It’s my pleasure to share a very special London Boudoir Photography Session with you today. I share a lot of London Boudoir Photography Sessions that feature young, thin models, but I’m lucky enough to work with women of all shapes, sizes, and ages, and they are all stunning and beautiful, but often less keen on sharing images publicly.
The lovely Janice is a great example of our work with more mature clients. Elegant, beautiful, and full of life, she was such a pleasure to photograph. If I told you how old she really is, you would fall right off your chair.
We started off with some lovely detail images. These are great storytelling shots that make an album flow together nicely. Or, if you’re half exhibitionist and half shy, is something you can put on the wall without showing your face:)
Janice is wearing a cream lingerie set with a lavender wrap and statement necklace. I’ve backlit her in these images – it’s one of my favourite sets because it flatters all figures.
Oh Jan! So gorgeous with those big cat eyes!
Jan’s haircut suits her perfectly, yes? This wrap is great too – perfect for de-emphasizing upper arms if you’re so inclined. Not that Ms. J needs it!
Ms. Jan’s story is fascinating. After a proper career, she’s rediscovered her creative side as a mature model and is having much success and fun doing so. She’s got a website, which you can see here, as well as contracts with several agencies. She’s also an Ambassador of Mature Models for Models of Diversity, which we love.
A bit more colour with this look. This sort of look is a great option for the more mature woman who wants to keep clothed (and/or those of us keen to hide our tummies) because it’s sensual without being too revealing.
I looooove these images. I think they highlight what Jan is all about, and I couldn’t pick my favourites so I’m just showing you all of them!
Jan, you’re amazing. Thanks for your exceedingly great patience in waiting for me to get these finished up for you, and for a great London Boudoir Photography Session!

London Boudoir Photography: Annie’s Outdoor Boudoir Photo Shoot
The lovely Annie is back on the blog a second time today!
Professional plus size model Annie and I had an in-studio shoot months ago (Annie’s London Boudoir Photography Session) and we’ve been trying to schedule a second shoot ever since. With our crazy schedules it’s taken longer than we hoped, but we finally managed and it was worth the wait!
I love photographing outdoors in natural light, so with the help of fellow photographer Nicola Johnson, we all arranged to meet up at a stunning, secluded spot outside London…
Who wants to go Glamping with me here? The Only Way is Essex style!
Annie did her own makeup and hair for this shoot, and I think it looks great. Sometimes less is more.
Annie is wearing a vintage cream slip dress I brought along in these images. Lingerie is always great for a London Boudoir Photography session, but there is nothing wrong with covering up a bit more either!
For the second look Annie wore a white bodysuit and tan wrap. This luscious green patch was on Nicola’s shot list, and I think the contrasting colour is really nice.
A good pair of boots is a must have for any location shoot – for photographers and models. Bonus points if they are cute enough to make it into the final images.
These are some of my favourite images from the day. Such a beautiful backdrop, and a gorgeous model as well.
Annie makes it look so easy! I’d love to do more London Boudoir Photography sessions outdoors, so get in touch if you’re up for it!
For the last look, we brought out the sparkly hot pants. That’s right, I said sparkly hot pants.
This looks effortless, but I can assure you it was not. Annie almost died. Oookay, not really, but it was not a very glamourous dismount!
My favourite pose of the day!
Annie, you were fab as always! Thanks for a great session, your Blue Steel modelling skills, and trekking halfway across England with me! xx Stormy

I feel like this cartoon is a very accurate portrayal, except that it’s missing out the part where you decide you MUST clean your house/cook dinner from scratch/rearrange the files on your computer/etc. before you could possibly concentrate on whatever you’re putting off.
Dear Mom, please stop asking me what the weather is like in London every time we speak. It is like THIS, always.
My all time favourite chandelier by the genius Lee Bul. Lee is a South Korean born contemporary artist, and her work has appeared in solo exhibitions worldwide. She does primarily exhibition pieces.
When I first came across I didn’t realise it was a proper piece of art. I spent an hour trying to find a price before realising that 1) it’s not for sale 2) it’s faaaaar too expensive even if it were.

Gorgeous. Six feet tall (not kidding). Has the most daring haircut I’ve seen this year.
I live vicariously through these women with brave hair, because despite all manner of pep talks, I seem to be physically unable to request anything other than long layers when I’m in the hairdresser’s chair.
On a second note, this post is too long. I’m fully aware, but I just could not narrow it down any further.
Alongside her other gigs, Miss E makes regular appearances for ASOS Marketplace. She also struts her extra long legs down the catwalk for various lingerie designers and fashion brands.
One last set of these! These two backdrops are swiftly becoming some of our favourites for London Boudoir Photography sessions.
I’ve been dying to do a “geek chic” themed London Boudoir Photography Session for ages. We hadn’t discussed it beforehand, so when Emma pulled this adorable jumper out of her bag I was knew the photographic gods had smiled on us. Let the hot nerdyness begin…
Long socks? Why not? If anyone has the gams to pull it off it’s this lady!
Our impromptu London Boudoir Photography “Geek Chic” look was completed with a pair of 3D Glasses, which we popped the eyepieces out of, and an old newspaper.
Vulnerability is beautiful, no?
Rolling around on the floor looking glam, as you do…
Suddenly, I remembered that I am a photographer (wha?!) and have a vintage camera.
If I could just look this good while photographing sessions….ah, that would be the day!
For our last set, Miss E put on something a bit more sultry.
A smoky eye completes the look.
I’m working on a new series of poses that show off our floor to ceiling windows. Miss E nails it, of course, but these poses work for us mere mortals as well. I’m looking for a curvy lady to prove it, so don’t be shy! If you’re a bootylicious babe and would like to help me show how beautiful women of all sizes and shapes are, please get in touch. Just leave a comment below, or drop me an email.
A bit of creative colouring to wrap things up!
Miss E, you’re amazing. Thanks for a great session!

London Boudoir Photography: Miss Bettina’s Boudoir
Photo Shoot
I’m not a huge fan of pin up. I know, I know…gasps heard worldwide. But, I do love a London Boudoir Photography Session with a vintage vibe about it, so I was thrilled when Miss Bettina walked through my door with her magnificently retro hair. We combined Miss B’s love of all things vintage with my style of London Boudoir Photography to create a set of pin-up inspired but contemporary feeling images. Enjoy!
Bettina is wearing a peachy-pink Agent Provocateur bodysuit for her first look. I love the contrast of her colorful tattoos with the softness and romantic feel of this lingerie and backlit set.
If you go gaga for pin up and vintage revival, you’ll want to know that fab Miss B is currently studying fashion and fashion styling, and is arranging a fashion show to support the Royal Brompton & Harefield Charitable fund. The show will feature the best of the best in 1940’s and 50’s reproduction clothing, as well as burlesque and cabaret acts, live music, and more. It’s going to be a blast I’m sure, so to get your tickets, visit The New Vintage Look event page, or buy direct here.
Oh yes. Sparkly shoes never fail us around here!
A bright red lip (We heart MAC’s colours this season) and matching nails aren’t a bad way to go either.
Oh Miss B, talented and beautiful….you’re a heartbreaker if I ever did see one!
This second look is probably my favourite of the day, that colour, those frills…
I’ve recently been playing with turning the lights down low for a more moody, mysterious look. What do you think? A keeper or no?
I had to post all of these, because Miss B worked s0 hard to perfect these poses, and they all look amazing. Well done lady!
To finish up, a few images creative images of Miss B wearing the new birdcage veil we’ve ordered for our London Boudoir Photography clients that are currently engaged and arranging a sneaky surprise session for their lucky partners.
Miss B, it was such a pleasure photographing you. Best of luck with your upcoming fashion show, but I’m sure you won’t need it;)

London Boudoir Photography: Miss E’s Boudoir Photo Shoot
Happy Valentine’s Day!
It’s such a polarising day isn’t it? Even though most of us know it was just invented by corporations to sell more cards and chocolates, it still seems to turn into such a big deal. You end up caring, even though you don’t care!
Whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day today, or layering on the eyeliner in UnValentine’s Day tradition, you’ve got our love. Or un-love. Whichever you prefer!
In the festive spirit, I wanted to share something special with you today. Soooooo, I bring you the lovely Miss E’s Boudoir Photo Shoot, one of my favorites to date!
Miss E is a classically trained dancer and aspiring art agent, and I think the images we created during her Boudoir Photo Shoot reflect that aesthetic…
Are you not loooooving our new orchid backdrops?
E wore an cream Agent Provocateur playsuit for her first look, matched with stockings and our vintage pearls.
Oh those eyes!
We got lucky with a bit of sun in the studio for Miss E’s Boudoir Photo Shoot, which is always a treat.
I love how mysterious E looks in these. Maybe this is what happens when you grow up in a house full of artists?
I love the monochrome palette of this set. E wears a delicate lace and crystal vintage bodysuit and our Christian Dior snakeskin heels.
Oooh la la legs…
Hair in a messy side set chignon, like all the prettiest French girls do…
Miss E, you’re oh-so-stunning, and such a lovely woman as well. It was a pleasure to photography you. Thank you for a great boudoir photo shoot, and best of luck with things in New York!
