One of the hardest gifts to give is wedding gifts, especially if the bride is your sister or best friend. You want to give them something they will always remember and will hold significance in their lives now and in the future. You also want the gift to be beneficial to the husband. Getting something from a list on some registry won’t cut it. These days’ girls are giving gifts that will last a lifetime, boudoir photography.
Boudoir photography is a fun, flirty gift that will always be valued. This gives the bride a chance to show her flirty sensual side. Boudoir photography is one of the newest and hottest gifts of the season! Jessica Chapman a well known Illinois photographer and newest addition to the VIP Bachelorette team says, “I did not hire professional models for these shoots.  These women, all naturally beautiful, are wives, mothers, neighbors and career holders.” Not only can the bride have fun being flirty, but there is also group boudoir where the bride a friends can “take the journey from self consciousness to self revelation together” states Chapman. It creates a unique bonding experience among girlfriends.
Boudoir is not only a gift to give to a bride, but a perfect gift for the groom himself. Most boudoir photographers include photo albums and prints in their pricking’s. Here are some questions with answers that are asked frequently:
What do I wear?
This usually depends on who you hire. Jessica Chapman gives you the option of bringing 3 lingerie choices to your shoot. Others might have different props for you to choose from. Remember when your choosing what to bring, bring something that makes you feel sexy. It is also good to bring different outfits that you can mismatch. Some of the best items to bring are accessories, especially your engagement ring!
Who takes the photos?
Professional photographers take the photos. Some photographers specialize in boudoir and others have boudoir as part of their business. Either way they are both professionals the difference is that a boudoir photographer might have more props that you can use.
Where do you take the photos?
Photos can be taken in studio or at your home depending on the package you choose and who is your photographer. Some photographers are flexible and will let you choose where you want to take them.
When should I schedule a session?
Many brides diet and do a work regime to get ready for the big day. Taking boudoir photos about a week or two before the wedding would be a great way to show off your hard work. It would also be a great way to start off your wedding festivities.
