Jessica | Wisconsin Boudoir Photography

What is Boudoir?

a woman's bedroom or private sitting room

[C18: from French, literally: room for sulking in, from bouder to sulk]

What is Boudoir Photography?
It is a genre of photography that is a very sensual and personal form of art in which a woman expresses her inner and outer beauty regardless of how big or small, wide or thin, and vice versa. The purpose of boudoir photography--essentially---is to make women look good and give them a boost of self-esteem in a setting that can often be (but doesn't have to be) revealing. Is this pornography? NO. Not by any means. Some photos can be more revealing, but often they are simply tasteful which brings about the purpose behind the photography. Because it is highly personal, boudoir is often a gift for a lover.








This shoot was something that I never ventured to do before, and am not sure what this means for the future of my business. But Jessie and I had a lot of fun with this shoot--she really got to be her own dorky self! And really, that's what these photos are--her in her element, thinking about the one she loves most! Any questions, feel free to ask. :)
