Boudoir Photos

Is anyone doing these?  I am thinking about it but am nervous about giving them to him!  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 :)  General thoughts on these?

  • I did it and made it into a shutterfly book-it was a lot of fun!

    When are you giving them to your FI?

  • I didn't do them just because its not me and I don't see what you do with them afterwards. However I think if I were you I would give it to him the night of the wedding or the first night of the honeymoon.
  • I love boudoir and highly recommend it!  You feel really great after, both mentally and physically (it's a work out!).  I'm actually getting mine done late, not until 4 days before the wedding, so the album will be a birthday present.  But I know a lot of girls give their guy the album either the night before the wedding (if you're sleeping apart) or the morning of.  Sort of a "This is what you get to look forward to if you don't chicken out" sort of gift.

    I believe in a lot of things. I believe in fresh tennis balls, the healing power of bunnies, and that the novels of Susan Sontag are something I'll never read. In fact, I don't even know who Susan Sontag is. What is she... like... a painter? I believe in Crystal Lite because I believe in ME. I believe in the movies of Val Kilmer, though these days it ain't so easy. I believe in Darren Sproles, the word "dabble", the first season of "Silk Stockings", and big, warm, moist, gooey chocolate chip cookies that melt in your mouth and all over your face.

    About 3-4 years ago I used to model and do a LOT of these types of shots (more artsy) but they would be sold to different promo companies for club fliers and what not and yes, it DEFINITELY is a work out! And you do feel great. Gotta love that photoshop :) I'm not doing any bc I LITERALLY can't fit another thing in my to do list, but I have a bunch of pics I can gather for him eventually. He's seen most of them. Lol! 
  • I did them and made a shutterfly album. It was a blast. I already gave them to him for his birthday, but if I hadn't he'd have gotten them the night before the wedding.

  • I did boudoir photos. I had so much fun doing it and I love all the pictures. It's definitely a confidence booster. :) I honestly haven't decided when to give them to him though. I plan on giving him a watch too, he'll get that the day of the wedding. The night before the wedding I'm staying at the hotel with my bridesmaids. Two days before the wedding will be our rehearsal and our last night together before we're married. Perhaps I'll give them to him then. Yeah..I think that's what I'll do. (I'm glad I was able to talk myself through this scenario while typing. lol)

  • Thanks for the input ladies! I went ahead and made the appointment with my photographer for the 26th! It's perfect since he will be away for his bach party that weekend! I am excited and nervous too :)  I plan to give it to him the night before the wedding.  Now what to wear?? Hmmmm
    I ordered a cute white lacey thing from VS with matching boyshorts and that is all I can think of at the moment!  I am thinking of wearing something Eagles themed since he loves them and we did that for our engagement photos too. Wish me luck!
