London Boudoir Photography: Miss Kelly’s Boudoir Photo Shoot
We’ve been back to the warehouse I love. This time with Kelly, a gorgeous leggy brunette. Kelly is a dancer and model, and it was a treat to have her in for a London Boudoir Photography Session.
On that note – stupid dancers. So pretty and stuff.
Anyway, Lauren (our fab makeup artist for the day) and I had fun testing out a few new ideas with Miss K. We started with a really simple setup – large window, brick wall, and a giant poly board to reflect light back on Kelly’s lovely face. This sort of shot is all about the hair and makeup, and also about nailing that effortless expression. It’s not as easy as it sounds, but Miss K did great.
I’m really loving these blue tones lately, especially with lighter coloured eyes.
Kelly is wearing a classic combo for her London Boudoir Photography shoot – detailed bra, high waisted bottoms, and my Louboutins. Or as the boys refer to them, “those red bottomed shoes.”
Same set, two different post processing finishes. I think the black and white version has a real old school glamour feel, and the warmer tones on this image on the right just makes Kelly’s lips look amazing.
Two seconds of sun. Nailed it. These are so moody!
Love these chairs. Almost as much as I love weird old couches.
This image on the right was created in front of what is literally the most poorly hung wallpaper I’ve ever seen. It’s in the makeup room, and the light was just so nice in there that I couldn’t pass it up. I’ve only included one, as I’m still a bit unsure about whether I really like it or not, lol!
We wanted to do a softer second look, so a quick hair/makeup change and an outfit switch was what the boudoir doctor ordered. We also moved to the far end of our shooting space, since I think this corner has a totally different feel to the rest of the space.
Variation on a theme again.
Kelly rules the world, Beyonce style.
That time we found a ladder,
and rocked it.
I’m working on a bridal boudoir photography portfolio section to add to the rest of the London Boudoir Photography imagery (slowly, but surely) so I used this headband made by my fabulously crafty friend Gaby to get a few bridal boudoir portraits.
Kelly, thanks so much, it was fab working with you!
