Boudoir portraiture has been my most rewarding style of photography.
If and when I retire, I truly hope to just concentrate on this style of pho-
tography. If you can make your client look and feel gorgeous, you’ll have
her as a customer for life. This style of portraiture is demanding and very
high end, so make sure you charge for it. You’ll find that most photogra-
phers will attempt to offer this style, and most will fail by not capturing the
emotion and beauty that the subject wants to share. Studying art, lighting
and composition, and knowing your equipment will make you very suc-
cessful in creating these fine art images!
