Five Reasons Why You Need To Print Your Boudoir Photos
We live our lives in the digital realm these days, but the physical world has its benefits. I’m going to go over the 5 reasons why you should print your boudoir photos, and not just leave them in a folder on your computer.
- Data gets lost.
Ever updated your phone and realized your photos are gone because you forgot to do a backup? Do you remember where you keep every single file you have saved to your hard drive? I know I don’t, and I’m a digital hoarder. Sure, we can set aside time to go through our files every now and again, but frankly, I’d rather have a root canal than go digging in the digital abyss for something that so may or may not have accidentally trashed months or years ago. And what if you accidentally deleted your boudoir photos? A photo album can sit on your bookshelf, and you’ll always know where it is. Keep it wherever you want, my albums keepsake boxes are amazing decor pieces, as well.
What If You Lose Them?
- Digital drives become obsolete
When was the last time you saw a floppy drive on a computer? Or a CD-ROM drive? A DVD drive? Even USB drives are slowly becoming obsolete because newer computers don’t have that type of USB port anymore. A printed book won’t suddenly stop working, and will always be there for you. My beautiful handmade photo albums last for many years to come, and the amazing keepsake box it comes in will keep it pristine forever.
- You forget you have them
Your photos are meant to be seen. And we tend to forget we have data on our hard disks that we put there to look at later. When we forget it’s there, we don’t look at it. And inevitably, one day you’ll upgrade your computer, and lose your images, those images you paid a lot of money for. When you know your photos are in a beautiful album, or even hanging on your wall, you’ll always be reminded of an amazingly fun day.
- Albums are just awesome.
I’m a bibliophile. I like books. I love how they look, and how they feel in my hands when I’m reading. I know that I can get a lot of books in digital form, but I don’t get the same satisfaction from looking at a book, or a photo, on a screen. Printing them makes them real, tactile, and just so much cooler.
Prints Are Awesome!
- Wall art just looks amazing
It’s true, having your own portrait hanging on your wall or standing on a shelf, that’s just an amazing sight to wake up to every morning. My wall art is made of metal and is ready to hang on your wall. The metal prints look so great, like the image just wants to jump off the print. Simply gorgeous, you’ll love how you look on metal. And just imagine yourself on a print bigger than most big screen televisions!
I have put together a lot of beautiful products that my clients go absolutely gaga over, and I'm certain you'll love them as well. Oh, and by the way, if you purchase one of my collections you'll get the digitals included at no additional cost. They're in ready to share on social media sizes, because if it's not on Facebook did it really happen?
5 Reasons to Consider Hiring a Male Boudoir Photographer
Boudoir empowers. Boudoir emboldens and gives confidence. I believe in it to its core. While it is most common to have a woman photographer, I want to share a few reasons you should consider hiring a male boudoir photographer for your experience.
The Male Gaze
1. Men and women typically see women differently. Through a different set of experiences, a different mentality, and a different intent/goals. What men find sexy and what women find sexy are typically different things. A woman might say something like, "That old tank top? That isn't sexy." But a man might say that that old tank top is his favorite outfit on you, because he thinks you're at your most beautiful when you're casual and off guard.
Feedback From A Guy's Perspective
2. I've been told that since my clients are getting these portraits as a gift for their husband, they want a man's opinion and perspective.
Me: "Which pictures do you want in your gift album?"
Her: "You pick them out since you are a guy, you will know what he likes more than I will!"
In the same vein if I needed to get a gift for my wife I would probably ask a woman for advice too. Although she'll probably kill me for not knowing what she wants!
A Familiar Dynamic
3. A common consensus is that it can be easier for a woman to show her sexy side in front of the camera with a male photographer because it's a dynamic they are somewhat familiar with.
Experience
4. Playboy, FHM, Maxim, and Sports Illustrated Swim Suit Edition are mostly shot by male photographers. Boudoir as an industry is dominated by women photographers because of the perception that the client and her spouse will feel more comfortable if they are shot by a woman. Know that both male and female photographers are focusing on posing, lighting, emotion and experience. We are really not looking at 'you' but at creating the best images. I promise you will have a comfortable, fun and professional experience.
Find the best photographer
5. Find the photographer who makes you feel accepted, sexy, and with a style you can't resist. They will leave you on cloud 9 reminding you that you are beautiful, powerful, sexy and special. The photographer should be the best at their craft and make you feel relaxed and comfortable above all.
