Today was my second to last shoot before going in for hand surgery next week so I am a little late with today’s Tushy shot. My apologies!
Today we have a gorgeous bridal tushy.
Cute cream lace panties and veil, sure to make any groom race to the alter. 🙂
Now let me ask you this– and I would love to hear from some of you guys out there too… what kind of panties do you like to wear or see on your favorite tushy? Briefs, thong, g-string, boy cut etc… Cotton, lace , satin… ?
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.
Winter might not be quite the time that you’re thinking about taking off your clothes and posing for a photo session, but some of these pieces might just change your mind.
It’s been a while since I’ve done a lingerie post, so I figured it was about time. I have to confess though, this totally wasn’t supposed to be all about lace. My main theme was inspiration for winter boudoir sessions, but when I started browsing, I found myself to be super drawn to all of these gorgeous lace bra and panty sets in beautiful rich colors, so it ended up going in that direction. How’s a girl to resist?
What I love about a good  sexy bra and panty set for a photo session is that you can spend as much or as little as you want and still look fabulous. Check out the deep purple one from H&M below.
Also, while you might not wear lace undergarments every day, they’re a fun way to spice things up a bit, and you’ll likely get a lot more future use out of them than something like a corset or teddy. Winter is the perfect time for lace because you don’t need to worry about it showing through thinner summer fabrics.
Aside from all of the lace, I did find a couple of stunning and unique pieces that I’m totally swooning over. The first one is  this nightgown from ModCloth. The rich berry color and bow make me think holidays, but not in a cheesy  naughty Mrs. Claus sort of way (not that there’s anything wrong with that if that’s your thing).
And now, saving the best for last, this is from a local lingerie shop called Besos in Los Gatos. If I didn’t have other people to buy Christmas presents for, I’d run right out and buy this for myself and would be scheduling a photo session in it ASAP.
Feeling inspired? Ready to heat up these cold winter nights? Give us a call or shoot us an email to schedule a photo session today!

Welcome to another Tushie Tuesday! This one is an oldie but a goodie. From one of my first sessions in my first studio!
Frilled panties and goosebumps. Haha.
Enjoy the rest of your week everyone!
 The pages of this blog are often filled with all kinds of gorgeous lingerie, but this is the time of year when my appreciation grows for straight-up cozy pajamas.
My husband and I left for Hawaii on November 3, which was just a few days after Halloween and was also the day we turned the clocks back. Apparently while we were gone all of the Christmas elves were out and it became full-on holiday season. It’s time for Christmas music, holiday lights, and red cups at Starbucks. It’s also this time of year that my 87-year-old Grammy starts pestering everyone in the family for a Christmas list.
I’ve been making Christmas lists for Grammy ever since I was old enough to circle stuff in a catalogue. As a kid I loved making the annual Christmas list. Grammy loves gift-giving more than anyone I know, and she always bought everything on my list. As an adult it’s a bit more troubling. What’s reasonable to ask for? What stores are in a ten-mile radius of her house? What can she buy on QVC?
Each year it seems like pajamas always make the list. Gap Body and Victoria’s Secret are usually the winners since Grammy has both stores nearby and the prices are fairly reasonable. While pajamas feel like a kind of generic grandma gift, I love getting them. They’re not something I typically buy for myself, and having a brand-new pair of Christmas pajamas makes me feel like a kid again.
Here are a few favorites I found while browsing for my Christmas list this year. A couple of these are a bit more of a splurge (I’m talking to you gorgeous and cozy Anthropologie robe!), which I won’t be asking Grammy for, but it’s always fun to dream isn’t it?
The flannel slip was actually on my Christmas list last year and I love it. While it seems like an impractical piece of clothing (kind of like that short-sleeved pea coat I own), it’s perfect for Northern California nights. It reminds me of the soft and cozy like the flannel pajamas I had as a kid growing up on the chilly East Coast, but isn’t too hot, and is much cuter.
This year, I’m going with the Fireside Thermal Sleep-Shirt from Victoria’s Secret. I like the idea of being warm and cozy on top, but my legs always get hot in bed, so it’s perfect.
Ladies, today we’re talking underwear!
You know how they (whoever they are?) always say that you should get rid of anything in your closet that you haven’t worn in over a year? Well, I’ve been really trying to abide by that lately, and it’s definitely a challenge. Even though the walk-in closet I share with my husband is big enough to be a small bedroom in Manhattan, it’s pretty small by California standards, and I’ve filled it up rather quickly.
I’ve also been trying to apply the same rules to my bureau. The other day I decided to dump out my lingerie/underwear drawer and tossed all of the items that needed to be retired. When all was said and done, I realized I needed to buy some new underwear, so off to Target I went!
I guess you’re probably starting to wonder where I’m going with this, but I just like to provide a little back story. It adds color. The fun part is coming up!
When you’re preparing for a boudoir photo session, or looking to buy something a little more exciting than a four-pack of Hanes, Target might not be the first store to come to mind, but they have some really pretty lingerie.
I was mostly in the market for every-day practical panties, but when I found this Gilligan & O’Malley thong, I had to throw in something special. Turns out, not only is it super cute, but also might just be comfortable enough for every-day practical too.
The material is extremely soft and the lace details make it super feminine. Check out how the lace goes all the way across the top of the back. Gorgeous! And the best part? These underwear are only $5 each, or five for $20. I just got the purple color on the bottom left, but at that price, I might have to go back and get some more.
Are you brave enough to rock this feminine and sexy thong for a tushy shot? Give us a call today for a complimentray consultation in our San Jose studio.
