London Boudoir Photography: Miss Micah’s Boudoir Photo Shoot

Miss Micah and I got together the other weekend for an abbreviated Rebel & Romance London Boudoir Photography Session. This was her first time in front of the camera in lingerie, so she was a bit nervous but ended up rocking it out like a pro in no time.

For this London Boudoir Photography shoot, I had three goals. First and most obviously, I wanted to create beautiful images for Miss M. Second, I thought it’s about time to show how adorable yet chic this year’s floral lingerie trend is – right? Third, I wanted to practice a bit using artificial light. Some of you photography enthusiasts out there might already know that I shoot 90% of my work with natural light. It’s the way I prefer to work, but the days are so short right now! It’s hard to get the sun to stick around long enough to get any real shooting done, and I’ve got all these expensive studio lights just sat around here anyway…well, it seemed time to give them a little love.

 Miss Micah is wearing lingerie from guess where? Go on. Guess.

H&M! H&M girls.

Go getchyou some.

Oh Tyra Banks Micah, your face is buttah.

A few model-y full length shots. I love the stockings with this look, even though it’s quite dark. As a side note, if you’re not a fan of your calves, this would be the ideal way to de-emphasise them:)

A totally anonymous image. How very deceptive of us:)

This second lingerie set is stunning. It’s so beautiful and intricately feminine, it got immediate gasps from everyone on set. Also, how amazing does Miss M look, right?

This is the “Rosa” collection by Sonata Lingerie, and is made of delicate wine coloured floral lace and silk. A bit later on, we added on the matching bodysuit from the same collection and oh em gee.

 Sometimes you just have to see something in person to appreciate it, and that is absolutely the case with Sonata Lingerie. It’s about 100 times nicer than you expect it to be.

Sonata (the designer) says, “It is a high-end lingerie line due to the quality fabrics and handmade aspect of the designs, but Sonata Lingerie is designed with fabulous women in mind everywhere. I hate to think I have only one type of lady buying my designs… I hope to inspire all ages from 18 to 80!”

“I just want to make women feel pretty, confident and sexy…. and when you wear amazing lingerie – you feel amazing. Basically, if I’ve achieved you feeling fabulous, then I’m happy with that!”

And who can’t get behind a designer like that?

Micah moves like a dancer in the (artificially created) twilight. I quite like using lighting like this, as it gives such a moody and romantic feel to the resulting images.

Such great angles from Miss M as well! She’s all legs and arms and beautiful eyes.

I couldn’t resist one last beautiful portrait for Micah.

 Finally, to end our London Boudoir Photography shoot, one last look I’ve been meaning to do for ages. This is my oversized chunky winter knit from All Saints. It worked like a dream for these cozy, cheeky winter inspired images. This is also a genius way to cover up without looking like you’re trying to covering up.

Beautiful Micah, you were fantastic. Thanks for a great shoot!
