I loved hanging out with Nikki and Emily and getting to hear about their relationship during their couples boudoir session in October. These two booked a session to celebrate 9 years together and 4 years married, and the joy and peace they had being in each other’s presence was an absolute honor and pleasure to be surrounded by as I hung out with them that morning through the afternoon.
To have a more intimate feel, they borrowed a relative’s home for their boudoir session, and after Nikki whipped me up a delicious sweet potato and bacon hash brown casserole (um, I’d like to have this happen more often, yes please!) we got to shooting. Check out the portraits below from this sweet and delectable (or should I say, edible) couples boudoir session!
What 3 things were you most nervous about going into your session?
1. Being naked in front of a stranger
2. I thought I'd hate myself in the pictures
3. Maybe that’s all
How did the reality of your session compare to your expectations going into it?
Reality was MUCH more comfortable than what we expected.
What was your favorite part of the experience?
Favorite part has got to be the image reveal, but DURING the shoot, my favorite part was Ore’s prompts. The "what do you like, not love" question is gonna stick with me for sure.
How do you feel now that you've completed the session?
Amazing. Literally telling every couple and woman I know to book this shit immediately.
Is there anything at all you wish we would have done differently or think we could do to further enhance the experience in the future?
I think our only regret is not booking more time as there were scenes we didn't have time to get to!
Would you recommend Intimate Lens Studio to others?
Absolutely, already have.
Would you do a boudoir session again?
Most def, I'll have my people call your people.
In 500 words or less, based on your experience, what would you tell someone who was thinking about booking a boudoir session with Intimate Lens Studio?
Absolutely a couples sesh is an amazing experience, even for someone who thinks they'd never be comfortable like that. The experience of the shoot, combined with the photos we get to keep is worth every penny.
What was your absolute most favorite photo from your boudoir session, and what makes it special?
Black and white tub make out....I love our connection in the photo, but the composition & lighting make it.
Anything I haven't asked that you would like to add?
No questions, but we'd like to add that you're amazing and so talented it's scary.
