Jim Manganella / Boudoir

Boudoir photography is commonly and historically done by brides as a gift to the husband-to-be on their wedding day. However it can be done at any time and for any reason such as birthdays, anniversaries, or simply to capture a special period of time in your life. It is a photographic style featuring intimate and sensual images in a dressing area, bedroom or any private setting. The photos are typically done in lingerie - nudity is more often implied or partial rather than explicit. Typically this is for individuals who do not regularly model. The images are not intended to be seen by a wide audience, but rather to remain under the control of the client.

This style of photography is nothing new, it dates back to the 1800's.
