Who's this Gift really for?

If you are considering a Boudoir Session as a Gift 🎁 for your significant other for their birthday, your anniversary, as a wedding gift or for any occasion, I have no doubt they will love the beauty and surprise of seeing you in the images from your session.  However, no matter how much they love their gift, the amount of time they can look at and enjoy those images is limited.  On the other hand, you will have The Experience with you at all times, you have the ability to recall your session and remember how it made you feel about yourself.  

So, Who is the Gift really for?

I hope that you will decide to treat yourself to this wonderful experience soon.  When you are ready, please contact me and I'll help you to prepare, so that we can create something amazing for you.

I've noticed that pronouncing "Boudoir" can be a bit confusing, so this should help with that...

Why would you want to take pictures in your underwear?

Being a boudoir photographer in Miami, I get the way a lot of people see this style of photography, as just pictures of women in lingerie and eventhough the results are beautiful and exhilarating, I understand how a boudoir session can be a bit intimidating. Truth is it can be easy to misunderstand the benefits of Boudoir without experiencing it for yourself.  Here are the words of someone who has experienced a session with me:

 -  I had a great experience shooting my boudoir photos. I had the chance to see the images of the pictures that were taken, and I couldn't believe my eyes of how beautiful they came out.  Almost couldn't believe it was me.  I would definitely encourage other women to have their boudoir images taken of themselves.  At first I was a little hesitant of what others might say, but then  I realized the reason why I wanted to take those photos to begin with.  I wanted to take those boudoir images solely for me to have. Time is something that not only doesn't stop for no one, but it surely doesn't wait for no one to pass you by neither.  I wanted to have a memory of the best stages of my life that I could look back at once I grow older.

 I think every women should have that.

I realize that there are many things happening in your day to day life, however, I hope that you will make or take the time to do something wonderful for yourself.

Intro...

Let me begin with, Thank you for your time.   As this is my first entry, I'd like to introduce myself, give a little background and explain why I shoot boudoir.

My name is John Miller.  I was born in Detroit, where my passion for photography began.

I've been a member of the Army Reserves, the Army National Guard and the USMC, 9 years total service.

I worked at Chrysler for 6 years. Before moving to Miami in 2000.

I've shot many different subjects, looking for ways to service the needs of whomever needed photos and for whatever reason.  This was ok most of the time because I love taking pictures, I now have just a couple of areas that I focus on exclusively.  This is one.

I love Boudoir Photography because it helps improve the self-esteem and confidence of women while producing some beautiful images.  

In future posts I will provide tips and links to more information on preparation for and benefits of a Boudoir Session.
