When You're Not so Good with Words, Give Pictures

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 19:43:00 +0000

Best way to tell someone that you love them (or just want them) is to show it!

Do that in a way that skips the usual "make you dinner at my place" plan.

Sexy photos not only help you break out of your rut should you happen to be in one, capture your beauty but also say to your lover, "hey you, come and get it!"

Ask us what we can do for a creative, sexy gift for your husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend or special someone (we don't need no stinking labels!). Gifts can be terribly sensual...let's just say some gifts can't be described here!

Call for Christmas gift order deadlines.

Tattoo: Proud or Past Due

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 14:57:00 +0000

Body art can be highlighted or hidden in a photo shoot.

Whether you are a noobie that just got your first tiny tattoo or you are a lifelong addict, perhaps you just want a picture that is a "clean slate." Don't worry about body make-up, we can remove tattoos or scaring in retouching as part of our digital body lift. No blurring or fuzzing out required. You love your tattoo, but would like one or two pictures without it. Maybe you don't want to be recognized. Maybe you are going to get it removed one day. Maybe you would like to do an alter ego shoot with your straight-laced self and free-wheeling self facing off.

Proud to be decorated? Show it off! Much like in the photo shoots on the TLC show "LA Ink" featuring Kat Von D, we often take images of brand new tattoos while they are fresh and crisp. You want to show off this new piece of you and the photo shoot is the perfect way to enhance the artwork and have a keepsake of this point in time. Also, makes an incredibly special gift for a loved one that is long distance - whether in the military or living in another state (or country!) - they will love the intimate way your tattoo is captured. It will make them feel that much closer to you.

Remember, what you show in a photo session is always up to you!

Thigh's the Limit

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 16:05:00 +0000

Thigh highs, sometimes called stockings, are always a dilemma. Many women think they look incredibly sexy... just not on them. That's right and wrong! Thigh highs are the epitome of sexy and va-va voom! Bring them! It is a great way to take any lingerie to the next level, even if your significant other has seen it 1,000 times.

Selecting Stockings
It is very important to get a good quality pair of thigh highs. Even though you might just be getting it for one look or for the entire photo session, you want to make sure they are flattering and the correct style.

There are several varieties of thigh highs. Some come with a "self-stick" top that makes them stay up on their own. Some are smooth and flat, designed to be worn with a garter belt. Sometimes you can even find a Cuban heel or line up the back like World War II pin-ups (see Fredrick's of Hollywood for a nice selection). Make sure you have the right style for your outfit. It is hard, though not impossible, to force the garter belt over the self-stick part.

Above all, consider size. Most women are worried that they will look like a stuffed sausage in thigh highs. While your imagination is almost always worse than what you really look like (and the digital body lift is a plus!) getting the right size and style will help you feel confident when you step in front of the camera.

Why are "Regular" Women Still Afraid of Shooting Nudes?

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 04:23:00 +0000

Check out the May 2010 Allure Magazine. Chances are you might have seen the magazine at the local nail salon or while waiting to check out at the grocery store. The cover featured the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones, looking over her shoulder at the camera, and the headline "Catherine Zeta-Jones Gets Entirely and Completely Naked (No, Seriously, Not a Stitch!)".

If she can do it, what's stopping you? "Ok," you think, "Let me start with she has a professional make-up artist, stylist, professional lighting, hair styling, a professional photographer not to mention airbrushing!" Check, check, check. It is easy to think that these types of celebrity perks are out of reach for the "ordinary" woman. So you have kids, don't jet from gala to gala and hell sometimes you just eat ice cream for dinner. You can still do a boudoir photo session like Ms. Zeta-Jones and be every bit as sexy and classy.

We have done the heavy lifting for you, so to speak. Experience with hundreds of women and talented staff backed by days on TV and movie sets, combine to support your beautiful nude photo session. All the things you may consider when looking at a copy of the Allure magazine (lighting, make-up, retouching, the right angles) are included in your photo session.

If you have thought "What would I look like if I had all those tools available to me?" Seize the moment! Nude does not have to be anything but upscale and completely discreet. Red Chair Photographer offers a slew of what makes a nude shoot not only comfortable, but classic. We understand that all women have an insecurity or another, and that the choice is confidence. Or to fake it till you make it. Nude photography can invoke all the classic images of Greek goddesses. Beautiful, voluptuous and cherishing the female form.

We can't give you Michael Douglas, but the rest is under control.

It's the Perfect Time to Plan Your Presents

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 02:32:00 +0000

Schedule your session now to avoid the holiday rush and potential rush processing charges!

Gift Ideas

2011 Calendar
Staring you! Grace every month of the 11"x14" calendar with an image of sexy you. Different looks for each month, or a theme throughout. We will help you design the perfect sets.
Boudoir Album
This ain't your wedding album or Shutterfly book. Custom designed, retouched and glossy finished, this book lays flat for those jaw dropping centerfolds to really make a great impression. All packages come with complimentary images to get you started.
Ten 8"x10" Prints
Since you are a 10, that is the perfect number of prints to give to your significant other. The retouched prints come gift boxed and ready to give or wrap.
Couples Shoot
Bring him or her along. Make it a date night. Create the smoldering images together. Even if you feel silly at first, you will definitely feel sexy as the shoot progresses. Naughty or nice ideas welcome!
Gift Certificate
Like a spa gift certificate for her sexy side. Remind her she is beyond beautiful and gets your home fires burning.

Tipping Etiquette

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 01:40:00 +0000

Many clients ask us if they should tip and if so what is customary. As with other service industries, if you felt that the staff went above and beyond to make you comfortable then tipping is graciously accepted. Tips are by no means a required part of the session fee, however, they are always appreciated.

Commonly, tips are $10 and upwards for each staff person, depending on your session length and the intricacy of the shoot. You may choose to add a tip to your credit card payment or to leave in cash at the end of your session.

On Site Professional Make-Up Artistry

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 14:43:00 +0000

Have you ever had your make-up done before? I mean really done by an artist, someone that can bring out your features and make educated suggestions? Maybe at the cosmetics counter in the mall? What about for a wedding? What about just for you?

Just for you (and maybe the private eyes of someone special!) make-up is what our professional artists do for your photo session. The "looks" can be a natural extension of your daytime look or something completely out of left field. Maybe you never wear make-up and the artist precisely applies gorgeous, thick false lashes and creates a smokey, seductive eye. Maybe you want to try an old Hollywood look. Maybe you want to be surprised! We will create a look just for you and ensure that you are happy and feel totally beautiful.

Artistry not only includes professional make-up application but also hair styling. We can flat iron your hair into a shiny sheath or give that just-rolled-around-in-bed look. Again, up to you! Your session happens with you - we involve you in every detail but only provide a professional opinion. Real hair, extensions, wigs, bring it on.

Make-up artists and hair stylists on staff are licensed. This means that they are trained and pay special attention to cleanliness and hygiene. Beauty tools not only bring out the best in you but also bring germs. It is critical to have a professional trained in the correct disinfection processes. We are proud to work with professionals only! Our artists also bring extensive expertise to the table including HDTV, movies, magazines, reality TV shows and catalogs.

Consider it a spa day for your face. Each light touch of the brush relaxes you and brings your inner confidence outside more and more. Before you know it, you are a starlet ready for the camera!

Keep it Classy: Artwork for your Home

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 12:41:00 +0000

OK, so you want to do a photo session but you want it to be more than an album tucked under the mattress. You want it to be sensual, classy and very upscale. Come to think of it, you need something new to hang on the wall. The poster you bought is no longer your taste. You love the shadowy art that features the female form, black and white photography that is the opposite of a men's magazine. Kill two birds with one stone! Instead of searching online for someone else's picture, make your own - legs, feet, the curve of the back, whatever suits your taste or the feature that you love the best. And believe us, you do not have to be a supermodel! Just a little adventurous. We can pose you in such a way that you can or cannot be identified, its your choice.

Do you love the look of Calvin Klein ads? What about the photos that Posh and Becks took together? So sexy! Yet maybe you don't want your mom or kids friends seeing your naked butt? Don't worry, they won't know!

Great idea for the bedroom, bathroom or hallway. Think Venus de Milo, classic Roman reliefs and paintings of women reclining on sofas. We take that same beauty, grace and strength of a woman's body and create a genuine piece of classic art. While many people opt for black and white, rich, saturated colors also make a statement. We can make it as unique as you.

Thank You to the Troops

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 04:07:00 +0000

It does not get said enough - thank you to all the men and women serving in the United States armed forces. Your dedication is much appreciated!

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 04:20:00 +0000

Best Thing About Working at Glamour Photography Studio

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 18:05:00 +0000

It's not what you think!

Sure, lots of beautiful women of all shapes and sizes come through the studio. But first and foremost it is a joy to help build someone's confidence. A session here is more about sensuality and self-confidence than anything else. A woman may decide to bring her significant other, be nude or wear clothes for every shot - it doesn't matter because we make her look hot regardless. Whether a woman walks in wanting to strut her stuff, a total exhibitionist, or is rather nervous, it is an amazing transformation to see the person blossom in front of the camera. That is the best thing about working here.

Choosing an Erotic Photographer

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 15:02:00 +0000

Why Choose a Professional Photographer for Erotic Photography?
Anyone that has tried to do their own kitchen remodeling knows one thing is certain - you must have the right "tools" - people that have the skills and experience for the job in order to achieve results that yourself and others admire.

If your friend, cousin, or wedding specialist knows their way around a camera you may figure, "Why not?" Unfortunately, you are setting yourself up for disappointment by starting with the wrong tools.

It takes skill, creativity and experience in order to provide the lighting, coaching and posing to make you look your best especially when you are in less!

What is Included in an Erotic Photography Photo Shoot?
Having worked with hundreds of women of all shapes, sizes and walks of life, we know which seductive poses look best. Our photographer not only specializes in a sexy, steamy final product for you to give or get but also provides a fantastic experience during your session. This is your time to play or be spoiled.

Red Chair Photography considers boudoir photography a passion! We stay up to date on techniques, trends, equipment and digital retouching. Your session not only includes the studio time but also our proven expertise, know how and professionalism.

Even better, you are welcome to experiment and explore your sensual side right in front of the camera. You don't need an excuse to book your photo session, there are plenty of special occasions to consider for sexy photos.

Mother's Day Gift

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 19:53:00 +0000

So Mother's Day is 8 days away. Do you have a gift? Skip the over-crowded restaurants and over priced flowers. Consider booking her a session at Red Chair Photography! Don't want to guess? Get a gift certificate! All gift certificates come beautifully boxed so you literally just have to hand it to her!

Celebrating the Miracle of Womanhood
Recently, on Drex in the Morning on 103.5 KISS FM, a caller discussed how the best thing that she did after having a baby was to do a boudoir photo shoot. The photo shoot let her reclaim her body as more than a mom but as a truly sexy woman who is capable of miracles. This applies to all women - whether you they are mom to kids, pets or just take care of themselves.

Sexy Doesn't Always Mean Nude
If you have concerns that your loved one would be too shy to take nude photos, don't worry, just because it is sexy doesn't mean it is naked! We can suggest tons of style and ideas to help her feel special and beautiful. This is a way for women in your life to feel that they are wanted, desired and gorgeous inside and out. Not to mention the confidence boost that you want her to feel sexy and happy!

What about Stretch Marks and Cellulite?

Alter Ego Photo Shoot

noreply@blogger.com (Red Chair Photography) — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 15:55:00 +0000

Beyonce and "Real Housewives of Atlanta" brought attention to a facet of photography many people might overlook - showcasing your alter ego.

What is an Alter Ego?
Your alter ego is another side of your personality, a secret side to yourself that you only let shine once in a while and may keep behind closed doors. Think about the old phrase "a lady in the street and a freak in the bedroom." Your alter ego is a character you play for just a little bit. Your alter ego does all the things you want to do, but don't.

Your Alter Ego In the Studio
Our professional hair and make-up artist and staff can help your fantasy come to life in front of the camera. We will consult with you before your session to learn about your activities and interests. From that, we can suggest sexy scenarios to make your new personality, or fantasy, come to life. From wardrobe suggestions, to props, to make-up with loads of lashes and help with poses, we will guide your session to make it the best it can be.

Famous Alter Egos
•    Beyonce / Sasha Fierce
•    Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde
•    Clark Kent / Superman
•    Peter Parker / Spiderman

What's Your Fantasy?
Let us know! Make it a date, make it a girls night, make it a short road trip from Indiana, Wisconsin or Michigan! Don't let the wives in Atlanta have all the fun - let's show 'em what you got, Chicago!
