Peek-A-Boo Purple Boudoir | San Jose Glamour & Boudior Photographer

It’s no secret that I am partial to a seductive sexy and love, love, love sheer garments to accent beautiful lingerie. There is definitely something to be said for seduction and having pretty and feminine sweaters or blouses being worn without undergarments or with just a hint of a pretty bra and pantie set showing through, leaves the viewer wanting more. Plus, by layering such pretty fabrics and garments with matching accessories we have so many options for a gorgeous image series as we tease the viewer with a shoulder peek and remove items as we change poses- awesome for building anticipation in an album set! ๐Ÿ˜‰

This post shows some gorgeous purple options. Adding a splash of color can add so much to a session especially if it is complimentary to your skin tone. The first set in this image is a lovely purple sheer sweater with a gorgeous neck line, worn only with a pretty lace pantie. To add some great texture it can be worn with a spicy stiletto like this hot black pair with feather accents and a chunky necklace that draws the eye to your neckline. The second set shows a purple bra and pantie worn under a sheer black blouse, again accented with a colorful pair ofร‚ย  heals and a beautiful hair flower. Heck, if purple is your color, you could easily wear both of these outfits for totally different looks but a very coordinated finish. Add a sexy black chemise or implied nude for a third outfit and you’re all set!

The Beauty Of Boudoir | San Jose Boudoir & Glamour Photography

In recent months I have been putting a little more emphasis on the beauty factor during my shoots. By this I mean capturing those shots that my ladies can show off. These images are sexy, but not too revealing. Sometimes this is done while they are wearing lingerie, like this gorgeous shot of Miss M, who is wearing a slinky negligee that could easily be passed off for a pretty blouse or dress. It’s a beautiful image that could be shared with family and friends or displayed in her home.

The reason that I have been taking the time to include a few images of this style was due to the feedback from clients who have loved their images but wished they had something they could share without the worry of the images being too risquรƒยฉ for public viewing. Let’s face it, most of your boudoir images might be “for your eyes only” but as women, we ALL love the idea of having a gorgeous photo of ourselves to display with pride and why not make that happen while you are looking so dang good!? Our San Jose natural light studio is perfect for this type of portrait too, I swear it makes everyone’s skin look so radiant!

I love this next set, you look so stunning Miss M! (this was a last minute set, I provided the lace top and flower and I love the results!)

Now for those of you thinking “Yeah, but I want some really sexy shots?” Well, of course you do and don’t worry, we get lots of those too. I just wanted to show off the different varieties of images you’ll receive when you book a session with Boudoir Coterie. Besides, sometimes the sexiest images aren’t the most revealing, it’s about feeling gorgeous and when that happens,ร‚ย  the “sexy” soon follows. Here’s a full body view… Smokin’ Hot! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Looking Marvelous | San Jose Bay Area Boudoir Portrait Photographer

The beautiful Miss S is prime example that you don’t have to be a 20-something to rock your photo shoot! As one of my Signature Coterie Girl finalists, she was a natural in front of the camera. She showed off her platinum blonde hair and gorgeous curves with class and style. She was thrilled to be chosen as a finalist as it was a great way to celebrate a birthday milestone(but I’m not going to tell you which one… it’s not my place to divulge that little tid bit) and I was honored to have the chance to work with her. In her entry email she told me:

I am proud of the way I look for may age…I have fun with myself and can let loose…

 

You should be and you certainly did!

Miss S, you are beautiful inside and out, thank you so much for entering this years Coterie Girl search! ๐Ÿ™‚

Dress For Success | San Jose Boudoir Photographer

A “successful” shoot that is.

I like to remind my clients to bring something that isn’t lingerie so we can get some gorgeous shots that she will want to share and won’t blush about(well she might blush a little with the amount of FB “Likes” and comments on her newly uploaded profile picture. Haha). In my last Polyvore fashion inspiration post I may have mentioned that I am not a huge fan of red lingerie. I hope I didn’t get anyones panties in a bunch over that. *snicker* It’s just that in my personal opinion, red lingerie is something to be reserved for the bedroom… in most cases. It’s sexy and fun but rarely does it shout out classy. Sadly, red lingerie often shouts trashy- but not always, so don’t be sending me your hate mailร‚ย  because I have shot some gorgeous gals in lovely red lingerie. Moving right along…

Today I will share two things… a pretty outfit inspiration that is very simple and it shall feature RED lingerie. Yup, you read that right. The trick with red’s is to make sure they match, so if you are wanting to accessorizes with red on red, take your pieces with you when you shop- this includes shoes!

So here is a simple wrap dress and accessory options that would work wonderfully for a few shots that could then be slipped off to reveal some sexy red pieces. How fun would it be to tease him with the undressing shots?! *wink*
