I love the atmosphere and connection created in this image. Boudoir is about seduction and sensuality and this image has both. The lighting works really well to create some drama and attitude and the black and white conversion is strong and has a metallic feel that reminds me of a Pirreli Calendar. Great image!

I really love the feel and tone of this image. The composition is good and has the feel of an old Hollywood Film. I felt the position of the models hands held this image back as they take over the image a bit too much. with the elbows pulled back and the arms not in good view it makes the hands appear out of proportion.

Boudoir photography is intimate and romantic, but always tasteful. "Less is more" is a great phrase to bear in mind, since mystery and suggestion are often far more erotic than the explicit. Sexuality and nudity can be features of boudoir photography, but are by no means the central focus, so get creative with new - and elegant - ways to present the human form.
