Boudoir Photography That Helps Women Find Their Fierce

February 7, 2016 by Seshu | Editor & Publisher

Based in Rochester, New York, Terri Fiske passionately believes she can help women find their fierce through a boudoir photography session.

She says: “Women are so busy being wives, mothers, teachers, business owners that they forget to celebrate that they are beautiful, powerful and sexy.”

While this won't be her first time at Inspire Photo Retreats, Teri is attending the conference this time as a speaker. Her topic, Finding Your Fierce.

A few days back, I sat down with Teri to find out what she means by “finding your fierce” in boudoir photography and why women are drawn to her services:

Teri is set to present her approach at Inspire Photo Retreats, starting tomorrow in Newport, Rhode Island.

Why Jen Rozenbaum’s Clients Are Shamelessly Feminine

April 23, 2015 by Seshu | Editor & Publisher

Jen Rozenbaum is a celebrated New York City boudoir photographer. Thanks to ShootDotEdit, she will be presenting a free webinar on the Art of Posing Women, on April 29th, 2015.

A little bit more about Jen – “Jen embraces her femininity while allowing women to embrace their own. In just five years, Jen has found a burgeoning audience in the intimate photography market. She proves that you can own your world if you live fearlessly, think audaciously, and act spontaneously. Jen has been featured in such places such as Good Morning America, AOL, and Entrepreneur Magazine.”

Being one of the best in the business, I wanted to find out more about the resurgence of boudoir photography in the last 10 years and her role in making it so popular among women. So we sat down and talked about it and also about her forthcoming free webinar on ShootDotEdit.

A Manifesto: 10 Habits of Successful Professional Photographers

February 12, 2012 by Seshu | Editor & Publisher

Christa Meola just wrapped up a three-day seminar on boudoir photography on CreativeLive. Did you catch any of it? I checked out her website and stumbled upon her manifesto. It's both for herself and other professional photographers. It is lucid and succinctly written. It's a quick read. I encourage you to download it.

“I wrote this Manifesto for pro’s and newbies alike. As professional photographers, we all need to be reminded of good habits from time to time. For those just starting out, it’s great to encourage wise habits from the beginning.”

The 10 Habits of Successful Professional Photographers:

1. I Know Myself, My Brand and My Client
2. I Value My Talent and Time
3. I Show Up With All That I Am
4. I Know My Gear Inside and Out
5. I Shoot With Intention
6. I Adapt
7. I Embrace Collaboration
8. I Exceed Expectations
9. I Sell Experience and Emotion
10. I Believe In The Power of Imagery To Change The World

Christa Meola | Exposed: Redefining BoudoirChrista travels internationally for commissioned projects and conducts photography workshops and mentorship programs for fellow professional photographers. She’s written a book on how to photograph women, EXPOSED: Redefining Boudoir that includes a chapter for guys too. Follow Christa on Twitter or connect with her on Facebook.

If you missed any of Christa's presentation at CreativeLive, you can buy The Boudoir Workshop by 12 pm EST tonight for $99. (nope, not an affiliate link) If you miss that deadline the price reverts to $149. From my experience with CreativeLive seminars, though, that is still a very good deal.
