Internet, meet Shailaun. We got together in Austin, TX recently for a boudoir shoot, and I’m really proud of the results.
Now, is Shailaun a beautiful alien and therefore unfair for the rest of us mere mortals to compare ourselves to? Yes. I think so. BUT, this shoot is great inspiration and further proof of lots of things I’ve been saying all along. Namely;
1) you do not need to have any experience to do this – this was S’s first lingerie shoot and the first time she’s ever worn something this intentionally “sexy”
2) you do not need hair of any particular type or amount to look really incredible.
3) it’s always worth getting up early for the best light, even if you’re really not a morning person
4) you do not need expensive lingerie for something like this. We used only things S already had, and one affordable set I picked up from Victoria’s Secret the night before that happened to fit her.
5) if you are a photographer, you must must make time to shoot things and people you genuinely feel inspired by
6) boudoir photo shoots are very good for your self-confidence, regardless of what you look like
