    Emily Gualdoni, www dot egualdoniphotography dot com, email her at equaldoni at yahoo dot comshe did boudoir pictures for me and my best friend, it was $100 or $120 for a session, she photographs you in her studio (at her apartment) in the city on the north side of the loop, she is very hip & cool, fun to work with, you can change costumes to you want, how ever many, tell her want you want or like/dislike, you can be as revealing as you are comfortable with.....she sends you all the pictures she takes on a dvd and you can do whatever you like with them, the price includes I believe 5 edited pictures by her, otherwise you can use microsoft picture manager or any photoshop to edit yourself, very easy

    Good question! I was thinking about doing this for our 1 yr anniversary.....since I never got to before the wedding. I know we just got married about a month ago but I want to start planning this and get it done kinda soon....just incase there are any baby bumps in my future. Thanks for asking this qu because I was just going to :)

    Kara Schultz - she does marathon sessions that include the book, so it's pretty reasonable. I don't remember exactly how much - around $250, I think? And I paid extra to have my makeup done. I LOVED the pictures - it was an awesome experience!She has some sample pics on her website... http://www.karatography.com/

    I used Leah Stafford, but she does marathon sessions in Chicago and books up fast, so you have to keep on top of her blog to find out when she'll be here. However, I would also recommend our photographer that did our wedding. My friends loved our photos so much that they booked their boudoir with her and they turned out AWESOME! Robyn Martin with Studio R in Chicago. She's in the West Loop. http://studiorblog.com/

    we saw the boudoir from the following photographers:leah staffordkaratographydanielle aquilinefor boudoir i think leah stafford had the most to show but her prices were kind of a ripoff if you ask me. i think danielle aquiline had the best quality.
