56. Boudoir Photography (aka: Click, click, boom!)

In this episode, Ams and Kat explore Boudoir Photography.  Boudoir photography is a style of intimate photography that captures individuals in a tasteful and empowering way, often in lingerie or semi-clothed, celebrating their unique beauty and sensuality. Boudoir photography can be a powerful tool for promoting self-love, body positivity, and empowerment. It challenges beauty standards and encourages women to embrace their uniqueness.  But first, if you are looking for a little buzz without the drawbacks of alcohol, why don't try this Canna-cocktail, the Pumpkin Spice (or, if you are looking for a little extra spice, add Bourbon).  Mix one up while listening to this episode's hot tale: Ams never thought she would play on a show bed, but at a recent house party, she decides to hop on with a playful partner and a sexy voyeur. Never say never! Next, the Wives describe their past experiences with boudoir photography, including professional pictures taken at Desire, plus some DIY photo shoots at home. To get an expert's opinion, the Wives talk with photographer Nicole Marie, owner of Nicole Marie Boudoir.  Finally, the Wives decide to book in for a boudoir photo session as their sexy homework. Nicole Marie is a boudoir and portrait photographer located in Easton, Maryland. She is a lifelong hobbyist photographer, professional photographer for 15 years and boudoir specialist for 9 years. Her passion is providing a luxury experience and empowering imagery for women from all walks of life.
