I went after work, which made me a little nervous, because, after being up since 5:30 in the morning, I didn't look so alert and happy. My photographer, Lynn Michelle, did an amazing job of hiding any of those feelings which I might have felt. I arrived to her studio, many outfits in hand, and she did both my hair and makeup and helped me to pick out which outfits would be the most flattering and good for the camera (which, fyi, I learned that the babydoll dresses that we all think hide our bad parts are usually not so flattering on camera).
Here's a little peek of what we ended up with (only PG pics for you to see) - Mr H. if by some random reason you are actually reading this post - STOP NOW:
She offered me a glass of wine to help ease my tensions, which I accepted, but really only ended up taking a couple of sips during the entire session. She was super easy to work with (aka, she made me feel completely comfortable being pretty naked in front of a stranger), got me to make my natural smile more then I would have thought possible, and did a great job with the final photos.
I started off with a hockey jersey, moved to Mr. H's favorite sweatshirt and some cute panties, then a couple of little lacy numbers and ended with the garter for our wedding, my wedding shoes, some Mrs. panties and the tie that Mr. H will wear on our wedding day.
If any of you are considering taking some boudoir pics for your man, I can't tell you how happy I am that I did it - and I encourage you to take the risk and do the same! Here's a few tips from my photographer on what you should bring to your boudoir session!
