Self boudoir shoot? Possible?

[mrshaleyberg]

Moving back to good ole Indiana! That's where I'm from. Just going home while my husband is gone.

It's also possible to climb a greased pole by yourself....but it's so much easier with a friend or two.

Dude...we could make jokes about that comment...the metaphor is, uh...a bit risque, you know???

ha ha ha! Sooo...You think my husband would like nudes of me climbing a greased poll???

I tried to do something like this over a year ago........it was very hard. If you are patient and have LOTS of time you might be able to get it done. But man, I should of just left my husband help me!! The focusing was rough. Good luck!!

Thank your husband for me, for his service!! I wish him well!!

Yes

 

[mrshaleyberg]

ah ha ha ha! Don't you think THAT would be a little hard? I mean...doing your own self portraits is hard enough, but adding a greased poll to the equation as well?? HMMMM

I was gonna say, if you were heading to Denver I'd volunteer since I have NO idea how to unawkwardly get into boudoir photography! I guess I'll stick with kids and couples for now...

Thanks to your husband for his service and thanks to you and your family as well for holding down the fort while he's gone!

Brett Favre has proven that self-boudoir photos are possible. Well, allegedly...I think all one needs are some Wrangler jeans, a cell phone with camera feature, and some half-decent lighting. Somebody out to write to Favre and ask him about the details...

It's certainly possible. You can set up some dummy objects to help you frame the shot, set focus (and DoF) and check lighting, then switch the camera over to manual focus and swap yourself in for the stand in objects. You can either use a cheap wireless remote (pose to hide the hand holding it or photoshop it out later), or if your camera allows you to set it to shoot repeatedly just do that then get in the frame (who cares how many you throw away when you're shooting digital). Really this is just a specific type of self portrait which folks do all the time.

(And kudos to the forum community for not immediately jumping in with the request to post the images after she takes them.)

Thats why we have the girls of TPF on flickr private password protected group. Silly boy.

Good luck, I had thought about trying this as well. Will compare notes when I do. If you have any tips you want to share feel free.

I've never had a male photographer. I don't know how comfortable I'd be. It'd have to be a female. And my husband would **** if he knew another man was taking nudes of me. ha ha

I have a tog friend who does artistic nudes and I talked it over with my husband because its something I REALLY want to do and he surprised me. He eventually came around. And he's a gun toting redneck kind of thump you on the head and drag you around by your hair kinda guy.

Which is ok, since I like that sort of thing. :lmao:
