Taking Boudoir Photography Bali

It's not that simple.

However, boudoir is not as simple or contrived as taking a photo of yourself in your underwear. In fact, the proper boudoir photography experience usually begins with a consultation (often several in fact) and can continue with many other pre-shoot activities such as wardrobe shopping with the photographer and/or assistants, creating mood boards of images that inspire you in your session, an elaborate and pampered hair and makeup session immediately prior to shooting, some boudoir specialists offer wine and snacks before the shoot, and of course the shoot itself. Following the shoot, further meetings are often scheduled to review the images and select finals for printing (such as albums, enlargements, etc.) and perhaps a final meeting to personally deliver the final product(s). A boudoir photographer can easily commit as many as 30 total hours to a client after all is said and done.

• Has never posed for a camera beyond family, school or vacation photos.
• Has never posed in front of a camera in anything but being fully clothed.
• Has never posed in front of a camera in intimate apparel.
• Is generally a bit nervous to utterly frightened of posing in intimate apparel on camera, let alone "looking sexy".
• Spends some or no time on their physique because they don't pose in front of cameras for a living.
• Are mostly in their late 20's or older.
