By May 14, 2010February 26th, 2019Workshops

I know we normally post this BEFORE our workshops start, but with the volcano and travel delays and everything else, I am a little behind. My apologies; but better late than never!  Here is some information on our awesome attendees from our Paris boudoir workshop, week 1. This isn’t everyone, but I wanted to post the attendees who I did have information on! If you are one of the Paris Workshop attendees, you can still send me your information and I will update this blog! Thanks again for all of those who attended!

City you represent: Dalgety Bay, Fife, Scotland
Your website: www.nikkimcleodphotography.com
How long you have been shooting boudoir: 5 years
Why you got into shooting boudoir: I enjoyed seeing the Divas work on DWF, and loved what their approach could do to woman who were insecure with their bodies. I hadn’t really much interest in portraiture until I had seen the Divas work, but this changed my mind!
Your favorite part of The Boudoir Divas workshop: the posing first of all was the most useful for me; positioning the girls to get the best out of their bodies was a real lightbulb moment! I also enjoyed the marketing, being shown the different styles of lighting; actually everything was useful! I have 7 pages of a word document of notes to digest, and several hundred images to process!

Why you got into shooting boudoir: To encourage women to celebrate their bodies and see how beautiful they really are.
Your favorite part of The Boudoir Divas workshop: The whole workshop was really excellent…if I HAD to pick my favourite bit it would have to be…the strawberries and nutella combo! – no seriously, although that was good, it would have to be hearing and watching the BD’s instructing the models to pose, and then after having an opportunity to practice them one-t-one with the models themselves.
