Fall 2011–The First of the Rest

The first of two final posts to highlight a few last photos from the last three months of 2011 that I want to share.  These didn’t easily fit into the categories of my other posts.  First a few of Charlie Kristine from November.

Fall 2011 Continues–In the Boudoir

In 2011 I focused mostly on shooting outdoor and artistic nude styled work.  I did work in glamour a couple times this fall while shooting with Charlie Kristine and Brynn Cook.  Boudoir is my favorite glamour style.  Whether or not nudity is in the photo, boudoir focuses on allure and seduction.  Sexuality is present, but subtle instead of in your face.  It’s a whispered promise, not an overt request.  I find it feels more flirty and real compared to most glamour which tends toward exaggeration and fantasy.

In the November shoot with Charlie I primarily worked on the idea of her with a man’s dress shirt and tie for our boudoir set.  Charlie again does a wonderful job looking sexy and alluring.  I’m not sure what it is about a beautiful woman wearing a man’s dress shirt and nothing else that just screams sexy, but Charlie pulls it off well.

We also played with a few poses using the tie with a bit of a kinkier edge.  I like these in black and white.

During my shoot with Brynn, we also explored some boudoir photos.  One of these I put in my Best of 2011 post and I won’t repeat here.  But a few others I especially liked from the shoot.  The first I think approaches the erotic, but still leaves more to the imagination than it reveals.

Another few from the shoot playing with the perspective.  Looking down on the model from above adds an interesting element of intimacy to the photo.  It looks more that you’re looking down at the subject while above her, a perspective with obvious implications in the boudoir.
