Celebrate The Passion Of Marriage With A Boudoir Wedding Album

Preparing for and pulling off a wedding can be a very stressful affair for the bride and groom. A wedding is meant to celebrate the love between partners and their commitment to each other for a lifetime. However, these noble intentions can sometimes get lost in the mad dash to pick out the invitations, secure a venue within budget, decide whether or not to invite second cousins, etc…

One tradition that is growing in popularity is for the bride to present the groom with a boudoir wedding album before the event. This helps the couple see beyond the current stress and craziness and to enjoy the promise of physical unity as well as spiritual connectedness on the big day.

A boudoir wedding album often features the bride wearing provocative lingerie sets and posing playfully in a lavish, sexually charged setting. They say a bride is never more beautiful than on her wedding day, but a boudoir wedding photo shoot may prove that maxim wrong.

This particular photo shoot features a beautiful bride-to-be posing in a sexy white chemise that playfully parodies a wedding gown. The mesh white thigh-high stockings add another sensual component to the ensemble. Altogether, this is a daring, attractive photo set that doesn’t cross the line of becoming too risqué.

The sheer white chemise worn by the model comes from CKL, a boutique that specializes in high quality lingerie including chemises, corsets, teddies, camisoles, costumes, bra and panty sets and more. CKL’s premium lingerie is made to let every woman, and every bride, celebrate their beauty and sexuality.

So, within the mad dash to pull of the perfect wedding, a bride might want to consider giving her fiancé something a little sweet to look forward to. A boudoir wedding album as a gift is the perfect promise of what awaits the groom on his honeymoon and the sexual treasure he will be bonded to for the rest of his life.

Boudoir Photography Lets Women Show Their Sex Appeal

The term “boudoir” comes from the French and was originally used to describe a woman’s bedroom, private sitting room or bathing area. A secret, sensual place, a “boudoir” took on the connotation of the forbidden and female sex appeal.

In that same spirit, boudoir has established itself as a legitimate style of photography that features women clad in sexy lingerie, posing provocatively in luxurious settings, usually a lavish bedroom or hotel room.

Boudoir photography is way for a woman to display her sexuality and to celebrate the beauty and allure of her body. A boudoir photo album also makes a great Valentine’s Day, anniversary or birthday gift. It can also be used to celebrate weight loss, motherhood or any other positive body change. Boudoir is all about female empowerment and the raw, sexual gratification a woman embraces by shedding her everyday clothes and slipping into a beautiful set of lingerie.

CKL offers many hot, sexy and daring lingerie assembles, including teddies, corsets, chemises, camisoles and sexy bra and panty sets. Some tease. Some provoke. Some cover just enough to stoke a mad passion. And some…well, some of CKL’s lingerie sets scream pure sex.

The boudoir photography featured here represents the best of the art form. CKL’s corset and matching frill panties accentuate the model’s natural beauty, and matches perfectly with the luxurious and potent bedroom setting. The black and white corset is definitely the centerpiece of the outfit, providing both a stark color contrast to the red wine couch and enhancing the smooth curvature of the model’s body.

Enticed to start your own boudoir album? CKL’s website is full of different lingerie to choose from. Whatever you pick, that special someone in your life won’t be letting go of your boudoir album anytime soon.

Sexy Costumes, Sexy Pictures

CKL’s Hot Navy Pinup Costume Demonstrates The Beauty Of Pinup Photography

Nothing spices up the bedroom like a beautiful woman in a sexy costume, which is why creating a pinup photo spread can be the perfect naughty surprise for that special someone in your life.

CKL is proud to offer the new sexy navy girl costume featured in this army glamour photo shot. The hat, tie and shiny belt of this navy costume provide a professional veneer, while the low neckline and short skirt promise a special solider a very warm welcome home.

The images themselves feature a beautiful and realistic female model. The stark white background accentuates the model’s curves and the dark navy color of her costume.

Pinup photography is a legitimate way for a woman to express her sexuality and provide her partner with a physical incarnation of his deepest sexual desires. Men love pinup photography, and navy pinup photos have been among the most popular, appearing on countless calendars, playing cards, adult magazines and even tattoos.

Now, CKL, offers women the chance to have fun with high quality costumes that range from tantalizing to downright steamy. Pinup photography doesn’t just have to feature military costumes. Whatever your man’s taste, CKL probably offers a costume that will push his buttons and turn you into his calendar girl pinup every month of the year.

These beautiful and alluring professional photos in costume can become a treasured keepsake for your partner’s private collection and can also offer inspiration for future bedroom play.

Miss E was an absolute BLAST to work with.  Her session was full of laughter and tons of fun!  For her special session we were able to change outfits a number of times so be sure to make it to the end of the post or you might miss some sexy! Here is a particularly sweet photo and one of my favorites:

Miss E’s now husband happens to be in the Navy.  Historically, pinup photography has been chock-full of military themed illustrations and photos. Pinup girls were a morale boost and served to remind the men what they were fighting for.  Pinup girls appeared painted on aircraft as well as literally “pinned” up in the barracks.  In the past, pin up girls were celebrities, or illustrations representative of a woman.  Imagine having YOUR girl do pinup for you? There’s pretty much nothing hotter. Especially when she is wearing your Navy hat, dog tags and all the while twirls her curls!

Here is Miss E in a super hot, hot pink lingerie / garter piece.  The addition of the heart lollipop only made these boudoir photos sweeter!

Finally, here is Miss E in her “Sexy Little Bride” undies and Sweet Catholic School Girl number.  Next to providing my clients with an unforgettable and self confidence boosting boudoir session, we work together to provide their intended “audience” with photos that pack a little jaw dropping punch!  From what I understand, her hubby was more than pleased with the outcome

What happens when you add a “KISS THIS” to a pair of undies? Sass!  OK maybe I’m a better photographer than a comedian.

Miss N has one lucky husband. Not only did he receive an amazing boudoir album, but a sexy calendar is currently at the printer as I write this … hopefully I’ll get to share a few shots of how that came out. I did the design so I can assure you … STEAMY!

Whether you’ve booked the pinup or boudoir photo session for yourself or as a gift for someone else, you’ll want to do something with your photos.   You’ll have invested time and money into this shoot and I’ll have invested the same so let’s talk about some amazing boudoir gift ideas … even if the gift is for you!

• Boudoir / Pinup Calendar
• Custom CD/DVD Case for your Boudoir Photos
• Custom Image Keepsake Box info:

A custom image keepsake box is a fantastic way to print and display your boudoir photos.  Like an album, keepsake boxes are a great way to have your images handy, but not necessarily hung on a wall (not that it is by any means discouraged!). The box design is your choice and we can go as subtle or as WILD as you’d like!  They come in size 4×6 or 5×7.  We can fill it up with prints of all of the images from your session, or choose your favorite top 10 to mount on a special styrene back.  Contact me today for pricing and ordering info!

:: 4×6 Box with prints of all photos from boudoir photo session ::

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a blog post “Boudoir Goodies Spotlight: Custom CD/DVD Case.”  New product on the blog: custom boudoir image keepsake box.  As promised I am sharing some more fabulous ideas of what to do with your boudoir photos.  This calendar is a 14 month calendar and begins on whatever month you’d like it to. Why wait until the new year to spread fabulous photos!? Contact me today for pricing and ordering info!

Check out a few images of this classic boudoir gift your hubby is sure to love.

These shots would eventually become a fantastic gift she would give her boyfriend of many years.  I would not argue that giving a book of boudoir photography to a spouse is a fantastic, romantic gift. However, the gift you give yourself can be greater.  I’ve said it before and it is still true: boudoir photography is a huge confidence booster! Professional hair and makeup are a part of most of Sweet Tooth packages and bring your photos to a whole new level.  Do you really think super models you see in magazines and on TV are au naturel!?

The entire boudoir photography session proves to you that you are beautiful, sexy and worth looking at! Miss R certainly is:

So what do you do with them? How do you display them?  How do you package them up as a gift?  Have no fear! There are lots of fantastic ways to print your images including albums, image boxes and prints. There are also other fun goodies like calendars and DVD / CD cases.  Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be showcasing these goodies for you.  You can check out my post awhile back on the Boudoir photo album gift.

For now, check out these customizable CD / DVD cases.  Maybe you’ve decided to purchase all of your digital negatives.  If so, this is the perfect way to keep that disk safe.  If you’d like the option of a low resolution CD, purchase one of these and your low resolution, watermarked disk is included for free!

The spine of the case can say whatever you’d like. We can bling it out with your name and fun graphics, or keep it simple and secretive …. oh la la!

Keeping a boudoir photo blog of recent work has proven to be a bit on the challenging side of things. Opposed to my baby and family photography, many boudoir clients prefer their photos not be distributed on the internet.  Boudoir photos are intimate, romantic photos you have professionally taken for yourself, or a (very) lucky person of your choosing. Some women describe the confidence they’ve gained after these photo sessions (“I truly felt gorgeous!“), but even still, boudoir photos aren’t taken with the intent they will be seen by a whole lot of people.   This has always made me a little sad because as an understandable consequence, many clients do not order large prints to hang on their walls (although some do and I highly encourage it– good work should be seen!).  During our session, I always make sure that I get a number of portraits, as well as revealing shots. After all, your hubby loves your eyes, nose and smile just as much as the rest of you!  In any case, this particular client was generous enough to let me share with you one of these portraits. Enjoy!
