Boudoir has become very popular lately and people are often surprised to find I shoot quite a bit of it. That being said, it’s a very challenging form of photography – everything has to be right to ensure a beautiful result.

In this three-hour workshop, I’ll cover everything you need to know to get you started with gorgeous boudoir photography including the following:

• Wardrobe
• Hair and makeup
• Set styling
• Lighting
• Posing
• Expression

We’ll cover three totally different boudoir looks. The first look will use only available window light.

The second look will use continuous lighting and feature a bedroom scene.

The third look will be a creative look. It’s the most complex of these looks and it uses studio lights.

Our model for this workshop will be beautiful Cherry (IG @cherrysinatra).

Your enrollment includes photo release for promotional/portfolio use so you'll have the opportunity to add to your portfolio.
