Explaining the boudoir shoot – why we shoot, and how it works
Boudoir photography has gained popularity in recent years as women increasingly seek to capture their sensuality, beauty, and strength through visual imagery. It is a type of photography that is dedicated to capturing the subject’s inner beauty, self-confidence, and power in a sensual and intimate way.
A boudoir shoot is a stunning and empowering experience for women who want to feel confident and strong through photography. It is an opportunity for women to embrace their body and celebrate their unique beauty. A skilled photographer can create a safe and comfortable environment where women can express themselves freely and feel empowered. The Loci Photography boudoir shoot experience makes for something memorable, an unforgettable moment that we capture visually for an extraordinary product.
The shoot typically involves lingerie and underwear, which can make women feel exposed and vulnerable. However, Loci Photography’s expertise and skill in creating a relaxed and non-judgmental atmosphere helps women feel comfortable and confident, allowing them to explore their sensuality and express themselves freely. The studio offers another layer of luxury, giving clients the option to use the studio’s in-house styling- and accessory range. Incredible handmade jackets, coats and other add-ons such as hats, gloves and jewelry, makes for images with different shapes and an added unique feel.
A boudoir shoot is not only about capturing stunning images but also about building self-confidence and assertiveness. It is about showing women that they are strong and beautiful and that they should be proud of who they are – the Loci boudoir experience is for everyone and anyone, from all walks of life. The final product is a collection of stunning images that women can keep forever as a reminder of their strength and beauty.

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.
