26/4/2016 0 Comments a glamour shoot with mrs kMrs K visited our studio, as she wanted to surprise her husband with some gorgeous photos for his desk. And, boy, is he happy with the results and just loves the stunning photos sitting on his desk... I mean who wouldn't... Mrs K is gorgeous!
As with all our clients, Mrs K was a little nervous when she arrived for her shoot but was also extremely excited. Once, we started going through her outfits & accessories, her nerves subsided and the excitement started to take over! Shandre did Mrs K's beautiful hair & makeup... she loved her sexy soft curls...and so did we! Mrs K is the one of the sweetest & kindest ladies, we have ever met... when we dropped off her stunning photos, she even bought us a coffee and we sat & chatted for over an hour. She is defiantly more like a friend than a client. Here is a peek at her gorgeous glamorous photos:

We can't express our love for shoes in words alone as there just aren't enough... from peep-toes to stilettos... nude, black or bling! We are always so excited to see what shoes our ladies bring to our studio. When creating the final look for an outfit, we do however need to consider how the shoes will look on camera, and will they accentuate our ladies and their look. Here is a few shoes do's and don'ts, to think about when planning for your photo shoot.
With so many choices, styles and designs... it's hard not to fall in love with shoes! Whether they are the statement piece in your outfit, or there to complete the look... we hope this guide helps you, when planning your photo shoot. Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 12/4/2016 1 Comment beautiful ms mMs M came to our studio, as she was looking for a few gorgeous photos of herself...And she definitely walked out with more than a few stunning photos! She wanted a sensual but still beautiful photo shoot, with more focus on glamour shots than boudoir ones. When Ms M arrived, she was so excited yet extremely nervous. But, calmed down quickly, once Monique started to wave her magic brushes and do her hair and makeup. This lady is not only gorgeous, but also has a scarf addiction... she bought so many different and beautiful scarves with her to the shoot. It was so hard to choose which to incorporate, as we loved them all! Ms M is fabulous and beautiful in every way... and her wicked sense of humour, had us giggling the whole way through her shoot! Between her sexy red leather jacket and her pretty scarves, her shoot ended up being a combination of glamour and boudoir. Have a peek at this weeks femme fatale, Ms M: Love the femme fatale girls xxx
We at femme fatale would like to take this opportunity to wish all women a very happy International Women's Day! To all our beautiful and inspiring ladies, we know that it is because of you that the world is a better place, and may we all strive together to make it even more so. Love
the femme fatale girls xxx Last week we posted the first part of the stunning Chantelle Swart's (former Mrs South Africa) cupcake concept shoot. In the second part of her shoot, Monique changed Chantelle's look completely. It went from bright rainbow colours to moody blues and purples... which we loved as much as the rainbow colours! This stunning colour combination really made Chantelle's beautiful eyes pop! Although this is not makeup that we would wear everyday, it certainly does accentuate her natural beauty. We were very lucky to have had the most amazing team working with us on this concept shoot, and we would like to thank all of them for their hard work and dedication to making this concept come true! Chantelle, you are gorgeous, and we loved working with you! L'il Delights, your cupcakes were both beautiful and delicious and kept our energy levels up during the day! Lastly to Monique, your makeup is fabulous and you really out did yourself on this shoot! Below are the gorgeous photos from this awesome concept shoot: Our awesome partners on this shoot: Model: Chantelle Swart Cupcakes: L'il Delights Alberton Makeup & Hairstyling: Makeup by Monique Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 23/2/2016 0 Comments concept shoot: rainbow cupcakeWhat happens when you have the beautiful Chantelle Swart (former Mrs South Africa), a talented Makeup artist like Monique, a bright colour palette of makeup and delicious cupcakes from L'il Delights...all in our studio at once? We go crazy of course! With an array of bright funky colours at our disposal, we had the best fun in our studio towards the end of 2015! The concept of the shoot was not to eat the cupcake, but to be the cupcake! And, oh boy, Monique sure did the most amazing makeup with bold splashes of colour. Chantelle was really awesome to work with, such a beautiful lady in every way and we definitely are looking forward to working with her again! Below are some of the awesome colourful photos from the shoot: Our awesome partners on this shoot: Model: Chantelle Swart Makeup & Hairstyling: Makeup by Monique Cupcakes: L'il Delights Alberton Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 16/2/2016 0 Comments our little black books ...We live in a digital age, where social media plays a huge part in our lives. Yet, there is something extremely special about giving & receiving printed photographs. And, it's even more precious to receive these printed photos in a luxurious leather bound album... feeling the heaviness of the book, along with the soft feel of genuine leather on your hands...definitely has an air of elegance and sophistication to it. This is why at femme fatale we only use a top quality printing lab, Rapid Professional, who cater to the needs of top photographers in South Africa. Not only are they Proudly South African, with all the printing done in Johannesburg, but they have an attention to detail and quality that ensures all of our ladies albums are perfect and beautiful, every time... which is so important to us! All of our 'little black books' are from the exclusive wedding range, meaning the pages are beautifully printed on high quality paper and do not bend. When opening your album, it lays flat so we can print right over the middle without loosing any detail. The softest high quality leather is used for the cover and to add to the sensual feel, we specially designed the cover with ribbon detail... just for you! We offer our ladies three different size albums, the discrete 15x15cm, the modest 20x20cm and the daring 30x30cm, so we have the perfect size to fit both your personality and budget. They all come presented in their own gorgeous black box, meaning there is very little you need to do when giving the perfect gift to your partner! Love the femme fatale girls xxx 9/2/2016 0 Comments radiant ms rOften when our ladies walk into our studio, we are astounded by their beauty, and also by their lack of confidence and self esteem. Ms R was one of these ladies ... she is a blonde bombshell, and drop dead gorgeous. We couldn't believe that she didn't see how fabulous she was. While Ms R sipped on some champagne, we unpacked her outfits, and wow they were beautiful. We loved the detail of every piece, and especially the Marilyn Monroe inspired purple swimsuit which looked amazing on camera! Ms R's nerves slowly disappeared as Shandre did her gorgeous hair and makeup, and then it was time to start the shoot. At first Ms R was worried about how to look sexy on camera, but that changed after we showed her the first photos. Suddenly everything changed, it was an incredibly special thing to watch as her self confidence grew with every photo we took ... we just love the sultry attitude she started giving us. After the shoot Ms R sent us the most beautiful message about the experience, here is what she had to say: "I would like to thank you, Chantal and Makeup by Shandre for the wonderful experience! Thank you so very much for doing my makeup, Shandrè. It was absolutely stunning! Have a peak at this amazing, beautiful and oh-so-sexy femme fatale .... The radiant Ms R Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 2/2/2016 0 Comments sexy ms sFrom the minute we met Ms S at one of the Wedding Expo's last year, we just knew she would be fabulous on camera. She is not only sassy and sexy but also a beautiful mom of one. She decided to do her boudoir shoot with us for herself ... our favourite reason! Ms S was pampered by Monique, who made her look and feel gorgeous, with stunning hair styling and soft feminine makeup, which made her beautiful eyes pop! We just loved her outfit selection, some playful outfits, a few sensual ones and then the long over-the-knee socks, which caused many giggles in the studio! A true beauty in every way, we loved working with her and cant wait to do it again ... Here is a peak at this gorgeous femme fatale's boudoir shoot: Sexy Ms S Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 26/1/2016 2 Comments beautiful ms dThe beautiful Ms D recently visited us for her second femme fatale boudoir experience, and she is just amazing in front of the camera! This sexy and sassy mom of three is an inspiration to us and all other women. As she is not only totally comfortable and confident in her own skin but also embraces her stunning curves. This time around Ms D wasn't at all nervous, instead excitement filled our studio as we went through the gorgeous outfits she had brought along with her. The items worth a special mention, as we are heel addicts, are her to-die-for Iron Fist shoe collection. Before we started the shoot and while Ms D sipped on some chilled bubbly, Shandre did her magic, which resulted in beautiful makeup and hair styling. Ms D is really special to us, if you have seen her previous shoot, you may remember that she requested that we did not photoshop, or edit her images, in any way. She knows she is is gorgeous and wants to prove to her daughter that photoshop is not necessary to make you look beautiful and sexy. This time was no different, and we do have to agree with her .... she is beautiful just the way she is! Here is a peak at a true femme fatale's boudoir shoot ... Beautiful Ms D: Love

the femme fatale girls xxx 15/12/2015 0 Comments the milk bath ...As this is our last blog post for 2015, we thought it should be something not only inspiring but also a little different. On the last day of the Photo & Film Expo on the Vanguard Training Stage, Chantal decided to demonstrate how to photograph the beautiful milk bath. The milk bath has always been something that has fascinated women throughout the ages, the most famous of those was Cleopatra. She was said to be the most beautiful woman on earth, her soft radiant skin was the envy of everyone, and she said her secret was to bathe in donkey's milk. She used to add honey, lavender and rose petals to scent it, but as you can imagine, this is just not practical to do in a photo-shoot situation. Therefore, we re-created the milk bath scene using a kiddies blowup pool filled with warm water, a bottle of Fenjal Bath Oil and a bunch of flowers. While Monique did Roxy's gorgeous hair and makeup, we set everything up. The set included a ladder, a versatile Vanguard tripod and Photon Continuous lights. We just love how the water moves around the body, and how sensual and beautiful the Milk Bath is. It is definitely something we want to do again. Here is a peak at the gorgeous Roxy in the Milk Bath: The ladies at femme fatale boudoir would like to thank everyone who attended the talks, and especially a big thank you to our fabulous sponsors: Photon Lighting and Vanguard Camera Bags & Tripods for the opportunity to not only represent them, but also for allowing us to demonstrate how to use their wonderful products on stage at the Photo & Film Expo. Love
the femme fatale girls xxx 8/12/2015 1 Comment essential boudoir lightingThe third presentation in the series of talks by Chantal at the Photo & Film Expo was 'Essentials of Boudoir Lighting'. Foxy Miss Roxy is so awesome to work with, so we asked her to be our model again. This gorgeous young lady is extremely versatile, and this time she chose a sexy black steampunk feel outfit that suits her personal style. Our super talented Makeup by Monique did the most beautiful smokey eye for Roxy and finished up her look with a gorgeous hairstyle, which perfectly complimented Roxy's outfit choice. Roxy's final look prompted us to do something a bit different from normal ... and we decided to create a simple but really beautiful set from a pop up backdrop, a red chair and some dark coloured organza. As our demonstration was about using the Photon Continuous lighting, we created the whole look on stage, and showed how to add different lights to change the feel of the photo. Our aim was to illustrate the simplicity and softness of continuous lighting, and we demonstrated some easy tips & tricks to achieving great looking images, and this was really well received by our wonderful audience. Here is a peak at the gorgeous Roxy, who is always willing to work with us & is just fabulous in every way. The ladies at femme fatale boudoir would like to thank everyone who attended the talks, and especially a big thank you to our fabulous sponsors: Photon Lighting and Vanguard Camera Bags & Tripods for the opportunity to not only represent them, but also for allowing us to demonstrate how to use their wonderful products on stage at the Photo & Film Expo.

In this demonstration, Foxy Miss Roxy was our stunning model again, and opted for a gorgeous sultry red outfit. Her sexy makeup and hair styling was done by our super talented Makeup by Monique, which perfectly complimented Roxy's outfit choice.
