All you need to know about 'GLAM-OIR' Photography...
"Glam-oir" in photography is a combination of glamour and boudoir photography styles.
Each style typically entails:
Glamour Photography: Focuses on highlighting the beauty, allure, and sophistication of the subject. It often involves polished and stylish poses, glamorous attire such as flowing gowns, ,skirts or cocktail dresses. Think about that gorgeous outfit you wore to that wedding years ago, and you’ve not had the opportunity to wear it again.
Boudoir Photography: Boudoir photography captures subjects in a private setting, often wearing lingerie or other sensual attire. It aims to celebrate the subject’s beauty and confidence in a tasteful and artistic manner. Giving a flirty and feminine look.
Glam-oir photography blends these two styles to create images that are glamorous, sensual, and artistic. Here are some key features of glam-oir photography:
Styling: Incorporates elements of glamour photography such as elegant outfits, makeup, and hair styling that enhance the subject's appearance.
Posing: Emphasizes poses that are flattering and highlight the subject's curves and features, often inspired by traditional boudoir poses but with a more glamorous and sophisticated twist.
Setting: Often takes place in a setting that combines the privacy and intimacy of boudoir photography with the elegance and style associated with glamour shoots. This could be a bedroom, air BNB or a studio setting designed to evoke a sense of luxury and sensuality.
Why would you choose to have a ‘Glam-oir’ Session?
For those ladies who are a little unsure of having just a Boudoir Session, and are perhaps a little shy about appearing in front of the camera wearing lingerie only, this session could be just what you’re looking for.
Starting off with the ‘GLAM’ component, your clothing would be more glamorous, perhaps even very formal. The posing would work in with your clothing choice , being more feminine and magazine looking.
You can even include some business style headshots if you want to update these for your website and socials.
Once the ‘Glam’ is over then the Boudoir would begin. By this time you will feel very confident in front of the camera and will be more than ready for the flirty, fun and sexy side of you to appear.
Overall, Glam-oir photography seeks to capture the beauty, confidence, and allure of the subject in a way that is both glamorous and intimate, blending elements of glamour and boudoir photography into a unique and artistic style.
