Boudoir shoots are often inspired by the style icons from the past, and there is no one classier than Coco Chanel.  We love how this weeks boudoir style guide takes key elements from her style to make a classy yet sexy look.  Soft pinks, sophisticated pearls and sensual black lingerie give a beautiful yet elegant look to your shoot.

We never really need an excuse to do a shoot, but our awesome sponsors, Fotacs, distributors of Vanguard Camera Equipment and Photon Lighting, recently gave us the perfect one. They needed a "behind the scenes" photo of us using their fantastic products, to demonstrate how we use them. For us, this was just an excuse to have both of us in studio... at the same time... which is very rare, and so much fun!

Rozi is not only one of our fabulous makeup & hair stylists... she is also a lady we love to work with! You may even recognise her, from some of our previous work. She is everything we love at Femme Fatale... sensual, sexy and beautiful.

However, this time, we wanted something a little different... something that complemented both Rozi's and our darker and more adventurous side. So, we settled on a steampunk theme and created a set at the Fotacs studio in Centurion.  As Rozi is so talented, she did her own makeup and hair styling and provided the outfit as well.

As you now know, the main aim was really to get some behind the scenes photos for our sponsors. But obviously, we did get  some really great shots of Rozi!  Have a peek at what we got up to, on this fun shoot:

Thank you to our sponsors Fotacs, for always allowing us to have fun, when working with you!

Deciding and booking to do a boudoir shoot, is both exciting and nerve-wracking all at the same time, for any lady. And, this was especially true for the gorgeous Ms C.  Even though she had met us before, she was still nervous when she arrived at our studio. It took several sips of champagne, before she calmed down and started to have fun.

Shandre, one of our amazing Makeup and Hairstylist, created a gorgeous soft purple smokey eye for Ms C, that we loved and suited her to a T. At first, we tried to tame Ms C's beautiful curly hair. However, the more we tried, the wilder it became... BUT you have to admit, these wild curls are incredibly sexy and look amazing on camera.

Sexy, wild and fabulous, are the words that come to mind when we think of Ms C. We had the best time with her and can't wait for her to visit us, for her next shoot.

Here is a peek at the gorgeous Ms C's boudoir shoot:
