​Getting Nude / Boudoir Photos Taken – Better by a Man or a Woman? Female or Male Photographer?

​A nude or boudoir shoot is naturally a very intimate moment that goes far beyond an ordinary photo session.You might be asking yourself: Should I rather be photographed by a man or a woman? 

I have often discussed this with my female clients.Some women consciously choose a man because they hope he will have that special, non-judgmental eye for female beauty. They suspect they might be judged more critically by a woman. Others initially sought out female photographers specifically because they expected more empathy and a greater aesthetic understanding from them.

In the end, however, it always turns out: The gender of the photographer is secondary. What is decisive is the personality, the experience, the eye, and the sensitivity for people and beauty.Everyone brings a very unique personality, an individual perspective, and their specific artistic signature.

​What really counts is the experience. An experienced professional knows exactly how to set you in the best light and which poses are most advantageous. And because they have done this so many times before, dealing with your nudity is something completely natural.A boudoir/nude shoot is only great if you truly feel comfortable, safe, and respected. 

Trust is key. Therefore, look at reviews and testimonials to get a feel for the person behind the camera.Look at the photos. Do you like the way the light is set, the colors, the image composition, and the balance between aesthetics and eroticism? Technical perfection is secondary. A good photo inspires you immediately and is something you look at for more than just a second.

Trust your gut feeling and choose the person and artist whose work and personality convince you. Because that is what will define your shoot and your photos – not whether they are a female or a male photographer.
