This 2 hour 30 minute video program is for professionals and hobbyists alike who want to shoot boudoir images.

 A guide to lighting, posing and styling boudoir photography

 

This video is for professionals and amateurs alike who want to shoot boudoir images. You may already be shooting this style of work, in which case this video will give you a lot of hints and tricks for developing your skills as well as broad inspiration too.

 

I will show you how to work with sitters and put them at their ease. You will learn how to use a very small space very effectively. I will show you examples of my best-selling shots from the studio that you can simply re-create for your clients or sitters.

 

I will talk about the business of boudoir, but this is principally a video about photography and how to get the best from inexperienced subjects. Together you will create images that both of you are very happy with.
