In recent years, erotic photography has become the primary focus within boudoir photography. This shift from sensual to erotic photography is evident among many photographers, clients, and major film productions in Hollywood. As boudoir photographers, we must adapt to this shift and master the art of eroticism. Here are eight erotic poses that men and women absolutely love.

1. Open Legs

This pose is very interesting and erotic, with the subject opening her legs and offering a sexual gesture without showing her genitals. Even though this is an erotic pose, the principle of 'less is more' still applies.

2. Crossed Legs

In this erotic pose, the subject crosses her legs while nude, still covering her genitals. Depending on the angle, this pose can be less or more erotic. Adding additional elements, such as posing the arms or revealing the breast, can add more spice to the image.

3. Scissor Legs

This is the most erotic pose out of the three sitting positions because the subject reveals more without showing her privates. This pose is also very dynamic, as it creates multiple triangles in the leg area.

4. The Waterfall

This erotic pose is one of the least common ones used because it is not easy to achieve, but it’s a powerful pose. Since this pose is revealing, to add some elegance to it, it’s best to push the knee to the side to cover some areas of the privates. This pose is very dynamic and can be photographed from multiple angles. Keep in mind to photograph as quickly as possible to avoid blood rushing to the subject's head. Being in this erotic pose for too long can make the subject dizzy, tired, and can reveal veins in the forehead that are hard to remove in Photoshop. If the subject is not comfortable or capable of doing it, move on from it.

5. The “h”

In this erotic pose, we want to achieve an “h” shape with the body and legs and add two triangles with the arms to make the pose more interesting. A bossy look complements the pose well. What's important with this pose is to arch the back and position the hands softly. Unlike the previous pose, this pose can be achieved by any body type and form. What’s unique about this pose is that the privates are at the edge of being revealed, but they are not fully visible. Depending on your vision, you can reveal more or less by adjusting the height of the leg that is positioned on the couch or adjusting your angle.

6. The Teaser

This is one of the most used erotic poses, though it is often not executed elegantly. In this pose, the subject is pulling down her panties, jeans, or, in our case, fishnet tights halfway down her upper thighs. It’s important to pull down the tights to a point where we achieve a round booty shape to accentuate the curves; more or less will not have the desired impact. The second most important aspect to consider is the position of the camera. We aim to capture both arms, two curves of the booty, the breasts, and the beautiful arch of the back. Make sure to capture your closeups, medium shots, and full body shots with this pose.

7. The Sexy “M”

This is one of the hottest and sexiest erotic poses and can be modified in many ways depending on the emotions you want the viewers to have. In this pose, the legs are wide open in an “M” shape and the hand covering the privates. Creating an “M” shape will bring many triangles to the pose and makes it more interesting. The legs can be adjusted higher or lower to suggest different emotions. Also, in this pose, the position of the hand will have different emotional impacts. If the hand is on top of the tights, it says, “I will not let you have this”, but if the hand is inside the tights covering the privates, it suggests that the subject is pleasuring herself. Keep in mind that the facial expression must match the action and the desired emotional impact.

8. The Ultimate Arch

This erotic pose is always the top-selling pose, and every man and woman loves it. It’s one of the sexiest and most dynamic poses out there. Anyone can achieve this pose, and it’s easy to modify. This pose is very popular because it suggests the most favorable sexual position. However, by adding some triangles, we can make the pose both elegant and sexy. Pay attention to the position of the legs, feet, and hands. With this pose, we aim to achieve as many curves and triangles as possible. The arch of the foot, the booty, the arch of the back, and the breasts are all important curves to accentuate. For creating triangles, we position one knee forward, one leg bent, with hands relaxed and crossed, and elbows bent. Keep in mind that you should move the knee that is closer to the camera forward and push the booty slightly towards the camera to showcase two curves on the booty.

9. The Ultimate Triangle

This erotic pose is one of the easiest to achieve for any body type and is among the most sexually suggestive erotic poses available. In this pose, the subject's booty must face the camera, and the legs should be spread apart to create a large triangle between them. Photographing this pose from a lower angle and having the subject wear high heels will accentuate the legs and make them appear longer. The complete focus of this pose is on the legs and booty, emphasizing an obvious sexual gesture.

10. The Killer

There is no secret that this is the most suggestive, most popular, and most desirable erotic pose. Facial expressions and the position of the camera will have different impacts. This pose is best captured from the viewer’s POV (Point of View), and it always directly engages the viewer. For example, in the example image, the subject is looking directly at the camera with her lips slightly apart and in the action of moving forward towards the viewer. If you photograph this pose from behind and the subject is looking back at the viewer, it suggests a different desire. This pose can also be captured from a slightly higher angle with the subject looking at the camera, which evokes different emotions. Try to photograph this pose from multiple angles and experiment with it to achieve various outcomes.
