So... You have decided that a boudoir photo shoot is something you really want to do.... What happens next? For most women, this is the first time they will be doing an intimate photo shoot of this nature, and they will definitely be very nervous. This is totally normal! A boudoir photo shoot is something outside of your comfort zone and we are very aware of how scary and, at the same time, exciting it feels when you are preparing for it. However, keep in mind, it is a fun, exciting and empowering experience, and our amazing team are here to assist you every step of the way. We will discuss the location options for your photo shoot with you, prior to your shoot. However, most photo shoots take place in our natural light studio that is set-up like a luxurious hotel suite. We often do boudoir shoots on location, so the photo shoot can also take place at your home or a boutique hotel… It is your choice! The night before your boudoir shoot, make sure everything you want to bring with is packed, don't forget your special jewellery, shoes, outfits and panties. For ideas on what to bring with, please check out our "what to bring" page and our Pinterest boards, which we are always updating with beautiful ideas. Wash your hair and let it dry naturally, do last minute hair removal, moisturise and have a good nights rest. It is finally here, the big day, and the butterflies are probably doing flip flops in your tummy! To help calm your nerves, when you arrive, we will welcome you with a chilled glass of champagne. Then you will spend an hour and a half being pampered and transformed into the sexy goddess you are by our Make-up Artist and Hairstylist. The chilled glass of bubbly, selection of sexy corsets, pretty lingerie and lacy items set a romantic and beautiful mood for your shoot. When you are ready, you change into your first outfit and the magic begins. We will assist and guide you through posing, outfit choices (if needed) and looking and feeling fabulous in-front of the camera. There will be a few outfit changes during the shoot, and we normally end off with an ‘implied nude’ shoot. This is very sexy; you pose with a sheet that is strategically and creatively placed. Gorgeous make-up and hair, stunning outfits, fabulous posing and soft beautiful light results in incredible images of you. Within three days of your shoot, you will be sent a link to your images which are in a safe and password protected online album. Here you choose your final images, and we should warn you its hard to choose! These images are the ones we do a little post-production on, we remove unwanted marks without changing you or your body shape. We love our ladies to look as natural and as glamorous as possible.
The thing we hear most from our clients is: “This is completely out of my comfort zone” or “I have never done anything like this before”. Hearing those words, always makes us smile… If it was something every woman did, or was in their comfort zone, women wouldn’t have such negative perceptions of themselves. At femme fatale boudoir, we aim to make every woman feel and look like the gorgeous and sexy goddess, they are. As well as, boost their self-esteem and help them fall in-love with themselves again. All photo shoots are personalised to each woman's style, taste, physique and personality, as we are all unique... You deserve an exclusive experience and photo shoot. So when you are ready to love-you-for-you .... Send us an email or give us a call. We can't wait to show you how gorgeous and sexy you are! Love the femme fatale girls xxx

We love all things sexy and beautiful, and boudoir is often inspired by style icons like Marilyn Monroe or Dita von Teese. Add some of their vintage flair to your boudoir shoot with an ultra sexy slip, paired with a beautiful bra, to-die-for heels and a feathered dressing gown.

The femme fatale girls XXX 24/3/2015 0 Comments divine mrs dMrs D is a divine and amazing lady...she came into our studio a few months after the birth of her third child. She wanted to give her hubby a gift to remember, and we really think she did! She brought along a friend for moral support and soon the studio was filled with laughter and champagne, while Shandre did her fabulous Make-up. As soon as Mrs D was all ready to start her shoot...her sultry and sexy attitude came out, and she worked extremely well with us to create these amazing images. There is something very special about Mrs D...and it shines through in everything she does...she is 100% comfortable in her own skin. When asked what her secret to loving herself is, she said it's all about her amazing husband. He is incredibly supportive of everything she does, and he always shows her that he loves her just the way she is. Once the shoot was done, Mrs D had a very special request...which totally threw us a curve ball! She wanted no retouching or enhancement done to herself in the photos! So here we are sharing images that are not retouched (this is not the norm and not something we would normally do but this was a very special circumstance). Mrs D shared her story with us, which totally melted our hearts and we agreed to this special request. In a nut shell, she wanted to prove to her teenage daughter that you do not need to be Photoshopped to be beautiful! This fabulous lady came into our studio, touched our hearts and inspired us! She showed us, which we have always believed, every woman is beautiful! She changed the way we saw ourselves and made us realise, we are perfect just the way we are! Thank you Mrs D for coming into our lives, for being so inspirational, and for becoming a friend that is incredibly supportive and non-judgmental in every way. Here is a peak at the Divine Mrs D's boudoir shoot: Love

The femme fatale girls XXX 10/3/2015 0 Comments foxy miss roxyFoxy Miss Roxy was the third stunning young lady that was brave enough to pose for Chantal on the Fotacs stage at the 2014 Photo and Film Expo. She is a photography student who was kind enough and brave enough to step in at the last minute when Chantal's model was unable to join her.
Roxy is so beautiful with sexy long legs, striking features and stunning blue eyes. To top it off, she has a fabulous tattoo, and we just love working with ladies who have tattoos! Roxy was amazing to work with... She is so fun and vibrant. We are definitely going to do more shoots with her! Roxy was ready to rock the shoot on stage, as soon as Monique finished her gorgeous hair and make-up. She shone and owned the stage, even though she was sitting on the most uncomfortable ladder with a lot of lights and cameras pointed at her. Roxy was so fantastic, she was even willing to try a few different things, such as blowing rose petals from her hands to demonstrate the versatility of continuous lighting. Thank you to the people who assisted Chantal with the demo photo shoot:
Here are a few photos from Chantal's demo photo shoot with foxy Miss Roxy Love The femme fatale girls XXX This weeks beautiful style guide is inspired by soft blues and tans ... these are beautiful colours for a boudoir shoot. Our favourite part is the nude heels, we love them as they make legs look like they go on for ever! Add a string of fabulous pearls, or a simple statement gold necklace and the outfit is simple, elegant and very sensual. Love
The femme fatale girls XXX 2/3/2015 2 Comments what is boudoir photography? Every woman is beautiful, sexy and glamorous, although they often do not feel that way. Sometimes everyday life doesn’t allow women to apply the perfect make-up or dress-up in the fabulous outfit that hides at the back of their closet. But…What women don’t realize is that the men in their lives see them as sexy and beautiful even though they cannot see it themselves. What exactly is Boudoir Photography? The easiest way to explain it is to define Boudoir: French for a woman’s private room or bedroom. In photography terms: Boudoir can be a bedroom, hotel or anywhere that creates an intimate location for classy and sensual images. We define Boudoir Photography as the art of capturing beautiful, glamorous and sexy photographs of women, in an intimate setting. This means you can be any age, height or weight...Every woman is gorgeous and deserves to feel that way. Our gorgeous femme fatale ladies come from all different walks of life, some are moms, some are wives, some are business women, and some are brides .... All are equally fabulous and beautiful in every way. Each one of them has a story to tell about their journey to feeling great in their own skin, why not read a few of their stories on our testimonial page.
So when you are ready, send us an email or give us a call, we can't wait to help you on your journey of loving yourself again! Love the femme fatale girls XXX |
