“How revealing do I have to be at my photo session?”

“How revealing do I have to be at my photo session?”

is a common question from clients. Some women know

right away, that they want to go all the way with nudes or

semi-nudes.Or they love the silhouette poses and know

that’s as much nudity as they feel comfortable with.

My clients tell me they are much more relaxed with me,

being a female photographer, and can be more open to trying more sensuous poses.

They are sure their guy would like to see more of their body, but

they are reluctant because they aren’t sure if they will look good.

That’s where good lighting, strategic posing, the perfect wardrobe,

and Photoshop play a big role.

At your pre-session consultation we can discuss the poses

you feel most comfortable with.  However, how revealing

or conservative you want to be is up to you.

Why do all my clients have such smooth looking legs in their photographs? No veins, no bruises, no cellulite?

I provide my clients with a special brand of panty hose that they wear under their lingerie.  Even with the skimpiest outfits we can hide the small band around the  waist and the thin seam in front.  They aren’t shiny so there is no glare either.  My younger, thinner clients can go without the panty hose, but even the slimmest figures may have a bruise they need to hide.  Of course, you can’t wear them with nude photographs, but that’s where retouching comes in.  Once you book your appointment with my studio that secret is revealed.

My clients are not all a size 6 or 26 years old.

Many women that call my studio, Intimate Photography, are concerned that they are not at their goal weight and wonder how their photographs will look.  They want to look beautiful and sexy.

The first thing I tell them is that we can minimize the features they don’t feel comfortable with, and highlight the features they like about their shape.  Most women have a feature that their guy loves about them.  Sometimes it’s their legs,  back, or the definition in their arms. After all, the photographs are for him.

With the correct lighting, wardrobe selection and posing, any woman can look sensual.  I’ve been photographing women for many years and find that women are their worst critics. I get emails and letters from husbands and boyfriends thanking me for bringing out the best in their women.

And…don’t forget ladies…there’s always retouching!                                                                                                                                      Barbara Steinberg, Photographer                                                                                                                                                                               www.intimatephotography.com
