Lingerie Guide 2019 OWN Boudoir Wardrobe shopping guide Hi there!! You don’t need us to tell you that wardrobe is one of the most important elements that can effect your boudoir session. Of course, there’s nothing quite like a white sheet (and we have plenty of those!), but for the other 2-4 outfits in your session we know that you might need some guidance! This guide was created to steer you toward stores that we know from experience carry wardrobe pieces that photograph well for boudoir. As you’ll see, we’ve arranged the guide by style/theme, and there will be some stores that you see over and over again. While this guide should give you a great idea of where to start with your boudoir shopping, it won’t substitute having us help you along the way. So, be sure to reach out with any questions, send us photos of pieces that you’re on the fence about, and ask us to compare options with you! Remember, don’t be afraid to pull ideas from every category/theme (or create a theme of your own). Mix your bohemian robe with your black- leather corset, or pair your body-chain underneath your corporate blazer. There are no rules, this guide is merely to show you WHERE to find the items you’re looking for. Happy Shopping!!!! TABLE OF CONTENTS I. Everyday Lingerie II. Classic Lingerie III. Kinky Lingerie IV.

(Who knew!!?) If buying from a department store like Nordstrom or Bloomingdales then they will likely have in-house tailoring. If buying from an online store or other vendor then we recommend taking it into a local tailor (most local dry-cleaners will also alter clothing). 3) When shopping online, buy 2-3 size options per piece. You don’t want to be on a time crunch and need a different size. This way you get to try on pieces in the privacy of your home and can return the ones that don’t fit (though you should be 100% certain about a store’s return policy before exploring this option). 4) Always buy hosiery in one-size larger than the sizing chart says. While this wouldn’t be ideal if you were wearing it for normal function, it IS ideal when wearing for photoshoots as it won’t cut into your legs in an unflattering way. 5) If you only like a piece from the front/side/back, then you DO NOT like the piece. We aren’t photographing your front/side/back of you so let’s find a piece that looks good everywhere and that you love from all angles! 6) Communication is key when it comes to having a successful boudoir shoot. If you’re really craving a creative look incorporating water/paint/feathers/glitter/ anything that isn’t traditional clothing or lingerie then talk to us about it. We can help you shop for the items that will make your vision come to life and make sure that our studio/location is set up and prepared to accommodate this particular look. Some creative looks take a bit more preparation and we don’t want to have to break your heart if we’re not prepared for a specific idea you have in mind! We truly hope this buying guide was helpful as you start your boudoir journey! Of course, this guide is helpful for anyone looking for where to buy specific wardrobe pieces (not just for boudoir sessions), so we won’t judge you for bookmarking it for forever. Are we missing a category or do you have a a question for us about boudoir wardrobe in general? Tell us your thoughts or ask us your questions! We are here to help you look your absolute best so that you have images you’re truly proud of.

  • Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: the Intersection of Fun & Seduction
    Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: The Intersection of Fun & Seduction A Guide for First Time Clients and Veteran Boudies Monumental Arts Professional Fine Art Photography Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: Introduction So you are thinking about a Boudoir & Fine Art photography session – how exciting! But what is a boudoir & Fine Art session? Sounds simple – it’s just a sexy portrait session, right? Yes, no, and maybe, all at once! Boudoir is a unique and intimate style of photography – and whether you're looking for a romantic, glamour, pin-up, or fantasy session, it takes a big step to jump right in. Boudoir photography is a broad genre of photography that involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses. It is distinct from erotic photography in its emphasis on the aesthetic qualities of the subject and the craftsmanship of the photographic process over the sexually stimulating nature of the image. So, whether you are a veteran in front of the camera or brand new to the role, there are some things you should know about Boudoir & Fine Art photography. Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions One of the top questions I’m asked regarding boudoir is “will these be online”? I have photographed over 300 boudoir sessions since I started in 2012 – most are completely private and are never seen online. In other words, if you don’t want your images shown on my website as examples, they never will be! I guarantee “Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions!” Boudoir & Fine Art Styles Boudoir: Boudoir, as mentioned above, typically involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses.

Following the reopening of stores in Europe, the USA, and China after the first wave of Covid-19 in the second quarter of 2020, the renewed lockdown in Europe since October 2020 has led to significant business losses, which will extend in all probability, into the second half of 2021. Nevertheless, we were able to generate sales of €68.0 million and therefore limit the decline in sales to €22.8 million (approx. 25%) compared to the same period of the previous

(“Urban”), Lorie A. Kerneckel, and Barbara Rozsas (collectively, Defendants) move for summary judgment on Paul Ngai (“Plaintiff” or “Ngai”) and Xiaoyan Ngai’s (together, “Plaintiffs”) claims for national origin and age discrimination, retaliation, and hostile work environment in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Pennsylvania Human Rights Act (PHRA), and the Philadelphia Fair Practices Ordinance (PFPO), aiding and abetting discrimination in violation of the PHRA and PFPO, whistleblower retaliation in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, violation of the Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Law (WPCL), and common law intentional infliction of emotional distress (IIED) and loss of consortium.1 In turn, Plaintiffs move for partial summary judgment with respect to Defendants’ affirmative defense that Ngai failed to mitigate damages. For the reasons that follow, Defendants’ motion will be granted in part and denied in part and Plaintiffs’ motion will be denied. 1 Plaintiff abandons his gender-based claims of discrimination, retaliation, and hostile work environment, common law wrongful discharge, and whistleblower retaliation under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in his summary judgment briefing. These claims will therefore be dismissed.
