Both of my studio camera rooms have various sets to allow me to create an
intimate session. My Mentor and Solon studios have a neutral fireplace
that looks great in a boudoir setting. These false fireplaces were purchased
at a local home improvement store (you can find one at Lowe’s, Home
Depot, etc.). Various sized chairs (especially armless ones) are also great for
this type of session.
Earlier in the book, I mentioned that I also use mosquito netting to
soften an image, conceal imperfections, and add texture in an image. When
I started out, I used quite a few mosquito nets in each setting. You can
readily find mosquito netting in a variety of colors from stores like World
Market or Pier1 Imports.
