Boudoir Photography session: modeling portfolio top up
Gorgeous Nicole on the blog today. She was looking for a quick portfolio update, so we did a bit of everything this shoot – boudoir photography, fitness, commercial and lifestyle looks, etc.
If you’re looking to get into modeling, a shoot like this can help set you off on a strong footing. I know agents all think they know exactly what they are looking for, but I’ve heard time and time again about how people apply with polaroids, get rejected, and then get signed on when they go back again with a portfolio. Sometimes you just need to show people what you can do.
Hairstyling my me, DIY makeup, all shot at the new studio.
Love this pink bodysuit – the perfect option for a feminine, girly look.
Stunner.
I mean, you’re meant to use about four lights and a proper backdrop for fitness photography, but we got some pretty solid results with net curtains and a window. Less is more? It’s certainly faster. I would like to do a bit more with the complicated setups though, so if you’re reading this and in training for a fitness competition or in great shape otherwise, I’d be keen to practice with you:)
That winning commercial smile 🙂 🙂 🙂
One last one to round it out. If you’re after variety and open to commercial bookings, I’d also suggest a simple business look, adding a pair of glasses, and maybe even a quick faux bridal look. You never know who might see it. Avoid logos and clothing with writing, unless you’re going for a specific look like a Calvin Klein inspired boudoir photoshoot.
Thanks Nicole, it was so lovely to work with you again!
If you’d be interested in discussing a shoot like this for yourself, or a more traditional boudoir photography experience, drop me an email.
