Lisa' s fun Boudoir and Pin-up session

Lisa's fab mom recently purchased a Boudoir Girls voucher as a gift to her daughter. As Lisa was booking in for her new fab tattoo (by Nancy L. Klein of Galway bay Tattoo) we decided to wait until it was done to do the session. Her favourite type shots were leaning toward the retro pin-up and some classy boudoir images. She applied her own makeup for the shoot and hair was done by the talented Laura Murphy . Four of her amazing family and friends (some also former clients you may recognise)  popped down to share in the fun and support her. We had a  great giggle shooting for the afternoon and had plenty of outfit changes to mix up the styles a bit.
We all have our favourites from the images and at least she will have them forever too! Well done girl you were amazing ! Here is a peek at some of the shots from the day.

Petra Jade Alt Model

Hi guys - way behind on updating my stuff as with most photogs we love to shoot but are slower to organize the rest! These are a few snippets from a shoot I did a while back with the amazing Petra Jade.  we did a Circus theme, Boudoir and gothic looks. We had such a blast and the looks suit Petra so well.
She was accompanied by her lovely beau Patrick Lennon ( Patrick Lennon photography check him out) who helped us with outfits and tea and was a pleasure to have around.
You will see Petra feature regularly on Chunk.ie and many alternative photo shoots around Ireland.
There is definitely more in the pipleline so stay tuned ..especially near Halloween our favourite dress up time of the year....
Check her out on facebook!
For any of you ladies wanting to go for a different style boudoir shoot send on your ideas and a set could be specially created for you!
(Any of these looks can be recreated for you at our studio)

Confetti Competition winner Photoshoot!

We are delighted to announce our 'Confetti' competition winner was Grainne Kennedy. Here you will see some snippets of her shoot including a 'before makeover' shot which gives a good indication of the different types of looks that can be achieved through makeup. Our amazing Makeup artist on the day was Theresa Danaher who gave our Grainne a soft look for her boudoir photos and a more vampy look for the hollywood glamour and halloween style photos. 

We started the morning with a cup of tea and consultation about which looks we would achieve though we had some idea prior to meeting so I could set up a 'scene' with props etc before she arrived. 

As it is near Halloween we decided to do some fun 'Pin-up style Witch' shots with a tongue- in- cheek feel.

Boudoir Girls are the first to bring this vintage pin-up style of photography to you and we offer a mobile service for groups who wish to pull off this look complete with candy coloured backdrops. Any theme can be achieved which is part of the fun and it is a more flirty alternative for ladies who do not have the confidence to do a lingerie Boudoir Shoot. It is very popular style with our Hen parties at the moment. 

 Despite Grainne never having met us before she was fantastic throughout the whole process even bringing with her some lingerie items and a shirt to complete the boudoir look. She was open to all ideas but 

being a mom herself she wanted to keep it tasteful but fun and that's just what we did. 

Many giggles, poses and outfit changes later we had plenty of amazing photographs. She did  not even have one 'blinking' one which was a feat in itself for someone who has never modeled before!

All in all a great day was had and I know she enjoyed herself which is the whole objective on these shoots - She now also has some beautiful photos to take home to her very happy husband! 

  Thanks to Confetti Magazine,  Theresa Danaher Makeup artist the lovely Grainne and also all who entered the competition. We will definitely run one again in the future!
For now we are taking bookings for that special Christmas gift - The boudoir book! We have 'Budget Books',  Delux versions and of course the cute little 'Brag books' are also available to show off your favourite killer images to your friends. Any of these books can also be done in Pin-up style instead of lingerie.  ;)

Motorcycle theme pin-up session

I got a call from  Ms 'A' recently who was looking to do something original and relevant for her 'biker' husband to be. She did not want the usual lingerie shots for her other half - no, it had to entail leather jackets and helmets to suit both their style and also give him  a giggle out of the whole thing!  Having some experience in this field I was super excited to set up a scene - I did think about dragging in the old chopper from the shed but decided it would be easier to photoshop a bike in instead. The garage pump is real however and so is the ratchet!! Ms 'A's friend who was treating her came along for the shoot and we managed to throw her in for a shot for good measure!
Makeup was done by the brilliant and talented Theresa Danaher.
Have to say I really enjoyed this fun session - I welcome any unusual ideas brides may have for their husbands to be. I am certain we can pull off any theme here!

Here are some snippets of the shoot:  Well done Ms 'A'!!!

Get yer motor runnin!

Don't tell my hubby just yet!
