Let me start by saying my FH is super conservative. I am a plus sized bride and have never dressed very flashy or sexy but wanted to do a boudoir shoot for him. I mentioned that my cousin was thinking of doing one (she was married a month ago) and he was very against it for that fact that someone, even another woman would be seeing me and taking photos of me half naked or even fully naked. I kind of knew that would be his reaction so I dropped it. We recently went on a trip together, the first part was a business trip for him and the last part was a funeral. While he was away at work, I did my own shoot. I snuck props and sexy outfits, lingerie etc in my suitcase and went for it. OMG! I took over 200 pictures and narrowed it down to 95 lol. I found a old portfolio at Goodwill, recovered it and made him an album that I will gift to him on our honeymoon.
Has anyone else done a DIY boudoir session? How did it come out and how did your FH react to it?
Here are my progress photos of the album...
