Boudoir Pictures questions

II have been trying to think of something super special to do for my FI and a friend suggested this and I actually know someone who does this professional, so I would have the advantage of being a little more comfortable with my photographer than I would be with someone I didn't know...

I know FI would LOVE this (I mean, what guy wouldn't?) but I am not exactly sure what to do with the pictures afterwords. These would be for his eyes only (I am not the most confident in my body, but who is I guess) so I just dont know when or in what format I would be able to give these to him privately.  

Have any of you ladies done boudoir pics?  Do you have any advise/suggestions to give?  Let me know your experiences and what exactly you plan on doing with the pictures!

  • I'm hoping to do them if I can get my butt back in shape.  I plan on making him a photobook.  I won't take any that are too risque, so I'm going to give it to him on the day of the wedding and if anyone else sees them, it won't be that big of a deal.

  • I am not doing them but I have heard of ladies making photobooks and giving them to FI before the wedding.

  • I have done it and had a great time. My photographer highly recommended lash extensions, I didn't think it was that important, but she did so I did them. I have not seen my proofs yet, so I can't tell you how much of a difference they made. I am purchasing the CD of images but giving FI a small album on our wedding day. It will be wrapped and delivered by my MOH the day of the wedding. Good luck and have fun!

  • I was going to make a book online but my fiance wants prints instead.  yes, I told him about the pix because i wasn't sure if he would want them or not.  i'm not sure how to go about printing them though becuase i don't want store clerks creeping (and they do!).

    haha, this is what I was thinking about.  My photographer does prints herself, so depending on how many I want, I may just have her develop them.  I don't plan to get too risky, but still.
