Fun in a sauna

Another great week here at Orcatek.  One of my favorite shots I found while reviewing some of my boudoir photographs was this one taken in a sauna.  The sauna made for a great location to create a sexy and intimate photograph to create some interesting variety.

Shooting outside the studio with my boudoir clients can be a great deal of fun.  It presents a ton of opportunities to make the images very personal.

Now that the weather is going to cool down soon, I will be doing more work outdoors again.  Headshots and portraits often look great when shot outdoors.


Be a covergirl in tasteful boudoir.

When you go to your favorite newsstand today, check out the latest issue of College Gentleman Magazine.  I photographed the cover and the correspond photo shoot inside.   The magazine is all about tasteful sexy  boudoir photography.   When I had a pre-release copy out for lunch, several of the staff walked by and commented on how hot they found the cover.

I was selected to do this shoot because of my experience making woman look sexy and beautiful in intimate photographs.

I frequently hear “sure you can make a model look great, but I’m no model.”    The same tricks I use to make the girls in the magazines look perfect are what I use for my boudoir and glamour clients. My goal as your photographer is to make you look like you belong in a magazine.


Boudoir and Pin-up Photography

Fun week again working with some amazing people.   A few returning headshots clients.   Found out a future model and beauty queen I shot won most photogenic.   Glad I was able to help her learn a bit about how to work in front of the camera.

Of course I also shot some boudoir and pin-up photographs this week.

Pin-up photography is always fun.  The flirty and sexy images  are the beginnings of modern boudoir photography fantasies.   The great thing about pin-up, is it still is a great art that is making a comeback.


Glamour, Maternity and Headshots oh my

I just realized that it’s already July. Where has the time gone? I know my time has gone into creating some amazing photographs for my clients. One of the shoots I had some fun with was creating some glamour images for a young model name Lizzie.

She is just starting out as a model and wanted to try a few things out to see what styles of photography she liked.

Another future mom chose me has her photographer for her maternity photo book. She was 8 months along and looked great. Pregnancy so often can bring a special something to a woman that just needs to be captured in a photograph. She brought her husband to the shoot and we got some great couples shots for their book.

A few people came in for headshots for their business cards and websites. Clients like to see who they are dealing with. It provides a feeling of trust since.

Hopefully the heat will be gone soon, but I know it will be at least 6 more weeks. We did get a bit of rain this week which was nice.


Another National Magazine Cover

With the latest issue of College Gentleman Magazine on the news stands, I can share with you some of the images I shot for this issue.

As your photographer, when it comes to boudoir photography I want you to look like you just stepped out of a magazine. Every woman deserves to look like a classy centerfold at least once in her life. The same techniques that I use to create those super sexy magazine photos are what I use when I create your boudoir photographs. You will be absolutely beautiful.


Wanna play some Football?

Sure a lot of people are watching the world cup, but some of still like our football. Of course when you have players like this, we all know why.

So this will be one of the new themes for my boudoir photography clients. Of course I putting together other sports themes too. These make fun additions to boudoir calendars.

The week also had some fun headshot clients, a future super model updated her portfolio and some future moms had some maternity photography to capture the beauty of their pregnancy. Next week has some newborn photography, a nature photography class and I will be able to show some of my recent magazine tear sheets now that they have been printed.


Sometimes less is more for boudoir photography

I have always said that for boudoir photography to achieve its goal it needs to inspire the imagination. And that means keeping some things under wraps. If you show it all, then the imagination has nothing left to do and the photograph becomes less interesting.

We want the mind to think about is what is going to happen next. What we might have seen had something been moved just a bit more. It is the idea that we are sneaking a peek, or what we weren’t supposed to see that adds to the excitement of the image.

This photograph is a perfect example of a sexy boudoir image. The male mind thinks if the shirt had been pulled open a tad more or lifted up a bit I might have seen something that he wants to see. And that idea is why it works. Had we been “flashed” then the mystery would have been lost and the sexy surprise the photographer wanted you to think about would be lost.

Just think about the tease and when you come in for your boudoir photography session.


Windows and Boudoir

Whenever I do boudoir photography on location, I always hope for a big window in one of the rooms. The light coming through that window is so often just perfect for boudoir. Sure it may take a few tricks to get it to behave just right, but the end results are amazing.

For the studio I have just acquired a new prop that will be perfect for boudoir photography sessions. I will also be using it for pin-up and will give it a try with some maternity. What can I say, I love this new prop.

It took a very long time to find one I liked, but it’s finally here!


Pin-up, Fine Art Nudes and More!

Another very busy week here at Orcatek Photography! Shot several amazing women in boudoir and glamour photography sessions. There are going to be some very happy guys out there soon!

And of course there was more classic pin-up photography. This style is becoming very popular and is a lot of fun to shoot.

Of course there were some headshots for some future stars. Fun shoots as they are always so full of personality.

And I also did some fine art nude photography. These images are often requested by my clients as additions to their boudoir photography sessions.

Looking at next week’s schedule it should be another great week with lots of variety.


A week of Variety

Variety is the spice of life so the say and it sure helps keep the creative eye working in photography. I love it when I have to change up my thinking from one shoot to the next. This week, this lucky photographer shot maternity, headshots, boudoir, pin-up, products and even automotive.

Frequently I will have clients come in and wish to combine to photographic needs. Often I will have a boudoir client who also needs to have a headshot done. Boudoir is often also combined with modeling.

By combining a clients needs in to a single photography session, I can give my clients some great value.

Of course one of my favorite parts of my job is when a photographer is needed to shoot an amazing car like this Ferrari Testarossa. This car was on-site for a fashion photography class that was being held at my studio and I took a few minutes to grab photographs of this beauty.

Next week is already jammed packed with a great variety. I can’t wait to see what else is on the horizon.
