What exactly is a boudoir shoot – explained
Boudoir photography is a genre of photography that focuses on capturing intimate and sensual images of women, mostly in stunning sleep- and underwear. It is a celebration of femininity, beauty, and sensuality. Boudoir photography sessions usually take place in a studio or a hotel room, with the focus being on the woman and her bodym the stunning female form. The Loci Photography boudoir shoot is done at the Loci studio in Centurion – the area is accessible for all Pretoria East clients, the greater Pretoria, Midrand, the lovely Johannesburg, as well as the great people from the East Rand, as it’s close to both the N1 and the R21 highway exists.
Boudoir photography has become increasingly popular in recent years, as women seek to embrace their sexuality and feel more confident and empowered in their bodies. The shoots are usually done in a comfortable and relaxed environment, with a professional photographer who is skilled at creating a comfortable and safe space for the woman. Boudoir is for everyone – regardless of age, body size or even margin of shyness of assertiveness.
The purpose of a boudoir photography session is to capture the woman’s beauty and sensuality in a way that is tasteful and elegant. The images are often used as a gift for a partner or as a way to boost the woman’s self-esteem and confidence. Boudoir photography is about celebrating the woman’s body and showing her that she is beautiful and desirable.
During a boudoir photography session, the woman is typically dressed in beautiful lingerie or other sexy clothing. The photographer will work with her to create poses that are flattering and showcase her best features, hence why especially the Loci photography experience, is an incredible product to receive. The goal is to create images that are sensual and alluring, while still being tasteful and classy.

I can also be contacted on the following number: 0823337310
You will be contacted back swiftly, and we’ll chat about your needs, such as when would you like to shoot, is your shoot perhaps a gift for someone, and what to bring with.
If you choose to have hair- and makeup done for your shoot, which comes highly recommended, then I arrange with my trusted artists whom I’ve worked with for years, on their availability.
We then chat on what you need to bring with and if perhaps you need to get anything else additionally.
We arrange all dates according to everyone’s schedule, and I send you directions to the Loci Photography studio, in Pierre van Ryneveld Park, Pretoria.
We meet you at the gate on the date of your shoot, pack out what you brought, see what we’ll start with, and then your hair- and makeup starts.
From there we shoot until your outfit choices are completed. We also use the lovely Nicolassi range as part of your styling.
Your images take about 14-21 working days for completion, unless otherwise arranged. I need this precious time to transform your raw images, into art. Loci Photography is known for the care it puts into its shoots and the end-product, and every client is treated like royalty. The time taken to process images isn’t just for the sake of it, it is used skilfully to make the product you’ll keep for a long time, and remember fondly, as well as look back on, proudly. Also, images are part of a closed system, it doesn’t get shared, or is shared with anyone else.
Any books or additional products, can be ordered through the studio, and after sign-off from the client on the design it is sent to print where it is handled by a female printer only, as is my arrangement with my printing company.
After any shoot with a satisfied client, I kindly ask for a review to be left, hence Loci photography’s amazing reviews – a precious asset to the studio.
Any photos that get permission are shared on social media platforms like Pinterest, but no images get shared if the clients isn’t comfortable with the idea.
Boudoir photography is not just about taking pictures, it’s about the experience – this should be something the woman in front of my lens remembers fondly. Many women report feeling more confident and empowered after a boudoir shoot. The experience of being pampered and having professional photos taken can be a transformative experience for many women.
The Loci Photography boudoir shoots adds an additional layer of luxury whereby it has an in-house styling range hosting various coats, jackets and other accessories such as gloves, hats and jewelry – proudly called The Nicolassi Brand – see the collection here.

The idea behind the range’s creation was for any tentative client to feel less exposed and more that they were covered in a strong-shaped layer of confidence. The Nicolassi Brand also proudly displays on gorgeous Pinterest boards as well – have a look…:)
In conclusion, boudoir photography is a celebration of femininity and sensuality. It is a way for women to feel confident and empowered in their bodies and to celebrate their beauty.
