An impromptu Retro, Glamour, Pinup Shoot In The Studio


This is my old blog please visit the new website at www.robinowenphotography.com You won't be disappointed! 


A recent impromptu pin-up style photo shoot with my daughter, Summer, produced some really cute and flirty, retro, glamour, photos we both loved. She was in the photography studio trying on props and they looked so cute I just had to get the camera out. Summer was in Key West all last week hanging out on the beach and relaxing while on a well deserved vacation from college and work. Key West is a long way from the crowded streets of Manhattan where she attends school. I know she hated to come back.

Erotic, sensual, intimate, glamour portraits, it's all boudoir!



It has come to my attention that many people don't know what Boudoir photography is. They may know what type of photos they want but they are not sure what key words they should search when they are looking for a photographer on the internet. I don't know who the first photographer was that started calling it boudoir but the name has stuck and it is catching on. The hope is that soon everyone will know the term. Boudoir encompasses many different types of photography including couples and men not just women. It can also include erotic fantasy types of shoots. Got handcuffs? Don't be afraid to bring um to the shoot! LOL it all depends on what you and your photographer are comfortable with. Don't be afraid to ask if you want something a bit out of the ordinary! Often the photographer will see it as a chance to do something different and get artistic with it. Feel free to spread the word about this beautiful forum of photography, go ahead and post about it on your blog, facebook page or twitter. Photographers are trying to get the word out about what boudoir is, we can use all the help we can get! Remember a good place to search for boudoir photographers in your area is to check out www.boudoirphotographynetwork.com there you will find some of the best boudoir photographers in the country listed by state.

Wedding day timeline....

I found that brides don't always allow enough time for wedding photos on their wedding day. Many times they will underestimate the time it takes to create some of the more artistic photos they envision. Often they set aside an adequate amount of time for photos but underestimate how long it takes to get from the church to the reception. When you attempt to round up a wedding party and get them all into the limo, it never fails someone is missing. There are a million other little things that can eat up 15 or 20 minutes before you know it. That time has to be made up someplace and often it comes off the photography time. As a photographer there is not much we can do about it, except make you aware that unless you give us the time, we can't do our job properly. So please, go over your time line with your photographer. Always allow more time than you think it is going to take to get from point A to point B. Throw in 10 or 15 minutes here and there throughout the day to cover delays. If you don't need them, great you are ahead of schedule!
