#AskSwell: Boudoir Photos! 🫣🤭📸

article image placeholderUploaded by @MsColes77
Have you done them in a marriage? Have you done them in a relationship? Have you been gifted with boudoir photos by your significant other? Let's talk about it. I think these are very interesting. The one that I put in this particular swell, this is a very modest one compared to the ones that were online. This one was a very modest one, but I wanted to keep it modest for keep it modest

I don't know. The interest is different now. When I do shoots, it's clearly artistic. If it fit a greater meaning or creatively or for my work, maybe, but it's more about the narrative that goes behind the photo. But I guess I'm a creative, so my thoughts are different. I think that we're in a culture now with the proliferation of social media, where we really push fantasy into daily life more because we can

They're taking pictures of their breakfast, they're taking pictures of the sunset, they're taking pictures of the blue sky, the mountains and everything else. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that nowadays we take photos for granted because we have access to them at any given time. We have access to them online, we have access to them on our phones. We can capture photos of just about everything, and so we don't value it as much as we used to

I'm used to photographing the ones that I have, and I like how they come out in photos. So you had to use her stuff, and everything was basically, like just adding up and adding up. And she doesn't give you the digital images at all. You had to pay for them to be put into an album. And so out the door by the time you finished with a, it was, I think, a two hour session

It would have been great if the photographer had allowed you to use the clothing and shoes and other additions that would have made you feel more comfortable and would have made the shoot what you wanted it to be versus making you use her stuff. But on the other hand, I understand why she's the photographer. It's her product. Her name is going to be on it, and so she wants it to be perfect

It was a product shoot, and this was a part of the prestage test shot, and it was in my portfolio, and I really didn't think anything of it. I've used it for other things, and it didn't dawn on me until a while ago, this, well, 2023, and you and I are the same age, and I do a whole bunch of other things. And I taught for a long time. Like, I don't want my students seeing this

So it was just one of those things that I just decided that I wanted to do. So I think, to each his own. Everybody does things that make them feel alive, normal, beautiful, crazy, whatever it is that they feel like they want to do. So I'm all for it. And I guess the only people who probably should be worried about it are maybe politicians or something that might have someone who might use them against them, but I don't care

You. This is a really good topic. I looked at the model, and she is absolutely beautiful. And she just looks like she's at peace and she is feeling her femininity and her beauty. And I just love everything about the photo. I have probably a different reaction than a lot of people in my age range. And I'm all about the feminine. I love it
