Photographer Laura Boyd of Rue Boudoir caught our eye a few years back with her talent for photographing women’s beauty. She definitely knows what she is doing in her boudior studio in New york City! Check out this gorgeous shoot of bride, Miss M…
Why did you want a boudoir photo shoot?
I wanted to give my fiancee a special gift on our wedding day, plus i thought it would be a really great experience. I also thought it would be a great confidence boost.
How did you come to choose your photographer?
There was a special offer on gilt.com for a session with Laura. I had been interested in doing a boudoir shoot and was instantly drawn to Laura’s work. The girls she photographed look so comfortable, really sexy but not trashy. That was important to me.
How did you feel as you were preparing for the shoot??
Nervous, anxious but excited. It was fun shopping for sexy lingerie.
Any advice for ladies thinking about doing a boudoir shoot?
Just do it! Its scary at first but once your there with your makeup done and you sexy outfit you immediately feel more confident. Whether you do it for yourself or for a significant other, its such an amazing experience.
Your favorite moment of the whole experience?
When I finally let go of my inhibitions and just let the sexy takeover. It was very liberating. Laura is also really good at making you feel comfortable.
Lingerie/shoes/accessories – any thing you want to share about what you wore, where you shopped, links etc?
I liked the fact that the shoot started with a more “innocent” looking bra and panty set and finish with a uber sexy black fishnet one piece and high heels. I think finding things that make you comfortable will be the best. I really like yandy.com for sexy outfits.
Just for fun: Define what SEXINESS &/OR BEAUTY means to you
Sexy to me means confidence. You can be the most physically beautiful women in the world but if you dont feel sexy than no one will think you are sexy. Sexy is not about your physical, its all attitude.
Just for fun favorites: share your favorite lyrics from a song, or a favorite quote.
“Be your husbands mind candy”
Did this experience change the way you see yourself, or the way you think of beauty? Anything else you want to share about your experience?
I definitely left feeling more empowered, more sexy and more confident. I saw my self in a brand new light and I plan to bring out my newly discovered sexy side out more often.
