The light in this is image is beautiful, it gently highlights the elegant shape of the models body, the position of the hand covers enough to allow the image to still feel subtle and seductive and not too obvious which is the true nature of boudoir photography. Well done, a standout image!
This image caught my eye as it was so close to being a stand out image. The lighting works well by highlighting the body but I feel a small movement of the model head to her left would have allowed just enough light to create some dimension to the models face whilst still allowing the feeling of being anonymous. At the moment, her face and hair disappear into the background a little too much. A great image with even more potential!

I was drawn to this image for a few reasons. The lighting is dramatic and highlights all the right parts of the body to be sexy yet also seductive. I would like to have seen a little more of the top of the head/hair which would balanced this image more, plus the red hair is stunning and could have been a more of a feature to counter the more monotone feel of this images which would have given it a top 10 place. I also really love the sense of movement the placement of the back hand create, great image!
Brief

Boudoir is an intimate style of photography that focuses more on the suggestive side of romance and eroticism, as opposed to being more explicitly sexual. Artistic composition is everything in these shots, and as a result the subject (female or male) is often empowered by the experience, rather than merely being an object of desire. Elegance, beauty and subtlety are key words for this brief.
