ‘vulgar’. A French word meaning a woman's bedroom or dressing room, Boudoir photography is all about sensuality than "sexy". In the strictest sense, it is about the "getting ready" photographs of a bride and her party in the dressing room before a wedding. The human mind loves puzzles and boudoir photography does just that – it invokes curiosity. Though it seldom includes nudes it is a sharp contrast to pornography. While Pornography is a stark and records nudity or sexual acts produced simply to invoke sexual feelings, true boudoir photography does not necessarily have to be immodest.

Here are some tips that professionals follow to take tasteful boudoir photographs.

 

  • As the purpose is to generate a sensual portrait without becoming showy and rough, therefore more is often less here. A minor turn of the head and shoulder or a relaxed pose on a chaise lounge can create the magical sensuality. Experiments with angles also go a long way in lending a sensual stroke to a portrait.

  • Lighting should never create harsh shadows though clear colors are sought-after. Soft lighting adds to the sense of intimacy in the photographs contrary to that overly strong lighting that invoke feeling of intrusion.

  • Covering the body can be much more effective than revealing it. "Modest" negligees partially covered with sheer robes can grab the attention of the mind for much longer. If nudity is used then it is better to show the nudity only in part.
