Is anyone doing these? I am thinking about it but am nervous! When would be an appropriate time to give them to him?? The night before the wedding? My photographer does them so I am trying to strike up a deal :) Anyone have general thoughts on these?

Just make sure you trust your photographer and make sure you have a contract that covers that the pictures will not be posted online and things like that.

Ditto Redhead.

I was strongly considering doing them but the more I've had time to think about it the more I've become a bit put-off by it. I might do it at some point in the future (ie before we start having kids).

I did them and gave him the album the night before the wedding. He loved it. I couldn't be happier with my decision to do these - it was a huge confidence booster. I didn't do any nude shots, all were wearing some sort of lingerie or DH's Vikings jersey (probably his favorite pics). I never knew I could look so gorgeous & sexy.

I'm doing them next Tuesday! I'm super excited. Definitely look into it if you want to, but don't feel like you must. A lot of people say that they'd rather spend that money on lingerie, and that's fine too.

The main reason I'm doing them is because of a Groupon. Otherwise I probably wouldn't. I got a package that is usually $250 for $75. I am still paying tip based on the original price, so around $50, but overall I am still paying less than I would have without the deal.

I am doing one as well. I've always wanted to do a boudoir shoot, but always thought they were too expensive. Like em, I got a great deal on a package from Groupon. I've taken some sexy pics for FI before using the timer on my digital camera, so I'm excited to get some lovely, professionally done photos. I'll probably hold on to them to give to FI as a birthday or anniversary present though.

I was thinking of doing this as well but I'm also nervous. I was thinking of giving them either the night before the wedding or as a V-day gift the year we get married.

I haven't decided yet, but I love the idea of Bourdoir pics. I know my fiance would really appreciate them. I have some friends that do fetish photography, so I may end up doing a session.

Our photographer is coming to Paris with us in April to take engagement photos, and I am also having boudoir shots done while we are there. I am super excited! I couldn't keep the secret from my fiance, and he is more excited than I am! I plan on giving them to him the night before the wedding after the rehearsal dinner.
