Trending Bridal Boudoir Photography- Why You Should Take A Course

More likely, you've heard of bridal boudoir photography, but you might not be entirely sure what it is or why you should consider it. Maybe as a boudoir photographer, you offered bridal boudoir photography, but never received an inquiry for it. Well, bridal boudoir photography is a relatively new genre of boudoir photography that involves taking intimate, sensual, elegant, soft, and dreamy-like photos of brides-to-be in the weeks and days leading up to their wedding day or on the actual wedding day during the “Getting Ready” Phase.

Bridal boudoir photography courses are becoming increasingly popular as more and more photographers are looking to add this unique skill set to their repertoire. However, one thing that they are forgetting is that bridal boudoir is a niche boudoir photography genre. The photographer’s business model should either be directly related to brides such as, wedding photographer, or a big portion of their boudoir business focus should be bridal boudoir photography. In most cases, wedding photographer lands more bridal boudoir clients than fulltime boudoir photographers, because they offer bridal boudoir in their packages.

Regardless, bridal boudoir photography is a great marketable and profitable boudoir genre and here are the top 5 reasons why you should consider taking a bridal boudoir photography course:

1. It's a Unique Selling Proposition

In a market that's becoming increasingly saturated with photographers, it's important to have a unique selling proposition—something that sets you apart from the rest of the pack. Offering bridal boudoir photography services is a great way to do just that. If you are a wedding photographer, offering a bridal boudoir session to your bride will bring more value to your packages and will get you booked easier.

2. There's High Demand—and High Prices!

Bridal boudoir photography is still relatively new, which means there's a lot of demand for it but not a lot of photographers who know how to do it properly. As a result, photographers who offer these services can charge high prices—and they often do! Also, brides they spend lots of money on their wedding day, dress, venue, and flowers, which is not always fun and, in most cases, stressful. What they spend on the Bridal Boudoir session is just a smaller portion of their expenses but gives the bride the most relaxing time, and the groom will appreciate the final album more than anything else.

 3. It's Incredibly Intimate—and That's a Good Thing!

One of the best things about bridal boudoir photography is that it involves capturing incredibly intimate moments between a bride and her partner that hasn’t seen the bride yet. At the first look, the groom will see the bride in her beautiful wedding dress, but he/she has no clue about the surprise that is under the wedding dress. Not to mention that it is all captured in a sensual and intimate way, and will be presented to the groom in an elegant album.

4. You Can Be Creative!

When it comes to bridal boudoir photography, there are no hard and fast rules. This leaves ample room for creativity on your part as the photographer. You'll be able to let your artistic flair shine as you capture one-of-a-kind images for your clients. That being said, most brides are looking for a specific style, which is dreamy, bright, airy, and soft.

5. It leads to other boudoir sessions  

Above all else, bridal boudoir photography is just a warmup for other boudoir sessions. Once that groom receives an album as a wedding gift, the bride just set the expectation and will come back for another boudoir session every Valentine’s Day, and most likely will end up with a couple boudoir session or nude photography sessions. Bridal Boudoir Photography courses can help separate you from your competitors, there is a high demand for it, and it’s freaking profitable. Forget about the session fee. The profit you can gain just from the album is much much higher than the session fee. So, if you never considered it, start thinking about it.
