PART TWO: TOP TIPS FOR A BOUDOIR BRIDE PHOTOSHOOT ✨
with pro photographer Alexandra.
➡️ This tip is a game changer:
✨ DRY BODY BRUSHING
As soon as your shoot is booked, start giving your skin some love:
• Use a dry body brush before showering
• Work in circular motions (think: toes, ankles, knees, elbows don’t skip these!)
• Then shower or bathe
• Finish with a rich moisturiser or body oil
Why this works:
💫 Smooths and polishes your skin
💫 Boosts circulation + lymphatic drainage
💫 Helps you reconnect with your body (confidence starts here)
💫 Leaves your skin feeling incredible
This isn’t just prep, it’s part of your self-love ritual before your shoot.
And the best part? Body brushes are super affordable, grab one and start today.

John Vince-
“This is a photograph of me in the 60s, having just got started in photography. This was my first sort of professional camera, if you like. When I came out of the Air Force, when I was about 22 or something, I bought this Pentax. It was my special camera.”
“It was quite expensive for me at the time, as I didn’t have much money. I think it was about £20 or something like that — a long time ago. But it was a great camera.”
“It’s a Pentax S1a camera, which was quite good in its day!”
“Photography back then involved working in a darkroom. I started as a darkroom assistant — that was a long time ago, when I was about 16 years old.”
“That was in London’s West End, Argyle Street, two doors away from the Palladium.”
“I’m John Vince, and I’m a professional photographer.”

Here is part one of my top tips on how to get the best out of your boudoir bride photoshoot. 💍
Today I am talking about underwear. 👙
Bring two to three sets of lingerie to your boudoir bride photoshoot.
A black set. 🖤
A wedding themed set. This could be ivory or white. 🤍
Bring something you think your partner would love to see you in. 💌
Bring different knicker cuts.
A Brazilian gives shape while still showing curves.
A high waisted cut adds a vintage and flattering silhouette.
A brief offers more coverage with a soft and elegant feel.
A high leg cut elongates your legs instantly.
Different cuts work for different poses and angles. 📸
Switching styles gives you more variety in your final gallery.
Different cuts and shapes work well for different types of shots. 📸
My boudoir photography is quite rule breaking so I cannot show exact examples here.
You can see examples of my work on my website.
I’ll help you create a wedding gift that only you can give. 🎁

UK Wedding Gift, The Polaroid Trend. 🔥 LOVE IT. ⭐️🥂
Everything you’re asking me in one place! 😘
Where is your studio located?
My private studio is near Marlow, west of London. There is easy parking right outside. The space is a beautiful boutique chapel.
Is it private?
Yes. I only photograph one bride per day.When you are in the studio it is just you and me. No other clients. No interruptions.
Is it worth travelling for?
Yes. Completely. I’m the original boudoir photographer and I love helping you feel & look stunning! My lighting, posing and direction are unlike anything else. I guide you every step of the way and create artistic, sexy portraits while helping you see your body differently. This is a confidence experience not just a photoshoot.
What should I bring to wear?
Bring three to four lingerie sets. This can include wedding lingerie or honeymoon pieces. Bring heels or wedding shoes, jewellery and accessories like a garter or veil. I also have veils at the studio you can borrow. Many brides also bring something that belongs to their partner like a shirt or jacket which we style in a subtle and intimate way.
Can I buy this as a voucher?
Yes. This is a gift voucher offer. You can buy now and book your shoot for later this year or next year.
When should I book my shoot?
Ideally around two months before your wedding. Last minute brides message me as rush options may be available.
HURRY!!!
Comment BRIDE and I will send you the details.

You need to feel body confident NOW! 💃 I believe that body confidence is at the core of everything we do.
Some people say “my body doesn’t matter.” But I believe that’s wrong. 🚨
It’s your life vehicle. 🚗
If you don’t respect or love it, it can impact everything…
• Relationships ❤️
• Work 💼
• Parenting 👩👧
If you have kids, your children are always watching. 👀
The faces you pull in the mirror
The comments you make about photos…
It matters more than you think. 💭
One powerful way to shift this is stepping out of your comfort zone. 🚀
Do something that helps you see your body through a new lens .🔍
A lens of love. ❤️
In my studio at FOR YOUR EYES ONLY PORTRAITS, I guide you through yoga-inspired poses with a stylish twist! 🧘♀️✨
It’s fun 😄 and physical. 💪
You’ll see your body differently.👀
You’ll feel empowered. 🔥
• Lifting
• Twisting
• Arching
These movements send signals to your brain. 🧠
“I’m strong 💪”
“I’m feminine 🌸”
“I’m sexy 🔥”
And it works ✔️
I’ve been doing this for over 20 years.
⏳
Helping women transform how they see themselves. 💖
It creates lasting change.

❌ It pisses me off seeing unethical boudoir photographers do this… getting their clients or model to lay on the floor with little or no clothes on.
❌ It pisses me off seeing unethical boudoir photographers do this… getting their clients or model to lay on the floor with little or no clothes on. It’s just disrespectful.
That’s why I designed the boudoir posing platform. It sits higher off the ground and is exactly the right shape and look for elegant artistic tasteful boudoir portraits.
A lot of women come to me feeling nervous about boudoir because they’ve seen images that look uncomfortable… awkward… or just not like them.
And I get it.
Because behind the scenes, many of those shoots involve being placed on the floor, unsure how to pose, feeling exposed, and just hoping it turns out okay.
That’s not how it should feel.
When you work with me, you’re not expected to “perform” or figure it out on your own.
I’ll guide you through everything in a way that feels natural, comfortable, and fun! Actually it’s a bit like yoga- meets twister!
No guessing what to do with your body.
Instead, I focus on creating an experience where you feel confident, supported, and in control because that’s when the real magic happens.
You deserve more than just nice photos.
You deserve to feel incredible while they’re being taken.
And trust me… you will.
I’ll look after you I promise. I won’t put you on the floor.
I’ll raise you up. Where you belong.
