Whether you’re celebrating an engagement, looking for a unique Valentine’s Day gift for your partner or simply want to celebrate your body in all its beauty, boudoir photography is an increasingly popular gift – for a loved one or yourself. These reputable photographers offer private and marathon boudoir photography sessions.
Karla Muzyka, the photographer behind Lipstick and Lace, focuses on elegant and tasteful boudoir photographs. Her private boudoir photography studio is located in her home. There are two options for backgrounds: A French apartment-style studio and a room featuring a white stone wall and lots of natural light. She also offers on-location shoots and portrait shoots, if you prefer something less racy than boudoir photos. Karla also does “goddess shoots,” which are “an artistic expression of the goddess qualities that you embrace in yourself.” Final photos will receive a skin polish, removing blemishes, bruises, et cetera.
