Well, as I mentioned in my last post, I'm going to try to create a 'niche' for myself in this area of photography. Being a woman, I think I'm well placed for 'boudoir' or 'how to look good naked' pictures of women. I know if I was going to do this type of session myself, I would only feel comfortable with a lady photographer.
The type of shot I am going for is 'artistic' as opposed to 'glamour' type images - in other words, not page three. I envisage probably most people going for low-key lighting, black and white or sepia and some post-production work on the image to help the picture along, in terms of smoothing skin, enhancing eyes and adding shine to hair. I know there's a lot of controversy around at the moment about air-brushing, but I believe with a bit of subtlety, you can still look a 'real' woman... but just better!
I'm including a picture in the post; this is the sort of thing I'm going for. I'm going to the Convention in London tomorrow and I'm going to a lecture on this type of photography so I'm hoping for some tips.
