Today we have a special guest blog written by Adam & Eve. Thanks for the article and hopefully it will help some of you gals who have been feeling a bit nervous about jumping in!
A boudoir photo shoot can be a great gift for both your partner and yourself. It shows the love and lust you have for him or her, as well as the confidence you have in yourself. But taking part in a shoot can mean being in-tune with your sexuality, as you will be highlighting your body and the intimacy you share with your partner. But what if you don’t feel very connected with your sexuality or very confident about yourself or your body? What do you do if the idea of a sexy photo shoot makes you feel insecure?
While the thought of exposing yourself during a sexy photo shoot may seem intimidating, it can actually help you get in touch with your sexuality and improve your confidence. Still need help working up the nerve to participate in a sexy photo shoot? Here are a few things you can do to enhance your confidence before you step in front of the camera.
It’s important to have a point of reference to use before you engage in a bedroom photo shoot, so take some time to talk to your partner about what he finds sexy about you. This doesn’t have to be confined solely to physical attributes either, as you can make sure your dynamic personality shines through during your shoot. Not only can this openness with your partner work in your favor when it comes to how you communicate with your mate, it can also strengthen your bond and relationship. In addition, it’ll help you know which features of your body to highlight, and other photo ideas for your shoot.
Feeling unsexy can damage any relationship and diminish your sex life and confidence level. Sometimes you can make simple little changes that will make you feel more beautiful. Perhaps changing your hairstyle, trying a new beauty look, and getting some fresh, bold attire can make you feel your best and look your hottest not only for the shoot, but day to day.
Picking the perfect outfits for your photo shoot is just as important as choosing your wedding venue or a location for your engagement photos. In order to capture the perfect seduction, yet classy photos, take a page from old school Hollywood. No other time period was as glam and alluring as Hollywood circa the 1950s and 1960s, so channel your inner Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, or Natalie Wood as these ladies were the hippest and most fashionable women of their time. Wear your hair in big sexy loose curls or swept back in a sky-high coif akin to the up do made famous by sex symbols like Brigitte Bardot. Pair this look with some spicy lingerie. If you need inspiration, check out Kate Upton’s latest photo shoot in V Magazine and take a look at what popular sensuous wears are out there. Many women brave only wearing a white sheet which puts all the focus on you and your beauty. Boudoir Coterie offers wardrobe consultation for all regular sessions so if you need help deciding which outfits best flatter your figure or will transcend time for a classic and seductive look, be sure to to take advantage of this complimentary service!
Another great way to help you feel like your favorite iconic Hollywood beauty before your shoot is by stepping up your exercise routine. Working out and eating right can help you prepare for a steamy photo shoot in a number of ways, including when it comes to helping you develop a positive self-image before your shoot. Maintaining physical fitness and cultivating a healthy diet will make your skin radiant, improve your circulation, and, most importantly, make your body look amazing. Not only will you appear gorgeous and confident in your seductive photos, but your new look, elevated level of energy, and new-found confidence can even increase your libido, making your relationship with your partner stronger and filled with passion and love.
