Welcome to the Art of Eros and our journey into the fascinating world of boudoir photography! Unless you’ve immersed yourself in the realm of photography, you might not have heard of boudoir photography, and it is for this reason we’ve decided to explore the topic a bit more.

What is boudoir photography? Well, it’s typically a type of photography that focuses on sensuality, beauty, and romance.


It involves taking artistic, intimate, and tasteful photos of people in boudoir settings. Typically, the person in the photos is almost always in lingerie or nude, although semi-nudes are popular too.


To put it simply, it is a photography style that captures the subject's beauty, personality, and self-confidence in a seductive and glamorous way.


HISTORY OF NYC BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY


As a woman, the familiar phrase “boudoir” brings forth visions of luxurious fabrics, soft lighting, and a slight air of mystery. This mostly forgotten French word has seen a resurgence in the early 21st century with the rise of boudoir photography.


At Art of Eros, we’ve perfected the art of sexy boudoir photography, turning it into a luxurious experience for women in New York City, NY, and beyond.


But how did we get here? Once defined as a woman’s private bedroom between the master bedroom and the dining room, the term “boudoir” has come to mean much more than that.


It all started back in the 1890s in France, when the term “boudoir” was used for the first time in regard to photography.


It was a major shift in the concept of boudoir and began a decades-long evolution of style, starting in the 1940s with the introduction of the notorious "pin-up" models. This was followed by a huge surge in the 1970s, as traditional drawings were slowly being replaced by photos in magazines.


Today, it’s a cultural phenomenon with a focus on creating beautiful and provocative boudoir photographs. At Art of Eros, we are proud to have been part of this evolution of boudoir photography.

Boudoir has enjoyed a particular resurgence in recent years, as more and more women embrace their sensuality in sometimes daring ways. From scantily clad lingerie images to nude poses, boudoir photography is an extremely versatile genre.
