Boudoir photography is a style of intimate and sensual photography that focuses on capturing the subject in a personal or private setting, often dressed in lingerie or sleepwear, with an emphasis on elegance, confidence, and sensuality. The aim is to highlight the subject's beauty and self-assurance, often through soft lighting and relaxed, intimate atmospheres. Typically used as a personal gift or a way to celebrate one's own body image, boudoir photography can range from subtle, tasteful shots to more daring images, depending on the subject's preferences, and is often taken in private spaces like bedrooms or specialized studios.
