When a Man loves a Woman....
MEN are now treating their partners to the boudoir experience!
The tables seem to have tuned and now we are finding men are treating their partners to the experience, as well women doing it for them! Men have cottoned on to the benefits of boudoir and we have seen a rise in men purchasing gift vouchers over the last few years.
When I’ve enquired about their motivation, it is often to help them boost their body-confidence and encourage them to see how truly beautiful they are, the way they see them. It is a celebration of the woman they love. Not forgetting that they’ll love the photographs too!
Some men join their partners on the day of the shoot, others leave them to it. It’s personal preference, but the men who do come along seem to really enjoy being there too. I often catch them smiling as they see their partners flourish in front of the camera. They also turn out to be really handy assistants, getting them into different outfits as well!
With the support of their partners, some women who may have never considered having a photoshoot before or believed they had the confidence to are enjoying the feel-good factor boudoir has to offer too!
here are 4 men who have done just that…
“I was initially looking for a way to empower my partner, provide her with the confidence that had been lost, and to wash away any anxieties or insecurities. I stumbled across Masque Photography and thought it ticked all of the above and more.
Tannia adored the whole experience and took it all in her stride, she felt rejuvenated upon leaving, with renewed confidence not only in body, but also in mind. I can't thank Helen and her team enough, continue doing what you do, and we'll see you again soon”

“I was looking for a 25th anniversary present that would be both memorable and push Julie out of her normal comfort zone. I came up with the idea of a boudoir shoot. After contacting Helen I was sure I'd made the right choice and purchased one of her lovely gift vouchers.
Upon receiving her voucher Julie was pleasantly surprised if a little apprehensive and promptly booked her shoot, followed by some lingerie shopping.
We both had a wonderful day in the studio with Helen and both agree it was a confidence boost, as well as a positive body image experience for Julie. We combined it with an evening out and hotel stay in Leeds and all in all we truly had a wonderful time and an anniversary weekend to remember!”

Gift vouchers are available to purchase directly through the website and are valid for 1-year.
“It's my wife’s 50th Birthday and I have been puzzling on how to mark that as she does not want a party or the like … She has started going to “boot-camp” and beginning to feel good about herself again since the birth of our youngest some 11 years ago and then having some health issues and so may be a bit camera shy, but that was not always the case.”
In truth, I was somewhat nervous about proposing this to her. At that moment in time, Kathy was wary in accepting the idea, but neither of us should have been, as with your skill and professionalism, the shoot lifted her self-esteem markedly.
I am glad we did it when we did as only weeks later, we were all locked down and the photos are a measure of what we can be when we get free.”

“Got a photo shoot as a gift for my girlfriend. Had a sneaking suspicion she would be shy at first, but would enjoy it in the long run. I love being right! Hahaha, she absolutely loved it and the resultant photos were stunning. It gave her a huge buzz and is much more body confident now.
As a bonus, I got a load of stunning pictures of my girlfriend to keep with me and we have a collection of the best ones printed out to keep and show her mates. Huge thumbs up for a fantastic experience and great value for money.”

But will she want to do it?
