This Film Noir Boudoir was a birthday gift for her husband! This was so much fun to photograph because there was a bit of an editorial element to it- as if they were acting out different scenes of a story. Funny enough, she doesn't actually smoke but she wanted to do an image with her smoking in the foreground with messy hair and him laying in bed in the background- suggesting a very classic Hollywood scene. The hardest part was getting the perfect stream of smoke to come out of her lips without covering her face or getting too far away from her lips! I think everyone who's done a boudoir session with me can attest to the fact that it's more work than they thought it was going to be - but the results are always AWESOME.... of course, I may be just a BIT biased, HA!! ;)
