We photographed a custom concept shoot a couple weeks ago, and we had sent our client an image of a dress from Agent Provocateur as part of her specialized concept (more on the concept in another post).
Here’s the image we sent:
Inspired by our concept, the client rented an amazing D&G dress from “rent the runway” for the shoot, which originally retails for $585 and rents for $75.
“These women are amazing! I had boudoir pictures taken as a wedding gift for my husband-to-be, and the whole experience was awesome. They were professional, fun, and provided me with enough champagne and encouragement to get me through the shoot. I opted to have my makeup and hair professionally done, too – and I can’t say enough about how talented the artist was! I left the shoot feeling on top of the world. I would do recommend Revealed Boudoir to anyone who wants a once in a lifetime experience! (And amazing pictures of yourself to boot!)” ~Ms. A

Madonna sang it best in Vogue, when you just need to “let your body go with the flow” to pose.
We get a lot of client questions on how to prepare for a shoot. One of the best ways is to practice posing in front of the mirror. How many of us have sucked in our gut while sticking out our chest in front of the bathroom mirror?
Many of the posing ideas for clients come from our trying to make curves look more flattering before the mirror. Lengthening your torso and twisting your body in S curves can easily take ten pounds off of a client. Those same S curves can make a thin girl look voluptuous.
Yoga, pilates and the Method are also great ways to prep for a shoot. They help you become more flexible and build a stronger core so you can hold poses and create curves more easily.
But most of all, have fun with trying new poses. Check out those silly modeling shows on t.v. Try out what you see in magazines in the privacy of your own bathroom mirror. Move to music by confident women like Madonna, Lady Gaga or Katy Perry.
If all of this posing biz seems a little overwhelming, don’t worry. Maggie and I will be there to guide you throughout the photo shoot, plus you can have a laugh at us as we model sans sexy clothing and make-up. We’ll help you get your Vogue on.

You’d think by looking at the sun in the Ms. M’s bikini shoot, it was a hot, balmy August day. Instead, the weather was frigid and the wind was strong enough to make eyes water. Even models struggle in these conditions, but Ms. M rocked it. I bet a certain OU fan is going to be one happy guy when he sees these photos.
