What is Boudoir Photography?
What is Boudoir Photography at FOR YOUR EYES ONLY PORTRAITS®
What is boudoir photography? It's a style of photography that involves taking intimate and sensual photographs of women, often in lingerie or other revealing clothing.
The aim of boudoir photography is to celebrate women's beauty and femininity, and to empower them to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
Boudoir photography at FOR YOUR EYES ONLY PORTRAITS® is an immersive studio experience which takes place in a private studio with professional flattering studio lighting.


I am often asked 'What is boudoir photography'
The answer is that boudoir photography is a style of photographic portraiture which is designed to compliment the sitter offering a therapeutic confidence boost.
However, it differs from glamour photography because clients are generally having a photoshoot for private use rather than for use in commercial publications such as Playboy or GQ magazine, so the pictures tend to be more artistic and less brightly lit - less full frontal!
To me, boudoir photography means ‘adventure’. A stepping outside of your comfort zone to create something brave, something positive. It is a type of therapy - but better than therapy because the resultant photographs provide a lasting positive proof - photographic evidence! In my experience it’s a confidence boost that really works. So far we’ve seen over 20,000 women here at the studio and with more clients booking in daily it shows how popular the sessions are.
It’s funny because it’s not always the ladies booking in for themselves. Quite often a partner will get in touch to say ‘can you help her?’ It's about perspective you see. Sometimes, in fact more often than not, the way that a partner sees you is not the way you see yourself. It can become a real issue if a woman feels too insecure to share her body in an open and visual way with her partner. I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but the video on our about page follows the story of Nicola who wouldn’t let her husband see her bottom in daylight - until after she’d had her FYEO photoshoot. Go have a look if you haven’t seen it!
Coming to terms with ones issue of low body confidence can mean the difference beteeen intimacy and distance between a couple, I've seen it nearly destroy relationships - and witnessed the recovery and reconnection of a couple through the faboulous work we do here at FYEO.
Boudoir photography means:
- Photographs from a photoshoot are artistic - revealing the body in a flattering and sensual way perhaps wearing their favourite lingerie, sometimes nude.
- The experience is excellent for boosting ones self confidence.
- Benefits of a session include; increased intimacy with a partner because of the increase in body confidence. And. Feeling more comfortable in your own skin, to that extent that you fall in love with your own body!
- A privately commissioned photographic service with boudoir poses.
