Finally! I've found the time to finish post processing the images taken during the Yerbury Boudoir workshop I went to a couple of weeks ago...
I'm so glad I decided to take tuition from the Yerburys!! :) Faye and Trevor are UK leaders in fine art and nude photography and their boudoir work exudes the class and quality that is distinctive of their work. More than that, they are excellent tutors, giving you the time to ask questions and lots of opportunity to shoot. As I suspected, and with most true greats, you get a straight forward and honest opinion from them, and they have none of the airs that some people adopt in pursuit of some assumed status in the complicated and often bitchy world of photography.
I really enjoyed my day's tuition with both Faye and Trevor, worth every penny in practice and sound marketing advice, which I thoroughly recommend if you are a photographer working towards improving your style of work, and avoiding the pitfalls into which many fall and lead them to create work that is more thrash than style.
Coming back to my boudoir workshop day, it just made me realise how possible it is to make a woman look great without complicated studio setups and, by using the relaxed environment of her own home, clever use of posing and available light, create a series of images that will be cherished, looked at fondly after time, and particularly, a great wedding gift from the bride to her groom.
Our model for the day, Aisha, was exceptionally patient as we went through standard poses and experimented with some ideas of our own. From the lounge, through the bedroom and bathroom, we used the environment available to us to the maximum, using the soft light and reflectors to get the most out of Aisha's lovely looks.
I now leave you to my own post-processed set from the day and as usual hope you like the work. I am now taking bookings for boudoir sessions - please give me a call or email me if you would like an album of personal images to treasure.
