What is Boudoir Photography?
Boudoir photography is a specialized genre that focuses on capturing intimate, romantic, and sometimes sensual images of individuals. The essence of boudoir photography lies in portraying the subject in a more private and personal setting, often including bedrooms, hotel rooms, or studios designed to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The images produced in boudoir photography sessions are typically intended for the private enjoyment of the subject or to be shared with a romantic partner.

The ever classic film Carrie is the inspiration behind this photoshoot. Who doesn’t remember the heart wrenching scene where Carrie is brought up on stage to win the prom queen to be drenched in a bucket of pigs blood? Of course chaos ensues shortly after, but I do love a good blood bath if you will.
Miss Coral was the perfect sport behind my idea, allowing me to completely cover every inch of her skin in blood. It was definitely a photoshoot I’ll never forget.
