Boudoir photos are intimate images of a woman that are revealing and sexual. This kind of photo shoot is exciting and liberating. It can increase self-esteem, rekindle romance and all around be a life-changing experience.

But being a woman myself, I can understand how that excitement can quickly turn into apprehension. Thinking about being so vulnerable and exposed can be scary and I often hear women say:

If only I was thinner… taller… prettier… Had bigger this and smaller that…

There are so many excuses, but it all gets down to making that first step. Once she makes that step, she never regrets doing it.

Proper lighting, flattering poses and professional makeup can transform an every-day girl into a princess she really is.

 

So what can you expect once your decision has been made?

Dawn and I met when she came in for a Glamour shoot last year. She had her hair and makeup done and came in ready to be a super model. She did an amazing job then and some of the shots from that shoot made it to our website and have been used for few promotional items in the studio.

Dawn also hired us for her Engagement Session and then later for her Wedding day. Needless to say, Dawn is not just a loyal customer, but a good friend as well.

This year, as a gift for her husband, Dawn came in for a Boudoir Session. In our new studio we were able to provide a whole new experience for her and give a wider range of shots. By the time we were done with the shoot Dawn have been posed by the door, on the steps, against a backdrop, in the library and on the bed. She was exhausted, but it was well worth it when she got to see the final product.

The pictures came out amazing, but during the viewing session Dawn mentioned that she could not decide if she was going to print all the shots out and put them in the album or create a scrap book.

Oh no no no no no!!!

There are better ways of packaging such sexy memories!

I showed Dawn few different options as well as our new Press Printed Books, and was not surprised when she fell in love with it.

Our Hardcover Canvas Surface Photo Books are printed on highest quality digital press printing technology available. Features unique Lay Flat Hinged Pages and comes in variety of sizes. Perfect for Wedding Albums, Boudoir Books, Coffee Table Books and more!

We worked within Dawn’s budget and created a one of a kind book using the images she selected. We were even able to add some of her husband’s favorite images from the first shoot. Every page told a story and showed off Dawn’s unique beauty as well as some intimate details (for his eyes only!)

When the book arrived wrapped in a beautiful box with a bow and I presented it to Dawn it was like watching a kid on Christmas morning! Looking through the book I saw how emotional she got… though she will deny crying.

Now that’s a gift worth putting under the tree for the man you love!

“I am speechless about the book. The detail is amazing and you can feel the thought that went into the design. I can’t wait for my husband, who is stationed on the east coast, to get it as an early Christmas gift. But shhhh don’t tell him!”

Dawn B.

LOL, I guess she could not wait!

Speaking of Christmas, we got our Christmas tree up and decorated by the fire place. Perfect background for the Holidays. So ladies, I hope you’ve been naughty enough this year to get yourself some sexy red lingerie!

Don’t wait any longer. Book your appointment today and order your personal Press Printed Book just in time for the Holidays!

Mary and I have been talking about doing this shoot for a few months. She wanted something different and a bit on a naughty side. As one of the suggestions I mentioned using Marie Antionette as an inspiration and we both liked where it was going right away.

 

Mary started shopping for the outfit and most importantly, the wig. It was one of the main items of the shoot and it took some looking around to find the right one. We didn’t want it to be too big (as was a custom at the time), but still wanted to represent the character. After doing some research Mary found the perfect one at buycostumes.com and for a great price!

Then it was off to find the rest of the outfit. Of course our local Lover’s Package Store came to the rescue yet again. I loved the corset Mary picked out! It is beautifully constructed and has boning for extra shape and support.

 

On the day of the shoot Ashley from Make Up Your Mind was here to apply makeup and help with the wig, and then later change things up for sexy lingerie look Mary picked out. Ashley not only does hair and makeup, but also acts as a style consultant and a huge help in the studio. What would I do without her?

During the shoot I had a bit of a challenge photographing the wig. While Mary was perfect in posing and facial expressions, the wig would just come out as a big white shining spot. It seemed like the thing was taunting me and it took me a bit to get it under control.

Note to self: wigs are a lot different than real hair… duh!

One of the other fun parts of the shoot for me was playing with natural light that was coming in from the two large windows we have in the studio. Living in Washington we don’t get a lot of sunshine, so most of the time I work with studio light. Taking advantage of the great weather I took a couple of great soft shots of Mary on the old antique couch. What a great contrast to a velvet heavy previous set!

Mary has a weakness for beautiful high heel shoes, and those are amazing! I loved them so much I had to bring them into focus. If they were my size I would accept them as payment for the shoot =) … just joking!

 

“My girlfriend had pictures done with Victoria and loved it, so I decided to explore the ONI Studios website and Facebook page. I loved Victoria’s work and decided to get with her on doing some for my husband’s upcoming deployment. Victoria came up with the idea of a Marie Antoinette spin and being a bit of a history buff, I loved the idea. I went to buycostumes.com and ordered a wig, lovers had a corset I liked and then threw odds and ends from my drawers in a bag. I will be honest in saying that as a woman in the military with two children and my own little insecurities I was a bit nervous of how things would go when I got there.
My experience was Amazing to say the least! Victoria put together these looks so well from just whatever I had and Ashley was great at tying everything up with her ideas. You girls are a talented, winning team! Everything felt glamorous and Victoria is great at making it all very comfortable! Leaving her studio I have a new sense of self-confidence and my own sexuality. I can’t wait to surprise my husband with this gift for his upcoming deployment and can’t wait to do another shoot at ONI! Maybe we can do 18th Century next time. Thank you Victoria and Ashley.

Much love,
Mary”

 

I just finished a very interesting shoot with my new client Courtney. She traveled all the way from Bremerton early this morning and was prepared for location and studio shoots with a variety of looks and outfits.

Ashley from Make Up Your Mind was on location to work her magic with hair and make-up. We decided to go with a softer, more natural look for the beach shots and later spiced it up for studio sultry look. It is so much fun to play with make-up and I always learn something new just by watching Ashley work.

Ashley wrote in her blog about this experience as well:

“Yesterday morning I had yet another great opportunity to work with Oni Studio and one of their clients for an on location photo shoot. This was the first time I have ever gone on location with Victoria and I really loved every second of it! Not only did the make up turn out the way I wanted it to, but I got to meet two awesome ladies from Bremerton, WA who drove an hour and took a ferry to get to us. Talk about love and dedication!

We had a wide variety of clothing to work with, which made for lots of wardrobe changes. To make it easier for myself and for the client, I chose to do something more natural and neutral for the first part of the shoot. We were at the beach and the wardrobe was more of a country style, so the natural look was perfect. I stuck to taupe and a little gold and bronze shimmer on the lids with a very fine  brown eyeliner only at the lash line. The cheeks were mostly bronzer with a pop of pink on the apples, and a muted pink lip. Perfect country look!

Our client finished off the shoot in studio with a smoking hot red and black corset, so we vamped her up a bit. I added a smoky grey to the outer corners and in the crease of the eyes and a black cat-eye liner and a bright red lip to match her outfit. Gorgeous! I can’t wait to see some of the finished products!

I can’t forget to mention Courtney’s friend Jessica, who was chasing her with a hot pink bathrobe around the beach, pouring water on the umbrella to make it look like rain and organizing outfits like a personal stylist. She was the perfect wing man to have for a photo shoot!

It was a pleasure to meet these two ladies, and I hope that Courtney is happy with her photos!”
