You might think your home is not suitable for a beauty and boudoir photoshoot, but with a bit of thought we can almost certainly find lots of areas that we can use for some great boudoir images. Almost any room in the house can be a set - the bedroom, the bathroom, the dining room, the lounge - even the kitchen. You could be laying on the bed, sitting in an armchair, positioned on the dining table, standing in the shower or posing on the kitchen worktop. I can also supply backdrops and colourful throws so that the pictures won't even look like they were taken at your house. Whatever size residence you have, we can find a way to create some amazing images.

The short answer is - anybody. If you're over 18 years of age with a sense of fun, then you can experience an empowering and life-affirming photoshoot. I work with people of all ages, sizes, sexualities, physical abilities and looks. And, although most of my clients are women, men can have a go too. Beauty and boudoir photography is not just about capturing your outer beauty, in fact I would say that's not the most important goal. A successful shoot should capture something of your inner radiance and strength - you should look at the pictures and see your real self in them. If you want to, then nothing should stop you having a beauty and boudoir shoot. If there are aspects of your body that you would rather not show, then I can help you to pose and use props to cover those areas. Skin blemishes and scars can also be removed in post-production if that is what you would like. If you'd like to give it a go, don't let your inner voice talk you out of it. Get in touch and we can talk about your specific requirements. ​ ​

A milk bath is our of our most popular creative shoots, and creating this look might be less complicated than you think. We fill the bath with warm water, just deep enough to cover your body. Milk is then added to the bath to achieve the required level of opacity. Less milk and it will be translucent, so your body can be seen under the water. More milk and the opacity increases until only parts of your body above the water are visible. Studio lights are set up in the bathroom to ensure the model is well lit and the water looks white and milky. Too little light and the water can look grey. When shooting a milk bath set you can wear a lacey or light-weight dress, lingerie, be nude or be covered by a sheer fabric cloth. You then get in to the bath and assume your first pose. It is only at this point that flowers, fruit, foliage, candles or other floating items are added to the bath. The photographer stands over the bath to take the images. As different poses are adopted it is usually necessary to reposition the floating items as they move or sink under the water. And that's it. Once the pictures are edited some amazing images can be created. If you'd like to try it, book a Creative Photoshoot with us and we'll produce some stunning milk bath images of you. ​ ​

Everybody that decides to have a beauty and boudoir photoshoot has their own reasons for doing it, but here are a few of the most common reasons.
